IMDb Is Shutting Down Its Discussion Boards
IMDb Is Shutting Down Its Discussion Boards
According to IMDb, it plans to launch new features in 2017 to help users “communicate and express themselves in meaningful ways,” but it didn’t provide details on what those might be.
Not sure it will be as nice as the message boards. I hate that boards/forums are disappearing. I love them tons better than social media.

Re: IMDb Is Shutting Down Its Discussion Boards
I'm with Pastor Rick...Rogues Holonet is the best place to find the most current info on just about every TV/Movie/Entertainment/ info out there....
As well as just plain old chatting and other topics...

Re: IMDb Is Shutting Down Its Discussion Boards
I have the link in my IMDb profile, and I've posted it on several of my favorite boards on IMDb.
I also have a link to Grimm's Hollow in my IMDb profile.
And I also have a link to the board here for: Movies, TV and Theatre in my IMDb profile as well.
Plus, links to all my boards and hangouts.

Re: IMDb Is Shutting Down Its Discussion Boards
Okay. I've been making suggestions on my favorite IMDb boards, and today I posted:
My co-Admin at Whoosh's message boards is on Staff at Runboard, and she and a few other staff members there will do whatever they can to help newbies set up a board.
http://www.runboard.com/
The Support Board: http://bakheva.runboard.com/ <--- Post here for help. Mention you're refugees from IMDb and I'm sure she'll be extra helpful in appreciation of you choosing Runboard as your board provider.
The Runboard Directory: http://btherunboarddirectory.runboard.com/ <--- This board is where you can create a thread to advertise your new board. Just scroll down to: "Please List & Advertise Your Board In Any Relevant Category" Also mention in your thread that you're an IMDb refugee so that others from IMDb can find your board.

Re: IMDb Is Shutting Down Its Discussion Boards
Thank you.
I hope IMDb's loss, is Runboard's gain.

Re: IMDb Is Shutting Down Its Discussion Boards
I was in the middle of a post when the boards disappeared, at about 10 minutes to 7pm CST. Apparently the boards were on UK time.
Grrrr!

I'm with you 100%!!! I hate it too!!! MBs & Forums are sooo much better than what they're planning.

Re: IMDb Is Shutting Down Its Discussion Boards
Same. I’ve seen people tear more boards down since this happens. Instagram, Facebook and Snapchat are the “trends” for kids these days
I go against that stereotype (160 Instagram posts vs. over 12,000 posts on Runboard ).
I’d love to think that they’ll come back into style some day, but people just can’t be bothered to write anymore - rather take a selfie and hit a like button for hours on-end. They’re missing out anyway :P

You look younger than LG and she is young enough to be my daughter!
So in my mind, you are still a young 'un.
