Thank you, this is absolutely fantastic. You’re a lifesaver.

it’s easier (and more portable) to just click the (invisible until you hover over it) “hide” button, next to the quiz post, then you can chose to HIDE THE QUIZ without hiding the person.

Over time, you will kill off most of the quizes/games etc, and it won’t matter what computer you’re sitting at or what browser you use!

This is perfect!

I totally agree with “It’s pretty annoying, not only I do not give any sh*t about a quiz someone takes, but also makes it very hard to see anything else.”

Thanks so much!

I use Chrome and it is not working. Greasemetal starts up and then disappears.

why install yet another application when all you have to do is click the little button which hides the quizzes? Yes you have to do it for each quiz but you soon find that people are pretty much doing the same quizzes over and over again… works for applications too….

You don’t play mafia wars or farmville or hammerfall??? then just hide the notifications and AMAZING you don’t see them anymore! And all that is built in to facebook –

You’re sick of getting invitations for SPP Pets or licking lollipops (or whatever) on the next invite instead of clicking the ignore button look a fraction lower and there is a block application button… you’ll never get another request from that application… again built directly into facebook…

Amazing stuff that you can do without the need for a specific internet browser or add-on to be installed.
