Oddworld Myspace?

Not sure where to post this, it's not realy art, or anything to do with the forum, so I posted it here, if it needs to be moved, or closed, please do so.
I assumed there wasn't an oddworld myspace, and thought, since other games and things of sorts have them, why not oddworld? It could be a way of further linking fans, including those not on the forums, and could inform them of new things probably more effectivly, because I assume an email is sent when something is added.
I'm not sure how facebook etc. works, so maybe it could be on there instead, if it works.
I would very much like the input the idea.

It's not a bad idea. Certainly not worse than the idea of Myspace in general.

If anyone is on Facebook, they can join the following two Oddworld-themed groups:

Actually, there is a couple oddworld myspace pages, but they aren't really official or anything. They were the first though...

The only place there isn't an oddworld group is on gaia:

http://gaiaonline.com/

I checked the guilds section. I found quite a few rarely seen OWF members though, but they didn't have enough gold to make a guild. I'm just too lazy to do it myself.

And I know it's just to spread awareness of oddworld. (I often entertain the thought that oddworld might be just as popular as halo...)

How is it ruining Oddworld? It's just a way for fans to express how much they like the Oddworld series.

Well thanks for searching Scrab queen!
I wonder if there are fans that don't know of the forums? or haven't bothered to check.
And I agree with Jordan, and as I was trying to say, it's not Myspace expecially, it's any form of site that oddworld fans can group together.

No, I found you by searching for ‘Oddworld’. The word is on your profile.

Oh. Right. I didn't expect it to work like that...

EDIT: No wonder. I tried it, only the three oddworld groups, you, me, and "THE BAGETELLIES" (a band who has apparently played with another band called Oddworld) come up.

Interesting. I get a couple of other people, including one of my long‐standing friends whose Facebook account I also only found through searching for ‘Oddworld’.
