Dead club?

Postby davea » Sat Aug 16, 2014 11:39 pm

Does anybody use this web site/club?
I thought it would be much more active than it currently is.

I still visit three or so times a week and try to contribute to help keep things going. Its a real shame as it was so active not that long ago and was a great help when I was restoring my FS1E-A 8-)
Yes - keep posting people - anything that may be of any interest :)

I am sorry to say that this Forum suffered greatly from the previous hosting company pulling the plug on the whole website and Forum a while back and has never really recovered. Also like Kathy mentioned, a lot more people find Facebook and easier option which is fine but that Group is open to both paid up members and non-members alike.

The Forum and Events are only ever going to be as good as the Members who contribute to them and I really don't understand why there is such apathy on both counts?

The Club, Committee and a few hardcore Members spend a lot of time, effort and money on providing this platform for all members to use as well a organising numerous events throughout the year, but very few paid up members ever get involved in any capacity whatsoever!!?? It begs he question why do they join the Club in the first place?

As the old saying goes" You can lead a horse to water but you cannot make it drink it". :roll:

I have made numerous personal pleas to Members to use the Forum more and I also encourage every new member to come on here and introduce themselves upon joining but very few ever do!? :|

If anyone has any suggestions of how we can get this Forum to be used more please feel free to PM me with them ;)

Regards

We already do this through the Fizzy Parts eBay Shop, which is the Club Shop in effect as all proceeds go towards the running of the Club.

Face Book has taken over as the main communications vehicle for this and many other Owners Clubs it seems!? :| :?

Im very disappointed paid my fee and for what? I posted my first question no reply. I've been looking for parts all post out of date (years) I don't understand why I was allowed to join a dead non active club. Now see if I get a response! !!!

Feel a bit that way too, paid my £10 and there seems to be virtually no activity on here.

Disappointed.
