bebo
 
your opinion on it?

Callum 23-12-2009 03:57 PM

Load of ****.

Stu 23-12-2009 03:57 PM

It's a pile of wank. It's for chavs, basically. And everything Patrick said about it in that last thread is made **** of by reputable statistics out there.

Jords 23-12-2009 03:58 PM

I loved it a year back before I met good old Mr facebook, now I realise how crap it is :tongue:

Stephanie 23-12-2009 03:58 PM

Dr.Gonzo 23-12-2009 03:59 PM

Arsewash.

Stu 23-12-2009 03:59 PM

Usually people just use it because it's what all their other mates use, like in Ireland where nobody under eighteen really uses anything else much apart from bebo. Further cementing it's status as a chavtastic piece of ****.

It's for kids to be honest. My daughter has it, because her mates have it, but even she doesn't like it.

Firewire 23-12-2009 04:00 PM

I use it cos my friends do.

I'm not obsessed with it.

And it's quite ****.

Patrick 23-12-2009 04:00 PM

Expect the following post to be the only positive post on this thread because the majority of TiBB Use Facebook:

Bebo is a great site, and like I said in another thread it was once used by 20 and 30 year olds.

Nowadays its used by Teens because the older crowd have went to Facebook.
Personally I think its good because there only is 2 social sites in the UK.
Thats Facebook and Bebo.

Facebook is to boring and complicated and you can tell its more for old people.
Bebo has alot more features, and it has a better layout.
They went through a phase earlier this year where they tried copying Facebook, but thankfully it listened to its users and is back to the way people liked it.

Bebo is a great way of making friends, keeping in contact and expressing your opinions on things and sharing your intrests through making your on profile.


I have been a member on it for 3 years and its still going strong as a site.


Like I said though, dont expect anyone else on here to like Bebo because they think its chavy when its not.

Its not for chavs.
If you look at how it use to be it was far from chavtastic.

But now there is a few chavs on it, which is annoying but tbh the majority of its users arent chavs and are just on it to keep in contact with their mates.

Chavs usually add me a few times but I just decline them.
So seriously, not the entire site is full of chavs.

its good
i make skinz
mine

Stu 23-12-2009 04:03 PM

Plenty of young people use Facebook. Seriously, you haven't got a clue. Your just pulling poor assumptions out of your ass, Patrick.

Beastie 23-12-2009 04:03 PM

I have not logged into my bebo account in months.

Jack_ 23-12-2009 04:03 PM

It was good back in the days of 2006/2007 and before, but after they added apps it started to go downhill. The new features got worse and worse, and then they started to copy Facebook when it was becoming increasingly more popular. They changed the profile layout, the members told them it was shite, they didn't listen, and so the majority of them left. Served them right.

I checked today and it seems the old profile layout is back, but it's far too late now. Bebo has had its day and will soon become a thing of the past.

Beastie 23-12-2009 04:04 PM

I have 2 cousins who are aged 12 and 14 who have facebook!

Stephanie 23-12-2009 04:04 PM

everyone i know has facebook, and i have over 400 friends on there (yes i know them all)

Exactly. Bebo may be easier to use, but twats covered their pages in endless photo albums, themes and apps to the point where most Bebo pages were simply impossible to navigate without the guidance of a bottle of scotch and four valium.

Beastie 23-12-2009 04:06 PM

To be honest I don't go on facebook much either, the last time I went on I just wanted to check if someone, who was in the same school year as me as had their baby yet.. lol how sad am I?

Not many use Apps anymore, like I said it tried to copy Facebook but failed.
Apps arent used that much on it though, and tbf it wont be a thing of the past aslong as people still use it.

Like I said Facebook and Bebo are the only two social sites in the UK.

What person uses Myspace if there not from America or if there not a singer.

Twitter is used by Celebrities thats it.

Facebook is still so boring and plain compared to Bebos layout.

Tom4784 23-12-2009 04:06 PM

Oh Patrick don't you remember what I told you about issuing your assumptions as fact? Facebook has a lot more features then Bebo and is probably used by more teens then Bebo is. Bebo is a site for chavvy kids they outnumber any adults using it by probably a large amount, it's unsophisticated and it's got nowhere near the amount of features facebook has.

And that's exactly why it got worse. I couldn't stand, and avoided any page that was full of apps telling them 'How Good R U In Bed?'. It would take you half an hour just to find the Comments box. :bawling:

Stu 23-12-2009 04:08 PM

Nobody outside America uses MySpace?

Oh dear.

1. Saying FB is used by more teens than Bebo, is such a lie.
Because its not, and most teens join Facebook and then dont bother with it anymore.
I use Bebo and Facebook and its quite easy to know FB is used by people over 30.

2. If you actually used Bebo you would know its not for Chavs.

3. FB Doesnt have more features than Bebo, just because FB is packed with Apps doesnt make a diffrence.
Bebo profiles have alot more stuff on them that would keep you on the site for more than 10 minutes.
