I also won't be using the Facebook group, as I got kicked off last year for supposedly violating their terms of service. I can't see anything that I did that was so bad that I needed to be instantly removed. The only thing I can see that would cause them to instantly disable your account is impersonating somebody else, but I wasn't doing that. There's no human you can work with to understand what you did wrong and their automated processes don't change anything. There's no way back from this. I tried creating a new account, but that doesn't work. Looking around the Google, I'm not the only one this has happened to. Just be aware that "something" can happen and you're done with Facebook. Forever. It's been about 8 months now, and I'll be honest, I don't really miss it. On 4/19/2021 6:02 PM, Eric Caron wrote: > Hi Richard, > > > I won’t be spending time on Facebook.

And I do supplement my posting a bit on the Wet Westies email group. That email group is looking more and more like Vanagon.com as tech questions are increasing along with the camping event info.

I know many of us are curmudgeons and set in our ways. Time for a change. Try it for a couple days. Delete if not happy. But I think you will be happy and delighted. Otherwise I would not have suggested. And, we crave your wisdom. >> >> On Monday, April 19, 2021, 3:14:19 PM PDT, Richard Koerner <rjkinpb@sbcglobal.net> wrote: >> >> Folks. Get real.
