Question of the Day, June 2, 2010



Despite the outcry surrounding Facebook's questionable privacy policies, Quit Facebook Day flopped in a big way. Would you quit Facebook? Why or why not?

There's no option for never had one like me.

 

[Chrono212]

Needs an 'eventually' option, because at the moment I need it for the sports team I'm in but I don't use it religiously

 

[TheMonkeySlayer]

There's no option for never had one like me.

Just what I was about to say.

 

[HK_01]

Need option for never even had Facebook account.

inb4 everyone "OH I DON'T USE IT, DIDN'T YOU KNOW"

OT: It's a horrible, flawed site, but it's essential for keeping in touch with people, for me at least.

 

[Deofuta]

I guess I quit, I go on about once a month for things like class messages and such...

 

[El Poncho]

Same! We are pure!;P

I don't like this poll at all. I have a user in Facebook and i play Mafia wars, it's fun in a way. But i don't use it for socializing or such, at least not much. So basically , my answer would be : Yes, i would leave, if i wanted to, or if there was a good reason.

 

[xdgt]

No, because I never joined. And I never will.

 

[The Blue Mongoose]

There's no answer for: "Yes, I would. But not yet."

I use it to stay in touch with my Youth Group and Acting buddies.

 

[Blanks]

I don't think i'd quit it because I use it to contact people from time to time but it's not like i need it or my life depends on it =/

 

[Jared]

Im on it...But, Im hardly on it. Its just tghere to say...well, its there

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Already did. If you need to tell me something, e-mail me, damn it.

 

[Plinglebob]

The only reason I use it is because Facebook e-mails are the only way I can get an answer from some of my mates and I also use it as my band leader sometimes puts notes up that I need to know. Other then that, I don't use it.

This poll lacks the option for "I never started using Facebook and consider social networking itself to be a stupid fad that I refuse to partake in". If I ever had started using The Facebook though, which is a big if as I would have had to have taken leave of my senses, but assuming I had, I would have quit using it entirely once their new "privacy policies" came about, and so should you. Seriously, The Facebook is evil.

 

[Jamash]

I would if they let me, for now I'll just have to be content with never logging in or using my account and ignoring all the Facebook generated e-mails and spam messages.

I rue the day I made that account.

 

[Lizardon]

This poll lacks the option for "I never started using Facebook and consider social networking itself to be a stupid fad I refuse to partake in".

That neatly sums up my opinion of Facebook, Twitter etc.

 

[brunothepig]

How about just when it becomes necessary? There's all sorts of crap going around about them wanting to make them pay. If they do then facebook can go away. I liked myspace better anyway, it was easier too. But everyone flocked to facebook, so now I gotta use it to keep in touch.

 

[Flames66]

I effectively have, I never update my page and have over 20 invites for people who met me somewhere five years ago or something like that. I have no interest in it so I don't go on it.
