I like FaceBook. Especially for the nightclub I work at...it's a great way to inform people of upcoming specials and events.

Facebook? never heard of it.

Apparently 3-4 people on my list deleted their account, including a girl I was trying to date.

Hah!

And now I notice my ex-girlfriend deleted me from her list.

I hate Facebook now

I just deactivated my account, I don't see the point in having it! it is ending up all orgers just like myspace, one is enough. I had it to find IRL friends, but I can't even find any on there

JustErin said:

Exactly! Seems better for old friends. Very easy to find school friends on that site, whereas I had only a few on myspace. I ignore all that zombie, super wall, drinks, gifts crap and it's all very nice and straightforward. A few pics, posting comments, decent privacy options, and less of the spam and weirdness of myspace.

ZombieKitten said:

I know what you mean, although I did find 50+ odd old school friends on there. But, I am a bit wary of adding all the orgers I had on myspace. I ended up deleting my myspace account because it was just all too much. Really, I can just interact with most orgers here.

ZombieKitten said:

I just logged on now and noticed you gone glad you've still got MySpace though...

I know what you mean, I guess I'm lucky on both there's the majority are friends and family or acquaintences I already know

as I say, glad you've still got MySpace

Fauxie said:

I agree. I won't add Orgers unless they want to come looking to 'befriend' me. The only exception I make is to those Orgers I've actually met and are friends with.

Fauxie said:

You did? shows how much I pay attention to Myspace. Though an old school mate of mine found me on Myspace last week. She lives in Florida still and wanted to meet up...well I informed her that she contacted me a week too late...

I was always reluctant to join Facebook until a close friend of mine decided to travel and would only communicate through it. So last week I created an account and now i've been able to contact people that I haven't spoken to in about 7 years! That's my reason for joining. I don't care about all the games and clubs.

I did. Thing is, I'll start a new one at some point but not be so keen to add people. I feel mean about it sometimes, but I really want it for just a few people, not that many of them orgers. My aunt and uncle are on there, so I'd go there for that, plus Deron, who's a very sporadic orger these days. It'd be nice to keep it down to maybe 20.

I see you've got a Facebook.

Fauxie said:

yes but I do not do much on it..maybe I will try to look up some old friends.

Can someone please explain to me what poke means .

Serious said:

not sure really...

shanti0608 said:

You are not that helpful dear .
Okay let's say I search for a name and want to check the profile to find out if the person I am looking for is the right one and not just someone else that goes by the same name. How can I view the profile? And what happens if I poke that person ?

Serious said:

I am sorry

I do not know that much about Facebook really.
I am sure someone here knows.

shanti0608 said:

I don't know anything either. I have an account and 4 friends and have never used it .

You poke someone and if they poke you back you can see their normally private page for a certain amount of time.

JustErin said:

Thank you.
So that means that normally all profiles are private and when you poke somebody he may allow you to see his page for some time?

Serious said:

Pages are not automatically private but most people set their settings so that they can control who sees their page.

But ya, you have to be poked back to be able to access their page, even then...they might have their settings set to a limited profile, meaning you still might not be able to see everything until you become friends.

Sweeny79 said:

I would but I don't do facebook

Sweeny79 said:

I bet you have at least 2 more by the time you get home today.

shanti0608 said:

add me.


I can't gaurantee that I'll be much of a facebook friend though cause that shit sucks ass.

I like the events platform in myspace better, and the customizations far better. Hell, I like tribe better than facebook even.

But some of my old military friends told me about facebook so there I am. I haven't found but one of them yet though


Why can't the org just be upgraded to be that way? Then Rupert Murdock better watch his ass!

JustErin said:

When someone has a myspace profile set to private I can at least see parts of the profile so that I can find out if the person is the one I am looking for or is worth checking out or not. On facebook I hardly have any info about that person unless I contact this person. IMO that really sucks . I guess I won't use facebook too much...

Serious said:

Facebook is ALL about actually contacting people, it's not about spying on someone you might know - like it sounds myspace is like.

I didn't even know that about myspace. I thought pages set to private were totally private. I never go on there. I should just delete my account.
