fbleaveconvoHave you ever been part of the mass message Facebook collision? This can be a bit annoying to leave.

It starts with a well-meaning question usually, or an invite to a get-together.  The next thing you know, you’re getting alerts from 25 other people on the same mass message that just say, “I’m sorry we can’t make it to your party”.

Several years ago this just wasn’t an option.  Scott Stratten (@unmarketing) shares his agony of “Don’t Be That Guy on Facebook“.

How can you stop this?  Finally, Facebook shares the answer.  Note: I’ve upgraded my message to integrate with chat and text message options.

Go to: Actions, Leave Conversation.

For more comic relief, check out Scott’s video: “Why Don’t You Leave Me Alone? A Facebook Song“:
