I a m the same and doubt it though sadly Tex - but I would love to see it as well mate!
I would love for nothing better - as nobody who did'nt "do Forums" will ever appreciate the 'net's very early infancy of this (circa late 90s to early noughties) and too Groups like Yahoo groups as well too - they sure rocked
I reckon that Facebook will eventually get replaced by something else ( like MySpace was ) and just lose its appeal .. then everyone will come back to the forums ..
I don't think that I will be joining its replacement - I often end up having a "once bitten, twice shy" feeling towards social media.

I have to admit that even though I have been a member of Facebook for over a decade, I try to stay away from the website - I do feel a bit uneasy mostly because: A) My real name is on there and others can see it; and: B) Seeing so many familiar names from the past makes me feel a bit uneasy, whereas on a forum like this, I can feel a lot more anonymous and incognito when I post. As far as I am concerned, the forum is still going strong, and compared to social media it gives more comfort and one can use this without any fingers pointing from familiar people who I knew in the past. I am also with Twitter but haven't used mine for a couple of years now.
I think it's par for the course with most forums. One of the forums I frequent has more than 10,000 members but there's only a few dozen or so active members who are the core group. Social media is also a factor as I also spend more time on Facebook these days.
I think you're right there Victor I think Facebook groups are replacing forums, forums are a bit old school now.
