If you are serious about the IMDB boards and would consider putting in time and real money to create a successor to the IMDB boards, write in this thread or PM me!!!
If the shutdown ends up NOT being a publicity stunt or a rash drunken decision being reversed at the last minute, I will strongly consider building a real website that will succeed the IMDB boards.
It will not just be hosted on ProBoards or FreeForums. It will have a real domain like FlixBoard.com or MovieBoards.com or something.
Reading posts will be free. However, Posting Priviliges will be behind a (very affordable) paywall like 1-2 EURO per month to reduce the number of trolls. Or it could have a one-time registration fee like the SomethingAwful forums have.
a PayPal donation option would be a great addition as well for the users who are extra passionate and supporting of the boards.
More details will be shared via PM to sincere users.
