Then I'd guess that facebook is taking over everything. Really I'm using forums since 1999 and still using forums. Forums... Everything is so beautiful. People are very nice talking to everything. Discussing everything. A lot of people talking through forums, articles, learned to write. A lot of people learned that information through in forums. However when facebook released then most of people go to that facebook and forums dead. And now people using only some big boards.

Surely, you comment and like about anything on facebook, but forums are still avenues to shared ideas with people who you do not frequently meet and know at all for this matter.

Facebook is turning into myspace and will eventually be the death of itself, lol. Whatever, I would guess you don't understand me or actually you hadn't use a forum yet so if you use it then, may be you would understand me. If you a facebook fan or more activity user then please don't forget to facebook consumes your soul. I have noticed a trend on lots of forums. It seems that Facebook is really killing forums. People post up build threads and pictures pertaining to our "sport". If you have a lot of friends that are Facebook post happy, then it disappears from your wall view and you may never see it unless you constantly monitor it. It kinda sucks. It is a real disadvantage over vBulletin forums where you can click "new post" and all of them are easily visable and not lost forever. Also searching in google will display vbulletin post on forums where facebook post will not. So when you need information pertaing to some help thread, you can find a solution. I think people really should consider putting their post on forums. It helps us all in the end. Be part of the help and keep your post on forums!

Please believe me I think, I knew you have no facebook account : ) I'm sure that's awesome because we do not want to end the forums.
