Do you receive annoying and irritating posts in your facebook feeds?

Do you get spam links to pornographic sites in your feeds?

Would you like to stop receiving unwanted Facebook messages?

In this article, I'll show you two methods you can use to leave a facebook group you no longer wish to be a member of.

Facebook Group
Groups allow members to post content such as text, links, media, questions and comments on these items. They are used for collaboration and allow discussions, events, and numerous other activities. They are a way of enabling members to come together online to share information and discuss specific issues. A group is supposed to be a place where people of like minds share subjects of interest. Now it's a never ending torrent of viral news articles, auto-playing videos, awkward political rants, links to offensive pornographic sites and weekly invites to apps from your friends.
