Activity seems a bit on the low end. Did you start up the forum recently? Another fan forum, http://bsn.boards.net, is very active with many of its members being veterans from the old forum or even BioWare staff members.
I joined bsn.boards.net only fairly recently and it is a forum full of great knowledge that has come about from many hours of research, testing .. and conversations/communication. Shame i got there later. There is some unrest though since they dropped support, and why wouldn't there be the dropping of support left a bitter taste for many so it has to have some effect.
On this forum though, i've been here since the game launched.. i'm apparently 100% for guide ***** (5 stars) but it doesn't seem to be updating any more onto my forum posts, and posts here are much less than they used to be, and most notably since they dropped support.. i think people have started to drift away and certainly the volume of players starting lobbies is less in game too.. or at least that is how it seems right now.
Not sure we need more forums than there is out there at the moment, with this ea answers board, bsn.boards.net and reddit, i think that in the main catches most people, so another just seems like its not going to catch enough drift wood, this late in the games life-cycle.
just my opinion.
