Facebook Applications....AHHHHHHH

[jwildflower1981]

Does anybody else spend hours that you really don't have to spare doing these Facebook applications you said you'd never do.
So now I've got 2 farms, 2 aquariuns, a rollercoaster kingdom......help.....I can't stop!!!!!

The only one I'm addicted to is Bejeweled ... the rest I find incredibly irritating.

I don't care who worked on what farm or who's mafia family put a contract out on someone!!! Leave me alone!!!

I didn't even know you can do all that on Facebook. I hardly ever check into my account.

My addiction right now it Intercot and selling on Ebay. Soon to be an addiction to the Wii I got for DD's Christmas gift.

Hear, hear! I am however addicted to Facebook as it is right on my iPhone! Wish Intercot had an app. That would DEFINITELY take up all of time

[Dragongirlx]

I have a farm, a cafe, a garden, a pet and it all takes up soo much time but I enjoy it so I don't mind too much - just as long as I don't get invites to anything else

[LittleRoosMommy]

I'm right there with ya! LOL I now have 2 farms, 2 aquariums and a cafe! Although I haven't been on very much lately... too much to do... Christmas, school activities, and oh Yeah! 18 days to WDW!!!!!!!!!!!!

But I'm sure when we get back and through the holidays, I'll be spending more time harvesting and feeding the fish! LOL

I don't do any of the Facebook applications, and block almost all of them that appear in my newsfeed as well as ignoring any invitations for them.

Yeppers. I've got 2 farms, a mafia, vampires and NOW my dirty rotten son got me into Epic Pet Wars

[TigChatt]

If we all have these apps, then why dont we add each other to boost our farms? I have 2 farms, a mafia, 2 restaurants.....

I did the same thing. RIDICULOUSLY annoying.

I've also informed my friends that I don't want drinks, stuffed animals, hugs, or any other thing that immediately fills up the "invites" box. I prefer the real thing over the cyber one.

Well...except the stuffed animals. Don't really have any of those.

I do none of the farms, cafes, aquariums, eggs, etc. on Facebook and never plan to. I use it primarily to just keep up with friends.

If you don't like it, it's easy enough to block or ignore it - set your page to receive status updates instead of the newsfeed - select status update from the list on the left of the page. It will eliminate all those game updates. I do participate in several things myself but the ones that I don't want, I just ignore. You can do what a previous poster suggested and politely inform your friends that you don't play and therefore don't need to receive any gifts for the games.

I block them also. I love facebook for helping me to keep up with friends. Makes me feel like I can be a daily part of their lives even though we have moved far away. the rest of the activities don't interest me.

I agree. I don't get involved with any of the applications for fear I would end up wasting time and opening myself to scams. Some of those game companies have recently been charged with billing scams on phone bills, somehow. I accepted a few gift apps at one time, but for the most part now I just block, ignore, hide updates, or explain to friends that thanks, but I'm not interested. I do love catching up with friends' status updates, though.

[AHOTE]

I used to do a bunch of applications but I now block all but the Disney Apps...

[faline]

I'll go one step further and say that, so far, I've resisted the temptation to even begin a Facebook account - I have enough to do without adding more time on the internet - my Intercot obsession is enough - I think!

[RenDuran]

I'm a scrabble junkie! I have several games going all the time!

[Lakin]

Am I the only one on here that has a SuperPoke Pet?

If you click on ads on certain game pages, they will ask for your cell phone number, saying its to text you your results or verify your identity or something, and that is how your phone can get charged. As long as you're careful not to give out your phone #, ou should be ok.

I personally am addicted to Farkle (which is totally my uncle's fault, I would like to point out) and I am occassionally obsessed with Pieces of Flair.

I'm a FarmVille addict. I wish there was a way your posts only were visible to your friends who play the game because I can totally see how annoying it could get. But the reason they get posted is because sometimes it's the only way to get certain items. Sorry!
