    Interestingly over on Facebook, a Luke Appleyward sang the praises of the Forum and invited those on Facebook to come over and get involved, even name-dropping a few forumites.

    You'd never guess who was the first contributor to derail the positivity of the thread and pour cold water on Luke's enthusiasm

    I’m not the world’s greatest facebooker actually, although I do post on the fell running group a bit. Mike Bate, aka Alwaysinjured, seemed to have a bit of a negative, and overly one sided, whinge by the looks of things

    Has anybody ever read something on a forum (or facebook) which has actually changed their viewpoint on a matter? I highly doubt it.

    We've also got a thread on the facebook page discussing the forum, which has contributions by forumites old-and-new, heading in the same direction (one former forumite appears to be trying to bring up an argument from the previous decade).

    People don't like forums because, unlike modern social media, you can't condition it so you only converse with people who share your viewpoint. Gives the impression that forums are full of crackpots... when in fact modern social media is absolutely riddled with idiots (ie the general population), but we choose to ignore them and only read what we want to read.

    I'm off to find a political forum and start an argument about the Langdale race... "I'M F**KING TELLING YOU, IT'S QUICKER OVER THE TOP OF ESK PIKE...."
    It may not be quicker, but it is much nicer!
