Forums are about to make a huge comeback
Well with all the facebook groups and such forums have gotten quiet. Well as of a few days ago, facebook has started to crack down on classifieds group and freezing them because of live animal sales, people are going to have to find new places.

I hope that bodes well for this & other good forums. I pay ZERO attention to FB, so I'll take your word for it.
I have heard many complain about the excessive drama on FB though...let's hope they leave that where they found it.

Yea, all the groups that sell animals are getting frozen. I only know because one of the venomous groups I used randomly vanished.

Yeah I just learned today actually that Facebook frowns upon all the selling I did not know that.

They always have. They've just been a lot more forceful about enforcing it in the last week.
You can still advertise and sell on your own business page, just not in a group.

Yeah they've locked at least 15 groups that I know of.

Re: Forums are about to make a huge comeback
Some Facebook groups are horrible, and censor anyone with a differing opinion. The tortoise forum Facebook group is so bad that some people have made fun of it on actual tortoise forum.
Recently? One member got banned from a group for saying cypress mulch wasn’t toxic.
Here’s one thread about them in general-

I’m fine with that personally. Facebook is a decent marketing platform, but the animal sales on there are crazy, with people auctioning off animals like grandmas bedroom set. Lol
And the animal “groups” are often run by douchereybaggers.

Reason: Please do not link to your own sales page in your posts.

I hope it helps this forum! As I have never had a Facebook account, and that’s rare for a 33 year old
