Hello, I have a little story to relay and I would like people's thoughts if possible at the end. I was a subscriber to a car forum for over a year. There wasn't a great amount of activity and someone suggested starting a Facebook page instead because people seem to be on their devices a lot. I was sceptical because I don't really like FB and preferred a dedicated car forum without all the other FB guff, but then someone did it and it was actually a success. All these people connected - we got 60 people in a couple of weeks. However, the page had only been up a week and someone posted a picture of their baby daughter dressed up for a pageant. Well I asked the FB page owners to remove it. The reason? It was not in any way related to the cars and if I want to see a photo of a baby I can just Google it. I also think babies in pageants is just plain wrong but that's for another day.

Well, I am just wondering, with our Media pics we are sharing, should we be just posting virtual place pictures and related stuff? Or do we let people post pictures of anything: holidays snaps, family photos, pictures they have found on the internet? In which case, it becomes like Facebook. I feel we should just be keeping it to everything virtual. If someone wants to use a picture of themselves for their profile pic, I think that is cool, but I think we should limit Media pics to Home pics, or virtual reality pics. Maybe this is because this is what I have gotten used to since this website started. I have been enjoying seeing people's creativity with the virtual pics and videos.

What do other people think about this?
