Originally Posted By Liberty Belle sun-n-fun, try searching for "Laughingplace" as just one word (no quotations) - that might help. Otherwise, if you go to the LP mag group and look on the right side, the main LP group should be listed there as a "similar group" or something like that.

There's a reason you don't talk to people for 25 years. Because you don't particularly like them! Besides, I already know what the captain of the football team is doing these days: mowing my lawn.<<

If it gets too cluttered, with too many 'status updates' and 'video posts' and 'picture changes' it becomes too much. I've tried tweaking the controls, but it seems I'm always missing updates from my sister or close friends, and get constant updates on people I haven't seen in 25 years and don't really even know.

Originally Posted By Lisann22 I have enjoyed knowing more about my fellow LPers - JiM I always like your pics, they make me laugh. I've caught up with 2 old classmates and that's been a good thing but I'm not all that interested in going there with more classmates. So yeah, RockyMtnMinnie I agree.

Originally Posted By Lisann22 I honestly just not sure what to do with Facebook?

All the applications while fun seem to overwhelm me when I'm really busy and do not have the time for them. Then I feel like I suck as a friend for not playing or responding. LOL It's a vicious cycle.

Originally Posted By FiveBearRugs I guess there's some other LPers who I need to add...lol... Btw, I hear that Mob Wars has some new stuff unlocked at Level 80...annnnnnnnd there's a similar game called Mafia Wars.
