Deleted my Facebook
Sir James A:
Eh, 99% of the time I hide / ignore political stuff. 75% of my news feed is swords, armor, or something medieval. The rest is family, cats, philosophical pictures, or just funny stuff. If someone or a group of people proves problematic, address it, unfriend them, or hide their posts. I don't have to care or agree with what someone's political stance on whatever the hot topic of the week/month is to say "OMG nice armor/sword!".
Justin:
I can't really fault you for deleting your Facebook account. FB has become a place full of spite and drama. People make Facebook seem a lot more serious that it actually is, which is a little sad. Thankfully, you can fine tune your settings to avoid those that annoy you.
Sir Dimitry:
Most of my friends have the same views as I do. And those that don't, we can have very heated discussion (with some name calling at times) but then agree to disagree. I make it a point to not friend people i don't want knowing my business (like people at work)
I have deleted people for things I find offensive. Hell, *I* can be offensive. I've mostly blocked people from my feed that I did not want to unfriend because I was tired of hearing about their effing cat or how great their run was that day... The self aggrandizing (LOOK AT ME!!!) on FB is what bugs me more than anything. Did something you're proud of? Awesome! Post away. Hearing EVERY DAY that you ran 4 miles or your cat did that cute thing for the 718th time... Sorry that's just pathetically fishing for compliments.
Sir Edward:
I know what you mean. I blocked a friend a while back when he was posting reviews of every restaurant and business he went to. When this starting including the local McDonald's, for example, I was pretty much done. :)
I mean, of course the whole point is to share what's going on in your life. But it gets tiresome when the person posts nothing of interest to you, because it's the same thing over and over.
Sir Wolf:
is that why you never talk to me anymore? you blocked me Ed? lolol jkjk
