MLP Forums Vs. Facebook

[CharmingStallion 63]

As controversial as the title sounds Just curious how many find themselves coming to MLP Forums more often than Facebook? I almost always leave these forums happy/smiling whereas Facebook...not so much. Soooo that's my reason ;-) You?

I prefer this to facebook

[Scootalove 10,689]

I like this site more than Facebook, I just enjoy this site more.

[XxConfusedUnicornxX 834]

Very hard choice! But I would go for Facebook because all my friends and family are there. They are not bronies (even my friends ) so why would they go to this forum? It would be more fun if all your friends are here so you can interact with each other. If my friends had accounts in this site, I would go for here but family and friends are more important than a show with technicolored ponies. Yes, it's my favorite show. But you can only have your family and friends once unlike the show which can be brought back again and again.

Facebook is terrible for trying to discuss stuff. It's good for sharing stuff and making things go viral, but actually talk?... not so much.

[Blue Moon 6,340]

Well, I haven't been on Facebook for quite a long time; I don't even use it anymore; I just occasionally check it, so I'd say I prefer MLP Forums over Facebook.

[Onylex 2,837]

It all depends on who you interact with, how they interact with you and how you interact with them.

 

Personally I prefer this sight, Im much more comfortable here.

The people I talk to on Facebook are mostly friends of friends and family. 

 

Though I do suppose you could use Facebook in a different way, just go around adding random people and being very social. 

[Ruddboy Olaf 10,628]

Both of the sites are pretty boring.

 

I find myself just waiting for something to happen.

 

But,this site is at least better at that then Facebook.

 

So,bottom of the line, MLP Forums is better than Facebook.

I don't have a facebook, and never will, so this is an easy decision for me.

[Zhortac 1,474]

I don't post anything constructive on facebook anyway, so it's probably no different

[Courageous Thunder Dash 7,822]

MLP Forums all the way. I can't stand some people on facebook, as they use it as a ranting post. 

[Nameless Knight 1,001]

MLP forums all the way

 

So far:

MLP Forums:  9 votes

Facebook: 1 votes....

[PsychedelicPony 440]

I have pretty much completely stopped using Facebook. The only time I do is the occasional notification on my phone other than that none.

[FractalMoon 378]

Well... One of these works on my phone and the other doesn't, and that's the one I use more (Hint, Facebook is bugged on Galaxy phones)

[Moved to Elsewhere 11,331]

Well when interacting with irl friends and family, then yes I prefer Facebook.

 

However, for interacting with other bronies, I prefer using MLP Forums. 

 

Also Facebook is for sharing and talking instead of discussing.

[M'aiq the Liar 5,804]

A website filled with like minded individuals, and people who share a lot of the same interests as me, and a place were a semi normal discussion can happen, or a hive of cluster minded, crowd following teenagers, where ad homonym is the name of the game, debate is all about penis size, and teen age girls end entire sections of the site by yelling bigot really loudly. I wonder which one I prefer....

[Gay Bird 421]

I'd rather go to Facebook and talk with my friends than talk to random strangers here.

[Spirk Burkham 93]

I wouldn't compare them. I have met everybody (seriously, I am very picky) I have friended on facebook. I have never met anybody on this forum, and dont expect to until BronyCon of at least 2015. Anyhow, I do come to this site more often than facebook.

[Huntress 94]

What is Facebook? I've never had one

[ghostfacekiller39 23,860]

Pfft.

 

This site

All Facebook does for me anymore is give me a quick outlet to add pictures I've take with my phone to the internet for use on the forums
 

[Azura 1,107]

I spend at least 4 hours on MLPForums everyday and only a few minutes per week on Facebook, so I guess that answers your question.

[Judgement 445]

I don't think they are really comparable. Facebook is full of people that just talk about what they are doing at this very second.

 

MLP FORUMS FTW

[Golurk 468]

I don't even use Facebook. I myself find the way most people use it to be a bit creepy. Basically letting people stalk you. 

 

So, I'd have to go with here. Since I actually have an account here. 

[Celli 4,336]

LOL. I haven't really used facebook in, oh I don't even remember. Too many useless and stupid pages on there. Statuses I don't care about. And don't even get me started on the annoying game invites. Like, I check it once or twice a day, and I always get at least one.

Hello @CharmingStallion, I moved this topic from Sugarcube corner to Feedback & Suggestions. While this topic isn't providing feedback, meta threads, or threads that discuss MLP Forums and/or its community itself, fit best in this section.

 

Personally, I greatly prefer MLP Forums to Facebook in terms of regular usage, but Facebook is still an invaluable tool. I use the latter to communicate with people I know in person who moved away.
