Repost if you care…
The biggest crock of shit I’ve ever seen lol. These messages that everyone feels the need to pass around using guilt to make others do the same are what I consider a social networking virus. It walks, talks and acts the same way as a virus only it’s not considered a virus! Lets break it down a little. How do most virus cause the MOST damage? They replicate clogging networks and shutting down businesses! How do these repost messages work? They replicate! Only most of the time they fail in clogging networks and shutting down businesses, not Always but most of the time. Why do most hackers make viruses? The recognition and to see something they do effect a lot of people! Why do these evil kids post letters that guilt you into reposting them? The recognition and to see something they do effect a lot of people! I don’t really see why people can’t see it the way I do. Why must you let someone else guilt you into posting a message about how much you love the 2143234 friends you don’t even really know or how much you care about some cause you probably have no clue about?
I’m all for spreading the word about important things like breast cancer or raising money for some cause but reposting crap other people post to avoid some bad luck, a post of which I as a reposter probably didn’t even fully read or care to investigate is just not in my to-do list.
Now on another note I play some of the facebook apps and they can be a bit spammy I must admit and I struggle with that everyday as I play those games. I try to spam as little as possible(which apparently to other app players is a bad thing) while I’m playing those games and I avoid the ones that do things without asking. The only reason I really play those games is to have some fun with my family and to unwined a little so I don’t get burnt out on programming. The only justification I have for those apps is because people can block the spam they send and it no longer bothers them. Respost’s you cant block without explicitly blocking that friend. Which I can’t see being a good thing because even some of your bestest of friends repost some stupid cause or “do you love your friends” crap one time or another. It gets the best of em, even I have done it once. YES I DID I ADMIT IT! But I felt really bad afterwards and had really bad indigestion.
Moral of the story… STOP REPOSTING SPAMMY USELESS VIRUS CRAP!
