Attending...Maybe Not

Tuesday, May 19, 2009
You know what really grinds my gears? Event invites on Facebook. It irks me to no end!

Ever check your Facebook and on your homepage it’ll say 6 New Messages, you’re like ‘oh snap, who sent me a message??’ come to look on your message page and it’s ALL party promotions. And even if you decline the event they STILL send messages. Shouldn’t there be something that automatically erases events and all messages once you decline?

Oh and please don’t invite me to an event when you’re clearly in a different state. Am I really going to fly out there, is it really that important to me? Hell no! Now I know it can be a struggle for promoters. I know they wanna get the word out, get people to come but really guys, do we need the 10 messages throughout the day of the event. Don’t send me a message saying such and such event in less than 4 hours. Yes I know that, I see my clock, tell me something I don’t know. All the info I need to know is on the event page, so don’t send me anything else unless you’re telling me the event is cancelled, nothing more, nothing less. And doesn’t it irk you when different people send the same invite? It’s just too much, too much.

I just wanted to get that one out, share any of my pain? Let me know!
