Am I the only one who misses when you had to have a college email to join FB? It was the ONE thing that separated FB from MySpace. I think FB got really big my junior year of college. Now, everyone can have a page. What's worse is when people give their 5-year-old a page and think that's acceptable. I miss the good 'ole days of FB.
AnotherKD, where did you go to school that they had a page like this? That does sound pretty weird and most likely like one big popularity contest. I see, in the spirit of things, how it could have been viewed as a good thing, though.
I agree with everyone on here. Discretion is key. Also, while we are on pictures and putting yourself in a good light--OP, please do us all a favor and don't have a bunch of pictures with Duck Face. Ugh! Also, if grammar isn't your strong point, please have someone look it over on your FB profile. You could be a beauty queen and sweet as pie but, if you have something like "Love of my life-YOUR my everything" then I lose (NOT loose) all respect for what you just wrote and have a hard time taking you seriously
<--- just a tip.
