TV Trope's Facebook page

Not sure who's in charge of it, but well done. It's good to see it more active.

I'm not an active Facebook user myself. My family uses it and demanded I join too and it gets me free stuff from time to time.

So, what can Facebook do for TV Tropes? What can we do with it to further promote the site? What kind of fun can we have with it?

Who's in charge of the recent posts?

Do the P5 or whoever know about the comic that's being used to illustrate Reveal Shot on the page? You know, the one with the punchline about an old man masturbating on the beach?

Oh dear...that's rather over the line, although the comments don't seem to indicate outrage with it.

If we were a democracy, we'd look like 4chan by now. :/

I'm not saying that'd suck, exactly, but I dunno if we're in a hurry to look like 4chan.
I know I don't wanna be looking at Expand Dong ads all day, though, I'll say that much.

4chan is a democracy?

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?

I'unno, but if we started deciding what was what through just whatever got the most people behind it, we'd probably start shifting to having about the same reputation. :/

I think 4chan strikes me as a sort of mob rule kinda place, if maybe some sort of paradox of that and despotism at the same time.

Is it really that bad? It's out of line for an article picture, but it's not much worse than other pictures people share on social networks. I don't think there's a reason to worry about it unless it becomes the norm.

It's more about our reputation than anything.

It's out of line for the actual site; in other words, it's not representative of the website, which a website's social media page should be.

As far as the page's norm, it is kind of hit or miss as far as that, but there have been other posts that make no attempt at being in line.

From Administrivia.Welcome To TV Tropes, Rules and Policies folder. Should our social media presence not reflect the extent to which we try not to be rated R?

I'd just like to call forward this particular issue on Ask The Tropers concerning the Facebook page, from ~Bisected8.
