I think it's OK if each person tweets the tag along with a birthday message three or four times in the day. As long as they're different messages and spaced in hours they won't count as spam.
It will be cool if everyone could use the same # tag because then when someone clicks the tag it'll redirect to all of the related tweets. Probably Axl is gonna click it and read it, so that's my point. We want him and the whole world to see all of our messages together.
By the way, I don't think this has been posted to the other forums, we all gotta do this tomorrow. Don't forget to post to your national GnR forums too!

you guys are all aware that Axl probably read this and probably knows about your plan already right?
Yes, but Axl will be nice and pretend he doesn?t know anything!

I guess we'll need all GN'R forums pulling together on this one.
Everyone informed?
Forums I?m posting are:
Newgnr.com;
GNR Brasil;
Orkut communities.
Others:
mygnrforum - Caroline said she could post there
Gunnerland; GNR France; GNR Portugal (and some other that just scapes me) are in too.
CD.com - I don?t know anybody there and I don?t have an account. Anyone?
Other forums - Anyone else?

It should be menioned in the other forums that we shouldn't spam twitter with the message. Post only once, or at least post tweets with different content each time (containing the same tag).
As I understand, it might not be registered if we spam over and over again.

I am registered in three of the Brazilian forums, also I can ask people o Facebook, MySpace, Orkut, I'm registered in most of the internationals forums as well. I'll post where I don't see it posted until tomorrow (the 5th) night. For those who already made the threads in other forums, it's very important to put the note as Spirit said: to not tweet too much, but only three times, and all with different messages, or the whole thing will be just considered spam by twitter.

Here's a guide I made that you guys can use as a model to post to the other forums:
Here's how it works: when people talk too much about a subject on twitter, it becomes a trending topic, like a huge conversation everyone's having. Then the link to all related posts will show at everyone's twitter home. A lot of people watch the twitter's trending topics. Basically, it's considered what's being talked about on the internet currently.
The whole idea of this is to make #HappyBirthdayAxl (we call it a hash tag, it's like a forum's thread title) become a Trending Topic (or TT) on twitter. By trying to make Axl's birthday become a trending topic, we're trying to make our love and admiration for him extremely public. IMO it's a great way to show love and support with such a simple tool, that has an enormous reach worldwide.
So here is a guide:
1 - Go to
http://twitter.com/
2 - Register an account.
3 - No need to follow anyone for this but if you want follow the band go to:
twitter.com/axlrose
twitter.com/DJASHBA
twitter.com/gunsnroses
twitter.com/bumblefoot
twitter.com/DizzyReed
twitter.com/richardfortus
Under the person's name there's a link to "follow", click that.
4 - Wait until it's close to midnight of the 5th in PST time (California time, UTC/GMT -8). We can start a few hours before midnight actually.
5 - On time to tweet, write down your message for Axl in the type box in the top and in the end of your message add: #HappyBirthdayAxl. There is no need to mention Axl (mention = when you type @nameoftheperson). A flood of tweets directed to Axl is unnecessary. We're trying to pay a public homage here, not private.
6 - Rules to make it work:
- Twitter has a system which detects spam and automatically ignores what it considers in this category, so don't spam.
- According to twitter's rules, messages that don't add value to the conversation are disconsidered. So try to "talk" to the people posting the same tag. It's like a forum, only with 140 character limit. When you click the tag (after you post the first one) you'll find all related posts to help you get into the conversation and know what to tweet. You can tweet more than once but each time you tweet type a different message, trying to follow the talk.
- Don't repeat too much and give a break in between tweets.
- Don't put the tag along with unrelated posts.
- Don't put it with no message along.
7 - Ask your friends to get into the conversation. Discuss Axl, GnR, the tour, as long as you put the #tag for Axl's birthday in the end of your posts.
8 - If you know a forum/community where this wasn't posted, please post and ask everyone to join.

I posted it to Facebook, MyGnR, NewGnR, CD.com, MySpace, GNRevolution, Axl Rose Fan Club, GNRTV.
Now I need to get to the Brazilian forums, Orkut, and my Ashba site.
Where else?
