Hey guys,
I only recently discovered the HiTech - Aces High Facebook page. I don't know how long it has been up (I think a month), but make sure to support it by visiting and clicking the "like" button! Support your virtual passion! :)

The Aces High II page has 2k+ followers or whatever they're called. I'm not sure if it's official though.

I think it is, they posted news to my wall about the new updates. Of course, it could be a player doing that as well.

It is, they started it a few months ago, you can get to it from the HTC home page actually. They'll do updates, it's the same ones they do on the homepage but I'm on facebook more than the homepage so it's nice getting updates there. I think they have a twitter too, if you're into that.

I've never had any reason to join facebook and never will.

^-- What Shuffler said. Facebook is a time waster. It has led to many bad online habits and trends.
I think the SouthPark episode summed it up quite well.

Posted on an online video game forum.

I added to my Facebook page that BOTH Shuff and Krusty DON'T use Facebook. It should really bring in the "likes" now !

I found out about this game through facebook.

You all know there is a difference between an open discussion forum and the narcissistic "look at me!" nature of Facebook and Twitter, the ego stroking implied with the "All these people follow me!" mentality....
Frankly, almost all of you aren't worth reading up on. Not on a regular basis.
-

That's because it's a social network and your Anti-Social :cheers:

Yeah well at least facebook has chicks.

Not using Facebook is the new not owning a television. Only sheeple use Facebook and watch television, right?

Say's the guy with over 21 thousand posts in here in less time than I've posted less than 800. :O

Your own laziness isn't any of my business. :D Also: post count means little.

Said like someone truely devoted to facebook. Poor comparison.

Not at all. I barely use it, and I haven't posted an update there in probably a year. What I don't do is hate it for the sake of hating it, which seems to be what all the cool kids are doing these days.
The comparison is apt, and your intuition is false.
-
No... Facebook is more akin to wearing your baggy jeans down below your crack so your underwear shows.... It's more of a social statement than one of capability or ability.
That would be my analogy, if I had to make one.

So you assume the hate. That is something I never said.
You should never assume.
-
So you assume the hate. That is something I never said.
And you assumed "devotion." Look at us both, assuming.
On the bright side, I did find an article about Krusty (http://www.theonion.com/articles/area-man-constantly-mentioning-he-doesnt-own-a-tel,429/). It predates Facebook though.
-

Good point. My total lack of respect for it as an online tool does not immediately jump to "hatred" -- disdain, indifference, dislike, but no presence of hate IMO.
P.S. DMF: Did you even see the SouthPark episode I referenced? Not only was it hilarious, it's pretty on-the-money.

I feel the need to post this picture...

Wrong again. I'll repost what I said for you. "Said like someone truely devoted to facebook." I did not say you were devoted, just that your like someone who is such.

My post was not inreference to yours. I never have watched southpark.

Okay. And you're like someone who hates Facebook and very like someone who assumes I'm devoted to it. Semantics are fun!

Your position is now weak. Shall we stop here?

By all means, continue. Wait, let me add my part to this "debate:" Your position is weaker. Back to you, Shuff.
-
My post was not inreference to yours
Mine was in support of yours, not exactly response to yours :)
-
People like being a rebel. If you never used facebook, and don't see any reason to join facebook, why even join this discussion? Just so people know you don't use facebook?
It's an anti-culture, and I take part in it in that I will never own a north face jacket, I'll never wear plaid shorts, and I don't say "bro". (Greek culture on my campus).

Ahhhh :D

I did a quick search by poster (Shuffler) and keyword (Facebook) and found at least nine threads where he felt the need to do a drive-by posting dismissing the site or expressing disdain. I don't want to assume what that means, so I'll just let everybody draw their own conclusions.

...... because it is as you say a... "discussion".
No matter what you post, there are those that do not agree, somewhat agree, or completely agree. All threads on this BBS are open for discussion amongst the users as rules permit.

You should never assume.
idk Shuffler, I've seen quite a bit of random facebook jabs from you in the past year. If not "hate", then what is the appopriate adjective that is a better measurement of your negative emotions towards it?
-
Okay, as the original poster, I'd like to clarify this post!
If you are a facebook user, please support the HiTech Facebook page to promote additional awareness of our beloved game!
:airplane:

Sounds like someone's friend requests have gone unanswered.

I searched for "Shuffler Headhunter" (I assume that's his real name) but I came up empty handed. :(
-
Well if shuffler is not a old man then he is some hipster. The worst kind of sheeple. The sheeple who don't know they are sheeple and talk down to the other sheeple. They do this as they drink their starbucks and listen to their ipods.
-
Wow, this post is looking more like Facebook or Twitter with every post! Lets keep this going! :bhead
BTW Levi, Loved that article. :aok
I wonder if I quit playing AH and just posted here all the time would everyone still think I was still paying 14.95 a month? :noid

Honestly, this is only true if haing access to java-based apps/games online hasn't been available to a user before. Most of us who have had access to that stuff for 10+ years before the rise of FB haven't developed any bad habits we didn't already have or weren't aware of. Most of us know that you don't get distracted and play on your work computer, or at least don't play when you're trying or have to do something else on the computer, lol. Also facinating to me, with the rise of facebook/twitter users coincides a rise in adult self-diagnosed ADD disorders in the nation. Internet noobs. :D

Facebook is for girls. Why would anyone put personal information about themself on the internet? And personally, I don't need to know what you did today, or any other day for that matter. I don't need to see your vacation pictures and I certainly don't need to chat with you about a whole lot of nothing. What a waste of time!

What you described about Facebook is the female aspect of it. For me, it is a networking tool, and a way to keep in contact with relatives and friends. It can also be used to click the "like" button on the HiTech Creations page. Then all my aviation buddies will be like, "hmm? What is that?" *click* "Hmmm, interesting." *click* "Wow! What fun! And realistic too!" *Click* More $$$ for our game. More funding = more features from a primitive perspective.

I actually use FB for a side job I do. I'm a staff writer for the Lingerie Football League and use FB to get interviews out of the players. With teams all over the country (and now Canada), FB is better for what I do that regular email is, because it allow me to scout a player before I approach her for an interview. For one thing, it helps me get some background on who might make a good story, and who is actually literate enough to string proper sentences together!
And to keep this on topic, I just added an LFL gunsite to the AH page. :)

And we don't need your opinion yet here it is. Are you forced to use FB against your will or something?

I use email and phone calls for the same thing. Maybe even a visit or two.

I do as well and still FB in between.

You look a lot like someone who suggests that people who use FB are unwilling or incapable of doing those things too. Which, of course, would be a very silly thing to imply.

Why would anyone think more ways to communicate with friends is bad? However just like anything else, some people go overboard. There are idiots who make it there goal to collect as many friends as possible. Then there are others who only friend people they actually know. So all you people running your pie holes about what Facebook is used for without trying it..... shaddapp.

Telephones and email? :O
*Old man voice*
Back when I was a younger lad, if I wanted to talk to someone, it was in town at the ol' farmer's market, the barber shop, or the saloon! Sometimes the occasional letter by Pony express. All these hipsters were starting to use telegraphs, Telegraphs! **Slaps knee in laughter, then almost coughs up a lung** I almost fall out of my rockin' chair thinkin about the uselessness of sending information in that way. All those youngsters with their telegraphs ruinin this country I tell ya. If you want to talk to someone, it should be in person, the trip by horseback is a measure of your commitment my old papa used to say. Email and phone? That's straight out of a science fiction novel! **Decrepit cough**

We get it shuff... you don't like facebook. However, posting ignorance is in no way going to sway responsible users to not use it. So balls in your court continue your ignorance if you want. :aok

My wife will post something about our kids on Facebook (like a couple of photos from an air show we went to last weekend) for her family to enjoy. It beats e-mailing all of them about it, or calling them all to let them know we went to an air show, or dropping in on her sister in Maine or her other sister in Indiana to tell them about the air show. Sometimes a couple of photos and a quick comment are all that loved ones need to connect and feel like they're in the loop about what's going on with our family. It's insane to think that every little event deserves a phone call, but it's perfectly reasonable, IMO, to put that stuff out there for family to enjoy at their own leisure.
It's really as simple as that, despite the over-the-top stuff that folks try to interject in here. Facebook operates within a greater social context, not outside it.

lol when you fail to have any ability to discuss and fail to name calling, I think you just tagged yourself.
If your in love with facebook to that point fine. I do not care for it. Does not make one better than another. But you do stand out as the type I see flaunting facebook the most and the reason I see so little use in it. All can't be that bad but it is what I see most.
I'll pass on posting anymore so no other facebook type gets their panties in a not. :rofl

Name calling... I said you are ignorant of Facebooks use... or do you use it? If we were discussing the use of P-38s in game you wouldn't be ignorant... see the use there shuff?

Pfffft, you cheap skate! Fly the Sister in from Indy, then after that, both of you fly up with your family to Maine...... :headscratch: Wait. Have the the sister in Maine ride the train down to Indy, then on to your home....... :headscratch: Wait. I got it!
I got it! Post "said pictures" on your Wall on FB and the "logistical nightmare" is solved! Damn it, you already did that.

No no no, the obvious thing to do is the print the pictures out for everyone who wants to see them, then mail each a set and ask them to mail back their pictures!
