Why arent we allowed profile pictures


Also, why can't we like posts or create polls?

reply

I remember this being talked about 7 years ago, I guess profile pics sucks up too much bandwidth. you can always try filmboards.com. but that site has way more trolls than here.

reply

What about liking posts?

reply

I am not sure to be honest. this site has been exactly the same since its incarnation.

reply

Pros and cons to both.

If this place allowed pics, gifs, likes etc then it would be better than fb with no doubt.

I have made fb way more tolerable by using the block feature.

reply

🤣

honestly, I dont think its possible to make any chat board better than IMDb. this site and others like it are just for people who are retired, unemployed or homebound.

I havent been on FB since 2012. I am still surprised that people use it.

reply

What I miss about IMDb was chatting about movies which hardly anyone wants to do anymore on these knockoffs.

Though I will admit that more will talk about movies/TV here then FB.
Which is odd since they call themselves FILMboards.

reply

I miss talking about movies too and actually having a conversation and not getting mocked or trolled.

no one really talks about movies on either site. as you prob are aware most of the soapbox trolls, politics people and GOT turds went to filmboards after their sites were shut down.

movie chat has lost a lot of good people due to rampant trolling and poor moderation over the years. now its just the worst of the worst.

maybe someday IMDb will come back...🤞

Why?

We all know Kowalski is gorgeous.

Hot and that's not even his best pic!

As I say on all the posts asking these questions, I prefer the site like this. Images can really make the place seem cluttered. Especially when they can be included in the body of the post. Likes don't really encourage discussion. If you like something, write why you agree/find funny/or whatever.

Polls could be nice, but we have found a way to poll here by just asking. At least when one responds with text, one can say why they feel the way they do.

The simplicity here is one of the reasons why I've stuck around.

reply

You can have a profile picture.

reply

Because this place is still stuck in the stone age which is really lame.

YOU ARE WELCOME TO LEAVE ANYTIME,KIDDO.

Why would someone drink in a pub when they hate the staff, hate the decor, hate the regulars and hate the beer?

reply

I've asked them before why they are here, yet they haven't answered.

reply

FLIM SHAW!

THOSE THINGS DO NOT INSPIRE BETTER CONVERSATION...THEY DISTRACT FROM IT.

reply

Accept my friend request dude. I'm starting to get a little upset.

reply


You should talk. I sent you three and zip.

reply
