I have created a new message board for the imdb refugees
I have set something up at : http://www.imdbmessageboard.com
A little background about me. I am a programmer and run a message board for lawyers as a hobby. You can see it at http://www.jdunderground.com. I wrote the code for that from scratch (about 10 years ago). Since I had the code handy, I customized it a little and created a new forum for imdb people. This is a quick start. We can always change things around (including the name).
For now I have just added two subforums. But I can add more if/when the traffic increases. You will find that the site is minimalist and easy to use. Also easy to post on mobile.
