My thoughts exactly, a perfect example is when folk spend time attracting others to their account then ' unfriend' them at their first little spat, makes me laugh that one even though I'm not on Facebook.

Aye, it's fascinating to watch. Unfortunately I've got a few on my friends list, people I've known all of my adult life, who just do things they really wouldn't in real life. Often over politics. Why are you getting shirty over voting choices online when I've seen you debate sensibly and with humour down the pub after a skilful?

It just seems to facilitate some terrible tendencies.
