If the CB

Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

If the CB

If the CB was real life...

So there are a bunch of videos about what social media sites would be like in real life. But what about the CB?

I have a few ideas already...

Admin-monitored conversation: Someone wants to say something to me, so they walk up to an Admin (who is sitting in the same room) and tell them the message. Then they report it to me. It's like a giant game of constant telephone!

CBer picturing: A CBer who has brown hair and green eyes who is wearing a red shirt walks up to another and asks, "What do you think I look like?" The other one replies, "Oh, I don't know. Maybe with straight blond hair, brown eyes, and a pink ball gown."

What are your ideas?

Oh wow, that sounds cool and slightly weird. But what do they mean, social media in real life? It's already in real life, just through an electronic system.

Well, I kinda see what you're getting at.

To me, I don't think there'd be Admins, but possibly video cameras. Heh. I think we'd all be in a giant room filled with BOOKS AND PAPER AND PENCILS AND NOOKS AND READING SUPPLIES!!!

If someone wanted to host a SKI LODGE :O. We'd get the letter and then go a real ski lodge!!!

If there was an SI, we'd all put some costumes and makeup on and say silly quotes.

I think they mean "If the world operated the way (Insert social media site here) works, this is how it would be."

And YAY skiing! Let's go!

What about our CAPTCHA's? Would they be real and speaking gibberish? That would be fun!

Oh my gosh social media in-real-life-fied?

That would be scary. Very scary.

Topping posts: A CBer says something in a room. Another CBer comes up and replies, and the first CBer vanishes. The replying CBer says "top" and the first one reappears. The conversation goes on as if nothing happened! More people join the conversation. Every once in a while, someone randomly says "top". When people start leaving the conversation, the existing people go "top top top top top please don't die top top top."

All our conversations would have signs over them! We'd be saying twenty different things at a time as we talked in different threads.

SI's: All the CBer's would be standing in room wearing various disguises. One would go up to each other list names at them. If they weren't guessed, they would say a quote back them and knock off more names. If someone was guessed, the one who was gussed would rip off their disguise and either walk away from the conversation, holding a candy plaque, or would stay and just stand there, occasionally guessing. At the end, all the costumes would vanish and all the CBer's would laugh about it, receive more candy medals, and walk away. 

AE's: I'm not even quite sure how these would work. I assume the AE's would be real and just standing there by the CBer, as if unsure of what to do. But when a Ski Lodge arose, and the CBer listed their packing list, the AE would butt into the conversation with crazy comments and speak in foreign accents-

Like this?

*Sigh* Yes, MewFour, like that.

All these ideas would be really cool, but outlandish, a little scary (especially AEs and ski lodges), and definitely crazy. Also fun! So.....

RPs: Er... I guess like SIs, only... um... Wouldn't it be weird if we were in more than one RP at the same time and we were flashing between different charries all the time? What if there were different rooms in the Long Hall of the CB, each for another thread? And there were dates appointed for each one, and if you didn't make it there on time, then... And you became your charrie for the RP room you enter? That would be so cool!

Or the AEs would be a part of us--but able to come out when we least expect it!

Posting pictures:

A person walks into a room and says, "Look at this cute cat I've got!" There is absolutely no cat. Another person asks, "What in the world? I don't see any cat!" "I just showed you a cat!" Then the Admin sitting in the room says, "Your cat was linked in a URL. You will need to resubmit your cat." Everyone sees the cat resubmission as perfectly normal.

Hahahahahaha. Oo what about the Cricket gang? Would they be real? Would we see a bunch of buggies hopping all over the place while a crow swoops down, dressed in trash?

How big do you think they'd be? Haha, wouldn't it be funny if you didn't know about them and then walked into a room where giant bugs were talking and plotting against a particularly ugly, fat crow?

And for a ski lodge, a piece of paper would actually appear in everyone's hands and the people who signed up would be transported to wherever the ski lodge took place!

Games-

One CBer- try to say 'pink fluffy unicorns' with your eyes closed!

Another CBer- 'pnok fkyffy imptovins' Ok, now try to say 'puppies are adorable!'

Yet Another Cber- 'pink fluffy unicornd" So close! Now say 'The world is an egg'

First CBer- Hey, don't talk until you hear the other CBers words!
