I didn't validate the source, but thought this interesting.

 

I had a gut feeling on this, so I left Facebook about 12 years ago. Glad I did. My reasons were different. I knew my Facebook contacts - knew they were real and had lives - but were frittering them away wanting MY help to play "Mafia Wars" or other fantasy games. That MAINLY - the trivialization of "real" people I knew, plus Facebook complaints about sleepless nights with baby, infestations of yard bugs etc. - a little heavy on suburbia for my taste.

I still see, and enjoy most of those "real people." I should - some of them are family - all are friends. Just not on Facebook. Yeah, I think FB can be hazardous to your mental health. That happens and sure - physical consequences are completely possible. Never got the same vibe on DI. Disagreed vociferously with some folks and maybe disappeared for a few weeks -- but nothing permanent. Way better than Facebook. DI Shares aren't worth NEARLY the same as FB, though...

 

So let's not implement any GAMES on DI. Can you imagine anything worse than these?

"Degree Wars"
"Whack-a-Mill"
"Propio-mon" (Gotta catch 'em all!)
"Accreditation: The Final Conflict."

 

Uh oh. Just realized. Those games ARE at DI. Just buried in the threads ... we play them all the time. Hmmmm....
