Entmoot Expatriates Here (Facebook Group)

Some mooters just started the "Entmoot Expatriates" on Facebook.

If you're part of the group, chime in here.

If you're not, and are on FB, join up!

I am. It was a pleasant surprise, getting the invitation.

Why expatriates? Aren't they visiting us anymore?

Mixed bag. Some in the group still come around. I'm hoping just being part of the group may spur others to come around once more.

I think it was just an effort to re-connect a bunch of old Entmoot friends once more.

Has there actually been anyone around lately? Every time I come try to visit it's like, "2 new posts made today on the whole board, have fun!" Maybe we can all regroup on Facebook and then all come back here. (Hey, I can dream, can't I?)

Like Val said, it was worth a try to get all the oldies back together. I don't think we've had that many Mooters in one spot since the middle Teacup Thread years

EDIT: Okay, not four years. But you have to think about the future!!!!

Yeah, postage is low these days. Mind you, there's a decent number still regularly signing in, but most seem to prefer to lurk than post.

Would be fun if the FB group brought more people back here.

I must have been elsewhere on state business when this happened. Yeah. That's where I was.

Well, we did say you lot could always form a Last Alliance to wrest back control cos' we're enlightened and nice and stuff tyrants. But so far everyone seems happy under our dictatorship, so we must be doing something right!

And by everyone you mean the few tumbleweeds that still pass through every now and again.

Tumbleweeds have feelings too, I imagine.

Indeed we do. I distinctly remembering beginning a revolt. Or trying to. I broke out all the political prisoners, but everyone just went back to drinking tea.

But maybe... maybe a second try.

Now where'd I put that army of bunnies...

Also, I couldn't find the group on FB. Link please?

See if this works:

http://www.facebook.com/groups/339870356134285/

I don't know how FB groups work, and didn't know if it was by invitation only - so I sent you an email invite as well.

Link doesn't work for me so maybe it's invitation only. Might explain why I couldn't find it when searching either. But then it might just be me, I'm still trying to figure out how FB works in the first place.

Ha - pretty much. Except that now, the posting has slowed to an absolute crawl!

Are you on FB now? Would you be my friend?
