[Frameworks] Facebook: PLEASE STOP

[Diana Arce]

Everyone I've known whose ever left Frameworks was because the threads  
here became less about film and were filled with long threads about  
other things completely IRRELEVANT to filmmaking.

Some people don't like Facebook or web forums or email but everyone  
needs an email address to participate in the first two. There are  
other experimental film discussion groups and possible on web forums  
and now on facebook.

So, please, just Stop!

Diana
