There is a reason that people sign up for a Facebook account, and a Twitter account, and an Instagram account,
Yes, peer pressure. One of your friends or family member says "look at how many twitter followers I have... OR Hey! You should friend me on facebook"...
re @pfunk helping you brainstorm. Was that in discord or chat? (Curious)
...that is why most people join. Peer Pressure. :)
I do like the discussion tag. That is very useful, and shows you posts that want user action. Will be interesting to see how it will play out.
Hehe, well maybe those weren't the best examples. I have Facebook because it helps me keep in contact with friends and family.
The discussion was in a private channel.
I do think that #discussion has a lot of potential. The back and forth conversations can be a lot more interesting for users to participate in.
Yes, that is the #1 purpose for Facebook, always ways, always will. :)
However a lot of people have grown tired of it, and when someone asks me "hey! Send me a friend request on Facebook", I just reply, I don't do facebook anymore (and I don't). :)
