Facebook Game Requests – do you love or loathe them?

I think we all have “that friend” who seems to spend their days on Facebook playing Mafia Wars or Candy Crush Saga.  Not content with whiling away their hours, they send out more game requests that humanly possible…

For me, I don’t think there is anything much more irritating on Facebook than logging in to dozens of notifications about pointless activities. Yes, I am a miserable git!  (I am waiting for the first person to say the whole of Facebook is pointless too…)

On a more serious note, the mass of game request notifications can often mean you miss more important notifications unless you do some major scrolling.

There are two ways you can block Facebook game requests and notifications, I cover both in the video.  A full transcript and text with screenshots is below for those who prefer to read.
