i have both RL and online people on mine. i don't really make any distinction between the two

Me too.

People are real to me, no matter how I meet them.
And can be great and bastards, both in 'RL' and on the internet.


I hate it when people sneer that online relationships "aren't real." Granted, it's easier to lie from a distance, to someone who can't double-check what you tell him, but look at all the lying and backstabbing that people do to each other IRL. ::)

I have facebook. I only accept friends request from people I know. I do not take strangers. You can customize your friends too by limiting what they can see on your facebook.

I also have my profile set to private so only friends can see. You can't see anything on my facebook.

I prefer people to tell me who they are when they add me. I always look at their profiles to see who they are when they send me a friends request. My old class mates usually have their profiles open for anyone to view and I can recognize them and I see their name and I accept their friends request.

I have denied friends before because I didn't know who they were. Even their profiles didn't hint it.

I now hide all reports of games, first thing I do coming on FB is hiding new ones. Iit looks a lot better.

I also left this message on my profile:
Quote
I am hiding almost all games. Makes this page so much easier on my eyes. So, if you really want to share your fishing or farming results with me, you will have to mail me, to proudly brag about it.

So far, no one has mailed me to proudly brag about their gaming.

I can't trust anyone completely until I've met them in real life. I've seen too much crazy online to do otherwise. As far as backstabbing and lying goes, I haven't had that problem irl since I was in middle school, so I'm good on that front too.
George:I'd say I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not. I excel at not giving a shit. Experience has taught me that interest begets expectation, and expectation beget disappointment, so the key to avoiding disappointment is to avoid interest. A equals B equals C Equals A, or whatever. I also don't have a lot of interest in being a good person or a bad person. From what I can tell, either way, you're screwed. Bad people are punished by society's laws, and good people are punished by Murphy's Law

Sorry to hear about the craziness you've encountered online, and glad your real life has gotten better since middle school (mine has too). :)

If you block every application, like all the games and quizzes and shit, is gets somewhat okay. If only they would quit with the suggestions for friends and shit.

If that's the case, no-one will disturb me, that's good news for me.
Existence actually has two broad meanings despite its apparent meaningless. The constant reconciliation of all its parts, and the conservation of any closed system as a whole.

Morality can be extrapolated from these meanings to make these two commandments of godless morality: 1). Be in harmony with one another and 2). Care for the environment.
