    I temporarily deactivated my account. Either a grandchild of his may be playing in his account, not sure, but one of my relatives is really acting weird. Constantly deleting me and 1 month later, asking me and my Aunt back as friends. He drops his own kids and asks them back. I have posted about him before and I asked you guys if you think it is FB (and not him) asking me back. Also, "sickbook" would be a better name. My relatives are constantly posting "bobby has a fever today and blah blah blah..." and all the responses are the same, get well wishes. so if you read the news feed and it's five ppl with colds, wow what a hot news flash! BTW, I've never seen anything as petty as constant updates with their every move (you guys often use the toilet as the example.)
    No it's not that bad...

    I've never thought of Facebook as a way to contact old school friends etc. I just use it to keep in contact with our friends and family who are all over the place. Used properly it's brilliant. Of course there are a number of dickheads and few unnecessary comments but that's no different to this place.

    It doesn't freak me out. Of course there are all the stories about privacy but people have to use common sense. It is what you make it.

    I was persuaded by friends to join face book before I went travelling.I did and within 4 hours deeply regretted it when I checked my emails and had friends requests ++++++++++++
    I closed the account ... which was harder than finding hen's teeth ... and never went back ... it is truly evil and it did indeed freak me out.

    friend requests were negative? I don't understand.
