Wow what happened to all the old posts?

That's true. It's irritating and sad, but of course IMDb can do anything they want with their website. No one forced us to post there..

I wish they had announced this before it happened, and offered a possibility to save / download any posts or packs of posts you want (from a certain movie, for example), or something.

But text doesn't take that much space, and these days there should be enough.

I always wrote with the 'eternal aspect' in mind, thinking that my posts would stay here forever (or at least for 'a very long time'), and thought I could always come back to read any good post as well - but now it's ALL GONE!

All the great points, arguments and explanations - everything that was at least ONCE explained properly, so that everyone can see - ALL GONE!

There was so much good stuff in some of the older posts (and I don't even mean my own posts, but other people's), so now that it's all gone, the newbies will be asking the same friggin' questions again and again, and the answers will be GONE.. and so they will ask them again, and .. nothing will ever progress, because everyone will be too busy repeating the past, typing the same answers to the same basic questions over and over again, aaaargh!

It's a really stupid thing to have happened, but then, this is a really stupid world. So it all fits.
