I'm not going to help people get rich just by me joining something. Fucking Trip. Where's my rebate check for joining this shitty forum?

FB sucks now because even if you have someone hidden, if someone else you know comments on their stuff you still see it. You can't actually hide people anymore. Unfortunately I've made a bunch of enemies this past year and I don't have any desire to deal with their crap.

So I wonder why millions of members who have been on it for years keep staying even though according to you it's impossible to have a positive experience with it

And good luck finding people with common background by flipping thru the phone book. Who the hell is listed in a phone book nowdays anyway?

I'm less interested in this topic and your rant and more interested in this. Which BBS software did you help fucking make? I used to run some midnight boards years ago in college. I've been around since the days of my Atari 400 w/accoustic coupling 300 baud modem and echo net. Used to incite flame wars with people before trolling was ever a term. lol

Who else here was into ANSI art?

Not if you block them vs. just hiding them. You won't see their shit, and they won't see your shit, even if you're both posting on mutual friends' stuff.

I like it as a place to keep in touch with people, cuz I suck at that, but I rarely post anything other than pictures and an email from time to time.

It drives me insane to see the crap that people put on there tho, I dont CARE that you are a 35 year old woman obsessed with Twilight who has to update every 30 seconds, I dont need to know everytime your kid pulls themselves up on a new piece of furniture, or that you arent getting out of bed because you're a lazy ass...and the list goes on...

Who said anything about finding people with a common background in a phonebook? You are facebook material aren't you? Probably shop at walmart too.. mfp.. The point of the phone book is for old "friends" to find you there flapjack not to social network.. Go drink your kool aid and get a swine flu vaccination.. the finding people with a common background is what something like this forum is for - and without all the bullshit of facebook..

Ever heard of Mnet? Probably not. All I can say is Mnet and Red Ninja. Other than that its classified. If you have been around as long as you say then you can fill in the blanks. I think you were catching the wave awhile after I was already on the beach though.
