What is a poke war?
A poke refers to constant exchange of pokes back and forth between two users. Poke have no purpose and usually ends when one party gives up and decides to stop poking back. There’s no real end game if you make up your mind to start a poke war, unless you plan to persevere enough to out-poke your opponent.
How to reject a poke
You can always ignore a poke from someone you don’t want to poke back.You delete Pokes by clicking the gray “X” so you won’t have to see the notification. If the notifications persist,you can always block the sender as an option, especially if you aren’t friends with them.
Facebook also prevents multiple pokes from someone you haven't replied their poke, that way you are safe from being harassed by some relentless 'pokers'
