Facebook slowly strangling this site?

you cant make people buy/sell on here and there are way to many outlets for sales now to even hope people will only use RAD.

They can sell wherever they want Andy, fine with me there are as you say loads of places to sell.
If people are only using rad FB to sell then I don't care if they leave the FB group as they are not contributing to the site.
Our SST's are our life blood not some random con artist on FB.
Personally I would like to make MK weekend SST only(or maybe SST +1 guest), too many times I see people that contribute nothing to the site all year and then turn up at MK and drink free beer and have a great time. When MK is over they just go back to either not contributing to Rad or even worse bad mouthing the site.

This all reminds me of that King Canute fella ... he had about as much luck.
I don't see any problem at all with the forum 'being quiet' ... I don't think it is even ... but it is what it is! ... I certainly would not want to encourage some of the twats I see on facebook over here.
We just need to keep on doing what we are already doing and linking things in to RAD and let things happen if they want to. Stopping sales on the RAD facebook page just gives SkywaySteff more ammo to have a pop with ... personally I'm about on both sites and don't really see that there's any problem. Old Steff said he was gonna blow us out the water with his forum which went down in flames before it even started ... we are still here doing what we do ... nothing is going to stop that :laugh:
Let just let it all be what it wants to be ... everything irie.

We have plenty of users online on a daily/nightly basis but half the time nobodies saying fook all. Think more effort is needed from all of us. :-\
It's good to talk. :daumenhoch:

Agreed Nick, far too many lurkers on here, not contributing enough, only getting just over 100 votes in the BOTM comp when there's 20 bikes entered is proof of this.
As a member, now as a Mod, I always try to start new threads whether BMX related or in the non BMX section, just simply to generate activity. It's the simple threads 'coolest TV/film cars' for example, that people loved and got involved with.
