Boxrec on facebook

Post by rhino222 »

Iv'e looked on facebook and found a boxrec page that can be liked.

Is it about time we had a 'boxrec users' facebook group? Whilst i understand it may be perceived as taking some traffic away from here it would act as a better conduit for people to discuss such things as streaming options i guess.

Good idea or not?... im up for it.

Same. Never had any interest in social media whatsoever. This forum is the only thing i am on.

Sure, let’s move the Political forum over there as well, Cambridge Analytica will have a field day with some of our posters.

I think Facebook is kind of retro now. The young don‘t seem to talk about it.

If the debates move to facebook then you won't see me on this forum at all. There will be no point being here.

I hate facebook

A small number of people on these forums don't even like each other, it's clearly obvious... I don't think adding them in to the same FB group would even help.

Nothing wrong with this site anyway. Let's keep eveything here.

Never been on Facebook and never will be, maybe if I was a single I'd use it for sleazing but I'm not so what's the point, I did join up on Twitter but under Handsofstoned and don't put any personal pics or info up, just use it purely for boxing along with some football and funny vids, it's a good giggle TBF but I don't tweet much as your only allowed to use x amount of letters so it's not always good for getting your points across

Boxrec will do for me, I signed up pretty much as soon as I got my first computer, some good sound knowledgeable dudes on here

Not a bad idea Facebook is great for joining specialist groups like boxing I'm in a few mostly tech stuff only people in that group can see it .

It's a terrible idea.

Why move away from a well established but niche forum where 30 or so posters generate the vast majority of posts to form a splinter group on Facebook from scratch where a handful of those posters will sign up?
