No Posts


So today I went to two different people's boards and found them empty. It surprised me because to me this hardly ever happens.

Does anyone come across many empty message boards?



This might just say something about the people I follow. ;)

It's not only you,Daisy😉

Not all the boards successfully transferred from IMDb to Moviechat. It seems to be mostly message boards about people, but some lesser-known movies and TV shows and such didn't make it either. We'll just have to build them up again.

Of course, there were some on IMDb that never had any posts in the first place either, though.

reply

Yeah I had looked up a silent film star, but I was still shocked. Your explanation let me know what happened.

reply

silent film star may have something to do with it

reply

Lol

reply

I know right? ;)

reply

That's what I thought but then the next person I went to was blank too..

reply

Yes. I have come across this frequently. Those boards may have been overrun by trolls near the end of Imdb and there was no need to save said boards.

reply

A good example : resident evil the final chapter😉

reply

Some also tried on the Supernatural board .

reply

Supernatural,jpollock?...I didn't saw that tv show for a while....how many seasons have,9?...anyway there is a direct correlation between closing the message boards and the comments full of hate made after the release of the final chapter.

reply

They will be starting season 13 in October. How much did you watch?

reply

Su much time had past,jpollock73...until season 4 ,I think...it was broadcast on a local tv network,after that I had other...priorities.

reply

I've been getting that alot. What did you think of the show?

reply

I was a 15 years old kid back then,so I was easily impressed by all the action movies,now i'm not that impressed...anyway,I liked very much Sam Winchester,he had a special gift and many demons hunt him down very often for it...what it was,i'm not sure.I also liked that they improvised in their...demon hunting,they were never prepared for this.

reply

Good point

reply

when I come across a new movie with no posts I always start it up.

reply

I also start a disscusion,hownos...but no one follow it😂😂😂

Well,Dazed...I also have an facebook account ( finally,after all this time ) and I think I found my..."family" there, I think I should thank April for this...she had her part in my decision...also i'm a member of square-enix and gamefaqs forums😉

Daisy, when I see a board without posts, I check hashed.io, which is a site with no activity but they managed to download more boards than Moviechat. Not all of them, but still some more.

reply

Apis,you mentioned hashed.io,I also am a member there,but they old posts dated two years ago and nothing new.

reply

On that site, one can at least read some old posts that weren't transferred here. Especially people boards.

reply

Well,Apis...it doesn't matter if I read the old posts...what really matter,for me as a fan,is to continue those disscusions...no ofence.

reply

Of course, but OP was wondering where can she find old posts on people's boards that weren't transferred here.

reply

I understand that,but still...

reply

ah, sounds cool. i will check that out.

reply

Jim probably set a threshold of minimum number of topics to transfer from a board, or set an "expiration" time frame so that boards with no recent posts would be left empty. That would minimize the amount of needless old clutter that transferred here.

reply

Yeah that would be a good idea actually

reply

It's happened to me a lot. If not empty, just one or two threads with a few responses.

Maybe it's some of the movies I've been watching lately, (newer non-American, or lesser known maybe...?). But I always try to start a thread to get the ball rolling (even if it's not some earth-shattering analysis).
