I love facebook. Our local quilt shop posts pics, classes, etc there. AND my kids are always on there so I feel connected to them and in their loop :) I skip any drama anywhere!

I am on facebook A LOT!!!! However I do not have people on my facebook that I do not KNOW and that are not an active part of my life! my brothers ex girlfriends little sister for instance is NOT on my facebook! lol

My thoughts on drama!
Isn't it funny how people say they're tired of the drama & stress from people, yet they are the ones who are creating it.
It seems that A LOT of people have A LOT to say reguarding other peoples lives; it's my opinion that people should just mind their business.
Maybe if everyone would mind their own dang business we wouldn't have the problem of drama!

I either "hide posts" or delete folks who have a drama problem.

Same here.

FB is what u make it. or what u allow it to become. It can be a time hog, or siimply a way of staying in touch. I played the games, but have long since burned out on them. I had friends that had multiply accts just so they could pkay more games!!I tend to visit once every few days. I rarely post. I have narrowed the fields to ppl , I am truely wanting to talk to and hear from. Offensivness, drama, crap, it's all a matter of adjusting ur settings. Poof they are gone. smile

I just love it when someone puts all there business all over FB and then YELLS at people for being nosy and getting into their business! They're the ones who made it everyone's business, aren't they?

I deleted mine a few weeks ago. Found I was not into all the small talk and trivia.
