Facebook page for GTR owners ?

[Mac]

I'm aware there is a Facebook page for GTR owners but it's managed or it's administrator is Korian, based in Koria & most of its subjects & topics are Korean!

I'm not interested in Korea..... Are you?

Does anyone else want a Uk GTR Facebook page?

Do you guys like Facebook?

Would you use it?

Would you like to see photographs of ride outs etc..... Because Facebook is so easy to use as opposed to this forum....

Do you want more ride outs locally?

Should we start one up?

Personally I'm more than happy with the excellent work being done on this forum and the administrator is a top bloke - I'm sure I would look at a FB page but don't see me leaving this place any time soon.

I agree with what Pete said..

I am on the US concours 14 page. I find that one so much better than the GTR one.

Facebook is good as a quick up date thing.  Almost as an ongoing daily diary and it is easy to post photos on there, BUT unlike this forum, you can't go on Facebook and search for a particular past topic.

For example, if someone posts a photo on Facebook of how to change the TP Sensors, unless you see it at the time, it means endless scrolling through old posts to find it.

An active forum such as this turns into more like an encyclopedia of topics rather than just a whimsical diary.

I use Facebook for my training school for continuous up dates and news but it's not something you could then search.  It is more of a point of contact to keep in touch with former and potential clients.

A GTR Facebook page might be a useful addition but certainly not a replacement for this forum.

I wouldn't use FarceBook, moved over to Google+ years ago and haven't looked back.

There is a Google+ GTR 1400 Community page, but not a lot is happening there. Better of just searching.

Love this forum, hate Facebook, however hard you try it seems that loads of rubbish you don't want keeps turning up, it's all losers and poseurs.Although useful for getting info. I would find it useful if members on this forum could be organised in areas, counties or whatever as it would be nice to get together for a run out sometime, maybe at short notice. There are a great many to scroll through.I appreciate there are groups on here and enjoy their banter but I am a bit worried about just messaging someone out of the blue (it's an old fashioned manners thing, I am a Very Old Person).
Hope you have a brilliant New Year and got what you wanted(as opposed to needed) for Christmas.

I set one up 2 years ago , now with 780 members, me and oliver decker are the administrators, some good stuff does get posted, there are a few on FB so I wouldn't bother setting another one up

Mac, I'm a little taken aback by your post. The fact that a FB page exists for GTR owners and it is managed by a Korean in Korea and most of it's topics are in Korean is irrelevant. Remember Google Translate is only a few clicks away.

I'm not a Facebook fan so it's not something which would appeal to me personally but I appreciate that many can't survive without FB. You say that FB is easy to use as opposed to this forum, in what way could this forum be improved to make it easy to use as I thought it already was easy to use? If it could be improved please advise......

Charlie, do we fall into this category?  Some of the best people I've met (or not), have been through these types of forums.

This Jim is the first forum I've joined (yours is the second) and to start with I felt outside my comfort zone...........unsure of the rules of engagement, not knowing were boundaries lay.

Everyone made me welcome in their own way and I've found PM's to be the way of asking questions making friends and generally enriching life

So Longtom from the forest don't be shy of sending a PM or two.............Who knows next time I'm in Mitcheldean I may have to take you up on that cup of tea my friend.............

Well Jim as we are both introverts who work hard on our extrovert facades we probable do..................(Is it now that you hit me with your hat again ? )

It isn't Kim Jong Un team hacking the FB GTR site is it?
