Like others here, I've abandoned Facebook. It was getting to be too intrusive and full up with idiotic shared shite...


Thank heavens for this forum. Everything I need is here...

Yep, I have been a member of this forum for some years now. It's great. We just offer a chance to diversify.


Somebody mentioned it's free... So is facebook, or you been conned!


Jamesy, I checked. You can't receive Royal Enfield GB posts in your news feed unless you have at least 'liked' the group... Maybe it's one of the other RE groups sending you stuff??


Still, Both on here, the midland bullet riders forum, and the various facebook and other groups all help to add to the RE experience. There are really too many for someone to belong to all, but you pick and choose which you want and leave those that do not suit you.

We got a few famous people as guest members, even one of our hosts is a member (I think they like to keep an eye on us)!

There has been a lot of controversy over facebook. I don't put very many personal details on it, so I am not too worried about what happens, but then everything I do on the internet is recorded by UK gov, every time I walk down the high street, I am on CCTV, and any transaction over £5000 goes to Her Majesty's gov, so I guess that anything that anyone wants to know about me, they pretty much do already LOL! They even record number plates on those blue cameras on the A roads, so no point trying to say you were somewhere, when you had been somewhere else as every car journey that passes one is saved for 3 years (from memory). The Devious LA will sell your personal details to any private parking company that pays them £2-50. Even George Orwell would be shocked.

Still... We like to think we have a good group and people seem to like us. YAY!


Come try us if you are interested, or don't if you have worries about facebook security. Can't say fairer than that!

This is photo of my wife's Facebook page and although out of focus you can make out Royal Enfield GB and the post is by a John G Carlton.There was loads more posts.Now you tell me how she got these posts without being a member or putting any likes.This happened after I answered this original post.

Jamesy, that shot of the screen shows a group called Royal Enfield Riders GB not Royal Enfield GB which is a different group. You may be blaming the wrong chap!

There's absolutely no doubt in my mind that after reading this post someone has somehow been able to access my wife's Facebook account.These groups have all got there fingers in each others pies.

Surely no uses anything other than temporary email addresses and made up names and incorrect contact info along with a regular change of IP address for any of these data mining sites these days.
