HERE's my problem > I've been ed @ MANY TIMES by dear friends etc… to just get a Face Space


My reply > No Thanks


I have NO problem w/ anyone ELSE using it or the whole site PERIOD it's just NOT something I feel I NEED.


The argument came to surface yesterday when a VERY GOOD said if you had one then you'd know how all your friend's are doing.

My reply > the people I care bout and give a $hiet how I am DO know how I'm doing and visit VersiE

Phone Text , E mail , Snail mail Cards ( like's olsk00l smoke signals ) and yeah s2ki which IS my FS


Last complaint > when someone says that from what they SEE on someones FB that RIGHT THERE is TO ME not communicating its like lurking just don't like that idea and AGAIN thats just ME

so the next time someone TELLS me to get on there I'll just direct them to this tread


:stepsdownfromsoapboxaccordigly:

If you had posted this on Facespace, more people would have seen it.

I totally get it G :hugs:

It should be noted that with FB you can control who sees what you do or share; you can set it up so others can't easily tag you (requires approval), and using filters/lists you can limit who sees certain things (e.g. excluding coworker acquaintances from seeing your checkin at the golf course while you're out "sick" ).

IG is all or nothing. Don't recall if you or PITA have your profiles private, but if not, they're 100% open. I just had some random girl from Russia go through and a dozen of my pictures. A bit odd... but that's why I limit what I put on IG. Actually, what I put on IG is mostly for PITA, since she's the only one who won't see them on FB.

Also... my favorite people are the ones who whine about FB privacy/security and then post everything Public.

I sort of disagree, I think it serves its purpose. I don't use the entire site per say. I like their messenger function. I tend to spend more time on my laptop and find swapping between my phone and laptop annoying. the messenger app keeps everything on one device.

The only thing I really use my newsfeed for is to read some of those "30 amazing things that you NEED to do" articles when I'm bored + watch a few car videos people post.
