I was wondering, is the "Facebook Acaeum" group is actually related to The Acaeum website/forum; i.e. used with permission or not, etc?

There was a recent thread on Daystar modules that was locked down by admin because it was out of scope of TSR/WotC which seems like a super strange flex.

I was slightly baffled as well. I suppose if you were just talking about Eye of the Dragon or Brimstone, okay. But Rahasia and Pharaoh, even the Daystar versions, seem to pretty clearly fall under the purview of TSR-related collectibles. Or maybe not so clearly?

The Facebook group is "semi-official" in that I gave it a blessing, and I have admin rights on the group.  But Cory runs it, and obviously a bit tighter than what I do here.

I would like to address this here...
I initially locked down the thread because I didn't look closely enough at the subject matter and was at work trying to sort out what my day would be like. After locking it down, I received a number of messages from people inquiring why it was locked. I explained my reasoning and then took another, closer look at the post. I discussed the matter with a few other people and reached the conclusion that I had acted in haste and in error owing to the historical significance of the topic to later TSR products that, really, are still around today. I have since unlocked the thread and issued a complete apology to the group.

That group is one of the things I miss; I learned some things bit there, even bought something from a member.

But I've completely quit FB. I don't regret that, but I do regret missing out on groups like that.

To any that would be interested: I posted about 20 pictures (about 10 with new content) of my collection on Facebook Acaeum last week.
