Im not very social, so only sometimes for family and friends, mostly for updates on band tours, game/tech news and release dates.

Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.

As I get older I get angrier more cynical, meaner. I feel some warning posts coming. I feel a ban coming. I was warned.

I check it to keep up on some of the games, shows, and Explosm comics, as well as talking to friends and family.

I use it to stalk people (what? I'm a stalker-ish person!), to keep up with recent things and to keep up on classmates. I rarely post anything, though.

 

I'm rather unsocial so no-one ever contacts me, and when I rarely post anything, my posts sound/look/feel dumb for other people. Oh and people just add random people (even unknown ones) to their friends lists and thus have +300 "friends"? Even they all avoid me.

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.

The only time I use Facebook is when I need to 'like' something to get a freebie; I've received booze, condoms, t-shirts and dvds to name but a few.

I used to use it to keep in touch with friends and family, but I realized that meeting them in person was just as effective and had the benefit of a UI that didn't suck.

I completely agree except for friends that live in other countries. They're the ones I talk to online :) (including Facebook)

 

I rarely talk to my friends in the country I live in online.

PROFILEYEAH

What do people even put in these things?

I'm glad I'm not the only one who does not use Facebook.

 

Was getting worried that it was just me and the OAPs.

I had one for a while but it was pointless. I deleted it mostly because the majority of the people I was friends with were people I didn't talk to or frankly cared about. The people I did care about I talked to, texted, or saw on a regular basis so Facebook was nothing more than a way to see random shit they reposted.

I just use FB for tech news from manufacturers and sometimes communicating with friends/family.

Given that 80% of people on here use Facebook, it makes the Oculus reaction look fucking pathetic.

 

People are dumb.

Other: It jumped the shark.

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.
