Facebook Applications: Learn to use the SKIP button, FFS!

It is highly frustrating to get all these damn Facebook application invites. It sucks and it seems a lot of people think so. And the solution is actually very, very simple! Let me show you:

Lets suppose you want to add the Zombies application. You will get to the application’s home page:

Now you click on the Add Application button and go to the next step where you need to select some options:

Select your options, whatever tickles your fancy, no-one really cares. Once that is done, click the Add Zombies button.

Now take note: The application is installed. The next step is not necessary and is A PAIN IN EVERYONE’S ASS!!!!!

See the “Skip” button? USE IT PLEASE! FFS!!!!

See how simple that is? Right. So stop sending bloody f&^%king application invites! If you REALLY feel that I would like this application, feel free to tell me about it and I’ll check it out and make a decision. Its that simple. Really.

  Ha! I couldn’t agree more! Really wish more people would use that. From the list below there no useful application links.
  Hopefully soon the novelty will wear off and we’ll switch from zombies to some useful applications as more companies start realizing the value of using the Facebook platform:

  I can’t agree more. This has thoroughly been pissing me off as well. I mean, who gives a crap. People are poking, moering, boxing, zombie’ing, and who knows what else all over the show. Man, I know there must be like a lot of bored people out there but there are actually some people that would like to try and use their time productively. So for those of us that actually _have_ something better to do, use the skip function please. KTNXBYE.

  Yeah, I agree. There is a lot being said how Facebook is a threat to LinkedIn, but with all this bullshit apps flying left right and center, I seriously doubt it!
