[QUOTE="Super Kami Guru, post: 1448, member: 22"] Yeah, I'm not sure when I signed up for a Twitter account, just that I have one. I don't use it, except to browse breaking news every now and then. Same with Facebook, I basically only use it when everyone remembers I exist on it once a year for my bday and I feel obligated to respond to them. I've never really "gotten" the social media thing, at least the social media that people have today. I consider forums and email to be the original forms of social media, and I much prefer them to a tweet or a facebook post. I will say again that I genuinely believe that the social media sites (and even the streaming sites like Twitch) should have hours of operation, or a tracker on each account that automatically blocks them for a 48 hour period after viewing so much in a specified amount of time. It's ludicrous that people spend as much time as they do on social media and it's no surprise at all that this is why people end up with the warped views that how you act and interact online is how you should act and interact in reality. It's something that needs to be cracked down on. I hate that the massive conglomerated sites exist in the first place, but since they're not going away anytime soon, at least regulate them more appropriately. [/QUOTE]
