Also I was just notified that David Ly group of 25,000 + people was just taken down along with Airsoft Swap Meet with 13,000+ people.

Now this brings me to the next thing. All these people are starting to make forums. What these people dont understand is it not just that easy. All these people making forums its going to be like the airsoft groups on FB. Where we are signing into 60+ forums just to sell. The problem is that it doesnt solve the problem at hand. We have plenty of forums.

So what? Plenty of other outlets out there for airsoft on social media. If they don't want us their, screw them and don't use their services.

Also complaining about having to log into multiple forums just to sell. Why are you registered to forums in a state or country you don't reside?  Register with a local forum LIKE THIS SITE, and sell here as usual. If you want to sell elsewhere, sell on ebay or something.

Im not complaining. Im saying what problem does this solve. I am obviously registered here. These arent forums from other countries these are forums being made here in America for America. How does it solve the problem of the sport under constant "attack" is what Im saying.

The problem is solved by using another outlet. Facebook should have every right to do what they're doing, just as a business should have the right not to provide its services to people it chooses. Is it discrimination? Yes, but I'd rather know I'm not welcome somewhere and not give that business my money or give that site any more attention.

Agreed as I said in a earlier post. They are a company not under any influence other than themselves. They have every right to refuse service or anything of such nature.  Thats why people changing the name and the privacy to secret does not work. Facebook can see their own content.

Feel the only reason people who just there pages banned and are making other forums when clearly there is already a forum in place like Airsoft Arizona or Pacific Airsoft is because they are afraid to lose control of what they already had, and I hate to say this but sorry you got banned but we have already back ups in play, your local or state run airsoft forum's! There is no need to spam and make new wheels when the wheels have already been built... And as unfortunate as it is to say some of these new forum are gonna die out, at least that what I think... Just a waste of time to make forums when the olds are still around....

Thank you so much for putting it in better terms. I was having trouble putting it in a way some would understand but yes you hit it on the nail.

I just don't understand, why waste people's time by creating useless forums... I mean what better service could they provide over the state or local airsoft forums...

Instead of building more useless wheels they could be contributing to the wheels already rolling. Also I noticed Airsoftology made a video on FB, and John hits it on the nail.
