Unbelievable! Are folks actually signing up for this?

[power321]

This is why I don't use facebook

[Mistermoonlight]

They're doing it for Twitter as well:

This application will be able to:

•Read Tweets from your timeline.
•See who you follow, and follow new people.
•Update your profile.
•Post Tweets for you.

And that's what they post as the positive reasons for signing up!

[TheFlashFan]

not going to get me to sign up the fools lol.

[power321]

i rarely tweet anymore

[Aeryn]

Fuck the CW. Bunch of dumb asses.

And Twitter is gay.

[AntiArbitrator]

I never give any of those sites permission to post as me. I don't understand exactly why they use that wording, but I don't trust them.

Naive people might think its harmless and give them permission.

[animalpragmatism]

what ever way cooler here with my REAL family !

Can I ask why not?

[ashley]

tweeting a bit anoying phrasing everything into just a few charicters its a pain in the but

[Aeryn]

You're right, Ashley. I fucking HATE Twitter.

[ashley]

i mean its a ok idea but twitter really needs some work id rather come here or to the boards Harley and I made. Btw jeff this board is alot more together than ours but her we tried you can at least respect that hun.

[Aeryn]

Twitter is GAY.

[ashley]

yup curved like a bandanna

[melissa197833]

I already have facebook for 3 years now.I hate twitter people use that to cause fights and drama

[Mistermoonlight]

You know, sadly, that's what I see on Twitter a lot myself.

We use Twitter here on The Evicted to get out information about what we have going on, and more importantly to try to reconnect with the folks from the orginal days of the WB and the CW Lounge, but unfortunately, like you've seen, there is an awful lot of drama there.

As part of of our rules for mods and admins we do not get involved with that

[mercurytheatre]

I usually tweet to find old CWer's.....and to try and get some celebrity to notice me.

I have had a few responses.....like Iliza Schelsinger....and The Greg Kihn Band. ;D

I won't either thats why I never go on it....Facebook I kind of connect with family I don't see often. Plus two of my friends are in a local Band out on Long Island so they send me event invites for their gigs and me, my mom, and my Aunt go dance to the music they sing which is mostly older things like Kc and the Sunshine Band, Donna Summer ECT.Sometimes my cousins and uncle will come and its a nice evening out, especially summer when the weather is nice, they play outside at beach places ECt,

We went to see them a couple of time when we first met them and now since we see them so much we have become friendly with them Fan wise.

That's such a wonderful experience, isn't it? Back in the day, when I used to write a live music segment in our local paper, I and the two girls I lived with would sometimes have the bands over for dinner.

They always appreciated a home-cooked meal. And we made friendships that lasted a lifetime.

Actually, that's what we used to say all the time.

One of the girls (my GF) was brunette, the other was a long-legged blonde. Come to think about it I DID look a little like Jack Tripper back in those days. And when we all three went out together we used to get the most amazing reactions from people.

Let me guess... you also like to cook, am I right?

(I had always pictured and wished that Jack Tripper would go out with Janet, the brunette).

[Mistermoonlight]

Actually I do.

My grandmother got me started when I was a little boy. I've had a few jobs involving food. At one time I baked pastries that were sold in a local coffee shop, and I also did a cooking show on radio in in Mississippi, then later on in Louisiana .

[Watchtower]

Unbelievable!

I used to use twitter a lot. Then I deleted my account, then I signed back up sometime later, mainly to follow the cyclist.

John Cabrera got me into Twitter. It was Myspace where I had first sent him a message years ago and he added me as a friend after the message. He is a pretty nice guy. He has a decent blog too. I think he was on FB too, but I might have deleted him from my friends list when I was cleaning house. I tend to do that once in a while.

Anyway, I don't use the twitter much anymore, but I look at it once in a while.
