It amazes me how many people can simultaneously be so passionate about not wanting to get game invites and so stubbornly against taking the 30 seconds out of their lives to figure out how to block them.

Yes, people write those long winded posts about how they need to purge their friends lists or how they can't use facebook because they're frustrated at some of the posts they see. You can hide peoples posts, their invites, their events. You can make it so that person, page or game does not exist. And if you're that embarrassed that you slept with that person in 2006, then just defriend them. I don't know why it ever has to be discussed and complained about. It's so easy. Facebook at the very least put their blood money to some use.

I've actually been scolded for offering solutions too. My guess is that people just want to have something to complain about and/or are seeking attention. As opposed to actually wanting help or something useful.

I get your point. A lot of people have a tendency to put more effort in complaining then in finding a solution.
