LOL!!!!!!!!!
You took time to read the rules? You are awesome, I just went to play. How is Mafia Wars, do you get extra points for spitting on the bodies?
I still can't figure out the other games let along that one!
They don't want folks promoting dairy products to the under 18 crowd? That is sorta strange. Have you tried to contact them to ask for their reason? Could make a good story for your farm report article.
Maybe it's all the hype about the gas cows are creating LOL
LOL Facebook hates me too and I haven't figure out half of it and then today they changed a bunch more stuff.........give me blogging any day:)
I too am having better luck blogging than on facebook. I am publicizing a book I wrote and am having better luck attracting attention from strangers than from reconnecting with people from my past. Right now I'm having a drawing to give away five books. Check it out.
So how do they explain their "Give a Gun" app?
There are so many pages and so many apps and so many references and so many posted links of the "forbidden" topics that it's worth a good belly laugh to read them.
Dani, yep
Earl, can't take any credit...Center for Consumer Freedom found em and I just passed em along. I like Mafia Wars....it is the only place where I am currently showing a profit. lol
LIsa, I am kinda addicted to a handful of games like Mousehunt, Fish Wrangler and yeah, Mafia Wars...
Joated, I got the info from the Center for Consumer Freedom. Their folks tried to contact FB but got no answers
SCMomma, could be! lol
LInda, I think they like to keep us off balance., Quick as I learn how to use it they change it and I have to call the kids in again to help me figure out what to do....but I so love keeping in close contact with distant friends and family. It has reopened the world of my childhood when all were close and we saw each other at least a couple times a month at family dinners....I have a mighty fine bunch of cousins and second cousins and lovely cousins once removed. It is so nice to "see" them all again.
Susan, I did and thanks for inviting me to do so. Looks like a good book!
Jeffro, dunno...they actually have a bunch of dairy stuff despite the rules....I am a fan of butter and chocolate milk and I don't know what all else....just thought it was totally bizarre to equate milk with gambling and prescription drugs. Although it is probably a heck of a lot better than any number of the latter.
Steve, exactly right. I was astonished to see the rules, since there are so many apps on all those proscribed topics.
do you play farmville?..need a neighbor?
anon, I play one of those farm games...always glad for a neighbor, just send me an invite.
