Apologises if this has been covered: I haven't been on here for a few months because my 75 is laid up.

I am on a 75 and ZT page on FB. There seems to be a lot of animosity against this forum, a forum Ive been privileged to have been part of since 2008. One of this forums members in particular seems to be getting picked on by the FB bullies.

I'm not liking what I'm seeing on FB and havent been following the FB threads for the same reason.

Can someone tell me what is going on please?

It seems that a Facebook user who is seemingly also a member of the owner club Fb group has been reporting certain posts on the group,and getting the posters a temporary ban. Mostly it seems for the use of certain words.
The reporting seems a bit petty and childish, but then is a lot of the language on there is quite unnecessarily rude.
Many believe the culprit is from this forum?.

Thats about it all really all quite not worth worrying about but still been an entertaining read

Is the FB page and this forum linked in any way?

I must be about the only person in the UK who is not on Facebook, is Facebook moderated in anyway or is it just a free for all ?

Pretty much a free for all. Lots of great things happen on FB but not on the 75 ZT page from what I see.

I will throw my hat into the ring and say, Im not either, so thats 5 of us. I have been asked to join a closed group on there, by invite only, I know several of the members are current and former members here.I have declined, simply because I don't have time for another social platform.I am a member on here, and 2 other vehicle forums, as well as 2 trade forums.
