A little self-help idea I've been tossing round of late.
Rather than just moping about how the board is a shadow of its former self how about something a bit more positive.
Reach out and tap up any former b3tans that you may still be in contact with either through other social media or *gasp* actual human contact and try and persuade them to come out of the wilderness for a short while one day only a week on Wednesday. Post an image hang around for a bit chat nonsense that sort of thing.
If they then want to slope off back to wherever then hunky dory. If it encourages a few people back into a bit more activity then even better!
I've picked a Wednesday as it's the day when everyone is generally getting a bit tired of the last image compo and things are at a fairly low ebb hummus-wise.
I've no idea if the Pac-Man ghost has already been done as an icon but I needed something to include as an image :o)

If they have left here for Facebook, then good fucking riddance.
Lure them back for a day, then we should steal their sweets and dinner money and throw their homework in the toilet.

Actually it's a good idea.
There are several high profile former b3tans on Tw*tter. Sure I've seen Zak McFlimby on there and Bovine is definitely there too.

Amazingly it is working.
A couple of ex-b3tans have replied, though one is probably not coming. Thanks for the re-tw**ts those of you that have done so.

Nice one. I've asked Rob to mention it in a newsletter, and stick it on his **itter.

I went on my Facebook account today for the first time in weeks, purely to check everything was still set to private. Apparently Facebook is now automatically creating 'couple' pages for anyone in a relationship. *bokes*

No need for that as
it's doing it automatically. Facebook doing something without asking, surprise, surprise.

Am I to assume that Pac Man ghost is the GC of the icon world?

I must admit to being surprised that Pacman/Ghost icons don't already exist.

Pretty sure pac-man is there
Would be v surprised if the ghost wasn't.
Basically though I just needed to knock something up as an image so I didn't get snapped at, and it seemed the path of least resistance.

If they do exist, no-one on b3ta has ever used them since I've been here.

The Pacman ghost's not one of the 53 I have a choice from....
...so I doubt it's ever been available, although I don't have a pacman either...

Do a tw**t and we can retw**t it.
That way any miscreants on the periphery will spot it.

My **itter is quite full of w*rk people! Including my boss. Not sure if I want to announce quite as publicly that I'll be spending the better part of that day playing on b3ta!
Feel free to t**et the link to this thread though :o)
