Short Rant: Your Facebook Wall

So,

Over the last few weeks it has come to my attention that people can in fact shut down their wall to stop people from commenting on pictures, profile "is" statements and making comments in general. If you have done this by accident, via new facebook and didn't realize it, I forgive you.............Now go change your privacy settings. If you have done this on purpose, and continue to write random crap on everyone elses walls, while not allowing people to write on yours; here are some suggestions/thoughts for you:

1: Perhaps you would like to opt for a regular email service like Yahoo, Hotmail or GMail. All these allow you to maintain good privacy and no one will have to listen to you babble on in public with no way to retaliate.
2: Perhaps there is someone specific you don't want to comment on your wall. PS not everyone has to be your "facebook friend" DELETE THEM or use the BLOCK option.
3: If you don't like people to know about you: DON'T JOIN A NETWORK.
4: If you don't like people to know about you, not even your "facebook" friends, perhaps you should get rid of facebook. There is a delete button in the edit profile link.

Frankly facebook is pointless if you are not willing to communicate.
Just had to get that out there. I can get off my soap box (for now)
