Perhaps the moderators or owner/s of this forum could create an "i30 Oweners Club" group facebook page to generate more club members and advertise the website and club events around the country. Not to overtake the forum but to attract new members and have a status update from the group say once a week or something and perhaps post new "stickys" to the page so people will visit the forum. Just an idea considering Facebook is the social medium of the web. Thoughts people?  |

Nothing against your "other" club but that would be all the more reason for us to be on there too  I don't really like facebook but there is no doubt it is very popular... I cancelled my membership.. If one of the other moderators or the Administrator wants to set one up.. anything to bump up our numbers.. |

i'm confused - the Brunei facebook website link goes to here. do they have their own website?
and the second facebook link is for here, is that from someone here?
The brunei link was added by their admin as an external link, which they point here. I set the second one up. I agree about facebook being a waste of time, especially at my age. HOWEVER, it could be useful for when our club goes offline... we can get together on there and discuss stuff, like "why is the club offline"...  |

Feel free to set one up. I don't have the time these days to play around with these things. Just be prepared for the increase in spammers and time wasters on the forum  |

My experience of the association of a chat facility with a large forum was the start of it's ultimate demise. Private conversations, in-fighting, cliques. And that was just the moderators |
