Just wasted 45 minutes watching videos of expensive cars, yachts and views of waterfalls :rolleyes:

That was why facebook got deleted (although at least that was clips from martial arts movies)!

.......... do you know how long I lasted, serious.

2mins.

As soon as I signed up I had requests from friends into all that sht and the first thing the app said is "Follow someone".

I deleted it right then and there.

This new generation is retarded, I can't do it, Facebook I can let slide because it allows me to keep in contact with all my friends that I still like but we're moving in different circles, doing different things, but actively following people.......... fk no.

Honestly, I know it sounds old to say but I don't envy the youngsters today, some of their sht is entertaining like Tik Tok videos, but honestly, when has animal videos or women in bikini's never not been entertaining in any era?

But other than that, nah.

Ive never used social media apart from Snapchat with my family, but that died off a couple of years ago. I’ve only been on FB the last couple of years to keep up with a couple of overseas groups that are of interest, but I’ve avoided having ‘friends’ or posting much.

What people don’t realize, is that everything they have ever posted is out there somewhere.

I recall when Friends Reunited came out and I unthinkingly signed up to it.

Loads of people that I really didn't want to be reunited with started messaging me.

I deleted my account straight away, and learned a valuable lesson for when Facebook came out.

Yeah it took me ages to get on WhatsApp but then tbf its actually a very handy form of communication if you're not wanting to use your phone company / providers calls or texts.

For example if you're abroad you can use data instead of abroad charged minutes to make a call which can cost loads.

Also you can message in group chats instead of one person and do video calls and you can post pictures or photo's to someone so its more of a communication tool rather than a social media platform.

A lot of people have migrated onto Instagram but there's only so much narrcasitic and groupie behaviour I can take so I haven't and won't follow.

Mate Twitter is the a$$hole of humanity, I mean this portal of darkness didn't even exist 20 years ago.

If God ever decides its judgement day, it'll be because he read through Twitter and went "Nope, start again".

Remember Youngie? He had several brain hemorrhages and opened up about it to the forum. He hasn't logged in since.

Then there's GSK_AFC: at one point one of the most active members on the forum. He wasn't the kind of poster to get into heated debates, so I always thought it was strange (and somewhat concerning) how he abruptly stopped posting and never logged in again after making his final post.

Hope they're okay.

Well it was a lot more busy then but you're right the misbehaviour was higher lol.

I was a younger man and was arranging fight threads while you couldn't afford to buy a modern TV ............ oh how we've all changed.

I've calmed down and you now own a flat screen, instead of a TV with a bigger back than Nicki Minaj.

Massa was the funniest, he used to crack me up, I remember when I came home from a night on the town pissed up, logged in quickly Massa had obviously had a shandy and he was in a thread posting his phone number asking me and UFGN to call him saying "Go on do it, it will be funny" I was like no, because then it would make it real. lol
Then he tried to bribe UFGN to do it if by saying he'd send him a d*ck pic via PM lol.

Hillarious.
