What are you waiting for?
I first joined fubar in May of 2010 and I thought it was mostly a social site where people meet and chat and for somewhat it is.
But for the majority of it's members it is a highly competetive game to get to the highest level.
It is a reflection and microcosm of the real World where some people are obsessed with material things like bling, credits and
popularity and the rush to get to the top. The Owner of fubar must be an expert on human behavior.
He knows our tendencies and weaknessses. He seems to know what motivates us in the real World and has translated that energy
and drive tnto this game where many of us like in the real World have no time to enjoy the simple things and get stressed out on
getting to the top and being the most popular with the most toys and money or in this case fubucks.
Some members stay online for endless hours at a time and hardly sleep while making profile comments and polishing other members
bling for points in their quest to get to the top of the mountain. Some members spend their hard earned money on such items like
blast , rockstars and yes the biggest toy of them all the all mighty fu- Pony the ultimate material possesion to get them to the
promise land and increase their popularity and vanity. Some members will offer nude pics of themselves in exchange for a bling pack
to help them get to the next level. Being competetive and wanting to be popular as you make your way to the top is not a bad thing.
But in the real World there is a reward for your time and effort and you can enjoy the fruits of your labor.
Unfortunately I do not see the reward or pay off once you get to the highest level of this game except for self gratification
which is part of the human psyche which the inventor of fubar was banking on when he introduced this social site/game 5 years ago.
I have to admit and give the inventor credit for such a brainstorm of a 24 hours a day 7 days a week 365 days a year including
holidays money making idea which capitalizes on human vanity.......
