Further to this discussion:
Now that I've added a shoutbox to the forums, in the coming weeks I will be closing the current Facebook chat. I will be slowly reducing the content I post to that chat starting with ceasing answering anyone who asks when the next event is or what time it's starting. Another chat may start in its place but it will not be one I'll be involved with (I will leave it any time I'm added unless it's vitally important for me to post in that chat and not here) and will be posting any of my important information to these forums.
It's important to recognise that as a community we will not be able to grow focusing our discussions to Facebook, while it started out as a place to discuss live events (i.e. V8 and F1 races) as they happened, it's slowly progressed into more things being discussed there instead of here. RGL didn't get to where it was by adding more and more people to a Facebook chat and it's time we realised we're not going to get to that level of involvement unless we start getting this place more active so more people want to get involved when they visit.
