OK, everyone who replied with something along the lines of "Facebook, hell no!" or "This is a terrible idea", please train "satire comprehension" to 1 immediately. It's understandable you've neglected it as it's not one of the skill books you get for free in the tutorial and won't help you in PvP, but it only takes a few minutes to train to level 1, so please get on it. For more challenging texts like "A Modest Proposal", you will need to train to higher levels, but to understand the OP's post really requires only the most rudimentary understanding of satire and reading comprehension (which you should already have trained to at least III)

…and in turn, you will pick up a book on Poe's Law and on the unfailing ability of PR people to blindly pick up horrible and idiotic ideas no matter what.

I do not wish to share my real life in eve with my fictitious life in Facebook.

Dumbing down of Eve Online will result in it's destruction...

The future of all advertising and especially WoW is converging upon Facebook.

From law enforcement to online voting, Facebook will be the portal for everything we don't do in our digital lives, I think it is time that EVE jumps off the express train to Facebook before it is too late. In the very near future we will be seeing the brandings Mac (thank god) and (unfortunately) PC replaced with a special operating system created by the NSA with the blue tones of the Facebook logo.

Every ISK earned should be automatically published to Facebook, so my grandparents who don't know what ISK or Facebook is can see that I am wasting my life.

The way it sits now EVE is less than 1% integrated into Facebook, by years end I suspect it will thankfully not break the 1% goal as long as we join together and let CCP know that WE AREN'T FACEBOOK, you, me, your family, and all good people of the world are citizens of New Eden, not Adbook, facespam, etc.

I deleted my facebook page some time ago because every time I logged on to it, I could not stop noticing that it was full of stupid people, so its not for people like me.

Facebook is dead, long live Spacebook.

Sanity is fun leaving the body.
