Realoldspower?
Hmmm I'm getting "bad gateway." The site has had a lot of arguing and decreased traffic lately but it has some good information also. Being an Oldsmobile site I hate to lose it. Rumor has it someone is trying to reserect 442.com but nothing yet. Oldspower is back on line, btw.

Facebook pages are killing the small niche forum. So many sub groups you can find what you need and not need to leave the page you are on. Personally the forums are getring old for me and the FB pages too. Im slowly getting back to my solo status but started pages to show my work.

Yeah I don't get why people post on Facebook. If your not a member you typically can't see the info, whereas anyone can be a member of the Internet.
i see some small businesses that only have a Facebook page for their business, why? anyone can get on the Internet only a member can access Facebook ...doesn't make any sense
you guessed I don't have an FB presence your correct. My local snowmobile club migrated from a web presence to FB only? Result? I and I'm sure other members have become less active.

The problem is realoldspower.com has to redirect you to the real site. The real site moved from prophpbb to tapatalk a little while back (both are bulletin board service providers, like Internet Brands is for CO), and for whatever reason sometimes realoldspower.com tries to send you back to the old (and no longer existing) service.
The *real* realoldspower url is:
https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/realoldspower/index.php
well, for now.

There are several FB pages dedicated to Oldsmobile. There's the OCA FB page,the 64-67 FB page,Olds hardcore racer FB page etc. As with any forum,FB or media,there's some riff raff but over all there's some great guys and info. If you are like some who posted in this thread and don't like FB,stay away.

Dropdown I agree but sifting through the BS. There is some good info. I have gotten to the point I need to ask guys well versed and outside the forums and FB. Specific details i love this site for. It is what it is. For me forums are dying off on a personal level . same goes for FB groups

Asking any real questions on FB is annoying as shyt. So much misinformation and guys interjecting nonsense that has nothing to do with the question. You can ask a question about a quadrajet, get a few responses about doing a holley or an LS and then somebody will that they used to have a 74 Comet, That was a nice car.
