I agree, those are super annoying. What's more annoying is people who decide they need to install every single application. Overally I strongly dislike the whole applications feature. Horrible idea.

I think you can disable it so you wont recieve any invites.

LOL same. I had a long list of them til I removed all..and then kept getting more. >.< I was planning on adding 23082485 applications and then sending it to all the people who kept sending it to me, but that takes up too much time.

ive all ready disabled all emails from face book.

thats easy but how to disable applications.

I mean people say face books clean ect ect,

but some profiles are a really looking junky now with like 100 app's on them some are really useless and junky lol..

I think this is one of face books biggest downfalls in terms of annoying things on the site.

Yah facebooks platform is open so it lets anyone make an app.
Also some of my friends have over 20 apps and its just messy but if you think about it, users stay attached to facebook longer with apps. You always come back to check whats new. Comments isnt the only thing that users just come to check, apps open alot of new doorways but also cause few problems too.

Myspace is going to be going ahead with this too so we'll see how that turns out.

I ignore every request I get for those stupid things lol I hate them. For one, Face Book's profile looks to plan an uncolorful... two, the applications make the profiles load slow and they are dumb! I love MySpace still... always will.

Facebook is the 70's leisure suit of social networking.

Functional, yet lacking style :)

You can block those notifications. :)
If it are just a few annoying friends who keep installing and inviting then just block the invites from those friends.

I love Facebook. The fact that you can't stylize your profile can be seen as a good thing imo. You don't have to worry about going to profiles where their stupid little music player automatically sounds, you don't have to worry about visiting profiles with a tacky, horribly styled profile.

If your invitations got that large, it's because you didn't block them as they came in. You can just block apps or ignore all invites from a friend, as Nora stated.

If you know Friendster, you'll realize that Friendster is somewhat tryin' to copy Facebook by giving out almost useless applications. :sleep1: [/off topic]

I hate that too! Argh. That's the reason why I never came back at Facebook. Just 1 day of signing up and I get loads of those invitations or whatever~ :(

Uh! They drive me nuts. And like 1234567890 times the apps are "do you like me?" "how well do you know me?" etc. I only use like 2 apps. The rest are just lame.

I hate most of the apps. There are a few I like - Honesty Box, About Me Quiz.

Some applications force you to invite 20 people before you can use it. I heard that Facebook is going to make it against the rules to force people to invite friends.

What is extremely annoying is that everyone is adopting the garbage of Facebook Apps.

Almost none of these are more than Garbage - and they polute peoples profiles - and confuse the heck out of alot of the basic interactions that used to be fundamental to MySpace.

"buying you as a Pet" is probably the most annoying thing on the planet! Thanks for ruining everything Facebook!!

it's not like those apps automagically install themselves onto your profile? if you're friends are retarded enough to install a bunch of crap on their profiles, shouldn't you be putting them down instead of facebook? :/ Maybe your friends actually like the 3rd party apps. L A M E

Even though I don't agree with threads from 2007 getting replies... I agree HAHA. Applications are the one thing I don't enjoy or see a purpose.
