I just registered with IMDB2
I will be going under the user name silvercorvette
here is the link, I hope everyone moves to the new IMDB
http://imdb2.freeforums.net
It's new and it will take time to include all your favorite shows just give it time to grow
The most important thing is sincerity. If you can fake that you've got it made.

Looks very close to IMDB's board formatting before the last big upgrade.

I saw that site the other day Cobram, when someone posted it at the Little House boards, but for some reason was under the impression that it was exclusive to game of thrones. I just checked it out again though, and it looks like it might be a pretty good site, and you can request a board for a specific show if it doesn't already exist. I think I'll sign up at this one as well.
One thing that does concern me about the IMDB 2.0 board, is that it is on Proboards, and I've been a member of Proboards forums before, and have seen them get shut down without notice, because someone posted something inappropriate.
The "GotBoard" is almost a carbon copy of "IMDB v2.0" forum. Besides the different appearance, it has nearly the exact same sub-forums in the same order.
I am now registered on both sites under the same name. Turns out that they're both hosted by Proboards, which is a freeware site, which of course is understandable. My only concern is that Proboards is prone to censorship, and it's fairly easy to get shutdown without notice.

Looks like a much better option. Formatting and design are very close to this board. Much less of a general board than the other options.
Looks like the movies and shows are there, already sorted and all. I'm going to give this a try, I'm passing on the others unless they get more organized and figure out exactly what they are.

They seem quite ready to censor discussions like the ones found in here.
shareHaven't actually used it yet. Just perused some of the boards on it. Didn't really notice anything. But if you're right, that's not good.

That was the impression I had from some of the regulars. One goes so far as to say: 1. A whole new set of mods. We already have more than enough on our plate.
2. Super strict rules and moderation. Basically, we only allow instructive
and constructive discussions. No gossips, no games, no commenting on
people's physical appearance/relationships/sexual orientation/acting
ability and no personal opinions (that's what reviews are for). Plus,
things like a minimum & maximum characters limit and a well-thought
spoiler policy.That doesn't sound like that person would be too thrilled with some of the discussions we've had in here about this show. Here's the thread:
https://www.themoviedb.org/talk/5894e6e0c3a368089b000e1e
Grant it, I haven't read the entire thread, so maybe that opinion is not shared by the site owner and/or the majority of users.

It's not getting alot of traffic yet as people are still using IMDb, but it has no censorship and you can embed vids and pics. It's either that or let your board die.
Maybe give it a try. Worse case scenario, if it is not a comfortable place to share ideas, it can serve as a place to muster, so we don't lose any straglers.
The way the board is setup, people from this board, no matter which films or TV shows they discuss, will be able to find that area very easily.
These other boards are much harder to navigate, and most people won't even bother IMHO.

I'll check it out Cobram, and have already book marked it, but from the way that it sounds, I probably won't be posting there very often. But I agree, it sounds like a good possibility as a place to at least meet up initially. The two above mentioned Proboards sites look good, but from past experience, I know that it's possible to get shut down by the hosting service for saying the wrong things.
Also, for those interested in the television survival shows such as Survivorman, Dual Survival, etc, and don't mind Facebook, member rickathedj set up a facebook page for these shows.

I tried navigating the proboards, they're a cluster fudge compared to https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/61789-alaskan-bush-people/discuss/589b5962c3a3680c63000431
Facebook is an option, but many people don't like it, or won't use it. It doesn't really lend itself to this type of back and forth, IMHO anyway. It is a good option for people to find the topic, no doubt there. themoviedb is the same, people will find it.
Whatever way it goes, the only thing I don't want to miss is realityobserver's commentary on the episodes, it's the main reason I even bother to scan the show and follow this board.

I signed up for Previously.tv and reddit. The reason I didn't go with IMDB2 or Got is because there are hardly any posts over there. I know they're new supposedly, but still, I want some traffic.
I heard that Amazon is making IMDB take down their boards. If that is true, it's a big disappointment to me, since I am a long time customer and supporter of Amazon.
