Never had an account, my daughters did and often opened /entered sites that was nothing but dissing avenues for all sorts of delinquents, maybe there are some sites on there that have accurate or meaningful information worth reading or participating in but not for me personally.

Social media is nothing more than an outlet for propaganda. Period.

I have Facebook just for the marketplace. Its where i sell saws and find the deals on Stihls and other worthwhile saws plus any other junk i might see a use for. Also its "in person" deals which allows me to look over a saw before I hand any cash over.

We have all seen how easy it is for unscrupulous persons to outright steal from unsuspecting ones due to the ease of advertising and the distance between the advertiser and the customer who most of the time is on the losing end of the deal.

Your reputation should stay the same if you get rich or poor.
When money is more important to you in the short term it will define you in the long term.
Life can be unfair/hard how you deal with it defines us.

Some people take the easy way not the right way. Then they get all offended when no one helps them out.

I won’t say this right but here goes

Not long ago a person EARNED a reputation by hard work, honesty, etc

In the Information Age some/many/most (not all) of the reputations aren’t earned, they are CREATED by smart online manipulation like social media

Generally by the person benefiting from it or those who leech off that person’s fame and fortune

It’s a house of cards and doesn’t take much to bring it down as we have all too often seen

If it’s not real in the first place why care about it

When it all goes to *s-word you pull up stakes, move on, and start the cycle of lies all over again

It's like I tell all the guys I work with and around, all you have is your name. It takes years to get a good reputation where your name gets around and instead of looking for work you have companies calling you because they want you on their jobs. It takes very little time to develop a bad name/rep where no one wants to work with you and when that happens good luck getting rid of it, people always remember the bad.

i deleted my facebook acct years ago. dont miss it a bit.
But the comedic gold you miss out on.

Question of the day.

Does a person's reputation not mean anything to them?
Dolla dolla dolla bill yo.

One problem is no one shuns the scumbags anymore. So why worry about being one.

Are you saying losers get rewarded in todays society?![/QUOTE]

Seems that way.

Or there "personal bad habits" get the blame amd people give them a break before the walk the line again.
