Maybe I'm just a sucker for good web design but I primarily chose this place because of the UI. It's pretty dead compared to IMDb but hopefully it will grow with time. But the super experience so far is far superior to IMDb.
I'm here pop! Good to see my BBT peeps! I can't believe they shut the board down so early - I went on around 11:30, figuring I would stay on until it disappeared. I was so disappointed it was already gone!
Gothish - so glad you're here! I missed the cutoff for imdb and didn't get to say goodbye to everyone!
Glad you're here too! :D Yeah IMDB really stuck it to us, I heard the boards were gone by 8:30 pm Eastern US time. Guess the wanted to add insult to injury!
Me too Goth. I popped in around dinner time, read a couple of posts, and thought "I'll swing by a bit later and bid my farewells", but at 8:30 PM it was gone. I really think IMDB will be stunned at the drop in traffic they are about to see. I actually deleted my account to make a point. Because without the boards, there's no point to having one.
Deleting the account is a good idea, I'm about to do that...no reason to have one anymore!
Another IMDb refugee here. I think that was pretty crappy of them to shut down their message boards rather than make an honest effort to fix them; I haven't given up on them yet, though; I'm holding out hope that they'll realize that this is the biggest mistake in the site's history and restore the boards someday. Until then, though, it's good to see some familiar faces here..
I think the only way they bring them back is in some sort of format where you have to confirm your ID via the credit card, and then they can target you for advertising. No thanks. Everything to Amazon is about sales.

Came from IMDB too. I think it has the potential to grow. And it is so cool that you can import your ratings :)

@IMDb Deleting almost 20 years of internet history—one of the longest running online boards—is unspeakably despicable #BoycottIMDb

I deleted my account after 10 years, it felt very weird. But, they deserve see what will happen to their website by deleting the boards.

I get the refugee feeling. It's been odd. Kinda like an ocean liner going down and everyone's scattered onto different life boats.

They've lost me now, no matter what they do. They could bring them back tomorrow, I won't be signing up again.

I couldn´t do that up until now... Maybe in the next few month ;)
At least my ratings found a new home here :)
