Sometimes, mainly weekends, there are 2. One day recently (in the last few months), we made it to 5! I think I would say the Forum has slowed down if we consistently only have 2 pages during the week.
It would be sad if the Forum slowed down. I am noticing many more serious questions on Facebook, and the discussions for those questions are occurring on Facebook. There was one I was disappointed to have missed--by that I mean that the discussion was not taking place on the Forum. I wish I could remember what it was. It was a very good discussion with quite a few of the AA taking part.
I'm not opposed to Facebook; I just don't know how to proceed with it in a useful way. To me, it is random and chaotic. I'm hoping over time, as I go there, it begins to make sense.
It *is* random and chaotic. I think that's something people like there. I don't mind it. I'm a little random and chaotic myself.
I keep meaning to repost some of the comments, reworded if necessary, here in the forum so that the good ideas are easier to find again later, and I have done that a couple of times, but not nearly often enough.
