I guess you are a facebook addict since you opened this discussion. There are a lot of rumors about facebook being removed. Facebook has already been part of our daily internet lives. When this happens, what will you do?

Well nothing much really.Most of your friends are your real life friend whom you can contact.As for online friends,you can add them into your msn or whatever you are using.

my friends are using different messengers and I cant signup to all of them just to chat with my friends, unlike in facebook.It is very commonly used which makes it easier to communicate with them.

Not much to tell you because I don't even have a facebook account but my friends bug me to sign up there and I don't want to for the reason that i already have many other accounts which haven't used them for some time.. in fact surely they are now deleted. I don't see what's so special about facebook. It's another site to post photos, make a profile and so on... nothing special. I'm starting to think the creators used a spell or some sort to make it popular lol 'cause I can't understand how it became so huge and well used. If facebook will be removed (and I doubt it since now almost the whole plant access it) some will just find another replacement, others won't care, some will freak out. Popular sites like these aren't removed, they grow and develop, already expecting to see Facebook messenger release.

I think many people are using it since many of their friends are using it also. It has been used as a means of communication and a stress relief (from games) also. That why it has been the in-thing right now. I dont know if it will be like friendster in the future, when a new and better site will be introduced.

Yes, I am addicted to Facebook. Don't always believe what you hear. Facebook is not going anywhere. Why would it? The guy that created Facebook was named the youngest self made billionare by Forbes in 2008. Why would he cut off the hand that feeds him?

Maybe it wont be removed but it might be banned from your country. It has already been banned in other countries like China (according to a responder in this discussion). I don't really know why it is banned. There's nothing really wrong with it..

hi there, i can't really say if im addicted to FB or not but i admit that one time or another i have been addicted with its games. hehe that i can't let a day pass without visiting the site. actually at first almost the whole day FB is opened in my browser! but now, hmmm its already lessen maybe because i have been a bit busy in other things. well if it happens that FB will be gone nothing i can do but to accept this fact and move on. haha i know i can live without FB and there will always be another site to be with to interact & reconnect with friends and play some games as well! haha and i think its better than mylot being removed. hehe

Facebook isn't going to be removed. There's no reason for it, especially because the company is so successful. But hypothetically, if Facebook were to disappear, I would feel a little out of touch for a while. I mostly use Facebook to "check up on" friends and organize events. Without it, we'd just have to find another way to do these things.

But it has been banned from many countries already, and one of them is China (this is according to a responder of this discussion). yeah, I think we will find another site. Thank you for your response. Happy mylotting.

I haven't tried using myspace. Does myspace also have games? If it doesn't then maybe it is not like facebook after all. Some people are addicted to facebook for so many reasons, some maybe because of the games. Thank you for your response.

Oh really? Why is it banned? Facebook has already been banned in a lot of countries. Hopefully it will not be banned here in my country. yeah, maybe it will be okay not to use facebook. but it will surely be missed.

thanks for the discussion. i regularly use facebook but only for the games, and lately, for cloud crowd. however i think if it is removed, well life must go on right? i'm sure there will always be something that would be similar or replace it. cheers!

Your welcome. Me too, I use facebook because of the games. Yeah, life must go on but surely many facebook gamers will miss it. And maybe will find another games to replace the usual facebook games they play.

most of my friends are addicted to it.I wonder how they are able to sit infront of fb without doing anything special because this is what it is a waste of time.Gossiping,opening some stupid daily lucks or stuff like that and the strangest thing that comes to my mind is the farm.I cannot imagine why grown people do it all day long?

I easily get bored with games so I change games easily. I also played the farm games but it didn't last long. Yeah, I have noticed that it is usually the older people who gets so addicted to farm games, which also lasts long. Thanks for the response. Happy mylotting.
