Poll Are You Addicted To Social Media?

[Upside Down Eagle]

I'm a huge Facebook addict. Not a day goes by without me being on it. Nothing goes by unnoticed xD I know it might be bad, but on the other hand when I'm away from Facebook (because there is no internet or other situation) I'm fine.

I love it because I make appointments with my friends there, get invited to their place, invite them to my place. I see what they care about and react to it. When I'm feeling bad, I can post it and most of the time somebody will ask me what's going on and talk to me privately. :)

Haven't been to my myspace page in about five years, I have a facebook page that I started about the time I left myspace. I have been trying to get my facebook account deleted for more than 3 years but leaving facebook is apparently not allowed. I can not get them to stop sending me e-mails or to delete my profile. I don't think it counts as social networks but I spend some time playing MMORPG's. I have several characters on Perfect World and two in IMVU. IMVU is a great place to go to chat and dance and watching my character dance always cheers me up.

I only have a Facebook Page and I go there the same number of times I come to these forums, usually twice per day. So I voted no, as I don't spend a whole lot of time there either. less time than I spend here!

I deleted my Facebook page, have never had an account on Twitter or Tumblr or Instagram. So no, guess not!

ExanimisRex- you can delete your Facebook if you want to. Go on account settings- deactivate account. You must not log in at all, not even to be nosy, for two weeks. After that, the account is removed. They will spam you for those two weeks to try to change your mind. Just mark them as 'spam' and you're sorted. After two weeks, bye bye Facebook and anything to do with it.

lol you have no idea how many times I have done that. Facebook does not allow you to leave them, I only know of one person who has had their account deleted and the had to fill the page with racial bigoted comments to get it deleted, I'm not willing to be so offensive so I am stuck with my account and their never ending parade of e-mails.

I keep a personal facebook page to keep in touch with family and close friends and a community page to express myself with pictures and quotes. I find it to be enjoyable and I visit it daily, but do not consider myself to be addicted to it. It is more something to do when I wish to express myself with graphics, art, inspirational quotes, etc.

I have a Facebook page to keep in touch with friends and family that live at a distance, also I have family in the US and love to hear from them.

I find it useful and check it most days but if it wasn't there I wouldn't miss it at all. Sometimes I send letters to people just because it is so ice to receive something personal from someone so if Facebook ever stopped I'd revert to snail mail which I love!
