You have a choice...FACEBOOK or BOARDS, Choose carefully...

Kaneda_

You have a choice between the two sites, you must give up one for the rest of your life.



Imagine not knowing which one of your 760 friends is going on holiday or how hungover everyone is on a sunday morning? Life without FB would be hard wouldnt it?

What about life without Boards.ie for a second... Who would you argue with? Wouldnt you miss reading the posts that make you laugh, the ones that make you cry and the ones that make you want to put your head through the screen? Or maybe you would feel left out , like you have been banished from a large internet family and left to rot on the side of the road?





What will it be brothers and sisters?

I have never had a FacePoop account and never will because it is rubbish.

I'd get rid of Facebook.
I could play poker somewhere else.

Chuck Stone

Fuck Facebook.

Facebook is for nosy people.

Facebook.

It's gotten to the stage where I get most of my news from Boards.ie. All I get on Facebook is status updates that usually end in ".com"

MrStuffins

Cue many many smug acting Boards users claiming they're too cool for school by saying "I don't use Facebook"!

Kaneda_

Im getting a vibe that people think there to cool to admit to using Facebook.


Lettuce be reality here, you all have FB open in another tab dont you?

theteal

I use Facebook more now since I've moved away but still nowhere near as much as I need boards!

Next question

Only Southpark can say what I really think of facebook .

I have an account that my wife setup and I seldom use it, but the amount of time people text me (on phone) and ask why I didnt accept their friend request is ridiculous . .

I also get poked alot!!

efb

Boards is what I'd give up!
(make it clear)

Logical Fallacy

I'll choose Facebook over boards.

It's far more useful to me from a promotion point of view.

I do have a facebook account, but I could easily live without it.
Boards banned me for a month during july for being bold, it was tough! Very tough!

So you like being punished for being a bad boy . .

Getting poked on facebook doesnt compare with being banned on Boards . .

MungBean

If its a choice between reading strangers opinions about stuff that mildly interests me or keeping in touch with friends who have moved away then bye bye Boards. Boards is great and all but its basically other people ranting, talking shíte and occasionally you learn something new. I wouldnt really give up a whole lot for it to be honest.

But seeing as though I dont have to give up anything - Heya buddies ! What will we moan about today ? Facebook ? BLAST IT WITH PISSS!!!! Boy is my life interesting.

alwaysadub

I couldn't live without boards! Even though im not on it much anymore i don't think i could survive without it

J. Marston

So is Facebook going the way of Bebo/Myspace? Lots of people saying it's shít and all that.

What about people who live in Australia for example who use facebook to keep in touch with family and friends back home eh:( that makes sense to me. I'm a facebook user who has a life outside of technology:mad:

Gummy Panda

I choose boards.

I get all my news from AH.

charlemont

Stuff Facebook Id keep Boards.

Max Power1

Id give up facebook.

Simple reason, FB is blocked in work but boards isnt. If I had to give up boards then I may have to resort to 100% productivity!

coffeelover

I'd give up boards. I love facebook too much

tmi

i'd give up boards because i only just started here and im not too sure about it

Chuchoter

I'd keep boards. Its like the oracle!

I have found myself using FB alot more the past while.I say 'using' but what i really mean is logging in 5 times a day waiting for a little red notification to appear in the top left of the screen, then my day is made.

DEFTLEFTHAND

Anyone I consider a friend or anyone who I want to stay in touch with is on my phone, so Id let Facebook go if I had to make the choice.

For me, both sites are chalk and cheese, the wealth of information you can get from boards vs people telling you how hungover they are or what they had for dinner.But then facebook is good for someone advertising a business i guess, anyhow to answer the question i'd choose boards 1000%.
If it were not for boards i wouldn't have had a clue how to apply for college as a mature student and apply for a grant also as the goverment bodies set up were useless compared to the help i had here in the edu section, i also found the photography section which allowed me to share my hobby with like minded people, theres so many times i've used boards for an answer to a question, alright it might not have the gloss of facebook but as a tool its far more powerful.....thats my two cents.:)

bnt

Since I've never had a Farcebook account, this one's easy. I am trying Google+, but I could do without that. Boards is the real deal, folks.

I use it to talk to friends in France, America, Australia and others. I share interesting videos and articles I find with other people who would like em. I catch up with people I dont get a chance to meet regularly. Its not just for sad people waiting for someone to like their "awkward moments" like yourself.

madmammy

i'd give up boards....facebook is for keeping in touch with my family

Yep i do but i'd never deny using facebook, so what its only a social networking site ffs. I think its a great way of staying in touch with old long term friends, wishing people a hb and taking the piss out of drunk-in pics. Just last night there's a couple I know who split up a few weeks back and decided to slag each other off on each others wall, f'n priceless

Then there's boards, makes me laugh makes me cry makes me wana hurt my laptop real bad sometimes. So if I had to delete one, it would have to be facebook.

eirn

I'd keep boards. All facebook has done is make me realise that I have a lot of really annoying 'friends'
It's also a bit too stalkerish, as in we went on a date in 2003 that didn't go well, all other forms of communication have been closed, why would I want to be your friend!
Theres skype and email if you want to keep in touch with people.

I'd "give up" Facebook.

Incredibly easy considering I quit using Facebook back in 2006 and haven't bothered with it since.

Sunnyisland

Boards.ie :-)

ollaetta

No contest. Facebook is over rated pish.

Obviously boards. I don't really use facebook so wouldn't be missing out on much!

SV

Definitely give up boards first.
Least I can remove the retards off my facebook, no control over them here.

Acoshla

Hmm, I love boards but I get most of my work from my facebook business page so I guess I'd have to stick to that...or start harassing boardies to pay me
