Guest chax Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-willma...t_b_175358.html Facebook used to be so good, I enjoyed "connecting" with people and posting on their walls, posting photos for my friends, and finding events and stuff...but since they changed everything to be more like Twitter, the site has become an absolute abortion. No control over anything +forced ads everywhere, people updating their 'status' every 15 minutes, just totally retarded, no customization of views or the livefeed, just pure shit. Everyone on the site hates it, all my friends hate it, there's over 500,000 people who have all said they hate it. Will facebook actually do anything and listen to its users and pretend to care? Nope... There are tons of petitions and stuff to bring back the old facebook but I thought it would be cool to take it a step further...THE FACEBOOK SUICIDE PACT! I created an event encouraging everyone to delete their accounts on March 27th if Facebook didn't change back to how it was. There were thousands of people invited, 300 people signed up and were ready to do it, I was hoping to get mainstream media attention etc. THEN facebook decided that I somehow "violated their terms of service" and deleted my account and the event. The Facebook suicide turned into homicide :D I know they won't go back to the old version, but overall it really is the downfall of the site. I did enjoy using it while it was good. Oh well RIP Facebook Oct 28 2003 - Mar 13 2009 Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/43746-facebook-is-now-absolute-garbage/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest zaphod Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 there was an article in fortune about how zuckerberg wants to turn facebook into the next "cell phone". that scares me. anyway the fact that the site's first bit of venture capital came from peter thiel was enough to keep me away from it.

Guest assegai Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 I should have been born earlier, damn this facebook generation!

Guest assegai Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 I think you should embrace and adapt, by blogging everything little thing you do and have it appear on everyone's main page.

I'd imagine if I deleted FB I'd be excommunicated from the social pipeline.

perunamuusi Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 mmm if only there was some way i could voluntarily log all my personal details, contacts, daily activities, personal communications etc onto some massive public database....or failing that, maybe there could be someway that enabled other people to some how connect my identity to old photographs that somebody else has uploaded so i could be plastered all over the database against my will in some kind of fun bizarre invasion of privacy... now that would be amazing and just the sort of thing i would happily spend any spare time i have doing. in fact.... if there was somehow i could do all this while away from my computer, that would be perfect... if only someone would invent a small hand held object that contains complete audio visual surveillance equipment and some kind of global positioning recognition system that i could take everywhere i go .... eventually my whole life could be logged in some big really cool database... also it would be cool if you could .... i dunno.... "poke"? people on it as well somehow.... that would be so the best thing ever. ultimately it could replace the utterly pointless activity of real face to face human interaction and eye contact . then again... what if all this was true and it was all really fab but then one day in a couple of years, they change some graphicl aspect of the layout...that would really upset me and i would probably feel like crying about it all over some gay idm forum Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/43746-facebook-is-now-absolute-garbage/#findComment-984000 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Benedict Cumberbatch Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 yeah it sucks nowand its damn slow too. i get a "unresponsive script" error. its been reported for awhile that they werent making the money they projected from advertising so i guessed drastic changes are coming. trying to copy twitter is cheap though. remember when myspace went all facebook? you got to have confidence in your model and stick to it. people hate change. and this change is pure awful. when they last update they had a button that let you view the old homepage, not seen it this time. this is as bad as the new vs old boomkat homepage Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/43746-facebook-is-now-absolute-garbage/#findComment-984019 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCM Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 I closed my account and manually deleted all my content last year and it was mysteriously re-activated a couple of months ago and all the stuff i deleted was back. i fucking hate facebook. I'm going to remove everything from my account again tonight and send facebook an email telling them to fuck off and leave me the fuck alone.

encey Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 It is slow. But I use it to post pics, keep a beer journal and share links, so the format they have switched to is great for all that.
