Bad idea. I am having enough trouble dealing with all the children here if it were to become a facebook forum I would be out.

 

:lol: I think both problems go hand in hand.

I know Drew wasn't serious, but same here. I actually don't even use Facebook because of the people on there.

I left all Facebook groups about ants and won't join any of them any time soon again.

I don't like it because I don't want to sit and scroll through a billion posts of all different topics all jammed into one page.

I would just start giving people warnings or temporary bans.

Just want to remind everybody to post in the correct place. It's not hard. If you are confused, this thread should make it pretty simple. It just takes a few minutes of reading.

if you asked you'd probably get a bunch of volunteers

 

why not make 'move topics only' mod positions?

As ridiculous as it is you would ever need such a group, this is a good idea. :)

Please post "ant keeping" threads in the "General Ant Keeping" subforum, not the "General" subforum.

Who thinks we should just get rid of subforums and dump all topics in the same place with no organization at all? If so, then I'll get rid of this forum and start a Facebook group.

 

Please don't.  The subforum organization is great.  I really hate facebook.  I try very hard to put my posts in the places.

If you did I’d go running back to that spam-riddled Air Conditioner forum.

Don't do that, no one does any research and instead of actually helping with ant problems and discussing ant care, you'd be stuck resolving easily preventable issues.
