I won't say its a good decision , but in a way , its not so bad if you see. Facebook is a big distraction for students. I have seen people's grades go down because of facebook , i've seen relationships break because of facebook. Actually , facebook is a way for people gain fake pride. You upload your pics and statuses, if someone likes them , then your self worth goes up , and if your status gets 0 likes , that's the sign of a big loser. I won't be a total hypocrite and pretend that i was always against facebook. I was on facebook for the last 2 years , but then deleted my account because i wanted to get a higher gpa. Besides, i decided i was way too mature for that sort of ****. I feel way better after deleting my account. Suddenly , i have so much time for other stuff - studies , sports and actually meeting friends that are in my city instead of writing on their wall. Just my 2 cents. I'm not trying to act wise and stuff , by telling you that facebook sucks , but just telling you my personal experience. If you all disagree , there is absolutely no problem as like you , i was once a facebook user. However , though they have banned it , i hope there won't be strict punishment for people who try to access it through proxies and all.
