Hi Doug,
Maybe I'm wrong about this and in that case I apologize, but my only
concern is that the forum doesn't seem to be too active.
I don't even know how many people are still using it. I personally check
what's going on there from time to time, but nothing more really.
I'm only scared that the 2::week=>FB disappears before it even starts.
The 12th of November there will be the second appointment on the FB
group, it's still a fresh thing and people are only now getting
involved. I have to admit I'm a bit skeptical about moving it to the
forum, at least now. But that said, I personally find the forum a better
place to do this kind of things. I'm not a Facebook fan at all! But the
reality is, more people use FB nowadays and it's not always easy to
bring them elsewhere. I'm with you, the forum is way more appropriate,
but if that means killing the thing... I don't really know if it's worth
doing this.
But that's just my point of view. I'm more than happy to discuss this,
on the FB group as well. I mean, if we see more people asking the same,
so let's move it :)
cheers,
Mario
