- I just spent a good part of my day posting on IMDb Facebook pages about this site IMDForums. I posted no pics, as I don't know how to do that and also I'm using a Nook, of which the on-screen keyboard has limited functions. I kept the posts very short & simple. Let's hope FB doesn't delete them. My intention was to bring some more refugees to our site...

I did this today, but posted it in the Advertising thread. Maybe you want to move my post here...

I'm one of the newly arrived refugees to this forum, glad to have found you. I was quite dismayed to find out just a few days ago that the IMDb message boards are getting the chop. It was definitely my favourite feature. Glad to see they are being archived. Like many on here I'm sure, I not only posted to them but learned a lot from them...

As an addendum to my post just above: when I saw member @Arch Stanton 's introduction post, I decided to search Google Images for "Arch Stanton". Through that, I was delighted to find a blog website that is dedicated to actor Lee Van Cleef, which is chock full of photos from his movies AND photos taken by the blog's creator during his visit to various Van Cleef movie locations in Spain and elsewhere. Here is one of the entries with photos:

So, the title says it all, no need for explanations or arguments about wether or not this should be allowed. This is just one of many crazy and unheard of board arguments that pushed IMDb and Amazon to shut the boards down.
This is my opinion as a member and this is also the reason why I don't like the boards as much as I used to. I read many discussions about how it's "not that bad", but crap like that is not moderated except foul language, yet it still allows calling names like imbecile and stuff like that.
It makes me sad this is considered normal behaviour on IMDb and anyone that is against this is called a snowflake or thin skinned.

If you have or find any examples like this feel free to share them here and I will add them.
Do NOT start or continue these discussions/arguments here, they will be deleted without notification.
for reading my rant. Carry on, lol.

My biggest complaint was how there was a very vocal - and growing - group who were simply out to hijack every thread they could for political purposes. Even if it was a benign conversation about something unrelated, someone was bound to come in and turn the conversation around just to start controversy, and then feign offense when called out on it, and then call everyone names if they disagreed with them. I hope we can keep the love going here, because so far, this place is great!

Yes, I noticed the same thing. This is just a example of how crazy they can get over a simple question, wich isn't even answered by the ones that are arguing nor does it have any relations to the tv show it's been posted on.
We started this out of love and we are happy to enforce this too. I can promise you that such outrageous arguments or subjects will never happen here, ever.
We encourage the freedom of speech and allow anything to be discussed, but this has to happen in a civil manner and always in respect of each others opinions.

One thing to keep in mind is that just because that thread exists doesn't mean more than 10 or 20 people saw it. It's not like it's the lead story on the nightly news.
Are you saying that if that person started that thread here, you'd delete it? Or that you'd let it stand, but delete the post that called the OP an imbecile?
I watched the Warriors game last night and the OKC fans held up signs calling Kevin Durant 'cupcake', 'Mr. Unreliable', 'Koward', etc. These are hurtful things, but acceptable because no one called him 'imbecile' or 'fuckface'?
It's all sports, man. If you start a thread on a TV show board that says 'It's cool to boink your sister', you better have your gloves on. Don't expect a bunch of scientists to respond politely with DNA evidence.
[Edit] I just remembered you're Dutch (I think). The OKC/Durant thing may be unknown to you.

Welcome to the Internet Media Discussion Forums. :)
By the way, you look mighty healthy for someone who has been dead for 155 years, 1 week and 3 days. o_O
