IMdb is SHUTTING down forums, WHERE can I get my ChamCham fix?

ChamCham, you're my favorite user on here, where can Chamheads get their fix once this place shuts down :(

I am not surprised, they shut down the feature. A lot of attacks happen.
Just recently, I saw a forum entry on one of my acting friend's page with the headline "He deserves to die", because somebody was upset that he killed one of the main characters' family members in a popular hit series.

It kind of shocked me, and knowing the actor myself and what a soft soul he is for real, I felt, it must sadden and shock him if he noticed, if not leaving him live in terror. I saw that the thread had been removed just recently. Terrible if people cannot differentiate between what is fiction and what is real.

Aw, that's sweet. But "Chamheads", really?

Tess has some ideas. I'll leave it up to her and let you know before the ax falls. I'm still gob smacked.

I'm sure we are all gob smacked. It was like a punch in the gut.

This board is an interesting and fun diversion from the daily routine, and has become an addiction.
The phrase "cold turkey" may soon become my new reality.
If so, I will require a straight jacket or a padded room.....

I have read some suggestions on other boards but don't think I would like them.
Will keep looking for other options before I throw in the towel.

Hey ChamCham, long time reader first time poster here. I always check the Brendan Fraser board every couple weeks just to look at your posts. It really brightens my day to see someone who's as big of a Brendan Fraser fan as I am (I have The Mummy and George of the Jungle on VHS), and it pains me to see this community shut down JUST as much as it pained me to see Brendan's career go downhill (I was hoping for him to come back into stardom after Journey to the Center of the Earth, but as my dad used to say, "what you want is for your birthday and Christmas"). Anyway, do you have any other preferred name for your adoring fans if you don't like "Chamheads"? I was thinking of "ChamChampions" myself, but that's also a bit cheesy I guess.

Cham-pions is pretty cool, I must say. 

ChamCham, have you decided where fans can keep up with you? Each day that passes I get more nervous that this Brendan Fraser community will not relocate which would be a travesty.

Hey there !

I Googled the Scrabble site for words containing "cham".


Champion:

1) Someone who has won first prize.
2) Someone who fights for a cause.
3) A person who backs a politician or a team,etc.
4) Someone who is dazzlingly skilled in any field.
5) To protect or fight for another as a champion.

So, which one are you thinking fits the situation ?



My Tess suggested these :

Champignons : Any of various agaricaceous mushrooms.

Bechamel : A sauce thickened with a butter and flour roux.

( She's a cook, not a rocket scientist. (I'm kidding ! I'm kidding !)

I also found Chamaephytes - no definition but a cool Scrabble word.
And Chamaedorea which is apparently, a house plant.


We're working on the new digs. We'll let you know in a few days where to find us. 🐕
