TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

I'll do it, if you don't mind that most of what I write isn't overtly Discordian in any way.

Sometimes it's fucked up and disturbing, though.

I commend you on your efforts to bring a better Discordia to facebook

I think facebook groups are kind of a coffin though.... I'm a member of like 30 groups, and only one of them has any posts in the last two months. People join them and then forget about them, unless you have something cool going which will draw people back.

I would help you out, but if I sign onto facebook at work, other coworkers on facebook start messaging me. And I avoid communicating with them at all costs.

I've started 2 separate groups on Facebook and promptly forgot about both of them.  Although, it is fitting for the group I started around The Year of Nothing.  It is really living up to its name.   :lol:

ive kinda noticed that about the groups on there. ive only been on it for about 2 months and ive already deleted my personal account. i had friends that join like 3 groups a day.... theres no way they can possibly care enough to keep current with that many. maybe i should look into getting a blog or something. myspace SUCKS so thats not an option. i really just kinda wanted a forum that i could call my own with a few other regular contributers and a gang of subscriber/member types. i guess a blog would be better? i dont know...

I think the best method is to

a) host your forum, blog, network, community, whatever somewhere away from facebook
b) use facebook to recruit people for that community


if the average user spends 10 minutes a day using facebook (that number is totally made-up btw), they're only going to spend a minute or two at most checking up on your group

but if you get them to hit up your site when they're done using facebook, you'll have a lot more of their attention.
