I've been active on some of the facebook chainsaw groups for the past year or so, but am quitting them,and facebook,and coming back to OPE more often. I met some pretty good people on those groups ,but also a lot of rip off artist's.
I was recently ripped off by a saw dealer active on the chainsaw FB groups,and when i complained,found myself blocked from facebook because he had opened a complaint about my facebook name. what happens then is you are locked out until you provide numerous ID points to them. i did this,and then found myself blocked from several of the forums because he was Admin on them! talk about nepotism.
Then my new account was removed,he must have had someone else complain about my username. apparently this is a common harrassment tactic on FB,and effective for shutting down critics.
anyway,glad to be back here,there is a lot more honest discussion and accountability here.
