Maybe I'm too old, but I'm not getting the point of tweeting when there's a message board and a chat channel. Is that where I'm supposed to go to tell people that I'm afk and tweeting from my phone while I pee?

Yeah I don't get Tweeting either. And after having to work with their very lame api to integrate Tweeter into an IPhone app I worked on, I really hate them. But hey I followed anyway. Maybe I will log into Tweeter now more than once every 6 months.

I'm possibly half your age and I don't get it either. So It definitely doesn't have to do anything with age.

Have fun with it thought Svper!

[Svpernova09]

It's certainly not for everyone.

If we had more social events as a community, it would probably be a lot more useful. ;)

Not a user but trying to grasp the idea:

- you update (manually?) on your twitter page when there is a new article/front page news
- then you click the link on the twitter page and you are send to the respective news article

that's correct?

[Oatboat]

its an easy way to update multiple sights.

I tweet what i'm doing. It updates my Facebook, yahoo and various accounts aswell as sharing photos and locations

You can also follow some of your favorite people or shows/sites.

This will keep you in the loop of whats going on.

Yes. It sounds funny, but let me put it into some context:

My personal twitter account follows quite a few various other accounts. Such as Adam from Mythbusters, The Penny Arcade guys, the PvPOnline guys, and many writers. Look at my twitter "feed" I can see what all they're all sharing in 1 quick location. Think of it as multiplayer RSS. I even use a client on my phone to control 3 twitter accounts. I multibox twitter LIKE A BOSS.

All right I guess that makes sense. Maybe not so much for multiboxers, but probably more for other gamers / wow players who have a 'summary'. Or for a boxer who is retired and can have a quick scan what's going on.

On a sidenote - and not willing to derail the thread which I'm most likely doing - I find myself almost reading more about the game than I actually play it, just due to the share volume of sites/blogs to keep track off. Just did some quick math and I was quite surprised:
3 blogs, db forum, our guild forum, realm forum, ptr forum, joystick, mmo, eu shaman forum, skill-capped forum, EJ & totemspot. That is quite a bunch of stuff to keep track off when I list it all together. I can see the advantage of twitter if it would summarize stuff for me.

I tweet'd that I was taking the biggest shit of my life atm....instantly gained 3 followers. I lost all faith in humanity and have since closed my twitter account. To this day my mom gives me a weird look when I see her, but she says she is too old for twitter.

That instantly reminded me about this:

Yes, it's worth the read. Short quote so you get the idea:
"I had been downloading music yesterday evening. Led Zeppelin, REO Speedwagon, Flock of Seagulls, things like that. Then I realized that it'd be a funny joke to play on people if I were to change "Keep on Rolling" to "Hot Lesbian Sex". I watched as within minutes this file got 50 downloads. I was astounded.
Then the Tom got an idea.
An awful idea.
The Tom got a wonderful awful idea."

I totally agree which is why I have Svper just carry me through it all.

How exactly is asking that someone explain the point of twitter for an already "as live as you want to be" community "hating"? Now, if I said twitter is for attention-starved morons with no self-esteem who can't put together a coherent thought, that would be hating. :p
