Listorious Interview

How long can you go without a tweet?

As a team we sometimes travel to super busy events that leave us utterly exhausted & Tweeted-out. We might take a couple days to recover.

FragDolls in response to Listorious

Ever get called out for tweeting too much?

Sometimes, especially since we have a whole team supplying tweets sometimes. We try to limit ourselves to no more than 1 tweet per hour.

FragDolls in response to Listorious

Have you ever unfollowed someone? Who and why?

We've unfollowed people for tweeting about hate and intolerance. Life is too short to let that kind of negative energy in.

140 characters of advice for a new user?

1) find new people to follow by looking at the @ replies of those you respect; 2) remember that tweets are public! Twitter isn't for secrets

FragDolls in response to Listorious

What inspires you to tweet?

We're inspired to tweet when we see things that we want other people to know about, such as funny links, contests, gaming tips, etc.

What do you wish people would do more of on Twitter?

Twitter is a fantastic way to show your support, and @s are a particularly great way to tell someone you love them. Do more!

What was the funniest trend you've seen?

The whole #pantsontheground trend was pretty hilarious. At first, some of us didn't know what it was from so we were scratching our heads.

Who do you wish had a Twitter feed but doesn't?

There are some people we really wish could tweet from beyond the grave: Mother Teresa, Ghandi, Michael Jackson...

How do you use Twitter in your professional life?

Our Twitter is all about our lives as professional gamers and as women working in the male-dominated video game industry.

FragDolls in response to Listorious

Is there someone you want to follow you who doesn't already? If so, who?

Some great twitterers we adore but who probably don't follow us: @wilw, @feliciaday, @nathanfillion, @neilhimself, @amandapalmer

FragDolls in response to Listorious

How do you make your tweets unique?

The fact that there are 7 of us all potentially tweeting from one account makes for an interesting multiple personality tweet flow.

FragDolls in response to Listorious

What are six things you could never do without?

1) game consoles w/ controllers (esp. our Xbox 360s); 2)games; 3)laptop; 4)internet connection; 5)plasma/lcd; 6)coffee and/or energy drinks

FragDolls in response to Listorious

Why'd you start tweeting?

Twitter was the easiest and fastest way to update people on fun happenings and news from game industry events and conventions.

FragDolls in response to Listorious

What are some words or phrases you refuse to shorten for brevity?

We generally refuse to shorten important but already-short words, like "for" into 4, "are" into "R", or "your/you're" into "ur".

FragDolls in response to Listorious

Hashtag you created that you wish everyone used?

We haven't created many hashtags, but it'd be cool to see some gamer comments used as hashtags, such as #gg for good game used sarcastically

FragDolls in response to Listorious

Who do you admire most for his or her use of Twitter?

Lately, @Alyssa_Milano has been fantastic about using her Twitter account to rally support for relief efforts in Haiti.

FragDolls in response to Listorious

What are some big Twitter faux pas?

Spamming one's followers every 5 minutes isn't cool. No one has entertaining or enlightening things to say every 5 minutes.

FragDolls in response to Listorious

What's your favorite Twitter app?

Many of us use Tweetie for the iPhone.
