Ditto.  Someday I'll make it to a meet, and see the rambler ranch.  Facebook is for people who want attention. if you want friends, go outside.

I myself am not a huge fan of facebook even though I do use it but i'm only on there for maybe ten minuets at the most a day and that's just so I can catch up with family members I don't have phone numbers for.

This seems to be the subject for this, but I remember having to be given the all clear before I was allowed to join.  obviously a spam stopper, but how does it work? how do you know if someone is real vs fake, and how do you go about it?  Seems like it would be awfully time consuming.

Thru years of "profiling" Kyle.  We do have bad member software, but the legitimate looking ones  do get an extra look.  I am pretty good at it now, and Vangremlin has caught on quickly.

We take new member registrations seriously and it will not take us days or weeks to approve new members, like it was in the latter Nest days.
