I'm curious to see what we're made of. I am sure some people fall into a couple categories, but please answer based on what you did the majority of the time.
If you were active on both Facebook and the FDP, please answer whichever one you spent more time on, or which one you preferred if you spent the exact same amount of time between the two.

I'd prefer to be labeled a consumer than a user. 😏

FDP Facebook user? There was such a thing?
I don’t have or use Facebook so I wouldn’t know.
I think Chris’s attitude toward Facebook is the same as my wife’s.

I checked out the place recently to see what the fuss was about. It wasn't my scene.

Ne'er been a FDP user, that I remember of.
I came here for the coffee.

Does that include "None of the above"? 😁 |

I freely admit to having been a long time (12 years) member who was a somewhat frequent lurker and very infrequent poster.

Just to clarify, it’s not relevant where you came from, what matters is yog’re here. This is 100% just because I’m curious.
I’m also curious how many out of 450+ will even respond.

I'd have to split my usage as 50/50. FDP user until I got hooked on non-FDP Facebook, which I spent way too much time on. So 50% FDP user, 50% FDP lurker.

In ancient times... I was active until about a decade ago. I kind of dropped out and became inactive. Depression is a funny animal. Just by coincidence I went to the old site Jan 3rd to see who was around. Much to the chagrin of the membership I found the new place.

Was mainly a lurker. Would add replies to threads if I thought I had something worthwhile to say. Seldom if ever started new threads the last few years at the FDP.
eta: I don’t do the book of face.

Long-time lurker. I actually recognize a lot of names from other guitar boards.
No facebook, Instagram, Twitter or any of that stuff for me. My life isn't that interesting. 99.998% of social media isn't that interesting or necessary for my day-to-day existence.

No Facebook for me.

Now...this place only. I don’t have time for more.

I think I registered for the FDP 17 years ago, and while I never posted much I did check-in almost every day as I've also done on this new FDP site.
I do use Facebook a lot and I'd probably check-in to any FDP Facebook site if one was available.

I "lurked" more than I "posted" but I checked in everyday. FDP was good to me, I learned a lot there.

Active FDP goober since the early days.
I tried others and gave them a fair shot. I tried MySpace and ditched it. Tried Faceboob and ditched it. Twitter, ReverbNation, Black Business Women Online, LinkedIn. No use for any of that stuff.
I guess I just wasn't a good fit anywhere else.

FDP only, and have never used social media. Used to post early on, but a lurker for many years. I will say the decorum here is proper and constructive. Most of what I have learned and put to good use originated with the FDP. There is a tremendous knowledge base here and a willingness to help and share that I doubt exists elsewhere regarding the specific interests this forum is (and FDP was) about. Steve Dallman, Smark, Willie and the list goes on and on. Peegoo has me very close to cutting a guitar in half for heaven's sake!

Also, just to lay it out there, while the board does provide me a list of people who voted, it does not tell me HOW they voted. So if you are for some reason concerned about that, don't be.
