[recollecters]

Welcome to Retrospec™, the last social media network you will ever need. You are one of the few selected to test this exciting new platform based on our cutting-edge algorithms. Less than two hundred invitations have gone out, and membership is not currently open to the public. However, we hope you will come to see how useful Retrospec™ is, given time. We have for your use a variety of features such as text, voice, video, and image posts. We encourage you to explore our many options. Please feel free to use this post as a network mingle. Every toplevel can be considered a new post, and threadjacking is permitted. No NPC response will be given. As a reminder, everything besides uploading a profile picture and information was locked until this post. Usernames are the character's full real AU names, not aliases or chosen nicknames or usernames, and seemed to have filled themselves in; nothing characters do can change or obscure their names currently. Oddly, profile pictures still cannot be swapped out at this time, so hopefully you took a good one. This post is an overflow from the original post here. Feel free to either carry over threads from there or create entirely new ones.

THAT'S WHAT I WANNA KNOW

Augustine/Sycamore

[onceandfuturemascot]

Yes
That didnt seem so weird
I wake up to apps I didn't download all the time
Where it got all my information I dont know though

Re: Augustine/Sycamore

[megabond]

What's even strange is that it somehow filled our usernames with our real names. I was about to fill it with something else to protect my privacy, but when I checked the app once the features are accessible, it automatically entered my real name.

But now that I think about it, I'm surprised that this app somehow has access to my personal info as well.

Social media taking over the world?
Yeah
To be fair everyone guesses that for every new form of media
Going back to cuneiform

[true_noir]

Chloe Bouchard Cuneiform?
Chloe Bouchard I guess that must be a very old form of communication?
Chloe Bouchard But it does make sense to think that sort of thing.
Chloe Bouchard Controlling information controls the world, I hear.

Its definitely not regular identity theft
Which is just more concerning really
We're being messed with for some reason

[notbunaga]

i think id rather be messed with
at least if someone pops out and admits its a publicity stunt i can kill them
people who run phishing scams tend to be harder to track down

[not that she'd actually hurt anyone but]

Its definitely a better name now than it was in elementary school
Its mostly the Penelope
I think I'm the only person named that in the last century

[digthefuzz]

it's unique at least! but i get what you mean
guess i dodged a bullet not getting a middle name myself
i bet it would be something from the unpronounceable section of German names

Alice Penelope Drake I'm here for a Masters in History.
Alice Penelope Drake We've probably TAd some of the same classes.

[openhanded]

Surei Doushi oh!!! yes I remember you now!
Surei Doushi high schoolers sure are fun aren't they

[The grad student who never talks to anybody. She's a legend.]

Surei Doushi sorry I didn't recognize your name at first. it's nice to meet you finally! I'm going for a masters after my BA but you'll probably be done by then... then again if you're teaching any of the history 400 classes next year I'll see you.

It's old-fashioned
Classical actually
Which I mean I'm a history student so I guess it makes sense

[myboggartisthemoon]

My point precisely. As is Alice, as well, so your name does indeed suit your studies. Do you wonder if it was subconsciously influencing that?

Jade

Well yes
But a house specifically
Cat or human you can't really do construction projects on an apartment
Or a tree or some boxes
Maybe he just wanted some boxes...

[rhapsodeity]

you can do construction projects in apartments, kind of :o
and also for sure in boxes!!!!!
you can :(

Who knows?
We can only know what the brilliant people on the History Channel tell us
Be sure to avoid anyone whose eyes reflect camera flashes though
Thats how you can tell the reptilians in disguise

I wish I did but I have no real way to keep one
After I get a doctorate and a steady job I fully intend to become a cat lady though
Just get an army of the little guys

Unless it comes on your phone
Which has its own legal questions that have never been answered
But you DO at least have to give it permission to access things

It might be worth experimenting to see whose information is complete
So we can tell where exactly the app is pulling personal data from
Or we can just find these guys and class-action sue them I guess

[longwei2go]

welcome to the club
the where the fuck did they get my middle name from club
