"like" bombs

Sign in to disble this ad
Anyone do this to one of their Facebook friends?

A like bomb is when you go to someone's first post, then while you scroll back up, like everything that has been posted on their wall.

It blows up their notifications center and turns their wall upside down depending on how they have it set up.

Yes I have done this to a couple of friends before, though I never knew it was called a 'like bomb'. I call it Like-Mania. I'm the only one of my friends who is annoying and immature enough to do stuff like this

How can you set it up that way? I never knew that you could set your wall/timeline up so that any old posts 'liked' or commented upon 'float' back up to the top, as with resurrected threads on forums. I'm aware of the fact that this happens in FB Groups. Posts are arranged so that the most recently commented are at the top. But never knew you could have your wall set up that way.

The only person that I've done it to didn't have this kind of thing happen, so I'm not totally sure. I have seen it happen with groups and pages though. Someone told me that you can do that with your profile, but I didn't ask how because I just wasn't interested enough in digging through my settings to allow this to happen. And I found out this morning that it also floods people news feeds with all of the posts that you liked, so it annoys a bunch of people instead of just one haha (I wasn't wanting to annoy 100+ people by doing this btw, just the one guy)

And yes, I digress and let the average immature teenager in me out once in a while:P I generally keep those intentions pushed down and draw the mature stuff up for the public though.
