Twitter Is the King! It’s Good to Be the King!

I love Twitter, it is the cleanest form of concise expression. They don’t steal from Facebook or Google Plus, it’s the other way around. One can say “Don’t tweet and drive!” because it’s addictive, like Pinterest. I have met the best new friends on Twitter, even if I grew a stronger base on Google Plus and I didn’t want to use Facebook for any reason. Maybe it is not good politics, but I had something personal against “the Monster” at the time. I know it’s only business, but I considered it bad business. Too many mingling scripts, only the same is the case on Google Plus. At least, Google Plus doesn’t annoy you with stupid paid ads. One has Facebook for that. I can accept a not so lame ad, but I’m already bored of what my adsense squares displays, I don’t need them on G+.

As for Twitter, have a look at the picture below:

You see? It is a crop made on the app’s page. I take no BS from TweetAdder users. I check them (more or less manually) but almost individually before any action, and I consider them my friends, not just “meanings to an end”. I know that there are people claiming that they don’t need more friends, but I know also a lot of others in great need of such friends and followers, they have to sell their crap somewhere, “specialists” in Social Media who don’t know the difference between dumb and dumber, between a bot and a person and follow two thousand people in their first two days on, waiting to be followed back the same evening, because they are “Social Media managers, experts and gurus”. When I contacted once such a freak with a following 2,000 – 186 followers imbalance, claiming his expertise, I told him to unfollow the bots in the 2,000 bunch. And he arrogantly answered me that he has his own methods.

The crop above is of my other Twitter account, one that I wanted a lot more specialized, but I found it unavoidable to not let some junk just because the niche is too narrow and they don’t know Twitter at all. It is right that there is a condition to feel good on Twitter. You get it or not. If you get it, you feel fine, you enjoy. It’s not a chant in the dessert. Otherwise it’s like this: You are a man or a woman, doesn’t matter. You have a boat and you’re proud, very proud. You make a Twitter account, you put your boat’s picture as avatar, and start following Rihanna, Obama and all the bunch on SUL, because you don’t know that it is not compulsory, and who knows, you, who don’t know nothing, maybe you’ll find Brittney Spears’ tweets interesting, or Tom Cruise will follow you some day. So you start following two-three hundred managed accounts (all of them sometimes twit personally, but that’s rare) and of course, you have no followers except for two or three bots (I never know how they find who they find). You don’t know how to compose a twit, you don’t really know how to read or to send a DM. Because of those, nobody follows you, except for another one ore two bots selling crap. Seeing all this and not knowing that bots don’t communicate, you try to be “intelligent” and “original”, and become upset they don’t gain more followers for your beautiful avatar (a boat pic taken with your 2000 model mobile phone). After awhile, you cease to log in or just forget the password, which is more credible. In a few more months you’ll forget you have ever had an account, because you discovered Facebook, which even if it is complicated, you don’t have to figure it out, they’ll figure you out. Beside, you found a few friends you haven’t seen in years, among them your neighbor and your grocer. Now you are really happy ‘cos you have friends…

When I started to follow such accounts, I used to have a lot of compassion. I remember my first six erratic months on Twitter with @RodolfoGrimaldi . @TheYachtOwner already had some “experience” since it was created some months later, almost an year, if I remember well. That was an explanation why @TheYachtOwner has some inactive followship or even suspicious. I considered sometimes they are cruising and don’t have internet, so a less than often tweet from time to time might show exactly that. Anyway, the junk quantity is considerable less significant than the one offered by an adding followers machine.

And now a little laugh, to explain the article’s title:

In the end, I want to thank the most famous Romanian blogger for the Fake Followers screenshot crop idea 🙂
