It's got potential,seems to be the closest we will get to IMDB, hundreds of different boards for tv and movies, hopefully it will have better moderation than IMDB did.
Errr I was talking about the Batman vs Superman board cause I'm a DC fan, Plus they also have loads of other DC film boards to. So don't know how you concluded it's a " retarded Marvel-shilled site".
Why bother ? How long do you think it will take until people start behaving like savages on that board too and they decide to kill it too?
You people are not children you know you caused this right ?
I am inclined to quit joining message boards. I do not like the way we behave on these boards
Honestly I think every board should be verified i.e. With a cell phone number or with some form of id - I don't know how , I'm not a tech expert - but I am adamant on this: if you just sign up using an unverified email address you will succumb and act like a savage
I prefer to quit until there s a board in those terms
They didn't shut the boards down because there were trolls... They'd still be up as read only if that was the case. They didn't want to financially support the server space. The troll comment they released was to move the blame so people wouldn't direct their anger towards them. It worked pretty well because I see people everywhere who think message boards are shut down because of trolls. Doesn't even make sense but people buy it.
Because it looks like another homemade site that just happens to be dressed up a bit more nicely and is only now starting to gain any members.
Also, this is the only board of its kind I will ever participate in. I have no desire to seek out another IMDB. If these boards come back in the future, fine--I will post here again--if they don't, it's no love lost with me. I rounded up all the people I care to ever talk to again and made a new home over at a MODERATED site where the toxicity of IMDB isn't tolerated.
Yeah, it's fun to fight with morons here but I have no desire to seek out another environment like this. All the racism, xenophobia, death threats, stalkers, sock accounts and other elements of this IMDB cesspool starts to wear you down after a while.
You'll get bored after a while. You might feel as though you could do with a rest right now but a couple of months down the road I forsee your appetite abating for a steady diet of polite conversation of the Internet.
Sure, I'll miss fighting with idiots to an extent, but I'm not going to join up to some knockoff site in order to accomplish that. I quite like the moderated board that I'm a part of. This toxicity is not difficult to say goodbye to.
