………there’s so little activity here, I guess more members are needed as well.

That... and maybe some members that support this messageboard and haven't participated (much) yet can give it a try to join in.

I just found this forum a week ago - was missing FECC terribly so this is a welcome find. We just need to get the word out now!

Let's get posting!

It always takes a while before members who enjoy writing and livening up
a forum register. Many are also rather quiet and just read. Balance will come
with time and the forum's popularity.

As expected, things are quieter—and admittedly, a bit duller—now. When FECC disappeared, we lost a tremendous amount of valuable information, both for ourselves and for future fans. That loss includes the insights and perspectives of people who are no longer with us.

After FECC’s closure, several new forums emerged, scattering fans across different platforms such as The King’s Realm, Phoenix, 15562days, Steve Hoffman’s forum, and others. As a result, both information and engagement became diluted. Some fans no longer wish to participate after seeing everything they helped build fall apart. Instead, they now prefer to simply read updates on sites like Elvis Day by Day rather than join discussions in forums.

We must accept that things will likely never be the same. It’s nearly impossible to reunite everyone in one place again. As I mentioned before, you can’t rebuild in a few years what took decades to create...

I think you are right, unfortunately. No other forum will probably be as huge as FECC. It would be nice though if this forum could, at least, grow into a place where fans can share and discuss their shared hobby. Who knows...

I’ve seen many Elvis forums come and go over the years without much activity.
Even FECC had much less activity in the past year compared to 10–20 years ago.
So i’m not too optimistic about there being a lot of new posts/topics on this new forum.
Just my little opinion — and if I’m proven wrong… then great :)

It is so that Facebook has taken over a lot in the internet world... but there is always room for a good discussion forum to me.

Ignore any negativity, it's a great thread.
I don't contribute much but I enjoy reading it.

Phoenix had been running for years, and following the nastiness that occurred, was up and running again within a day or so hosted by a new host, but it remained behind closed doors. Many of the old members were contacted, and many returned.
