@boardkat - I share your feelings on this. The TMO group on FB was created in order to act as a net to catch all those people on FB who were already using that platform to discuss tracking their Mustangs. I plan on using it more as a tool to bring awareness to the TMO forum to people on FB who might not know about the forum otherwise.While we’re on the topic... I see a lot of people posting on the FB TMO page that I never see here - I take it that keeping things separate will continue? BTW, I *hate* that a lot of discussion has migrated away from forums in general; facespace is a horrid platform to have real (and indexed/searchable), technical content. This is how I know I’m getting old [emoji12]
It's true, more people are using FB to discuss technical content for automotive subjects, and that sucks for many reasons. But the masses have adopted FB and we have to make sure our community is represented there in order to bring more exposure to it. I hope that more people in the TMO FB Group will make their way here for a better community experience, so that those discussions will get indexed here and found via Google by others for years down the road. Because we all know the discussions that take place on FB are nearly impossible to find most of the time, let alone reference later.
Valuable tech content is getting diverted there and lost forever. For those here who are in the TMO FB group (or are on FB in general), you can always point people to join here, but not everyone cares to leave the FB bubble to participate on a forum these days, so prepare to be ignored when you suggest it.
I actually wrote a LONG post on this very subject a year ago, on a different forum. Feel free to read it here:
