Social Networking Nuisance??
« on: July 04, 2011, 02:30:22 pm »

Hello there SF Friends  ;D

Ok since 'apparently' everyone uses Facebook, Twitter.....these days, too many of us are addicted to them... :(

Ever considered all those cases of hacked accounts and money phishing scams? Not to mention the zillions of times people are abused online.... ::)

So.....Have you ever encountered any strange experience using such sites? Or are they always pleasant ones?...Feel free to share  :P


And please vote above...  ;D

2nd Option I assume. Trying to be the last option though but lol not working.

And the word 'fun' in option number 2 got different definition from person to person. My fun would be learning, researching, chatting to those who are distant from me, change..make a change since the internet got a great influence on us.

Nice thread! =]


Sometimes, ALLAH breaks our heart to make us whole.
Sometimes, ALLAH allows pain so we can be stronger.
Sometimes, ALLAH sends us failure so we can be humble.
Sometimes, ALLAH takes everything away from us so we can learn the value of everything HE gave us.


When Allah leads you to the edge of difficulty... either ALLAH will catch you when you fall or ALLAH will teach you how to fly! =]

Please make them strong ya Allah...

Last one. Just to continue talking to my people. Like it when people who have left me from school stay in touch.

I only use Facebook to make status updates and keep in touch with friends. I may use it occasionally when I'm bored for fun by liking pages :P looking for friends in the suggestions tab or playing a few games. But that's it--I don't use Twitter or any other social networking site.
All that is on earth will perish:
But will abide (forever) the Face of thy Lord--full of Majesty, Bounty & Honor.
Then which of the favors of your Lord will ye deny?

Giving A2 in May-June 2012 ? Deactivate before it is too late, if you cannot control.

Hmm......My Friend, deactivating is a too hasty decision...it cannot be reactivated then can it?

I used a simpler technique...I told my sis to change my password for me and choose her own.....so now that's a win-win situation  ;D

No, you can deactivate it. And then reactivate it when you wish by just logging in.

But yes, the technique you described is a foolproof one. ;)

If you want to delete it, tell me, I will teach you. ::)

'Miss Scholar' >> that's a GREAT compliment! But I assure you..I still didn't reach that level yet. It's my dream though..to be one! :D

Change of myself, change of the people around me.. I was told a lot before from some internet pals that I changed their lives. haha...gives me unlimited happiness in my heart. Alhamdolilah.

I know I can't change the internet world or the real world but I also know that the real change starts from myself. =]

So, I forgot to ask...which option did you choose?
Where are you from By the way ?

I admire you too. You're a lot different than the Shoshou Mony we used to know before! Much more patient, much more persistent and much more intelligent! :D
