Obviously I am an utter newbie there (I've had an account for a while, but just started using it this week), and am used to LJ/DW, where my account is my living room and I can tell people I don't appreciate them being rude to me here, but does one's Facebook wall not work that way? How does one deal with someone on one's FL who decides to be a troll about something one has posted, when the rest of the time they seem to be fairly decent? (this is a fellow Bujold listee -- or, rather, he's a former Bujold listee -- and he's on the Bujold Facebook group).
Is the only option simply to defriend them once and for all? Throw the baby out with the bathwater?
Is there a tutorial out there for how to work Facebook on a social rather than technical level? That will teach me how to keep people from being ugly to me on my own wall? Because if there isn't I suspect that's going to be the end of my personal social interaction there. If I can't avoid people being rude directly at me there the way I can here, then I'm not comfortable there. And "just don't interact back" is not an option. I am not a doormat and refuse to become one.

Seems like Facebook would want their users to be able to assign a pic to all cross-posted posts. Or to not put anything if there isn't a pic. Anything but that butt-ugly gray spot. Oh, well.
