[STUFF] Facebook Inadvertently Fixes the App-Wall-Spam Issue

So, if you are like me and play Facebook games and also have a friend or two who do not, you have likely realized that people get annoyed when you game-spam them.

Earlier this month (I think) Facebook copied a useful Google+ feature which actually provides a great way to resolve this problem without being denied (or denying those friends who do play) great virtual swag.

Step One: Compile a list of people who actually play the game (or at least people you want to spam notifications to)

Step Two: Create a List of those Friends
A:

B:
C:
D: Add all the friends from Step One to the list

Step 3: Now, this only applied to wall shares so some shares you'll still have to work for but for those it DOES work for, its simple to only share with the "right" people by choosing the list when you share something.
A:
B:

As a bonus, you can view the list of players of a specific game and you are more likely to catch their wall posts too.
