Members DRW50 Posted February 21, 2013 Members Share Posted February 21, 2013 That's where I am too - I can't read most of the tweets, but that's just because I struggle to understand Twitter (and I generally see it as a toxic waste dump). I hope you will continue them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted February 21, 2013 Members Share Posted February 21, 2013 twitter is hard to read for people not on twitter cu you have to read it from the bottom up, and when c/p it adds in the user name, their display name, the time, etc and makes it look whack. I love twitter though. I just read a great article on how it has basically saved Scandal and kept shows like Pretty little Liars going. Whenever I have an issue with a prodcut or company and bitch on twitter they get right back to me. Twitter is great, but people do show their asses on it but I enjoy that too.

Members EricMontreal22 Posted February 21, 2013 Members Share Posted February 21, 2013 Amen. It makes zero sense to me, to do otherwise. No offence meant to anyone (isn't it great how people say no offence when they know offence prob will be taken?), but I really don't get the complaints that a fan of one show has to trudge through this thread to only find out info about AMC, for example. Right now, the info that's going around, more often than not, is related to BOTH shows. If and when we start getting specific info about the filming, etc, of either show (I guess, if things are to be trusted, AMC will be first), then I think a case can be made for seperating the thread. Otherwise, it's gonna be a lot of info posted on both--and, I suspect (this may be arrogant of me) that more people than not will be checking both threads, rather than the people who would only wanna check one...

Members DRW50 Posted February 21, 2013 Members Share Posted February 21, 2013 It's more the constant bile that is sent to a lot of people which bothers me. I guess at least those people have to show their asses, instead of sending private hate, but sometimes this turns my stomach. That and the desperate attention whoring.

Members EricMontreal22 Posted February 21, 2013 Members Share Posted February 21, 2013 OK I have no idea what this means. First I was stumped yesterday with the GH character that John likes to save apparently called "Samsel" and now this. I hate net slang... (It took me at least 6 months to realize what people on here meant by SMH) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted February 21, 2013 Members Share Posted February 21, 2013 OK, then snap out of your own drama Your links and tweets (why do I always want to write twits) are much more appreciated than not. It's up to you, of course, but I'd find this thread a much rougher going without them, and I think a lot of others on here appreciate them.

Members EricMontreal22 Posted February 21, 2013 Members Share Posted February 21, 2013 I am erasing your spoiler tags in my quote--it's ridiculous to do that in this thread, Brett, even if I appreciate your intentions Oh boo. But the word (from who?) was that he was coming back recurring.... I wonder if she's in direct contact with him? At least she didn't say Barr wasn't coming back...

Members Chris B Posted February 21, 2013 Members Share Posted February 21, 2013 Maybe he still is recurring, but won't be appearing on the show anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted February 21, 2013 Members Share Posted February 21, 2013 See, I just dont see that. I am careful about who I follow and interact with and once I see hate and attention whoring, i usually unfollow unless its funny, lol. I dont mind actors snapping back at people. honestly its usually well deserved. I dont hold them to much a higher standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted February 21, 2013 Members Share Posted February 21, 2013 I think it's a mixed bag. I don't like when public figures get defensive (not that he's a public figure, but RonC is a good example of this--I think he would be better served by the good old bad old days when he might get hate mail and just ignore it). I do think for celebs it makes sense to have a private and a public account--I don't know if we gain much from feeling like we have a semi visceral connection to someone we only know from tv, or movies, or music or whatever, Do Gaga's Little Monsters gain anything by reading her tweets every thirty minutes that they wouldn't from a fan letter every month back in the 80s? (and yes, I know she doesn't write her own tweets...) I'm a hypocrit--I have a few people on my twitter, who tweet about once every month (I'm sure some on here can guess which four people I have) and one tweeted me back, and I was really excited. So I do kinda get it, but.... I hope so--and I think that could still be true. As much as I love Bassey, if they weren't using Stewart right away, she probably wouldn't know--and it would make more sense to have Adam and Brooke be there near the start than Stewart and Marian.

Members JackPeyton Posted February 21, 2013 Members Share Posted February 21, 2013 Why do a fan letter every month instead of a tweet? Twitter is vilified as some horrendous thing by people who are not on it and dont get it, and i dont get that. peopl like Ron C snapping at every little thing is annoying, but I dont mind it when people sit there all day and harass him and he snaps at them. Theres a different between those two thing, i think. tweeting for a public figure is great because it establishes a false connection, more often than not, that helps them maintain a fanbase and gather support when needed. Seriously, Twitter is basically the reason Scandal is still on the air because the cast utilized it.
