It's a pity we still get the odd idiot on here who want's to insult folks for no reason and then run back to FB, take note Jack Tar you don't fool me.
I've been on Facebook for 9 or 10 years and have yet to encounter any trolls. It's a good way for me to keep up with others, especially those who are not Poconuts and not on this (or any other forum). In fact, in the past few weeks, my lifelong friend in Chicago finally jumped into the pool, and it's is so wonderful to connect multiple times a week -- with comments, photos, family news -- in addition to our two birthday phone conversations every year. Additionally, I've been able to reconnect/stay in touch with childhood, junior and senior high school friends, and former roommates from the past 50-60 (yes...FIFTY-SIXTY) years; people I might never have seen or heard from again.
However, I understand that Facebook is not for everybody.... But it works for me.
