[Nyoro SF]

I forgot to log out of my fake alt Twitter account, help!

check out some of these fake accounts, too obvious it's them: https://twitter.com/skatefisher

LOL that account. omg

 

[Milennia]

It could be a FAQ that they are trying to make public?

Or the dude who runs the twitter actually didn't know.
(Its the first one)

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

Same person?

Social marketer apparently, so sounds about right

[AngryMars]

They just deleted it

That is amazing for all the wrong reasons.

 

[DoubleTake]

Thats pretty funny lol.

Even funnier is how you people catch this stuff hahah

 

[Aquamarine]

lol what

The Xbox account is probably run by Microsoft's principal advertising firm. So yeah, it's just a case of "We forgot to log out of the main account / into a fake one."

I don't blame Microsoft for manipulating social media through fake Twitter profiles. It happens all the time in every industry.

 

[Phire Phox]

LOL, that's pretty funny.

 

[Tsundere]

They just deleted it

It will live on forever!

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

I wonder now if all those tweets yosp replies to are/were real.

 

[smik]

Forgot to switch to their fake alt account? lol

yep

there is no other explanation, generating fake support questions to help other people

weird.

 

[Doctor_Thomas]

I wonder now if all those tweets yosp replies to are/were real.

He replies to me from time to time. I have no game industry connections.

 

[Kibbles]

The bio leads to

so weird

why the hell do they have their coordinates to their home on their twitter bio? lol

 

[FinalStageBoss]

Lol caught red handed

 

[oSoLucky]

I wonder now if all those tweets yosp replies to are/were real.

Maybe not, if he thinks answering "no" or "yes" will generate some sort of PR buzz. I would imagine that him/Major Nelson, i.e. the PR/Marketing figureheads would get enough real tweets to answer most questions, more than a faceless support account.

 

[Kaako]

You dun goofed now, cupcake.

 

[FloatingDivider]

I need a job like this. I have the attention span required to type out 140 characters. I'd also have better browser session control to avoid mishaps like this one. Seriously, if anyone knows of any company looking for someone to do this for them but better and cheaper feel free to PM the bajeezus out of me.

The interesting thing is that this particular tweet was tweeted from browser (Web Twitter). Actual social media accounts use some kind of client

 

[kick51]

that fucked up car is eerie and foreboding

Exposed

 

[dragonflys545]

LMAOOOOO That's funny.

 

[shem935]

Never give detective gaf a lead

 

[vpance]

Social Media Spammer more like it.

 

[Barzul]

Omg, the speed at which gaf discovered everything about her makes me realise just how exposed I am by being online.

 

[Ouren]

Let's go to her house and leave a PS4 on the doorstep.

How does $38K/year sound to you for doing this job?

 

[Tsundere]

One can say, you're always online.

 

[Killing_Joke]

Going by those tweets she's worth every penny. Hope she gets her Kinect fixed soon.

 

[shem935]

sounds amazing...I would tweet for 38k

 

[Silky]

more than I make already

im unemployed

sounds amazing...I would tweet for 38k

Average middle class income is around 50-60K/yr if I recall

 

[Princess Carl]

Its not. That's sounds more like the average household income, which tends to two sources of income.

 

[Saganator]

I can't believe people have legitimate jobs for social media. What kind of previous experience do you need to get one of these jobs? Are these people like bottom of the barrel marketing majors?

 

[dragonflys545]

LOL someone's gonna get fired.

 

[Saganator]

LOL someone's gonna get fired.

Maybe she'll find a real job.

 

[Dead Prince]

LOL someone's gonna get fired.

maybe she'll get promoted.

Great, send me your updated resumes. I'll forward them to this multinational corporation in need of at least 1 right now.

While the title is a bit of a joke amoungst marketers, the position involves a lot more than just "updating twitter and facebook".

Honest mistake, it's not really that bad. I doubt she is even going to be in any/much trouble.

 

[saunderez]

Its completely ridiculous to me they even have to resort to doing this. As if there aren't enough legitimate questions sent to the XboxSupport twitter account. What a sham.

 

[-PXG-]

How does $38K/year sound to you for doing this job?

I'd do it. For real. I really would. Easy, mindless work that I could easily do from home.

 

[Askherserenity]

Why would anyone put their home coordinates on there....Unless it's not her home? But why omg this is so weird.

What happened to that car!?

 

[IISANDERII]

Honest mistake by an employee, no doubt.

Their honesty terrifies me sometimes.

When it became apparent XboxSupport needs fake questions about the Xbone, it does become a bit of an issue.

It depends on where you live, as different areas with different avg. costs of living have different mean/median incomes. Either way, 50-60k is much higher than the median(better metric than mean, which is skewed too much by the extremely high income) in most areas.

 

[simplythebest]

Honest mistake by an employee, no doubt.

OR a hostile takeover

 

[KillerDark]

Hahaha that is hilarious

Turn the W upside down. Presto. MS HQ.

 

[davepoobond]

I'm freaking out over here man. This is way too fucking weird for me

 

[saunderez]

Why do they need fake questions? Are the real questions making them look bad? I don't understand why any company would need to do this when there are a plethora of people ready to complain about their product and ask for help
