Melbourne Board Joins The Twitterverse

[Crimson Azure]

That's right, we have climbed out of the darkness into the light & are now on twitter (http://twitter.com/).

I for one am ignorant to all things twitter (I know how to search & follow) & need your help to guide us through the twitterverse.

Got to twitter & search for:

@BigFootyDemons

Get on there & follow us.

Please also post here when you start to follow our board & lets watch it grow.

Currently 18 followers.

Not my idea, this is a big footy initiation.

I will help with the management of it along with all the MFC board mods & admin if/as required.

Thanks for the support though. :thumbsu:

[Crimson Azure]

For a twitter twit I can say at least we are up to 30 followers now.
Can I ask what you think of the back ground?

I tried.

[Carusiii]

[melbournemartin]

Just quietly, I reckon Crimson Azure has a bit of swagger about himself since he became a mod. It's a little Luke Darcy like, albeit without the pompousness.

Even a little bit of Andy Maher when he joined Before the Game, straight in as the host.

[demons64]

If thats the case I would like to formerly advise everyone of my retirement as a mod... :o

I refuse to inflict another one on humanity.

Following

[d33my]

following, i'm @d33my (duh)

I like the background CA, but to me the profile pic appears to be a broken link? Might be showing for others...

also nice to see DemonsHQ following, wonder how often they visit the board?

[Crimson Azure]

If someone wants to put together a profile pic that incorperates both the Dees & BigFooty, we will use it as the profile pic if its good.

Go.

36 followers now.

[Wise Guy Sam]

I'll follow. Although I'm slightly disappointed it's not the executive of the club...


Oh Higgs, how I enjoy all of your posts.

I'm following MFCBF with my awesome twitter account that i use to basicly try and strike up friendship with Fev and Supermarcado. My current social circles need some variety.

Neither seem keen.

:(

In was between Fishbut33 and Wise Guy Sam.

[Ando727]

Proudly avoiding Twitter for as long as I can! If it works for you guys though - good luck to you.

Moving on, we have changed the background as it looked a little busy in white.

I think it makes the posts stand out a lot better. If you can do better then post it here & you'll have the official BFDemons twitter background as yours.

Thoughts?

[Crimson Azure]

If you are on twitter & follow Yze check out some of his recent tweets.

Him & one bloke are getting right into it.
