Follow us on Twitter??? - 11/18/2010 6:04:28 PM

Status: offline 		I just saw this and clicked on it because i was concerned that the discussion board was going to be feeding into twitter.  Can someone please explain this concept.  I don't twitter so i am a little concerned that a message board/website i am on actively is now going to be twittering. 

The other thing i was curious about is it says this -- Welcome to the official Collarme.com Twitter page... Follow us to get the latest news, info on our parties, special contests and more!

Umm what news, parties, special contests? 

Can someone explain how this twitter thing will work?  Thanks.

Good grief.  Don't needlessly get your underoos in a twist.  They're not going to be echoing users posts on Twitter.

I guess you'll need to start using Twitter to find out!

Status: offline 		Stef, why all the sarcasm.   I didn't think asking such a simple explanation of what the site plans or something that is new would have YOUR panties in a wad that you have to spew sarcasm in response. Sounds like i hit a nerve unknowingly, but i am not sure why that would do so.  Not everyone is as informed as you seem to be.  And well, i  i would imagine that this site would offer and announce everything they do on twitter here to the actual MEMBERS of the site.  So i was curious as to what all that is about as i didn't know CM had parties or contests etc, and if they do, i am missing the announcements and i may be interested in same.  Gee, take me out back and shoot me for asking questions about something new especially when it involves another site i don't plan on and never have been a part of.

I tried to imagine what CM tweets might be like:

_____ has a new conspiracy theory.

_____ is still using apostrophes for plurals.

_____ suggested seeing a pro domme.

_____ really wants to know what "Tal" means.

_____ is still obsessed with illegal immigration.

_____ is the newest troll.

_____ still thinks he's an independent.

_____ couldn't think of a substantive argument, so s/he snarked about spelling instead.

_____ says it's not cheating if the wife is in a coma.

_____ is the first person in CM history to discover a fake.

_____ set the kitchen on fire again.

_____ wonders if anyone has noticed the preponderance of fat people in the lifestyle.

_____ pointed out huffily that BDSM is not a lifestyle.

_____ is a new dom from Walla Walla.

_____ is awaiting approval.

_____ refudiates Obamacare.

_____ needs to get laid.

_____ continues to bump his dryer lint thread.

_____ remains a drama llama.

_____ compared atheists to leeches.

_____ compared theists to spambots.

_____ admits having had a good day.

_____ wins.

hmmmmmm......I wonder who THIS would be?  *snort*  dc, you're such a card!

And Angel, don't feel bad, I have no idea what all the fuss is about twitter either......tho, I'm not too terribly afraid of being outed there.....no one knows who I am, well, a few do, but they aren't likely to be putting that out there either.  Hell, I can barely get around facebook!

Status: offline 		LOL, stef is right, if you want to find out about those things, you need to join Twitter *weg*. As a confession, I just joined Twitter strictly to follow the site happenins, no telling what CM might put on there in the way of NEWS about the site and happenings about the site. barely, its like a blurb/blog/latest just breaking news kind of place.. I wouldn't worry if I were you.

Status: offline 		VAA, so you are going to offer and announce things on twitter but NOT announce the same things on CM for members?  That members of Collarme are going to HAVE to join twitter in order to know about things listed like parties or contests FOR CM.  Am i understanding that correctly?  I don't want to join twitter, but as a member of this site i am interested in things like contests and parties etc.  I don't think this site should force members to sign up for a different site just to hear announcements about things happening on the site they are a member of.  Hopefully i am misunderstanding and the announcements will be both on twitter and CM.

As for the discussion board being on there -- let's just say i am completely computer illiterate and i simply thought that the site may start the RSSing or RRSing whatever its called that little box on top of the message boards on on the profile side, over on Twitter.    And that made me uncomfortable as i joined this site and post on this site, i would rather not have it broadcasted on other sites.  So it was a relief when it was stated that won't be happening.   Which is why i asked the questions i did because i wanted to understand how it would work.

And please call me angel or barelynangel.  Thank you.

angel

Status: offline 		yeh I don't get the twitter thing either. If there are going to be contests, games, ect., why not put it up where we are now? That little side panel that is currently announcing following on twitter, might be used for contest links. I don't tweet. But I like contests.

Status: offline 		barelynangel: at present, there are no contests, games etc. on site. There truly is no need to worry about being left out. There ARE people that to use the twitter site, and the site is just trying to be more rounded. Why in the world should the site penalize the very same members they are trying to offer a new service be trying to penalize them at the same time. It is a new feature, such as being able to use an iphone, noone is MAKING you use the iphone, neither will you be FORCED to join twitter, or be left out.
Again,it would make no sense for the site to favor twitter users over others. I'm confused as to why it is so worriesome and confusing. Do you use all the features the site has to offer now? Are you penalized for the ones you don't use? Are there not features that you use and like, that in all probability, other users could give a shit about? A LOT of people use twitter, even though you don't.

So long as forum posts and profiles don't get echoed to twitter then that seems fine to me.
