PSA: How to Respond to a Facebook Wall Post
Posted by Leora Zellman on December 20th, 2007 9:35 AMOne of my biggest Facebook pet peeves is when someone responds to a wall post on their own wall. If you do this, and I know a lot of people do, the person who posted on your wall won’t see your response.
I feel it is my duty to share with you the correct way to respond to a friendly wall post from a friend:
- Click “Wall-to-Wall” which is found underneith their message.
- Respond to the wall post and click “post”.
Then they’ll get a notice of your response and you can have a conversation. You can also easily keep track of the messages you have sent back and forth with that friend by clicking wall-to-wall.
So that’s what annoys this gossip blogger.
Oh and stop poking me. I don’t like it!
What’s your Facebook Pet Peeve?

One thing that bugs me multiple requests to Causes and Applications. Hello...If I turned you down on Vampire Bites once...it's gonna happen again...and again... give it up... and don't get pissy with me about it. It's not a reflection on you...I'm not into all the novelty apps on Facebook.
I'll take a SuperPoke anyday from you!

And poking?! Euch! I have a zero-tolerance poking policy. LOL
I'd say my own pet peeve is frivolous app invitations, especially from people I don't know personally. (Ok, it's my own damn fault for adding them as friends).

Sometimes I write responses on my own wall if I think the general public would be interested in the answer (how presumptuous is that?) You can copy and paste onto your friend's wall AND your wall, yeah?

Let just people do the way they want with their wall. And use Greasemonkey to block whatever you dislike.

1. people that send you friend requests which require you to search their name in your gmail to see how you are connected, as you have no idea who they are or how they got your name.
2. People that share too much personal information on your wall. "Hey Phillip, heard you went on date last night, hope it went well" is ok "Hey Phillip, did you date really say that you are boring and dance like a chimp?" is not ok.
FB rocks although I do miss the 2005/2006 days when it was student-only.
