Who else is not on social networks?

I have a G+ Account (because Google forced me into it..and I like my name being displayed also :D), really don't have much of a use for it, other than it accommodating my Gmail account.

Used Twitter, got bored with it: And I despise of Facebook.

Not me.

I have FB deactivated, and don't use my Twitter account.
Facebook scared the bejeezuss out of me when it scooped all my contacts, including work contacts, clients and some people I worked for but fell out with, others who I hated but needed to keep, and sent them all imvites.
I definitely had not ticked that box.

I tried it a year later and it kept telling me who a very wealthy client was meeting, her itinerary, contacts and schedule. I emailed her saying I was invading her privacy, but turned out she had given up Facebook in her 60's as it scared her. The contact was correct but the meeting was not. I had joined Facebook to try and find old school friends. Not a one.
(maybe they hid)

I would have tried Twitter more to follow a few select forums, but I couldn't fathom it. It also keeps wanting to patch me in with old contacts.
And I don?t like trolls.
LinkedIn would have been good for work contacts, but 10 years too late for me.

AC only, with some Amazon forums, HDTVTest for a time, that's it.
AC is by far the best, with my little experience.

I'm only on a sports forum and AC. Been off of FB for about 18 months and I don't miss it. If friends or family want to contact me they can call, text, email, IM, Viber, etc.

No 'social media' for me, and never have, because I don't like the members: dimwits, fascist acronyms, and employers.
 
Nope. Nada. Never again. You want me? Effin' call or text me.

Agree as well - and no social media - but I have to admit, for 15 years, I would text somebody first rather than call them. It's just me, I think I prefer the time to think rather than goof over the phone and regret it later. Family and close friends excepted. I'm a textaholic.

Nobody knows how much I don't know.

If there are 2 phrases I never want want to hear again are "like us on facebook and follow us on Twitter." What a waste of time. I have 3 kids under 7 and my wife and I both work shifts. I don't have time for that crap.

My god. I hear that phrase so much its so damn annoying now. Keep your crap to yourself with that Like us on Facebook stuff. All the companies are doing is getting free promotions from the fools who like that stuff.

Agreed. But I do worry that it puts unfair restrictions on those of us who don't comply. I / we have bigger life issues, but this has been really starting to bug me. If you're not in sometimes you don't exist, and can not avail of some service or promotion or other. Can't think of an example though.

I haven't used Facebook in over 4 years...and have NEVER used Twitter. Somehow, I don't think there's anything, anything at all I'm missing out on...or did I totally misinterpret that?

Contests on a lot of tech sites require a Facebook or twitter and I have neither. Hell a lot of contests anywhere want you to go on Facebook and all that.

Can we add "selfie" to that list too?

Getting sick of hearing all these phrases, and what I find most funny is that no one I know is on twitter and people that have a fb account no longer update it. It reminds me of the early 2000's when every ad was followed by .com
Now my wife needs me to do something, no wait, now my kids are fighting, oh hold on, let me take a selfie....
