  • YouGov says: "This points towards a new phase — the rise of sites with slightly more purpose than just connecting to people for the sake of it.
    I am glad you have slightly more purpose than Facebook... ;)
  • That probably explains the increase in trolls on this site.

    Must admit when fisrt joined fb was interesting to see what people you dont like at school did with themselves!

    Its also good way to keep in touch with family and post pics as we spread out dont see much of each other as we would like.

    Im struct with my privacy settingshave freindship culls every few months,
    get requests from people I hardly know.

    A lot are linked through mummy forums i belong too.

    what drives me mad i

    people trying to create a false picture perfect life and make other people feel bad.
    Lot of people on my fb list are very shallow, vain and consumer driven still funny to laugh at dodgy hair extensions amd they look like extra from geordie shore!A few almost treat themselves as if they reality stars and demand attention at all times.

    mse is a community and very divesrse with different boards.
    its why I love it.
