    For those wondering. A BBS is Bulletin Board Script. It is stranded sans HTML. However Vanilla, has formatted THIS BBS to accept simple HTML script, or strand. It means you 'tacka post scoot note'. This means you type out you're text, with editing available during the type set pre post.. Then you either hit enter, or click a post button, and the script is 'posted'. This is the only time the bulletin Board is updated. The only reason this one self updates us because it had HTML script written in.IRtC is a type set in a chat room that allows the chat to commence in real time. It stands for Instant Relay-text Command. It means you have to type in commands in order to illicit moving action in the chat. It was the original emoji coding, and how we got our moving smilies, etc. did that make sense?

    It might make sense to Dimi.

    If I had known then what I know now...

    Does anybody else get weird followers? I mean like accounts that have nothing but people that post kinda skanky selfies?

    I had an account I was following morph into one of those. They had deleted all the photos and shit that were there before and changed the name, so im not like 100% sure who it was but the "tagged" posts were still there and it was a bunch of pictures from Castle so I'm assuming it was a Nathan Fillion account that probably wasn't authorized. I just unfollowed it. And my shizz is private so i have to "approve" followers. Recently I've gotten a couple travel/photo accounts which I don't mind.
    Whoever started the account gave it away to someone else, and the other person did that....*MOST LIKELY* This has happened to multiple accounts I've followed when the original account creator decided to get rid of the account and posted about doing so...then the accoun goes crazy for a couple days and then does this...
    The only reason I had any idea what happened was because other people were posting comments on the photos like "what the hell happened" I never would've thought to look in the tagged photos on my own.

    Also I just followed @The Waiting Trophy Man and @whispering hands I'm like 90% sure it's you TWTM even though the name comes up as something else. It's some dude with cats anyway lol.

    Just realized I didn't mention my name. I'm wewerebutstones. Like I mentioned I rarely post and when I do it's probably about my other interests. No cats and no kid pics. I'm a little apprehensive about posting my kids pics online. When I travel for pj I might post a pic or two but I'm a lousy photographer and would rather just live in that moment so I'm not great at documenting even that. Anyway follow if you'd like.

    Oh I could care less how many people follow me. Right now I have 6 followers and if that's all I get that's fine by me. I'm not interested in being popular.

    I just got an ad...'want more followers?' And I can 'buy' more followers. What are they doing, looking for people with a piddly number of followers? They actually called me out, by name...Fuck that, I don't care how many followers I have. I'm more happy when a professional photographer 'likes' one of my pics.

    Yeah THOSE are the people at are desperate to be popular and have tons of followers. I'd never pay money for that. I guess it's also for professionals too, who need to get their pics out there to as many people as possible.

    elite_vine is the pay account, though in my IG it shows up as someone else...like they got their account hacked, cuz that person is a meathead gym dude.

    I only started using it last year when I did the international traveling.
    My friend made me sign up for it for her wedding either 2012 or 2013 (I'm a terrible person) and I posted a couple cat pix after the wedding and forgot about it. Until I went traveling. And even then I kept forgetting to use it at first.

    I'm kind of excited...there is a really great photo editing app from AutoDesk (for free-AutoDesk puts out really great software for large companies), and they do IG contests. Can't remember if it's weekly or monthly, anywho...I just posted a submission for the current one, and they just liked it!
    I've posted before for their contests, and never gotten a 'like' from them.

    I would be over the moon if they 're-post' my pic.

    For artist nerds, it would be like if Corel Draw liked something you posted using their software.

    I kinda am! I took some pretty cool pics today, but I'll slowly post them, I hate bombarding people's IG feeds with pics.

    Can't wait to see them! Haha I bombard all the time if I'm doing something where I take lots of cool pics...I just unfollowed this girl for bombarding my feed with the most mundane pics ever though like she's was going on hikes and taking umpteen pics of the same kinds of piles of twigs...not of pretty things...it was like ok this is boring....

    "hi I'm working with over 200 companies globally on some projects leveraging social media. DM me for more info"

    Anybody get that? Does it sound scammy?
