Facebook 'Divorce' Dilemma

They are "perfect."  They don't curse, take sarcasm, or have any sense of humor.   Now I have to watch what I post... 

I'd get rid, tbh.

That's how this gal is, too.

Not my thing, as anyone who knows me knows!

She wasn't always like that, but then she just went all like that.

I have all those ridiculous games hidden - Mafia Wars, Vampire stuff and all the many many many tedious Farm-related games.

Me too!

I do hate that I have people (relatives mostly) on my friends list who I have to think about before posting anything. Some of them wouldn't be too happy with some of the things I'd like to post.

Heheheh... i know.
My PRIEST is on my Facebook!!

Your priest is probably less of a basher than this gal!

I only just realized that there was a News Feed that you saw all that stuff on (Games and such)  I only really look at status updates.  But I did take the time to block some of the games, now that I know about it. (Thank you!)

And I always pick do not post after I do anything.  I'm to OCD to have stuff on my page

There's some things I'd like to post that I never do since my mom, dad, step-mom and step-dad are on my page!  I can just see that now...my facebook status:  "Me and the hubby had a wonderful time last night...now we're both sore and tired."   

I've blocked certain feeds for fan pages and whatnot because while I support them, I don't want to read every single post from them. I have yet to block any particular person though I've been both blocked and deleted. It's hurtful when you figure that out, especially if you thought that person was a friend, but c'est la vie. You can't please everyone.

When I get friend requests I don't want to accept, I just leave them up rather than hitting ignore because there's a contingent of old high school folks I know who just keep re-requesting you add them. This way they can't keep doing that. It just keeps on pending.

You can!! When something like, "Marcia just won a bloody neckbite in Vampire Wars" pops up on your wall, the Hide drop-down box should give you the option of hiding Vampire Wars.

YAY!  I just hid all those idiot Farmville posts.

I try not to let my games posts go up - sometimes they slip by -like when I score about 2 million on Bejeweled.  But I'm sure that chary enjoys seeing those anyway.  

I have absolutely no problem deleting people who add nothing to my life. LOL Maybe I am just too mean... nah! LOL

I love the ability to hide the applications too. And being able to put your friends into different groups and adjust your security based on those groups is wonderful! At one time I was adding bunches of people for some of the games, but I didn't want them to be able to see pics of my kids & such. Now I have an "all access" group & only people I feel comfortable with can see my family.

Gotta love facebook, especially since that's where my HTB found me.

SPIT!

This is a very good idea. I had a huge House twist completely spoiled for me cause I subbed to the show's fanpage. I'm still sad about it.

Maybe I'm not totally up on the Facebook security as I should be, how do you block things from the news feed?  Because my little cousins take WAYYYYY to many of those stupid quizzes, and I really don't need to know if they're more like Miley Cyrus or Hannah Montana....hahaha. 

Thanks.

If you look at the last thing she posted and hover your mouse over to the right but level with her name, you should get a 'Hide' drop-down box!

I didn't know you could do this either until this thread!  It works for applications/games too. I went through my news feed and hid a bunch of stuff.

yay!  this turned out to be a great thread just for finding out how to hide all those annoying games!

I know, yippeee!!! I did that on mine, too. Plus divorced a few people. Plus hid a few others I didn't want to necessarily divorce, but who annoy me sometimes. I feel great! My Facebook is like pure joy now.
