Why did everyone move to FB? FB is so “out there” in the public space. I would think as Kinks fans, we naturally fall into more of this underground, less likely to be tracked, mode of communicating.
Thoughts?

Hey there Mellie! This used to be a thriving board. The camaraderie was amazing & I spent several hours a day on here 8 years ago. Members started peeling away in early 2013 with the departure of a beloved poster named Sleepwalker. I hung on until 4 years ago when i finally left for Facebook. I had a great time on FB for a couple of years but it has really become fragmented & nasty on there. It cannot hold a candle to the true friendship that was forged on an intimate message board like this. I've tried to get some of the old guard to come back but it is a bit like trying to unring a bell! I will say that you've been the only one to address me since I've been dropping back in recently; which is appreciated but highlights what the problem is with this forum now. How can it be expected to grow and have a solid contingent of contributors if no one here is trying to foster such a thing?

Sad to see mellie has not returned. Hope we did not lose them to Facebook too?
