I have finally survived a week without Facebook!

I temporarily deleted my Facebook account and had the entire week not feeling any urge to open it and check what's new with it. Sometimes, facing Facebook the entire day could be soooooo boring! Agree?

I do agree with you. I very seldom log on to my facebook account since I joined mylot. And I am glad I have controlled my addiction in facebook games now that I was not playing any of those games ^^

Hurrah to us! :) I have missed playing Tetris Battle and Guess the Sketch though but I can always reactivate to play again but this time, without the addiction that I barely have the right amount of sleep and rest. :D

I am playing Mafia Wars, Farmville, Pet Society, YoVille, The Sims Social, CityVille, Words with Friends(still playing this one coz it's not a demanding game^^), and I don't know if I have forgotten any other games So now I don't play it anymore but hve not removed it permanently, I am sure about myself not to play those games anymore.

I am a regular facebook user, for checking my friends and love ones status and posts. I always post inspirational thoughts. And because of this interesting mylot activity, I am not the whole day I'm in the facebook. I am now dividing my time and learning more here, loving more now here. :))

That's a great news for you myrnz626. This is not just a diversional activity for me, so as not to focus my entire time in Facebook but it's great how more interactive can we be here in Mylot, and in addition, we learn more than just posting and liking comments. Here, we meet a lot of strangers than our friends and loved ones, but these people give us great advice like those who are close to us and unimaginable as it may be, it really feels good to be here, learning, sharing and earning all at the same time! Have a great day!

Wow! I salute you for surviving! I think i cant do that because i used to check on my classmates update on our classes so that i could be updated on the happenings on our school. Maybe i could do that for 2-3 days? But not a week. Haha

Well, I will salute you for a 2-3 day survival too, that's never easy for addicted people. :)) And that's good about Facebook, people can just tag homeworks, assignments and projects on their pages. :))

I can tell you that I am addicted to Facebook. for me it's strange if I can not go here and can not write but you just have to go. Facebook for me is something uninteresting now nothing has been just one interesting and works well. but for you as it was boring without facebook is unfortunate because you cried with him and I know how you feel. but now you can enjoy it. nice day and may no longer have such problems.

All my friends are facebook addicts, I don't get what's so great about it. How can you simply log on and stay on it for hours? I actually don't have a facebook and my friends keep urging to get one. They say it's more convenient when they plan an outing and they can simply send me a tag or something instead of having to call me about an event I'm not into those social networking and trying to compete with others based on how many friends can you get. One of my friends asked anotehr friend of hers to change her facebook password. Her friend changed it and next thing you know she forgot the password. Now my friend can never access her facebook account. All those 700 friends all gone and her pictures. She's not angry but she goes it's better as she isn't as addicted and she doesn't access at school.

You can always revive your password through the email address. Facebook is sending it to your email when you forget it. ;) That's good to know that your friend didn't even try to revive it nor made another account! :) Having no FB account in the first place is way better than having an account and leaving all the posts, photos and friends. ;)

i agree, facebook has nothing new. some people also they are expressing their feeling through their facebook account. some of them they are talking other people lifes and some of them exploding secrets. But sometimes facebook is good too coz some of families they are looking their relatives on facebook and meet each other.So its a good communicating though either.

I know right, Facebook is like the worldwide directory where people can instantly search for some infos and a photo pops out for you to be certain if that's the right person you're looking for! :) But yes, it is sometimes BORING. :)

Hi Gaga, I agree with you. I actually never quite got into facebook all that much. It's cool and all and I'll get on their to communicate with people I may not otherwise see. I randomly get on there. I like it but I'm not on there every day and I have never gotten into the games etc. I know people that are addicted to it and all the drama that goes on there.

I am not a facebook addict. I don't see any good reason to stay in facebook for a longer time. I only check friends messages and also check my family updates and that's all. I can do a lot with earning sites than wasting my time with facebook.

I do agree with you Jaiho, Facebook is my niche for my photos that can only be viewed and shared to my loved ones. Facebook has been earning so much from us and we aren't paid a single cent with it..

Good for you! Facebook can be really addicting. I don't think I could ever delete mine unless something else became more popular since I keep in touch with so much family on there. Plus I love showing things off like pictures and everything...It's just easy on Facebook since everyone is there. Seriously though, kudos to you for getting through it. I don't think I could. I felt so relieved when I deleted my Myspace a couple years ago.

My entire family and friends are all there too and I also love posting pictures to share to them, but I just think I need the time to lie low with my time using Facebook. I was really addicted to it that I couldn't do anything productive. LOL. Maybe I'll be reactivating it soon but will only be limiting my time with it. :) Thumbs up for your Myspace deletion and feeling relief with it. :)

I do agree. Being here in mylot is more fun than being in Facebook. I was a Facebook addict ones. I enjoyed the games and applications they have created that no other social networking sites has. Until I learned that you can actually earn online. Now I barely visit my Facebook account. I think being here in mylot and other money making sites are more worth of my time than playing with games all day without earning a penny. :)
