I booted FB off about 4 years ago. I think I may have sent a couple of

By coincidence I rejoined today. Nothing seems to have changed.
Thing is that some of the people there have a brain, but they put it to

When I have finished being nosey I'll boot it off again.


Indeed - but if you have a local group, then it's not much different to

That's why it's popular and I cannot argue with that.
