In my experience, few people really ever use the “poke” feature. ABC News calls it the “digital equivalent of waving at someone from across a crowded room.” Others would call it the online version of a “what’s up?” text message.  
Either way it’s an awfully harmless little feature… unless, it seems, you have a restraining order filed against you preventing you from contacting the person you poked.
