Off topic: Does anyone even come to this website?


It doesn't seem like anybody comes here like they did with IMDb, I think Movie chat needs to find themselves more exposure if this new site is going to survive. Just my opinion.

Well, I had to search for it one day to find it. I never ran across any kind of serious attempt to promote this site.

I've been coming here since the IMDb boards shut down. Not as quickly as I'd hoped, but this site does seem to be gaining traction. Makes sense it'd take a while, everyone was dispersed and has to regroup, and there were many other sites, all trying poorly to fill the void. Think of it like the back half of Season 4 of The Walking Dead ;)

reply

Well I hope these boards have better success with me than the back half of Season 4 lol. I stopped watching TWD after that season.

reply

It doesn't have any where the same traffic that imdb boards had.But this is the best alternative I could find.

reply

I just don't want this site to disappear because this is pretty much all that's left lol!

reply

•Yes its growing stronger and more populated with each passing week
•And the Admins are adding new useful functions
•Lots of fun and interesting lunatics
•You should stay imo
•Nice to hear from you

reply

I'm definitely staying but I hope it doesn't leave me like IMDB did lol! That whole thing really sucked when they decided to shut down, what were they thinking?

reply

That was really awful and a HUGE bummer!
I think its up to US users to 'stick the landing' here and if we continue to frequent the site...we will make it grow!!

reply

Yeah, I get the impression that IMDb's forum traffic split to at least three or four different places and none of them have picked up the momentum that it had yet.

If you want to support this one it might be worth following/liking their Facebook and Twitter accounts.

...and continuing to post of course, even if you don't get much response.

I wish this site a huge Good Luck in the future. I really like it

reply

Yes me

reply

I'd be interested to see a ranking of the IMDb chat replacements by traffic. I assume this is the largest? They should all do themselves a favor and merge... perhaps also get an official indorsement from IMDb.

Good conversation to have but if you add it under "general topics" I wonder if anyone would see it.

reply

Agreed. On topic though, this site seems to still have steady traffic. I'm glad I found it.

reply

Why get an endorsement from that site?
IMDb shat on all of the posters, screw them.

reply

Exactly

reply

No shit dude, IMDB owns what everyone's input to them for over decade and then they said FU to everyone. Their data base would be shit if it wasn't for THE PEOPLE. IMDB only exists because of people that added to it and then they just said, nope you all suck. IMDB is corporate now, too big too fail. Anyone saying IMDB is good knows not the truth.

Enjoy your day. I'm drunk, if you don't like, I don't mind.
