Yeah I figured but I stand by my post and of course you're welcome to ask for options.
It's still just twitter though and I'm trying to point out that it's not facebook, or anything of the sort. It's so harmless as it relates to we as mere mortals that I don't understand the seeming apprehension with it.
Also, I'm fairly active in social sphere so I'm quite familiar with it and again, I have my settings parameters set so that it's non invasive for me and it's used as a tool for me or my clients, that's it and that's that so far as I'm concerned.
We'll just have to agree to disagree I guess

I know facebook and twitter aren't the same. You're fairly active so that's why the twitter change isn't that big a deal to you. It really isn't that big a deal to me either, I just wont use the shout box anymore. You aren't taking into consideration the people who aren't on twitter. I'm active on facebook a few times a day and, very rarely, instagram, but I'm not on every thing and really don't care to sign up for something just to post a message or 2. Like hojer said, twitter is good for news but really what's the major benefit for it being here in the shout box? Either way, it is what it is and I'll roll with whatever.

I have had a Twitter account for a long time and am very familiar with it. I only really use it to keep up with the up to the minute news about the Niners,that is usually posted on Twitter before it is even on the beat writers blogs.
To me,the Twitter "shout box" is not something I want to use and would much rather have the old shout box back to only post things to the Paradise members and not to the World on my Twitter page.
I guess keeping it like it is at this time is one good way to stop me from using the shout box too much,lol. Smart Move PAPA and Bry ;)
twinspapa:
Yeah we're always scheming of ways to keep you at bay Tim LOL!!
TIM:
So,can we get the old shout box back and still keep the new twitter thing? Or is it one or the other ? And if it is one or the other should we have a vote ?
