Sorry, I'm over the age where I need something like FB to make myself feel important...

Viking may have "thousands" who've friended him, but of the trend that I've noticed in my friends, only about 2/3 of them are regularly on FB - the rest signed up, played a while, then quit, or check in only once in a blue moon. Of those, only about 1/4 to 1/3 post every day or reply - the rest are passive readers and you can't tell whether they agree with you or not. And of his friends, most certainly didn't friend him just to read his political posts, and while they may be reading them, they absolutely do not all agree with him 100%.
What was wrong with your altering another's posters quote? It's impersonation for one, which isn't permitted. It was not exactly the same or it wouldn't have been pulled - a "quote", by definition, should be exactly what the person said, even taking a few sentences out of context to change their meaning is suspect. Second, you may think it's funny, but no one else does - it's really in poor taste - address the points the poster made in a respectful manner, rather than avoid the issue by changing their words and acting snarky (and as I recall you complained about VL doing the same thing, so yes, you do know better). And yes, your credibility is a little suspect when your post is shown to be wrong and you never come back to admit it, or you duck direct questions.

Neptune, this is how Facebook works: you sign up for an account, then start searching for people you know. When you do, you click on the Add a Friend button and it sends them a message asking them if they want to be your friend. When they say yes, you both have access to each other's profile page - the info that you input about yourself, pictures, posts you make, etc. You can set the privacy to only people you've friended, or wide open to the public. Then when you log in, you see all of your friend's recent posts, or posts that have the most recent activity. You can send messages, or IM while you're both logged on.The Viking wrote:

Really? Lately you have been posting lies and no sources.....and rewriting peoples posts so you can lie about that. You need to do some serious work on rebuilding your posting reputation, if that is even possible now.
My reputation is stellar with everyone but about 6 people on here. And do I care when I have thousands on FB who read my posts daily? Not in the least. Your little jabs don't get to me archer. But you can keep trying with nothing else to be excited aobut this next eleciton, you have to find something to entertain you.
And what was wrong with me exchanging Clinton with Republican Congress? It was all exactly the same. But libe have no commone sense, no sense of reality, and no sense of humor.
