Okay so nothing against Facebook games (Mafia Wars, Farmville, Hotel City…) but they fill up my Facebook page like there is no tommorow. All of my friends and family memebers updates are always something about a gun, cow, or accessory. In the past I have un-friended people, yes family included because I was so sick of seeing all the game updates and requests and missing out on wall posts that I may actually care about. I know it is nothing against the people that play the games, but for those of us who don’t it can be frustrating to dig past all those in the News Feed. Well I finally figured out how to Hide those applications!
- First go to Facebook and check out the News Feed.
- Then, go to the person who is posting about a game.
- Go to the right of the excerpt and the word “HIDE” should be showing.
- Click HIDE
- Then Hide the application!

So far what I have Hidden:
Is there a Facebook game you are addicted too or one you can’t stand?

I am pretty addicted to Bejeweled…I also play Family Feud and MahJongg. I think everything else is blocked!

I Hate the game posts too! They fill up the pages with game stuff that means nothing to me since I don’t play the games. I did ask FB to ‘hide’ them, then all of a sudden, there they are again. Wish I could permanently make them go away.
I too have nothing against the people who play them but why must their results (or whatever that all means) have to be posted on facebook?
I will try again, perhaps when FB did recent updates it deleted all of my options to block the games.

Hey, thanks so much for posting this. While I am not into the whole appy on facebook, I have friends and family who are. I have nothing against it, but I just personally don’t care for it. So glad I don’t have to wade through them anymore.
