When the IMDb boards shut down, everyone was devastated. But then someone created this website and archived all the old threads. It's almost like the IMDB boards were never shut down. But nobody really uses this website. It seems like nobody ever really did care about the IMDB boards being shut down.
shareI must say, I love how these threads start out about the website being dead, and then take on a life of their own about god-knows-what. Just sayin'
shareOften I find the various directions threads head off to highly entertaining!
shareAbsolutely! Just like in "the real world" you never know where a conversation might lead.
shareYes, exactly :)
I have to say the dynamic trio of Dazed, Mina, and Dewey have provided me with the most laughs when they've gone into derail-the-thread mode.
I hear ya! Glad no one ever minds, because yes some terrific conversations get started like that for sure.
shareThese sort of threads just lend themselves to that Derail-The-Thread mode. [laugh]
shareIt just takes a long time for communities to develop and not everyone on the old forums is aware that this forum exists. Many people probably just went to other film and tv forums. Some might even be so annoyed they refuse to participate.

I remember when IMDB started - it was dead
