I don't play Farmville, so don't ask me for crops.

I know I have more important things to do today but I cant help but blog about this. Give me 5 minutes.

Facebook is perhaps the best social networking site since Friendster. Its unique selling propositions, which really makes me love it, is its being interactive with users and...it is stalker-friendly <3. I use Facebook for two reasons, one is to express my thoughts and moods in a not-so-annoying way (because I know I can be overly dramatic), and two, is to connect with friends and acquaintances.

This morning, though, I got pissed with a certain friend who sent me a message through FB chat (she does this every single morning) just to ask for a fuckin reindeer in Farmville. "Huy, give mo naman ako reindeer sa farmville. salamat." WTF! I told her on Monday, and last week, and the week before that, that I don't play Farmville, but she keeps on bugging me to log in and give her crops, animals, and whatnot. Seriously, dude, can't you understand a simple statement like "I don't play Farmville."?

It's the same concept to those who invite people to be a fan of something or someone. I used to do this (work-related), but now I know that it's not supposed to be the case. Maybe you can invite once but that's it. If I decline, I EFFIN DECLINE. Don't force people to like your brand or you will never get to convert them as buyers.

And with that I share with you my current Facebook status message:

most of my friends here in FB are either farmers or mafia gangsters. i am neither. so don't bug me every single morning just to ask for crops, gifts, guns, what have yous. thank you very much.

SHOOT. BV.
