look out!!!
Our Facebook Group members have a *lot* of suspect individuals. Many people with zero moto on their page, let alone BMW. And... there are many fakes that have a few bike pics in their profile and belong to a million different moto groups, where they can build lists for their own purposes.

Yes Ian, some have had trouble after an upgrade or server change but Ted gets them back up pretty quick.
Overall, people seem happy with TapaTalk. I'm not really familiar with it.

This is one of the reasons I only had family and other people I physically knew, as 'friends' on fakebook.
It may be a good idea to filter access to the MOA fakebook page by asking for current valid MOA member numbers and thus reducing/eliminating fakes.
It will be a bit of work but, IMHO, worth it to keep some semblance of integrity on there...
I was one of 6 admins for a large MTB group here in S.Florida and we started by adding those people we all knew for real and slowly added more people who where vetted by the group.
On occasion a faker would get in and spam the page, but they were quickly eradicated like the rats they were. YMMV just my 2 pennies....

Exactly how it currently works on our group page. As we have a demonstrated model of active recruitment to non members (I have personally recruited six members on the group page in the last 12 months); I have, and will continue to advocate strongly that it remains an open site.
As so many here have voiced their concern about our membership numbers, it follows that every recruitment tool available should be used to its fullest extent.
The key to keeping our Facebook presence viable is the continued policing of gross violations not just by our moderators and admins, but also by members that observe the transgressions and report them in a timely manner to admins.

The air in Colorado smells funny let's go there!
Just flew back last night from a week visiting family in Colorado Springs. Trail-riding on horseback thru The Garden of the Gods / a visit to "The Dragon Man" (more military history/memorabilia in one place than all other museums combined!) / Seven Falls, etc.
