Someone please detonate an EMP in the Facebook and Twitter datacenters, society would be much more better off without those...

I fell for the misleading title, I was disappointed when I saw that they pay in "credits"

 

[memadmax]

god, the games on facebook(games by zynga) are so lame...

Forcing people to watch ads now? Seems like Facebook is running out of juice. Good thing I'm not a facebookaholic.

All of this is just to increase the number of people who spend real cash on Facebook

"Facebook gamers will soon get paid for watching advertisements, only they won't be earning cold hard cash. Instead, users will be given Facebook Credits which can be used in Facebook games or other related applications."

So in other words....Facebook is still lame...

I just never got the point of Facebook- it never really caught my attention as something I would want to use. Ok I've put all of my information (probably more than the hackers stole from PSN) on the internet (yeah really smart) and now I'm going to go around poking people and making people think my life is so great. Yeah sounds fun, and if I get bored I can literally waste my life playing pathetic games almost designed for 7 year olds. Heaven forbid my child ever tries to interupt me while I'm playing Farmville!

Facebook isn't forcing anyone to watch ads. They're letting people watch it, if they WANT to, to earn a few Facebook credits to be used in games.

thanks but no thanks

 

[eddieroolz]

I would do it but the non-cash reward part just turned me off.

Otherwise I'd just buy a PC and display ads incessantly for some good cash lol.

 

[reggieray]

They couldn't pay me to join Facebook to begin with.

 

[alhanelem]

if my mother founds out about this she is going to go nuts.... oh boy

 

[jalek]

Commericals on Farmville?
Whatever. Maybe they can start charging Zynga credits for all the spam their players generate.

 

[dioxholster]

really desperate.

 

[lordoflight]

I don't have a Facebook account.

Sorry but getting credit is not getting paid!

I thought that was too good to be true.
