Rayella glared at the screen. Her entire Smiletome page was covered in game requests, not a single personal message in sight. There was Croptown, Citytown (now wasn't that just a little redundant?), Wildwesttown, College Gurl, and the list went on. Some games she enjoyed, some she didn't fancy but all of them drove her nuts with their hijacking of Smiletome pages. She continued to glare as thoughts began to percolate. What if? What if people were forced to post a new status or personal message for every five game posts? The game world would come to a screeching halt and people would have time to do other things. The game owners wouldn't be happy but there were ways around that. She was no hacker but she knew some who were. And after all, hacking was better than kidnapping the CEOs and using some of Batman's favorite scare tactics on them. Right? Right. With a sharp toothed grin, Rae picked up the phone.
So, Rayella and I share a frustration, the amount of game posts on social networking sites. They are supposed to be places where you can keep in touch with your friends but anything personal you post is quickly drowned. I try to limit my game posts and requests and clean up any older than 18-24 hours. I wish others would practice the same restraint.
Oh, and by the by, Rayealla is my 08 NaNo based in the DC Comic universe, a shapeshifter who can speak telepathically to animals. Come to find out her mother genetically manipulated Rae and her three younger siblings in a bid to take over the world naturally.
