Miscellaneous I’ve been thrown off of X

[Pete Thomas]

No problem I suppose I can consider it a badge of honour.

It’s very odd though. I got a message saying it was closed because I was underage (<13). The birthdate I had given was a date in 1962.

Anyway they said I could rejoin and must re-enter my DOB. OK it presents me with a calendar thing but I cannot just put in a date. I have to laboriously cycle back month by month not year by year like you can on any normal online date system,

I got fed up by the time I’d got down to Nov 3 1999 so just entered that. But now I get a message saying I need to get a parent or guardian to confirm I am old enough.

To be honest I can’t be arsed Elon Musk bye bye.

🤔 have you been hacked?

Edit: finally understood what's going on.

I don't even thing "X? Oh, Twitter!"

Having read this, I logged in to it for the first time for over a year. I also got asked my date of birth (twice), which on my desktop was straightforward. Then I got a welcome back screen which forced me to enter things I was interested in from their defined pick list. At this point, I also decided I can't be arsed Elon Musk.

It's also just such a horrible looking thing. Yuck. (That's X, rather than Elon Musk. Or maybe not....)

Seems like nobody could give XXXX (4X)

I like the way he rebranded it X and all the media print X (Twitter)

Keeps asking for my DOB but I just ignore it 😀

Consider yourself lucky.

No gentleman will ask a ladies age. Always suspected Musk was not a gentleman. Now I know.

You’re not enough of an extremist perhaps.

Looks to me like he bought Twitter in order to kill it. He must have had a very good reason to spend that much dosh, though.

Congratulation!
I didn't wait that long myself, left after moving over to Mastodon....
Never missed it, glad to distance myself from that creature

People sent tweets on twitter, on X do they send Xpletives?

Musk and Elon are four letter words

I agree and putz is also a 4 letter word that fits.
