If you start there, you'll probably find the ads for Butt Plugs faster than you could by checking for reported posts.
Seems like the garbage is all this forum gets these days.
Did everybody move over to ZuckerBook?
You can't stop the signal.
Also see reply #7 above from me. Take this seriously.
Why be a member of something you are beg for information?
Look at the two most active organizations in the US today: Florida Carry and Open Carry Texas. Both use facebook because most people are on facebook. Don't be surprised if this forum goes away one day. I don't know anyone who is advocating to keep it other than me.
If facebook blocked the MOC pages I'm sure we'd see a resurgence here.
I don't know if you are still a paid member or not, but if you are you get the monthly newsletter that keeps you pretty well informed, and also make sure you have signed up for the MOC email updates. Late breaking news and important info is also sent out that way too.
Agreed but this forum will ever get the traffic that our Facebook page gets. And Facebook brings in new people.... it is hard to get people to this forum.
I did put it in the newsletter. :) But agreed, the board should post vital member stuff here at least. I'm not a member of the board but I think I have privileges which would allow me to start posts in that area.

[font=]The emails discussed in detail the bylaws regarding office and nominations, voting, nominating procedure, offices open, duties of each office, bios of people running, the discussion/question of candidates (open Q&A both online and via email), voting eligibility, and open electronic ballot (if you weren't attending the meeting in person).[/font]
Members are inundated with information, so much so that some people begin ignoring it.
Notices are sent out regarding every court case or decision, event, opinion, or problem. If you want to attend the Board Meeting online, our finances are detailed out to the penny each month. This is not something we publish to the outside world, though, but as an MOC member you are welcome to attend. It's only one hour once a month online.
The bios are here (as stated in the email of June 29):

The email of June 29 stated (highlights mine):
In order to read the Q&A for those running for each open position, you may choose from the following options.
The first option is a closed Facebook group specifically for paying members to discuss candidates. click link to request access it may take several hours for access to be granted.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/MOCelections2018/ (https://www.facebook.com/groups/MOCelections2018/)
... feel free to ask the candidates questions or simply read their bio to learn about them. NOTE this year we will not have an election topic on the MOC forums as we have in the past, all bios and Q&A will be through the elections Facebook page.
The second option is To email your questions to elections@miopencarry.org with who your question is directed to and it will be posted to the elections Facebook page on your behalf. Once the candidate replies to your question a committee member will forward you the reply.
Yeah, facebook was really the only option this year.Now were are on the same page.
