Mame Saah's 25 Do's and Don'ts for Facebook 2010- Vol. 4 (Just for Laughs)

76. If you are regular Joe and you have a fan page in addition to your regular Facebook page, that’s calling for too much attention. You are not a celebrity, drop the fan page!

77. The profile names Superman Ken, Saved Woman, Pretty Flower, Holy Angel, don’t make you those things. Use your real name for Heaven’s sake!

78. Desist from using a celebrity’s photo as your profile picture. If you are such a big fan, join their fan page!

79. You’ve been an FB member for more than a year and you still need help navigating the page. I’m sorry to tell you online networking is not for you. Do yourself a favor and deactivate your account.

80. And if you are one of the people who keeps deactivating his/her account because you can’t stand some people in your network, do us a favor and permanently deactivate your account. It’s annoying when u keep disappearing from the network.

81. Have you heard of the phrase “give credit where credit is due?’ Yeah, the next time you repost a link, video, note, phrase that is not your original work, give credit to the person you borrowed it from. We get annoyed when you get comments on your “re-post” than we did on our original. Thank you very much.

82. Stop sending friendship requests to everyone suggested to you by facebook. Not everyone wants to be your friend!

83. People could hurt you from teasing them with the vivid descriptions in your status update of the delicious meals you enjoy on a daily basis. Don’t do it!

84. It’s good to have self confidence but all the accolades you’ve given to yourself in that box on your profile page beneath your profile picture are a turn off. Show some modesty!

85. If I delete you from my friends list, please do not send me a friendship request again. I am so not ready for this stalkerthon!

86. Please stop posting “hot” videos on my page. In the mind of the average internet browser, “hot” is equal to “porn.” You are spoiling my reputation!

87. Stop joining fake groups like “See who Viewed Your Profile”. They are leading people on for nothing!

88. Quit complaining each time Facebook changes its interface. You always figure out how to navigate the site after fifty tries. Adapt to their gazillion changes or pack your net goods and leave!

89. I don’t know you, we have no friends in common, we did not go to the same school, we are not in the same network and we even live in different countries. What makes you think I will accept your friendship request? Pull your request off my page already before I ignore you!

90. We love to see photos but please do us a favor and stop changing your profile picture three times a day. You are making yourself appear seriously unstable!

91. Stop suggesting friends for me. If I wanted them to be my friends, I would have friended them myself!

92. A family friend is not a sibling. Stop making your daddy look bad and delete those fake siblings on your info page!

93. If you already blocked some people you once “friended,” don’t rethink your decision because the moment they find out you came to your senses and unblocked them, trust me, you will be blocked!

94. If you play more than three Facebook games a day, you seriously need to get a life. Who logs onto a social networking site to play with imaginary creatures??

95. Every once in a while, visit the market place and do some commerce. Yes, there is an application called “Marketplace,” you miser!!!

96. Please don’t let that sketching tool do a sketch of your photo. You are already scary-looking as it is!

97. Do you need another reminder that the space under my photo, status update, link and wall post is for comments, not private conversations between you and your friend? There is a reason why the chat window was created. Use it!

98. If you want to keep the members in your group, exercise restraint and send a maximum of one message a day! Your non-stop messages are crowding my inbox!

99. I am not a magician to figure out what you are thinking so do me a favor and complete the sentence in your status update. Don’t make me hide you from my news feed!

100. You have a ghost for a profile picture and you decide to change your profile name to something totally unrecognizable. Don’t be offended if I mistake you for a hacker and delete you. People who want to socialize make themselves recognizable to their friends!
