[QUOTE="Ross_Barr, post: 398951, member: 5486"] I've been pretty active on RS and many of the Facebook groups at the same time for about three years. Once RS was going downhill a bit, I still wanted the forum experience, so came over here and have been very happy with the move. Some great dudes and interesting discussion. I will say that, for better or for worse, for the long term or the short term, if you don't spend any time on at least some of the Facebook groups, you aren't getting the full picture of where the hobby is today. I know I may sound biased as an admin of a few of the many groups out there, but it's just the facts - I'm saying this objectively as possible. With that said, it's entirely possible that tomorrow, next year, whenever that Facebook will no longer be relevant and that the forums may be the best source again, or maybe it will be some other venue. I don't think anyone knows for sure right now. But as a I said, for better or for worse, most of the sales and a lot of what's otherwise going on in the hobby goes down in the Facebook groups. Great that this forum has stayed lively and relevant at the same time too of course. So while it may take a bit more time, my suggestion is if you want to keep your hand on the pulse of the hobby, try to make time for both, even if just briefly. [/QUOTE]
