Donna, hiding people's posts is easy.. hover your cursor over the questionable post.. on the right side of the post the word "hide" will appear.. just click on that and Voila... that person's posts will be hidden from you..but they can still see what you post.

Is that what's clogging up my FB ;)

I got a request for two new people and approved them. There seems to be a bit of a time delay thingy going on though before new members show up on the page!

Keep checking your group pages and then stop in and say hello!

Welcome!

Gee thanks.. but if you give me your wisdom teeth then what will you do for wisdom? And besides, my bottom left wisdom tooth is killing me!

My bottom right one, when I had them all extracted years ago, really hurt me once they got it out.

I got all the wisdom I am going to get prior to their extraction.

No. I use Facebook and have everyone blocked except for people I WANT on there.
There are settings where you can make your page unviewable to anyone and where nobody can join unless you send them an invitation. That's how mine is set up.
If you just want people to join that are Christians, you don't have to accept friendships from people who aren't. Just say no when you're asked if you want to accept them on your page.

That might offend though, I would hate to cut people off. What I thought of was 2 accounts with FB, one just for Christians and the other as a sort of outreach thing with some strict discipline. :)

]I am very active on FB, and have led 3 of my friends to the Lord this yr through FB... One was an old classmate.. that said he knew I was a preacher, and he was lost, and needed saved... I met with him the next week...[/B]

Others, saw me online, and started a chat, asking questions...

Others see me online, and IM me, only to ask me to pray for them..

FB, is the most effective witnessing tool right now...

I have defriended people, but only after they have attacked something I have posted time after time... I am not on FB to argue.. I have BB for that!!! LOL

Or I have defriended people if they keep posting vulgar stuff..

I have over 300 friends, divided up into different groups.. BB, School mates, Other pastors, people I have met from pastoring differnt churches...etc...

Our West Virginia Baptist Convention last yr, encouraged all our pastors to sign up for FB.. Now the convention seems a lot closer, because we know what each other is up to. When we had our annual meeting in October, in Lewisburg, WV, we seemed closer, because we were connected throughout the year.

One minister even thanked me for posting things...

FB is a tool.. use it to glorify God. I am constantly finding old friends, who now I am able to share my faith with through FB.. and if it wasn't for FB, I couldn't...

So I love it. Alot more than myspace btw... myspace has too much teeny bopper drama for me!... Facebook is more professional.

Sounds great, that's the exact reason I want a profile on FB, have one on Friends Reunited a UK school meet up site, a lot milder though, most people seem to use FB.

If I have known people I have befriended them. One friend, who supposedly is a Christian, has had some...let's say "interesting" stuff posted in picture form at his website. Right now, if it comes up at mine, I just hide the posts.

I took the plunge into FB a few months ago. I have found friends from church, HS, college, Habitat, Sacred Harp, and a few other places. You can restrict your information as much or as little as you want. I have avoided the games and other stuff that you can get lost in. It is a great way to keep up with what other people are doing.
