Ok so my previous post was a bit of a pain in the butt. Here is another method of completely avoiding quizzes on Facebook. The only requirement is that you use Firefox.
First, install a plugin called Greasemonkey
Next install a script that does all the wonderful magic. Facebook Purity
Restart Firefox, and voila. No more quizzes. You don’t even have to “Hide” them anymore.
I don’t like my news feed filled with quizzes and crap that I really don’t care about. So I thought I would share with everyone how to get rid of them if you don’t know how.
Go to your Facebook home page and on the left side you will see this:
Click on the application that you would like to quiet down and on the right side you will see a hide button. Click that and you can hide from that friend, or the second option is to hide the quiz.
That’s it. No more what superherocursewordfavoriteshittyteams are you. If you like the Browns, become a fan. Don’t fill out a stupid quiz.

I had this stop working for me and nothing would show in the home screen. Just unload the Facebook Purity script, and reinstall it.
