As much as I like the forum I do think the facebook page has its merits. The forum seems to have quietened right off this past year or so, once upon a time there was many many posts about the numerous fell races, epecially the classics, but now they are few and far between.
I dont think there was one solitary post about the recent Ennerdale race, in the past there has been pages and pages, both in the build up to it and afterwards, thats just one example, many well established races come and go without even a mention on here. Whereas on facebook there is often loads of photos and many accounts of peoples experience. I think this generally has a lot to do with it been a newer and younger audience, many first timers who have many questions, and I agree that some of the questions people post seem quite tedious, it does offer up some lively debate. It often reminds me of the forum from a few years ago.
