Was going to sign up for this but since it only allows sign up through facebook or twitter I won't be. My facebook is for keeping in touch with close friends and family not for companies to use to target advertising.

That's the spirit Bardon. You should come around to my place. We'll get someone to ring us up every 10 minutes with a score update and we'll yell amusing comments down the phone line.

Young people today don't know how to have fun.

You can download the app which stop twitter following the sites you use or you can just open up another FB account

I just registered a new twitter account, which won't be used for anything other than this... too easy.

Twitter will now hound you to your death. They won't give up until they monetise you.

I've got to be honest, I'm taking all this rather hard. I'm really happy living without a mobile phone or tv or facebook or tumblr or lolcats or whatever, but I do like to banter about the game. You know, I was there, online, when Moses came in his own mouth. I don't expect everyone to change their lives to suit me, but I'm feeling very left out. :(

Sadly, I was also there, golden moment.

Cover-it really fucked a good thing being bought out and inserting ads every where (among other things), it has effected us greatly from podcast live recording to game time banter.

That will definitely keep the Facebook corporatization gremlins away. :rolleyes:

In years to come, pun fully intended, we will remember when Moses jizzed in his mouth on CiL. I admit, I miss the live wanging, with the random polls and random, short-lived trolls.

I was expecting (1) a live call service from PlayUp (2) more from KB (Kurtley Beale). I guess he was relaxing.

Can't we just have a ChatBox or something? Keep it in house?

If they made PlayUp look just like twitter you wouldn't be able to stop KB (Kurtley Beale) and other Aus players posting on it.

PU - what a joke! - where has the alleged $50m of investment in it gone? Agree with Scarfie. GAGR could do it better.

We have a Shoutbox that no one uses. and it has no phone access.

I used the shoutbox for the first time last weekend. I knew it existed but it was only when someone posted in the game thread that I knew ppl actually used it during games.

This week was the first time on PlayUp and it was good to see so many familiar posters on there and some good banter. Will give it more time as I'm sure it will improve.

But was also disappointed about no live call and lack of input from KB (Kurtley Beale) apart from his comment at the start.
