Now that the Discovery board has changed


Has anyone from the other site come here to post?

Changed? Looks like it disappeared completely.

They closed it down and now require you sign in using Facebook, but you do not have the ability to chat they way it used to be.

I am not sure how it works because I have no desire to use Facebook.

I don't see any form of message boards on the discovery website anymore.

Are you talking about the facebook comment thing on the videos they post? That's crap and not forums.

Without forums I find myself not wanting to watch the show anymore, the only people I knew who watched the show were through the discovery forums.

I am not sure what replaced the old Discovery forum, my guess is Discovery did it to save money. They made a big announcement it was closing November 7 and you had to log in to whatever replaced it using Facebook, a lot of people complained but it is over with.

From what I see, they created facebook pages for every show. And you post messages on the show's wall. Not at all a forum format. I'm not a fan of it. I've also noticed that they tend to delete any posts that say anything negative. The comments all seem to be people saying they love the show, blah...blah...blah...

Going that route saves the Discovery Channel money by using less bandwidth on their website.

I didn't post there often,but there were a lot of people that probably had thousands of posts that are not active anymore they mentioned that they made posts before the old forum closed down indicating they were leaving because they do not like the facebook format. I suggested that this place was a good alternative whit less censorship.
