There are people on my lists who I purposely hid their profiles on my newsfeed as Ive been so bothered with their statuses and shoutouts on their walls creating so much stirs. There are people who loves posting quotes and statuses that are always on the attack mode, or are always indirectly bullying or hitting on other people, or creating something to start an arguement. Always angry and all, or whiny. These types of things are the stuffs that doesnt have any space on my newsfeed. They must be very lonely, that they have to be on WAR MODE ON all the time. I am getting tired of their negativity already.Whats up with those? Do they really think they are cool when they do that?

i guess it is their facebook and it is they freedom of expression online and also freedom of privacy hence hidden behind fake profiles and nicks.I guess it is your freedom also to block and ban them also and not include in your wall or friend lists.As u know , facebook is a public domain anything put there is for public and no more private.

For some reason this people doesn't know social etiquette or they may not be aware that such thing exist at all. They post whatever crosses their minds and most of them are non sense. For them, it is a freedom of expression, for some it can be very offensive or useless. So that is good action, just ignore them or hide them from showing up from your list.

I hear this a lot about people's face book pages. I don't have this problem, if I did I would have cancelled my Facebook account a long time ago. I only have accepted close friends and family on Facebook. If I don't know you and am not close to you, then your not accepted. Maybe that's why I don't have this problem. No whining, no bullying, no attacking.
Maybe you need to delete said people from your friends list, not just block them. If asked why they were deleted, tell them honestly. You don't like the negativity and don't want it on your wall. If they don't understand then you don't want them as a friend anyway. Just my 2 cents worth on the whole Facebook thing.

Actually, I know this person.Like you, I dont just add people I dont even know. She was my colleageback from our previous job.I thought, I was the only one who notices it, my other colleague noticed that too and many others.Just didnt know she's'like that as she was very prim and proper and quiet in the office.But will think about your suggestion on deletion if same status persists.:) thanks!

Hi @jennbart!
Yes, I have a few friends who do the same too. Some obviously have some issues with other people and they just want to express themselves and their negativity on their status. I just unsubscribe to them because I don't think that it is the proper venue to do such things. If they have problems with a certain person, I don't think it is proper to shout it out. If they have problems they have to face it instead of facebooking it.
I don't think that they are cool when they do this because it will only cause some confusion, or others might get irritated like I usually feel and unsubscribe to them.

I also unsubscribe to them. I dont want to see their whines and complaints on my newsfeed. Id rather that they send a private message or meet somewhere to iron things out than let all the people in facebook their problem.Its like they are airing their dirty linens in public.

I also see same things on my newsfeed sometimes. eventhough my facebook is on private I still accept friends from when I was in primary and secondary so I don't know that they are like that, always posting statuses that are intended to bully other facebookers or whining about their life and problem, I dislike them too so I unfriended the other and the other I restricted. well we can't change their ways anymore so that's only our choice.

Well there goes the phrase that we sbould really responsible on what we post or comment in facbook because people we really surely judge us on what we posted or commented on facbook. It is like a book that is being judge by its cover because of what is written on its title. So we should be realy carefull. It isa social media we cant control what people may think. Have a nice day to you my friend.
