Facebook Poking, do you enjoy it, or does it annoy you?

I find the feature of facebook "poke" useless, i mean if someone wants to talk to you on facebook, they could do it by just sending you a message, not by poking, they just want attention. i do not enjoy it as much as i am not annoyed. If am not annoyed because i do not use the feature, and i just ignore it from all the features that facebook has. Do you often use this feature or do you just ignore it?

I think it is useless as well. Now, I just ignore the poke feature. It really annoyed me when I was having Facebook alerts sent to my phone as I would get so many texts from being poked. I don't even bother to poke back anymore because it annoyed me so much.

Yes it's a useless feature. In fact I didn't know I was being poked by several people for several times I didn't also know how can anyway get any attention from someone when I nomrmally don't know that I was being poked. Is this feature still existing on Facebook?

well facebook poke is good when you poke anyone but it annoyes when some who is not your friend or relative pokes you.but i think it is good way to attract the people who does not know you and you wanted their friendship.

So do I. I do not get the real purpose of that poking in Facebook. Well you could just drop a message if you want to be noticed by someone, why do you have to poke them instead? Lol.

I think that feature is totally pointless. Since facebook has changed, you know get notifications every time someone pokes you which is even more stupid. Those people who poke you never stop because they always want to be the last one to poke so it's really a pain in the back.

personally it dosent annoy me one bit since no one on my friends list dose that. i never understud what the point of the poke thing was for. i think that they could have come up with some thing better then the whole poke thing.

I totally agree with you, i think it's just useless since facebook has a chat feature, and an online feature I just ignore it like you
