STOP, LOOK at this & LISTEN

[ELVIS611]

Maybe its just me, but it seems to be that everytime I read a post its always the same members that reply. Maybe again that's because they know it all and we don,t. ELVIS, is , was , and always will be for everyone full stop. That's the way ELVIS wanted it and GOD bless him that's the way it is. Please instead of texting between yourselves encourage younger and non members to have their say.

anybody can have their say....nobody stops anyone from answering anything....some of us have stronger opinions than others....but everyone can reply to whatever they want...so not sure what you mean? If they don't choose to - we can't help that. And there are some younger members in here answering: Jen (presley31) Danielle (Burning Love) Linda (Rising Sun) just to name a few Marija and also Yadee, etc. there are numerous young ones in here answering and they sure tell us their opinion - as it should be - they are all wonderful young ladies.......if I'm misunderstanding what you mean, please forgive me and maybe explain it again?

I encourage ALL to post . Makes for a nicer and varied view.
On any site I've been on; there seems to be only a few that interact.
Some are bashful; some are intimidated by the boastful, loud mouthed ones that just seem to like to keep something stirred up.

Though I've been here a short time--I'm not a young thing. Certainly not new to Elvis; nor do I know everything. Most of us have areas we're more interested in than others.
. I'd love to hear from any new, younger generation. Sometimes "young eyes " catch things we'd never see. So speak up --so I can learn what you know too.
No one knows "everything" about Elvis. There's just too much info out here about him.
Welcome to TCB World.

I'm a bit confused also.....I thought Elvis611 is saying that none of the younger people post in the forum threads, which is not so.......so Elvis611....please explain what you mean??? We want to understand okay? Everyone is welcome anywhere.....threads, chats, etc.

As for the younger fans.......it's not true. I mean, look at me, Danielle, Emily ,Holly,Pauline, Linda, Toffe........and few others We are all active posters


Yes, well , to all new members that are not feeling welcomed to post :

PLEASE DO SO! We need new posters! It's an open forum after all
I am sure we would all be happy to see many different opinions

[Rover]

Elvis611...first thing, welcome here!
And then, if you feel like somebody is talking too much, too loud, too fast, you BELT him or her! Seriously, young member can have their say, just post and we will read what you have to say. And of course Elvis is for everybody, even if you don't know much about details like dates, releases, jumpsuits, MM members,...

I am a relatively young fan (30 years old). I do not post replies on all topics basically because I do not know everything about Elvis, far from it. There may be topics which don't interest me personally (even though they may be interesting to most of you).
When I started following Elvis, everything I read (there was no internet at the time) was new to me. I was bombarded with new facts, rumours everytime I picked up a book or magazine. Today we have fora like this where different great individuals (young and old) share information and opinions which may be new to some, even older fans. I think that the members of this forum are a mine of information about the King so keep posting!!

I find this thread hard to understand seeing as you have been a member since February 2006 and you only have 8 posts to your name. Why didn't you reply to other threads yourself. It is obvious from your post that you have been keeping an eye on who posts to what thread, so how come you haven't posted much yourself.
Is it just me or do others find this baffling

some are intimidated by the boastful, loud mouthed ones that just seem to like to keep something stirred up.

I'm sure they are, cameron, I'm sure they are ...

Don't let anyone keep you from joining in-if they treat you rudely or disrespect you report it to the Mods here. Respect is the key word to disagreeing with a little grace and tact.

I agree with Cameron. I think some people get intimidated because sometimes I do. So often I see a good debate turn sour because people start arguing and and cutting each other down. I'm gonna admit that I do not know everything about Elvis but I would like to learn all that I don't know. I also would to join in the forums more

Yes, Jen. A person, whom I adore, gave me some advice a long time ago, that "you have to stand up for yourself, and be true to you, you will feel better for it".

I would feel just horrible, people would say things to me, this place is nice, in comparison, and I didn't say anything back, just remove my post. Not good.

So, yes.

Sometimes, even that doesn't help. Block the rude ones from view.
It helps a great deal .
One can express their opinion without being mean or hateful IMO.

I agree: block the rude, illogical and "holier than thou" ones from your viewing. It really does make things nicer ...
