  The Soapbox - March 12, 2009 + Not exactly a rant but more of a request to the community. I'd like to experiment with an idea I just had regarding Twitter and Guild Wars. As of now, if I want to find someone to do stuff with, I have to shout across the alliance chat or scour my friends list or use the Party Search. As you know, our friends list is limited and there is a limited pool of players in alliances. Many districts are not exactly brimming with available players. I thought that maybe Twitter can be used to expand the pool of players since it can be accessed by cell phones and internet browsers. The basic idea is to have all interested players "follow" each other on Twitter and whenever you want to do something, tweet it. Perhaps someone else might see it and log in to contact you. This idea might flop but it certainly won't work until there is a critical mass of players involved. If you are interested, find me at sarak_layghlin on Twitter and tell your guildmates and friends about it. Thanks! .
