MFP vs Facebook

4x4play

I use to get onto FB all the time and riffle thru all the nonsense that my friends post but recently I have become addicted to MFP! This is the place that I spend all my time. Every now and then I go back to FB and I usually have a bunch of notifications that I have missed due to being on MFP. Just wondering if MFP has replaced FB for anyone else??

Well Twitter replaced Facebook and i wouldnt say MFP has topped it yet but i've been on here more as of late...i think the thing thats great about MFP and Twitter is the anonymity; Facebook is full of nosy classmates, coworkers and distant relatives

TaintedVampyre

Totally guilty!

bahsukh

Same here. If FB ceased to exist, it certainly wouldn't bother me......

Same! Hope nobody invested in FB stock! It was bound to shift over into more specific social networking at some point. Facebook is the initial melting pot but I'm realizing it's too broad and randomly dumb for my liking. Was thinking of deleting my account... Haven't used it for quite some time since MFP! And if I ever miss it, if you sign in again, I was told your account will just pop back up like it was cryogenically frozen in the www.

MFP has completely overtaken my FB account...I only log in once a few days...

This IS my facebook. I deleted facebook because of all the petty drama my friends like to cause on there. This serves a purpose and you meet new and interesting people. THAT'S what I like....people around here are completely LAME (meaning my "friends") lol.

for the most part. i still use facebook but not like i use mfp. mfp is much more entertaining

HiKaren

I never really liked FB... But I Love MFP! Yeah!

MFP is much better. I absolutely hate FB because of the people posting crap just for the attention. They should rename it to Attention Seeking Book.

I'm on MFP a whole hell of a lot more than I am on Facebook. Reason being is I'm so involved and invested in my lifestyle change and this forum suits me better. I like being on here with like-minded folks as opposed to Facebook. I haven't made many "friends" on here but I didn't have many on Facebook, either. Still, this is so much better for me.

If nothing else, the pics are different here than on FB, huh?

YEP!!!
I had 99 notifications the other day...

I just have more fun here.

MooMooooo

Yes, this site has replaced fb for me.

This is fun, has a wall and also has the forum section (which fb doesn't have)

I feel safer talking about more private things on here, with people who don't know me in real life.

MFP is def winning my time. All of my IRL friends are done with hearing about fitness or nutrition from me. Some are just bored with it and some are NOT as thrilled with my weight loss as I am...for various reasons, I guess. But it is truly my #1 priority right now and it's nice to have people who get that. And appreciate it, and contribute, and encourage.....I could go on and on...

It would be nice if you all were local as well...sometimes my computer is a poor substitution for real life, in person, fun.

I do both. I am a total social networking *kitten*. :bigsmile:

I used to live on FB, but now I just check in to chat with one friend a few times a week. Otherwise, I am always on MFP.

dhiannon

I use both Facebook and MFP. I must admit the last two weeks I have spent more time on here then I have on fb.
I am sick of the attention seeking, *****ness, cryptic status messages. I find the people on here are usually working towards the same goal and its about real feelings and thoughts not just so they can get compliments etc.

I dont think I have made a friend on here yet that I have regretted (although its early days)

I totally love MFP and invite you all to add me if you like

LadyGhostDuchess

I have two windows open. one for MFP and one for FB lol

PunkyRachel

Agreed! I'm on here more than my Facebook, now

pxpwop

This is much more useful than Facebook. At least killing time here is helping others, motivating, learning and on occasion just having fun. FB is pretty much just a fabulous waste of time. Having said that, I do love Facebook lol

chlorisaann

I am still on FB to play a couple games, but yeah I spend MUCH more time on MFP!!!

Kitten2629

I play on both

DestroyTheOpposition

This is my FB. I still go on there... but MFP is just so much more helpful and interesting.

Krizzo87

I'm rather addicted to all you awesome people!! :drinker:

RedHeadDevotchka

Oh this site wins hands down. When I post on Facebook anything health related, meh, no one cares. Here, you get a wtg!! Or something motivational like that. Love the support!

angelalf1979

Yep! Me too!! On here way more than FB now and totally abandoned my Draw Something app. Traded it in for MFP and exercise
