I neeeeed it for socialising. Too many of my friends have it for me not to use it.
We all used to have Myspace, then that lost its touch.
Then we all got Bebo, but then because of all that hoo-ha about it maybe getting shut down, a lot of people just moved onto Facebook.

Need fourth option on "Never had it and never will"
Would be funny if this went on for 2 pages with most of them saying the same, nearing 1 page with it already^^

I'd have to say only if there was another social networking option that everyone was flocking to. Social networking sites are a fantastic place to promote for music events, which is what I use my facebook page for. Used to use myspace, but they've dumbed it down so much, made it an irritating process to post shows on band pages, and just made it look plain ugly. Also, inviting people to events, you have to do it one at a time. So in almost every sense, facebook is cleaner and easier to use, and it's where everyone is quickly going. Until something better comes out, I'm stuck.
I use it way too much to just quit. My friends and I use it to keep in touch even though we're scattered all over the country and to plan events.
Only if there was another a better social networking option. I just use it to talk to my friends.
Well said. Facebook isn't always the shit people make it out to be. Sometimes I wonder if it's just another form of stupid elitism.Owlslayer said:
I've got Facebook, I play a browser game through it and it's good to keep track of social stuff. But I've only got 39 "friends" where most of my friends have hundreds, so I'd hardly call myself addicted or even there purely for the socialisation.
No more hate on Facebook, please.
Personally, I'm on facebook nearly everyday. I'm almost always guarunteed one of my closest friends will be on, and theres some nice games on it, also people post pictures i can look at and comment on. In my opinion i think its a great site for communicating with friends and family... but it IS flawed in some ways, I have to admit.
Wow. This poll is a good question but the choices are messed up. I like facebook but it isnt my life or anything. the poll options look like whoever wrote them doesn't like facebook at all.
There's no option for "I wouldn't quit facebook (unless they went batshit crazy and requested naked photos or something like that), but I could live without it"
Already did. Friends expect you to check it all the time when you have it. (Watch the South Park episode about it for a good laugh if you know people who are on Facebook too much)
I used it for a few months, but after a short while I realized it's incredibly boring, and I honestly couldn't give a shit what my friends were up to. Their lives aren't nearly as interesting as they'd like to believe.
