@ashy like i really hope it's just sorta a "you're a good community here's a li'l goof for ya while we work on the site" deal and not a "we're using this word in interviews" deal

@gidgetnomates i mean we're still in goofing around with the dev stage of this thing so y'know

@ashy stuff like this just has a tendency to stick

@gidgetnomates @ashy Sticky toots are the best toots.

@Chaz @ashy i mean tbh this is exactly why it's a bad idea of a word for a fledgling social media platform
Show threadChazNov 23, 2016
@gidgetnomates @ashy Surely it's the opposite. Early identity and branding and all that.

@Chaz @ashy it's really bad identity and branding that only serves the handful of people who signed up early it a long term project

@gidgetnomates @ashy You could've said the same of the Wii, but the penis jokes were done with pretty quickly.

@ashy like we're goofing but it's getting new members already and had at least one article written about it how long before a big site says "AS ONE USER TOOTED,"

@gidgetnomates yea im totally with you its fun now but i think as a long term thing it sort of also invites a constant link to "tweet"
Show threadrural goblinNov 23, 2016
@ashy that too, it just screams bootleg twitter not brand new service. NO THIS ISNT A NINTENDO ITS A NONTANDO
Show threadOchanNov 23, 2016
@gidgetnomates @ashy Totally agree on you there. But so far it is just bootleg minitwitter. Worry about this stuff when it gets legs of it's own.

@Ochan @ashy i'd rather worry about it now before this word enters anyone's actual vocabulary and we get articles going Y'ALL SEEN THIS NEW SITE AND ITS TOOTS words can stick fast the prevalence of people using it already (joke or otherwise) proves that much

@Ochan @ashy i'm not saying STOP SAYING IT i'm just saying "let's leave the button saying Toot for maybe a day then change it back"
Show threadrural goblinNov 23, 2016
@ashy i guess all i'm saying is let's goof around a day or two but let's not let this become The Real Deal bc it's a terrible idea long term
