Hello mums, dads, husbands, wives and the free & singles - come join us on twitter!

I was worried cos Andrea mentioned a couple of threads on here - Buttergate for example - if Buttergates OP gave permission then that's fine - but I do have a feeling that MSE own the threads..............and can use them as they wish. in which case, I think I will be finding another forum.

No thanks. I can't get on with Twitter. And I find it so annoying that you can only have the same number of characters as a text message on each post/tweet. How are you supposed to have a long debate??

Please do follow us, and let your friends know too. You never know, we might follow you back!

Really??? Would you? I don't know if I'll be able to contain my excitement...:cool:

Bit patronizing, no?

But - I don't want you following me back! !!!!!! - Stalking is against the law!

This is the end of MSE as we know it. I knew when Martin sold it off changes would come. and here they come - we are now being touted as a 'social media site'! affiliated to Twitter .............(oh the shame).

I had been about to post a thread but won't now.

Presumably that wasn't the intention of the change, but I suspect that others will also think twice about what they post.

I doubt you could have a long or intelligent debate with Twittlers, or whatever they call themselves. I can imagine someone from MSE making a sensible and well-argued post, and the reply from the Twittler being along the lines of "It just is, end of!"

Perhaps we should have some lengthy discussions about how Twitter is a place for morons.

Tiddlywinks

Twitter is a place for the self-obsessed who think that the world revolves around them and that we are all hanging on their every word.

Oh, and as a popularity contest to get as many followers as you can so that you can boast about it.

Gigervamp

Ahem. I'm on Twitter and I'm neither self obsessed or a moron.

Having said that, although I follow Martin Lewis' tweets, I won't be following the forum Twitter. I had a look at it and I really don't see the point in having a forum Twitter feed.

Jojo_the_Tightfisted

No thanks. I've got friends on Twitter who might recognise me.

I'd rather keep a vague semblance of anonymity, as nobody IRL knows I use MSE.


In case you didn't quite understand that, MSE -


IF I WANTED THIS INFORMATION ON TWITTER, I WOULD HAVE PUT IT UP THERE MYSELF.
