I refused to join thefacebook.com because it seemed like a big popularity contest.

I got sucked into joining so that i could view a group a friend told me about.

I've actually had some really good experiences with facebook since -- reconnecting with people and all that -- but i just wanted to preserve this for posterity. I whited out the names of the 10 members, but i definitely have the list, and am tempted to send a sort of "I Know What You Did Last Summer On Facebook" e-mail before we graduate in May. People have suggested that i request to join the group ('cause that would just be funny), e-mail them, or report them. I was really creeped out ('cause this is a whole different ballgame than the pseudo-stalking that is kind of flattering) and a bit pissed when i first found out (My fic journal and my personal journal are separate, but that's just for factors of convenience, and i make no secret of my identity, but the insulting/stalkery nature of the facebook group bothered me.) but i'm mostly over it now.
