No Facebook Page?

[Archem]

Oh, nobody loves old-school Charas.

[A Forgotten Legend]

Well it's there, even if it's not that well maintained.

Huh.  Just found the Charas-project group and joined it. =P

[lilsniffs3]

Joined it under my account with a fake name. You'll know when you see it.

Why would you even have a Facebook account with a fake name

Why would you even have a Facebook account with a fake name

Because using your real name is just asking for the online predators to find you.

[Felix-0]

My FB first name is Felix. Although that's not my real name. It's what everyone calls me by. I'm more used to hearing Felix than my real name.

Facebook won't let me change my name anymore. Damn nazis -_-

Parents are a tad overprotective.

And my Italian teacher told me I should make my Facebook/Email/whatever Signor Lastname. Sniffles is just whatever because my last name is ridiculous.

Facebook is run by evil corporation man who was played by the guy who could easily be swapped with Michael Cera. They don't allow a username. It's first name and last name.

Basically, Ian_Lastname wouldn't work. As a first name, it also doesn't work.

Speaking of Facebook, Twitter all the way.

[drenrin2120]

I got myself a twitter. I haven't logged since the day I got it. I think my screen name was Deplorable_Puss, or something like that.

They don't allow a username.

Well... they kinda do.  You're allowed to do the Nickname thing, as well as make it so your profile has a name.  Like mine is oboe.joe or something like that.

Well... they kinda do.  You're allowed to do the Nickname thing, as well as make it so your profile has a name.  Like mine is oboe.joe or something like that.

I'd like to know how to do that.  But then again, I'm not about to hook up my online ident (Kilyle, which I use for everything) with my real name.  As someone else said, there's plenty of reasons you might want to keep them separate.  I'm nervous enough about having my friends and my pastor on the same list (not that I post anything I wouldn't want my pastor to read, but my friends use some of the worst language I've ever heard in my life).

But anyway.  I'm not too familiar with Facebook groups, but I wasn't really thinking along the lines of "group".  Just "page" that I can Like.  I mean, I can... and am about to, after I finish this message... simply post a link to Charas, but that disappears after a couple days, which reduces its usefulness as both advertising and reminder.

But who knows how many of my friends on Facebook might be interested in joining Charas, or making use of the graphics here, or getting involved in making hobby games for themselves?  (Knowing my circle of friends and how I've discussed hobby game crafting before, I'm gonna say "practically none" but you never know....)  A link (that stuck around) would let people browse their way over here, just like my links to Alice Cooper, Teräsbetoni, Sabaton... Minecraft, Emily Rodda, etc.  Passive word-of-mouth advertising that doesn't require my active participation at the same time as my friend's interest.

P.S. My signature?  I think I was pretty peeved about a news story back when I wrote that.  I don't mess with my sig very often.  And yeah, the respect list was "Hey, everyone else seems to be doing it..." (which isn't my motivation for very many things in my life, so cherish it).

ETA: Post Count 108.  Boo-yah.

Since '04? You're a real heavy hitter, aren't ya?

I'm poking fun, in case it's not apparent. Given that you're not a common forumite, I feel that it's worth putting a disclaimer in, just in case.

[Valiere]

I don't want hot babes knowing I make RPGs in my spare time!

There's nothing unattractive about creativity. 

[Archem]

There's plenty unattractive about being an RPG dork. For example, you're pretty damn ugly, but if you never touched this site, you'd be quite hot.

I don't think this is working out like I envisioned...
