Facebook is somewhat fragile as far as shutting down an account, and then a person has to go
appeal to fbk, and it's like dealing with 17 year olds.
The jerks who tried to destroy TR would continue to shut down the TR fbk account.

I emailed the people who held the passwords to TR's fbk and they would not help at all.

Bob,

Facebook pages themselves have largely become irrelevant, with user generated Facebook groups having almost completely replacing traditional pages or forums. As of today, the "Tampa Car Scene" Facebook group has 8700 plus active users with people posting content every day. If you want to participate in Tampa Car Scene you need to participate in these Facebook groups.

Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

When a person goes here:
https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/forum.php
and scrolls down to "upcoming events in the next 14 days"
there are about 8 pages of postings.

there are over 1,000 postings per month.
For March the lowest number on only one day is 60 postings.
I saw one day that had 126 postings.

The way search engine algorithms work on vBulletin forums such as Tampa is that they use automated programs to read and index the contents of a website for changes. Every time this is done it shows up on the forum's statistics counter as a post, page view, visitor, ect. The reason is is done is that search engine companies need to make the content on the forum searchable when you preform a search online.

Constantly replying to old Tampa Racing threads is not going to draw more actual human traffic to Tampa Racing. What you need to do is hid all of the legacy sub-forums from public view and just leave up a new general chat forum and a local meets picture forum.

Go out to the meets in area and post the picture on TR. Go onto Facebook and Instagram and promote TR to people that have not been exposed to it.

Everyone has their own opinion.

Thank you for bringing that to my attention.

I don't have to prove anything to anyone.

Years ago when Tampa Racing had over 2,000 views at the same time,

experts from another Now-dead car site said that It was me looking at over 2,000

threads at the same time.
------------------

They had no explanation as to how that was done.
