Have social networking sites knackered forums ?

   as a veteran/old regular of this forum and previous regular attendee of meets i admit that there's only so much you can take of people repeating the same congratulations ("looks great" etc) when someone changes something insignificant on their car, it gets very old very quickly.
i spend more time looking at the pistonheads forum, a good discussion and very diverse range of topics capture my interest more than a one-make forum these days, much like the meets - i much prefer the car shows since they are hopefully a bit of a mix and with cars unseen and of different marques and ages.
maybe i'm just getting old and/or losing interest... it happens... there are old old regulars that have been and gone when i was an active member too, people get bored or move to other makes of car or simply decide that active club life just isn't their scene and prefer browsing the forum and using it for technical advice and such-like when required.
just my two-cents...
