ok, so the time they forced live feed on us, at least we had the optison of resetting the settings and put status update as default. The problem is, as far as I can tell, we can’t do that anymore. Is there any way of getting live/news feed to not be default and set status updates there instead? Cuz I don’t give a crap if people have “fed their animals” or joined a group protesting against “killing animals” or the such…

I hate the new facebook, live feed isn’t even working right, i’m not seeing the messages from all the people i used to and it keeps going back to “yesterdays” messages. Why change something that previously worked fine? Chat doesn’t work right, found a friend was receiving blank instead of text. So frustrated might give up on facebook!!

Hey I got an idea! Why don’t they leave it the **** alone? :~)
For those lecturing those who complain: If someone implements a change that affects something you use, you have the right to complain. (get it?)
So let me see. In news feed, FB is deciding what is important to you (R they serious?). I’m not saying it isn’t well intended. Just as a person trying to go into the bathroom with you to help you with toiletry functions might not be malicious minded. Still, you have the urge to grab them by the sides of their head and scream ,”Just get the **** out!”
At least allow a person to set Live feed to the default!!!! But no, that foot keeps sticking into the door jam when you try to close the bathroom door.
Yes, if you write on someones wall…keep it there! don’t auto-broadcast it.
How is myspace lately?
honestly, have you ever been doing something when some well intended but slightly unhinged person insists on “helping”? You tell them no in a polite ,tactful manner a dozen times and they don’t get it until you scream in their face: “Sit the **** down and shut the ***** up!!!”
:~)
Please, if you must change FB to justify your jobs, SIMPLIFY it.
It’s like a ****ing christmas tree with 76 extention cords all jury rigged to each other.
how is the buiding material in the walls of FB able to insulate so well from reality itself?

I really hate the fact that whatever I write on someone’s wall, it gets posted on the live feed. It’s sooo annoying. I had a setting that made that impossible, and now, it’s all gone. Pls put it back!!

And, some computer decides what is important for me? I have posted some important things that I wanted people to know, but it stayed in the Live Feed while I had to look at all this junk about Farmsville and the results of the latest What Badass Historical Figure Are You? quiz. I posted about a health condition of a relative. Stayed in Live Feed. FB team is of absolutely no help. I have become so offended by this stupidity that I am taking a FB vacation and it might be permanent.

Facebook has too much noise. From spam to game invites, to viewing who posted what to who’s wall to people gloating about their kids, it’s just a mess. Facebook = Garbage.

The change is lame as lame can be. (And don’t give us this dribble about how some people supposedly just don’t like change. Stupid. So in order to prove that we can deal with change and avoid this stupid accusation that we just don’t like change, we have to like every change that occurs no matter how idiotic. Learn to think, people.) Facebook keeps getting worse, not because it’s change, but because the changes are ill conceived and don’t reflect what fb users would like to see.

.There are a lot of hissy fits waiting to happen in these comments. The big poppa Facebook isn’t listening to its most precious children. Don’t like the new features? Cry about it. Just cry, okay? The world doesn’t love you anymore. You have been shunned and rejected. And of course, your opinions speak for everyone else. How dare Facebook not recognize your entitlement!?.

I’m a professional web designer, and my #1 rule is that I always design my websites with two parties in mind – 1. my clients and 2. their end users. If the product is not satisfying the end user, in this case, Facebook users, then Facebook should take everyone’s input into consideration. I’ve seen a lot of people switch back to Myspace already, and I’ve even decided to routinely check up on mine again, and I’ve noticed they have made improvements since I last logged in around August 09. I still prefer facebook over Myspace though, due to the better performance, app support, and lack of obnoxious advertisements and spam. It would be nice though, to see Facebook redevelop their site so it could be more user-friendly.
