Can we post photos on MoveiChat?


If so how?

reply

Still haven't improved on that yet.

reply

what happened to you?

reply

I've been wondering that myself. Although he could be controversial at times, he definitely wasn't a troll. I'm thinking that he was probably a sock of a troll account maybe and when that IP address got blocked, that probably blocked this account as well. Either that or something happened to him. He definitely didn't do the same things that a lot of the trolls on here do. So I just don't see him being banned just from the things that he said. But he did seem to disappear around the same time as some troll accounts did.

reply

he claimed to be an ex-filmboards administrator who was going to take over here. so much for that.

reply

HE WAS PLATONIC CAVEMAN ON THERE...I DID NOT LIKE HIM THERE AND I TOLERATED HIM HERE.

reply

i knew he wouldn't last

reply

Kowalski, I'm watching you. 🀣

Who are you on filmboards? C'mon, fess up.

reply

SOMETHING VHS...I HONESTLY DO NOT REMEMBER...I DO NOT POST THERE ANYMORE...OR ANYHERE ELSE...EXCEPT FOR A TINY BIT OF FACEBOOK GROUP PARTICIPATION...THIS IS THE ONLY SITE I USE.

reply

Dude, I know you. Yeah, you were part of the original clique which dominated filmboards when I became Admin. You were obsessed with Bongo. Haha.

Compared to some of the other GoT/TWD trolls, you were one of the better ones.

reply

Was this him? https://moviechat.org/user/58ab657680b1db00118b037f/

reply

i think so.

reply

Just by doing a quick Google search I notice he speaks highly of this place compared to that forum he used to moderate. πŸ˜‚

reply

i hope he returns. i have no issue with him.

reply

Me either. He has a good taste in music.

reply

Same here. Some posters are just nomadic this way, here for a bit and then on to the next site.

Too bad in many cases.

reply

Thanks Hownos.

reply

No, that wasn't me. I was GameBoy on IMDb. That looks like Ben the Pakistani using my name. He did that a lot.

reply

Ahh thanks, I read a few of his posts and it didn't seem like you. People pretending to be others sucks, it's happened to me too. For some weird reason someone used my notoriousrio username on other forums just to advertise about MovieChat, harmless enough so I don’t care.

I noticed it happened a few years ago when I found it on a music forum I was trying to register at, I’ve also found it on sites I’ve never registered at or even heard of before, and I wouldn’t care enough to advertise about this place anyway! πŸ˜‚

reply

Yeah, I'm sure my name is being used on forums I don't even know.

I'm not sure if you know Ben, but he was a major troll who would stay up for days spamming IMDb's Soapbox. I hated him at first, but I got to know him on filmboards a little better, and he wasn't such a bad guy. He did create a lot of havoc though.

reply

Nope I didn’t know him, on IMDb I only ever posted on movie related boards, mostly Star Wars and Batman films if I remember, I never even looked at all the off-topic boards back then.

reply

Ben trolled the fuck outta this site when we first opened. It was astonishing how he seemed to literally go at it 24hrs a day with no rest.

reply

this guy

reply

Yeah, along with his literally dozens upon dozens of iterations.

reply

arvin g borkar may have been one.

reply

That makes sense. Ben was on all the IMDb spinoffs at one point. v2 is the only one which made a strong and successful effort to keep him out.

Yeah, the 24 hour nonstop trolling which would go on for days. That's his hallmark. He has to be on meth or some type of speed.

reply

Why is posting photos here necessary?

reply

As far as I'm concerned, posting a link to an image is fine. Otherwise, actual photos add too much clutter and take up a lot of space in the thread.

reply

We don't need photos and, like you said, links are sufficient. Otherwise MovieChat will turn into another site for the narcissists to brag and post pictures of their purchases, their vacations, or what they had for lunch. There are plenty of other sites for this type of nonsense.

I HAVE BEEN BRAGGING ON MY PURCHASES ALL ALONG.ANDYKING NEVER SHUTS UP ABOUT HIS SENSUAL TRAVELS...BUT YOU'RE RIGHT...PHOTOS ARE NOT NEEDED.

reply

All that exact stuff happens here, all the time. Only difference is that the images aren't embedded, they are linked to instead. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

reply

links are fine. another site i am on got rid of the pics because it was making the threads too long.

reply

Or costing the web host too much money.

ETA: I bet ya you can still see ad images on there though huh? Like here. No imbedded images unless they're from ads.

The absolute best image hosting site I've come across. πŸ‘πŸ‘

The best YOU came across
getsharex.com.
Now that is the best ;)

reply

The best YOU came across

Yeah. Hence why I said "The absolute best image hosting site I've come across. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

reply

I love how it says "free image hosting" and then lists the pricing directly underneath.

reply

It is free for basic pic posting. If you want additional features then they charge for it.

reply

It is absolutely free. I've used it dozens of times and not paid one single cent. But, like pretty much everything else online, you have to pay if you want to use the premium services offered. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ€·β€β™€οΈ
