GOT v Twitter

[chicoazul]

One thing I will say with an open heart is that this place is more ferocious than Twitter. You can learn the streets and the game on here, without getting banned, then Twitter is a doddle. The campaigns on here only for the elite.

Facebook and Twitter are dying like.

We lose more fans on our facebook page through account deactivations than we get new fans.

More and more are seeing them for what they are - mood zapping, time bandits. They're no good for you.

People used to say social media meant the end for forums, but I always felt the opposite was true. They allowed forums to become more 'known' to mainstream.

Pipe down until you get Elon Musk and John Aldridge on here then we can deal.

Give me your lunch money.

In all seriousness @chicoazul - as much as I laugh/value your WUM antics on Twitter (especially as it takes you away from causing me misery and problems here), you can spend your time a lot better surely?

It can't be healthy to spend so much time playing with puppets on Twitter?

You tweeted more last week than GOT did in 10 months*.

Spend your time better?

Do more match previews instead...

What?

* might have just guessed and made this up

Imagine @davek on Twitter.

I'd have notifications turned on.

The top 5 posters on GOT deserting for Twitter would ruin this place.

Absolutely agree.

A forums lives and dies on its long term, established members sticking around and posting content. Fine if you agree with them, even better if you don't.

Utter bollocks I'm afraid.

Depends how you gauge top 5

Just something I’m pondering, where is best to post here or there? Be honest.

ETCWC was the pinnacle

Utter bollocks I'm afraid.

Can we test this with a poll? Something like "If Davek took to Twitter and abandoned GOT, would you use Twitter and ditch the forum".

I know you're going to tell me to 'koff fwiw. But y'know.

I think part of that is why it's wrong.

In my opinion - whatever criteria you apply, any 'top 5' posters if binned or left, are soon replaced and often forgot.

Smaller forums then perhaps but it's ruthless this place and it's the best way to be.

I suppose there's a massive membership here and so long as 5 prominent posters didn't leave overnight it wouldn't really be noticed.

More like "I wonder whatever happened to...."
