    Haha. Facebook. I'm sorry. And this isn't directed at you, Sylux. But really?

    You don't find dimension and existence cowering in large groups of equally frightful peers. If you want a personal connection and can't do it in real life, you can use the phone. Facebook is where people insecure of their social status seek reassurance, being drawn in a place where insecurity of social status is a support group.

    If there were a serious "QuakeOne" Facebook page, it would just have unmeaningful "Likes" that signify nothing --- no Facebook isn't a place of action, it is a place of feelings and whatever the opposite of substance is -- bottom line it doesn't really mean anything. It might have once upon a time when there were requirements to membership (like had to be a college student, but then again to monetize Facebook that had to go),

    /I didn't want to trash that other thread.

    I have a ton of respect for Zuckerberg. And explaining why would be a mini-book of 75 things "he gets", "he understands" that corporate drones will never understand nor duplicate, but Facebook exploits social status insecurities --- and Zuckerberg managed to exploit this in spades (hats off). Plus, I have a strong bias towards winners --- not douches people in popular culture anoint as winners, but the ones in a crowded field (remember Myspace) that emerge carrying banner with several heads on a stick.

    Quakeone.com - Being exactly one-half good and one-half evil has advantages. When a portal opens to the antimatter universe, my opposite is just me with a goatee.

    So while you guys all have to fight your anti-matter counterparts, me and my evil twin will be drinking a beer laughing at you guys ...

      I personally use facebook for friends/family, I personally dont care who invades my privacy. If you walk into my home then it's game on > glock .40 or glock .17 which ever i can grab the fastest. (Oh, Mr. Officer, this person tried to rape my wife > had to > put out of misery because he refused to stop.) Privacy has been invaded in a physical force.
      I don't hide much for sure, But there are something's i will protect obviously. The bottom line of is if i want you to know i will tell you or tell the world, if i don't it will never be mentioned.

            it was just a suggestion. i do agree with what you say regarding its all feeling related stuff. i just figured it would be another form of communication between players. btw you sound like you hate facebook with a passion. bad experience? hehe.

              BTW I started the Facebook page with the sole intention of securing facebook.com/quakeone in case we ever decide to use it... and prevent someone else from getting /quakeone

                        My wife and I have a facebook. I don't use it to often. But my wife does. I use it to keep in touch with some of my old gaming buddies. I think I had Bay on there at one point. I have badaim also. But I never really talked to them much on it. When I was playing I'd get a message sometimes from Bay or Badaim to come play quake. That's about it for it though.
