Ok, I pretty much went and added everyone on MySpace. I am not being creepy, I promise. I'm trapped at home after graduation, hysterically looking for a job, and spend all of my free time on the Internet, 'cause gas is so bloody expensive at the moment.

I also have a Russian language LiveJournal that I update every once in a while, mostly when I feel like practicing my Russian writing skills.

Speaking of myspace... Just don't creep me out in your stalkerishness. ;)

And Lush, every time I see Russian, I wish I could speak it. Or at least read it.

Diamond18 05-22-2006 08:09 PM

I have a MySpace, but I don't ever use it. If you look at my friends, they're all bands or musical artists. All... three of them (not counting the ubiquitos Tom.) However, I may someday use the MySpace to promote my writing, so you can add me on the off chance that I will actually be putting something interesting up there sometime soon. Ish.

Oddwen 05-22-2006 08:20 PM

If I ever get myspace set up, I'll letcha know...'til then, you are all officially stalked. :p

Lush 05-22-2006 08:23 PM

Oh but my dahling Diamond, you only accept friend invitations from people you know! And I haven't the faintest what your e-mail address is! But if you want, you can add me, and I promise I'll accept. ;)

Diamond18 05-22-2006 08:45 PM

Well, I think I'd know who littlelushie is. :D I added you. And Jay, and Eomer, and Fea... going to add Tiggers and tp now. There is nothing to see on my profile but I'm sure if I'm bored enough I'll attempt to do something. It will all be lies, of course.

Any of the skeevy people who might hang around myspace looking for young females to stalk and terrorize will wish they'd never been born should they show up on my doorstep, so I'm not really worried. But it's so much more fun to lie.

Tigerlily Gamgee 05-24-2006 11:04 AM

I've added those who requested me :-)
Lush - I got confused because I knew that was you, but I thought you lived overseas.

Lush 06-01-2006 09:57 PM

Nope, I'm in Durham right now. I did travel a lot back home to Ukraine and other exciting places before (and hopefully will get to do again).

Roa_Aoife 06-02-2006 09:09 AM

I'm on LJ and Xanga as Roa_Aoife. (I tend to keep the same name everywhere- makes it easier for stalkers.) Any one know how to start an LJ community? I know it's possible, I'm just not sure how.

I'm also on Facebook- if you want to add me as a friend, PM me.

And I love the poking feature. *runs off to poke people*

Firefoot 06-02-2006 09:27 AM

Roa - I added you as a friend on LJ. (Firefoot_1428) :)

Roa_Aoife 06-02-2006 09:51 AM

*gasp* LORD OF THE PEEPS! YAY!!!!!!

Kath 06-02-2006 10:10 AM

I also added you to LJ Roa. I'm enpauriel. :D

Lhunardawen 06-03-2006 06:49 AM

I added you on LJ too, Roa. I'm melatariel. :)

Roa_Aoife 06-03-2006 08:23 AM

Okay, rather than clutter the thread, how about anyone else who wants to friend me just comments on my last post with their Downer name?

You're enpauriel? Well that explains that! I figured it was a 'Downer. :)

Kath 06-03-2006 10:55 AM

Yup, that's me :D

I'm exactly the same way.

Xanga: Valesse, MySpace: Valesse, LiveJournal: (I haven't used it in half a year, but its still) Valesse, and DeadJournal: (yes yes, Barrowdowns, haha.) Valesse

I did make a barrowdowns blog-ring on MySpace, so feel free to join that. There are a few people who aren't from this here fine forum that have rubbed their elbows all over it, but its still good! Has anyone created a community in MySpace that we could join? I'm not sure how one does that exactly, so even though I would have taken the liberty to, I, alas, was not worthy. :(

(N.B., stalkers: Out of all of them I'm the best about keeping up the ol' xanga. :p )

Diamond18 06-03-2006 01:51 PM

I tried to add you on MySpace, Valesse, but it requires me to know your email.

Oddwen 06-04-2006 08:52 PM

I think I got everyone - on MySpace, I'm alice_h

ninja91 06-09-2006 11:08 AM

Yeah, I am on myspace too. search "kevin whinnery" (dont include apostrophes). I am the profile with the pic of the Witch-King as my avatar-thingy. I dont go on much unless I have a message or comment or to listen to music and other stuff.

Tigerlily Gamgee 06-12-2006 04:04 PM

Just a request... if ya'll friend me on MySpace, can you send me a message to let you know that you are a Downs person (unless it's going to be obvious to me) :-) Thanks!

Kitanna 06-12-2006 06:12 PM

I'm on good old myspace these days, but I only use it to torture my friends from school. But it's always nice to torture Downers, too.
Oh that wonderful myspace link.

the guy who be short 07-07-2006 11:21 AM

My friend more or less forced me to get a liverjournal so I could read her private posts. I'll be blogging infrequently. Search for TGWBS.

Also, if you're a Downer but your name's not too Downy, could you PM me telling me who you are first, please? Danke.

Brinniel 07-07-2006 12:49 PM

I've heard of myspace for several months now, but I've never so much have bothered to even visit the site. During my days of high school, it seemed like almost every single person in the school had an account and used it to gossip about each other. I guess the reason I've never joined is because there's too many people I know in real life on myspace and I fear that by joining, I'll have revisit my high school life (which really sucks).

Anyways, I'm a big fan of xanga (it's safer than myspace and more suitable for writers) and lately have been blogging there almost everyday. Unfortunately, I'm not able to be part of the Barrow-downs blogring because it seems you have to apply to join and the ring leader has been gone for nine months. :( Oh well....

Check me out if you dare. :p

Gurthang 07-10-2006 04:18 PM

Hey all you Facebook fans out there, I've got good news. Facebook has decided to allow 'global' groups. Which means that we can have a Barrowdowns Facebook group. :D

I've already set one up, so if you want to join, just search for "The Barrow-Downs" and request to join. You should probably shoot me a message, too, because I might not let you join if I don't know who you are. (You know, security reasons ;) ) I only have the photo page to go by, so it'd be easier if you'd just send me a memo. Oh, and I'm the "Weird Admin Guy", just so you know. :cool:

Encaitare 07-10-2006 09:12 PM

I was pleased to note that, Gurthang... you guys can follow the link in my sig for a global Tolkien group. :)

Brinniel 07-10-2006 09:42 PM

You have to have a college email to be on facebook, am I right?

Well, I don't have my email yet, but I should be getting one within the month and once I do, I'll be sure to join. :)

Noted indeed, and I've joined up with both groups, because there's not enough Tolkien related groups at my own school.

MatthewM 07-10-2006 10:56 PM

Yep, I'm part of the addiction too...


www.myspace.com/driftinglikeyou

feel free to add me

Diamond18 07-15-2006 06:33 PM

I got LJ on a whim - http://sarahlitarose.livejournal.com/ I've added a few of the LJ people here. If you want to add me as well go ahead.... I haven't done anything with it yet but I will probably be cross posting my myspace blogs there.

Rockin_tha_Casbah 07-20-2006 12:52 PM

Sad to say, I also broke down and got a MySpace...

(Actually, an old friend set it up, but that's another story.)

The link be here.

Lalwendë 08-10-2006 04:08 PM

My mate's just got himself a MySpace whatsit so I might get one too (despite being the world's slackest diarist - the option of adding amusing music to it is too much for me to resist), but I had a look and someone's nicked my user name! Anyway, I go on a local forum here and have another user name there, I entered that and it comes up with two identities for that name - so, you knowledgeable blogging types, can there be two people with the same user name then?

Incidentally, I did have a blog years and years ago which mostly consisted of ranting but I didn't keep it up for long as I stopped getting quite so angry all the time. ;)

Diamond18 08-10-2006 06:38 PM

From what I understand, there can by duplicate display names, which is different than the user name. For instance my "user name" is sarahlitarose and that's what's in the URL but my display is Sarah Rose so that's what people see most of the time.

Feanor of the Peredhil 08-14-2006 06:30 PM

Be a slacker and use a numerical user name. It'll sort out who is interested in your profile and who wants an easy URL to remember. :cool:

Hookbill the Goomba 08-15-2006 06:55 AM

Not that I update it very often... Here is my Live Journal:

Hookbill's life of Doom Note the number of things mercilessly borrowed (read: “stolen”) from the downs... :D

I don't have a Myspace, but my older brother has one for his 'band' of freedom fighters... Here.

Celuien 08-15-2006 04:24 PM

Well, my Myspace page is here. Mostly vacant, I'm afraid, since my sole purpose in joining was to bother two of the people on my friends list. ;)

Far more interesting tidbits can be found here.

Laitoste 09-25-2006 12:11 PM

In a highly uncharacteristic move, I went and got myself a livejournal...I'm oneofthemearas. I must say, though, I still prefer my paper-and-pen journal. :rolleyes:

Thinlómien 10-07-2006 05:57 AM

If someone called lommy has added you to Lj, don't worry, it's just me... :)

Mattius 10-23-2006 01:30 AM

Hmmm I'm tempted to put my myspace addy up but I'm not sure you guys will remember me- I haven't posted on here for a awfully long time...

Diamond18 10-23-2006 02:12 AM

The words "dancing chicken" leap to mind.
