Facebook if I had to choose.
Since starting University, I've more or less had a falling out with people I don't see on a daily basis (i.e..pretty much everyone). So I use Facebook to keep in contact with all my friends from High School, older friends from AF, the girlfriend and my guildies. I just come to AF to poke around out of curiousity. I spent so much time here just a couple of years ago.
Yes. I have an AF account but I don't have a FB account. AF is far superior.
Facebook but not by much, AF is for talking to people with similar interests while FB is for talking to people i know in real life.
AF as I prefer talking to the people here when at home
AF without a doubt.
I actually enjoy talking with the people here and I have never once regretted making my AF account.
It has already been said but I will say it again if I wish to talk to people in the real world I will just call or e-mail them.
I still like both though.
But I would be more on AF because there is always something to do.
There is something to do in Facebook too though, like games, but less communicating because my friends who I want to talk to might not be online, also I just log in to see comments from my friends or messages.
I can talk with my real friends face to face anyway [except for the ones in another place/country .. and that is mostly why I have fb because my friends are scattered]
But both have advantages. And their pretty different.
You can't be serious? I'm doubting which of those is most poor.
So far Facebook is better for me, eventhough Im rarely on it.
I think that AF has something facebook doesn't: Authenticity. AF has been popular for a very long time and most likely will remain that way, while FB has only gained popularity in the past 2-3 years and will most likely lose popularity in a short period of time since meh, people get bored.
But personally I like AF more because:
- you can make the poor soul happy by giving good reputation and 'Likes'
- you can make the happy soul poor by giving bad reputation and 'Dislikes'
-you can hide your true identity
- it has validated my existence as a human being by showing me that I'm not the only person alive to not have a fb account.
Facebook is filled with drolling idiots who post stuff I saw several years ago. It just depresses me. AF on the other hand stays up to date with net culture and I'm always grateful for that. Speaking of which, have you guys seen this Portal thing? THE CAKE IS A LIE! HAHA!
All I know is, grandmothers don't poke me on animeforum...
<_<;
I like both for different reasons.
On AF, I can talk about things that the majority of my friends aren't into, like anime.
On FB, I can talk about things that the majority of my friends are into, like Minecraft or my weird music tastes.
They both serve their purpose.
Too much of my time has been consumed by facebook.. mindless hours on dumb games like Farmville until I finally realized what I was doing and quit. For that I deleted my facebook.. so I'm going with AF.
Do I think AF is better than facebook? Well I course I do.
I find facebook to be sad and depressing also I never understood why people had to get at least 300+ friends. They are more likely to talk 10-30 of them. Plus, from I've seen of it, it changes to much. So a person like me who hardly goes on it gets easily confused.
The chat sucks on FB.Quote:

I defy you sir! I have 300+ friends and talk to... wait you're right, probably 10 or so on a regular basis. Fml.Quote:

AF is way better than Facebook in my opinion.
For a long time? You barely joined, and that doesn't count since you do not have a definite user experience.
I guess I prefer FB,(between AF friends there) Kishiro seems to be more awesome there. Besides, some of the good members of AF quit and the only way to contact them was by other sources.
ooshy ooshy ooshy
I prefer AF, because I hate FaceBook. I simply do not see a reason to stay on facebook all day(like some people do) playing "FarmVilles"(whatever that is called) and posting random stuff on your wall, laughing from things that are not funny. Mobile Phone is good enough to communicate with my friends.
AF. I got bored with Facebook, now I only use it if I need to ask my friends for something because they don't have an AF account.
For me personally AF is way better . Mainly because the quality of posting is way higher and the vanity on facebook is a bit too much for me .
Anime forum has a lot of the functions Facebook has anyway . And let's not forget all of the bling the users can get here:D
Facebook is obviously better.
My real friends would never go on this, and everyone takes thing too seriously on here.
Facebook is way easier to stay in contact with people. AF is more for just, if you want a place to talk about music or shows or crap like that.
Its harder to post pictures or even status' on here too. o_O; I mean if your life revolves around this site then well hell, congrats to you.
Olanah or whatever your silly Canadian name is PUT A SHIRT ON.
AnimeForum is good for two things, Chat, and trolling the forums. Not that I would know what that's like.
Which means my answer is facebook, because you can troll real people who don't all have weird social issues and mental disorders. It looks like a lot of you complain about lack of quality conversation on facebook.. >.> Are sure sure it's FBs fault that you have no friends and or dumb friends?
FB is so... FB. There's hardly anything you can do on it compared to AF so I obviously like AF better.
What did I just tell you an hour ago Anime. "Oh I'm not like that". You just did it there. It's cause you have no friends in real life. I do have a shirt on Setz. :(
