Different boards - Bones (2005) Discussion

Yes, please, where is the best place to discuss now?

reply

We are trying to decide between two options: A WordPress blog https://bnb45.wordpress.com/ or an FB group called Bones IMDB group

Do you have a vote as to which one you'd prefer?

Personally, I really, really hate Facebook, but I know many others like and use it.

I have noticed a few IMDB copies have shown up. There are 3 or 4 that look promising. I also read that the people who run The Wayback Machine at Archives.org are working to save all the posts that currently exist here.

Some are moving to Google Groups. Someone you trust from this board could create a board on Runboard.com, Proboards.com, Yuku.com, Google Groups, or on some other community site and share the link here.

If no one does:

This board was suggested to me:

http://broguesholonet.runboard.com/

I'm not a member there yet, but I plan on checking it out.

Here is a forum with threads where boards are advertised:

http://btherunboarddirectory.runboard.com/f8

A Grimm board:

http://bwelcometogrimm.runboard.com/

===================================

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.

===================================

I've seen these links posted on various boards:

Well we've been toying with two options, one an FB page or a WordPress account. The WordPress account we've been using is https://bnb45.wordpress.com/ Trying to keep our core group here together in one place. I think most are leaning towards the WordPress page instead of Facebook as far as I can tell.

Yeah I'm leaning towards Wordpress cuz I don't do Facebook but might be willing to try if that's where most of us end up. I don't want all of us scattered everywhere!

Waaaah! Still in denial this board will be shutting down 

... I don't want all of us scattered everywhere!

There will inevitably be some scattering because people are choosing various options for future discussions. Some will check into some Bones fan forums, blogs, etc., and some will try Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/Bones/), some will use other social media, some will try TMDb (see my other reply), etc.

Whatever everyone decides, be sure to bookmark all the other links being shared in case you decide to move to a different site down the road. Or wish to lurk at the sites where others have moved to.

I have a few forums which have a guesthouse board where guests can post without registering. Bookmark them and feel free to use them to discuss possible new sites to relocate to should IMDb go down before everyone has decided on the one site to move to.

There's http://forums.previously.tv/forum/431-bones/, which was also recommended throughout the various other T.V. show boards here on IMDb.

From what I can tell, it has been around for quite some time, dating all the way back to 2014.

I see there's topics where users can discuss previous airings, but I'm not sure how tough their policy is for anything off-topic.

They certainly don't allow anybody to discuss new episodes until after Bones has aired, but they have a "spoilery" category for that.

Here's the main site if you wanna poke around:

Here's another option:

TheMovieDB.org (TMDb) has reopened its forums for
all shows, movies, and people in its database.

Here's their page for Bones:
  https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/1911-bones
and here's their board for this show:
  https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/1911-bones/discuss
