ebinmaine 78,334 #4 Posted 13 hours ago I'm still not on the books & faces or any other social media platforms. No intention of it. I've been posting a little less too because of warm weather and job situation. I'd be all for THIS site growing. 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MainelyWheelhorse 2,425 #10 Posted 9 hours ago (edited) Between the weather, family time, and more time at work I haven’t had time to do much with the tractors. Now that it’s getting nice I find myself working on them more. I have noticed an influx of new people coming in and asking questions so that’s a good thing. I have been wanting to do maintenance and fix some annoying things on the tractors so I’ll probably document it when I get to it. Friends don’t let Friends wear Speedo’s…..😬 Edited 9 hours ago by MainelyWheelhorse 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AlexR 2,839 #13 Posted 1 hour ago This is way better then FB though. Build threads are retained, information is searchable, and the people in the forum are all great people. There still seems to be some bad apples on quite a few of those groups on FB. That said I will post occasionally on FB. But I am not going anywhere on here, this is the BEST forum on the internet. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing scientific was used to make that determination. Was just my opinion on the amount of daily posts. I have no idea about the up/down trend of paid memberships. I do see a lot of groups on FB pertaining to WH. Some are moderated well and others just let ya say whatever’s on your mind…cuss words and all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
