Facebook - Who DOESN'T Use It?

[Chris]

I just deleted my account, well it takes 2 weeks for them to delete it, I wasn't a big user anyway but I just got sick of it basically, logging in just to see a 'friend' that I haven't seen since school (LOL which was a long time ago) write on their wall that they just had a coffee or aren't feeling well or they are at some bar somewhere. Seriously, think about it, how pathetic have things become?

Just wondering if many other people think the same or, as I imagine, am I in the minority?

Never have never will. I had a myspace, but an ex kept hassling me, so I deleted it.
I don't have friends so a social platform like this has little appeal to me.*



*I do have friends just they are IRL.

I value privacy way too much to ever have it.

I don't have it and I'm 14

I had for a couple of weeks,Ex hacked my account,she absolutely did everything possible to bad mouth and screw me over, I couldn't prove it,I closed account,never go near it again.

I had an account, but the novelty wore off after a few months. Everyone posing for pics of themselves and uploading them as if they were famous and all that.
I also try to keep different aspects of my life separate such as groups of friends, work colleagues, and so on. Therefore having a FB account was like putting everything personal into a newspaper about me that they all could read. I like having a buffer between social groups as I don't share everything with all of them. I don't want my worlds to collide!

I dont see whats wrong with it, since many of my friends live in Dubai its a great way for me to talk to them, otherwise we'd lose touch. Call me pathetic but I dunno what I'd do without it.

Funny thing is email has actually become a thing of the past, none of my friends use it! Plus FB chat is instant so its easier to have a conversation instead of write a huge thing and wait for a reply

good on ya

i dont use it but if you do i dont mind better off keeping in touch than losing friends

 

[notechistiger]

Facebook has allowed me to keep in touch with many family members and old friends that don't have msn (checking a website every now and again is easier then downloading a program that none of your other friends use, imo). Facebook is a very powerful social media tool also.

 

[CrystalMoon]

Hmmmm I didnt have it, now do.... Do I need it? no probably not.... I did suspend it for awhile(Ex drama) I dunno
I just kinda like it....although I dont generally use it to mark my toilet or coffee breaks lol

My mother has recently got back in contact with a man she went to high school with about 35 years ago. They've been out about 5 or 6 times since then, they may never have found each other again if it weren't for facebook. I've made friends with a lady in San Francisco and we have great chats over facebook. The thing I don't like is how easy it is to make a new account, which also relates to how easy it is to make a new email account. I've dealt with heaps of trolls over facebook, they'll get their account disabled and then they'll be back 5 minutes later with a new one and the trolling starts all over again. :x A discussion board of a group I'm on has been disabled for months because of how bad the trolling was, and it didn't help that the group was 35 million + people and it wasn't moderated. Don't know who's stupid idea that was!

 

[timantula]

[Joemal]

Not pathetic, Snakeluvver - unless I'm pathetic too! I have it because it's a good way to keep in touch with family and friends around the world. A lot of my family aren't big writers so I wouldn't know anything about them if they didn't post on Facebook occasionally.

I'm selective with my friends, don't post dumb status updates and have pushed my privacy settings as high as they can go. I've had no problems.
