Yeah, I know it would be ridiculously difficult to implement, but what are the chances? Prolly be a lot easier to just get 24 hour mod coverage (not that that is some easy thing, I realize!) for a facebook account for Dakka, but hey; it'll only take asecond to shoot this down and then I will know! lol

OK, how about a stickied thread someplace of people and their FB identities? They wouldnt necc. have to use their "real" ID, but if everyone posted in a thread that their Dakka screen name was now on FB, we could hop on and mooch off their chat. Still links them to dakka.

For instance, say my name is Joe Smith. I get onto the Dakka-Facebook thread stickied at the top of the Whatever forum. I drop a line that grizgrin is now on FB. People can make FB pages for their own Dakka idnetities, and come friend me. We end up with a chat network. What do you think? Since it is a voluntary network of Dakkaites but everyone is friending eachother at their own discretion, there really is no need for 24/7 moderation; inded there would be no real way to moderate it at all.

see the other thread about this. legoburner easily explains, and the chances of such a page are nil. and anyway, i hate facebook. if you wanna quit, you can, but they keep your information on their servers forever. And anyway, what's the point? Remember, we have the OT Forum to talk about stuff we love, and stuff we love to hate. for me, there isn't any benefit at all to anyone, and i'm sure no mods on dakka related sites will be a definite no no from yakface, due to the safety of the younger users. Peace .
