Cheers to that. I was constantly on again, off again on the FB page. The constant influx of newbs who copped an attitude with people was very offputting to me. I only recently rejoined it because of the egregious amount of spam on here lately.
It wasn’t deactivated, Facebook automoderation freaking nuked it. The group admins can try to appeal, but speaking from experience as somebody whose (very popular) Jurassic Park fan page got nuked last year, there’s very little chance of recovering the original group. We ended up creating an entirely new page with the word “unofficial” in the title to avoid further confusion. It doesn’t have the reach the original page got, but we’re getting there.
I personally always preferred this forum over Facebook. I would check out the Buy/Sell area and even then I had to use my mom’s account because I don’t have a Facebook account myself. Instagram is the only social media I use.
Honestly glad I have no choice now! Less phonies…Going to facebook group was such a habit…this is a great new start…as i said…the resurrection of the forum is upon us!
I always preferred the forums anyways. Although I will miss being able to go back and see some of my photos in there. Was going to go in there and save them all back to my external but not looking like that’s going to happen.
