    I voted Facebook because I don't use twitter so it's my primary way of snooping on old friends, catching up, etc. but then I realized that I'm on ClutchFans way more so maybe I voted incorrectly

    Back in college, I was forced onto facebook by some friends. I have long since deleted my profile and deleted those friends.

    Easy, clutchfans. I used to be on FB a lot but it burned out, clutchfans is getting closer to burning out for me too. I'v gotten way to addicted to this site, there's got to be better things to spend time doing then posting about basketball all day.

    I log into Clutchfans as soon as I get to work. I usually browse on my phone (not logged in unless I find a comment that needs a response immediately) on weekends when not home, while taking a dump or just chillin on the couch. I really enjoy the community here. I know when and news regarding Houston sports, other teams, local news and even random current events; Clutchfans will have it immediately. Clutchfans will also have all of the updates, pics, links, updates, and so on. I also enjoy the hangout, D&D and of course Unsorted.

    My wife teases me about always looking at it, as if I am addicted lol. I tease her about her real housewives of blah blah and bachelor shows. She watches her drama **** on TV and I watch sports and browse the best sports forum on the net.

    Facebook is nothing but a one upping piece of **** website. Everything and everyone on there is just pretending to be better than their peers, friends, coworkers, acquaintances and etc. It's quite pathetic if you ask me. If you really had what everyone wanted, then you wouldn't have to brag about it online! People that pretend to show off, don't have ****. If they do, they are lonely inside and are desperate for attention. There is more to life than pretending to have it all online, while living in a trailer. Some might not agree, but that's just how I feel.

    I have a twitter, but I only read it for sports/news/current events/etc. I never tweet. I compare it to Facebook or Instagram. All of these social networks are there just to boost the wannabe's, passive aggressive. jealous and losers ego's without the repercussions of dealing with the emotions/expressions of a physical being in your presence.

    Clutchfans is a one of a kind site. I am happy to be a part of it. Clutchfans keeps it real and that's what it's all about here.

    i'd choose facebook, i have friends on facebook whom i know and socialize with in real life. And we schedule a lot of events on facebook, like movies, basketball, concerts, etc.

    Clutchfans is a virtual world to me.

    TBH I could live without both.

    As long as I have SMS and some place to read and discuss basketball, I'm good.

    With the good stuff there's the bad. FB has its share of pointless/annoying posts (ie food pictures), and CF has its share of trolls.

    Nobody will ever best his career high 38.23 FER (Fap Efficiency Rating).
    I trump him in Fap Shares per 48, but it all goes down the drain when Jontro whips out his PFR (Pure Fap Rating).

    Favorite thing about this place is the speed at which news is updated. Even espn sites don't have what we've got. I remember being so frustrated ju the mac yao era when I would over hear someone saying one of them got hurt, I would be dying for a source and couldn't find one before this place.

    As for this topic I would think it's more appropriate to say would you rather have clutchfans only, or social media in all only....

    A 99er wouldn't have even felt the need to start this thread.

    I do not have facebook (or twitter or anything), the only page I use is Linkedin and that is work related.

    So it is easy for me. Clutchfans. This is basically the only site I visit often (except my e-mail ofcourse).
