Tbh I'm beginning to feel that I don't want the IMDb message boards back and would rather this place blossom instead. I want to give IMDb/Amazon my middle finger, and my heart and soul to Jim and this refugee camp. Jim's the one who gives a damn, and it's Jim that is the one who is therefore of any value and worth in my eyes. I'm not someone that takes kindly to financial greed and abandonment.
Would definitely use!
Now I'm intrigued. I want the gossip. Now. Show me the breakdowns :) (I'm already laughing)
I can't tell you how glad I am that I was at work during said glitch. Sorry you had to go through that my friend. Life can really test you sometimes...
I guess that's a good thing then! Thanks for clarifying ^^ Is it an American expression? I wonder.
Thanks for pulling through with the rest of us :) Think I'll sleep with a lighter heart tonight. Sh*t it's already 5am?! FML.
Trolls are already a trigger to those who are sensitive. Would you then really want to add karma points into the mix too? We'd all be bathing in an ocean of emo tears in here ffs.
Thanks for elaborating btw :)
Yup, it's licking honey from a razor's edge. I would expect that the original IMDb posters would have thicker skin with regards to trolls and therefore not be put off, good point. Personally trolls never bothered me as I have a good ignore filter in my consciousness. There's a lot of bull*** in the world and our brains have limited capacity to process large amounts of information, so I choose to filter out the crap and channel in on the good things.
I think some people who get bothered by trolls are just being cognitively lazy. Or are easily teased due to naivety and immaturity, who knows.
Actually, why do people even get bothered by trolls? I'm curious.
I have the same writing personality you have, and I'm censoring myself heavily in this site. I grew up in the gaming world where swearing becomes a language on its own. But I'm slapping myself on the wrist and behaving like a good little girl, as much as you are ^^
That's exactly what I've been trying to explain to the registered users of other IMDb alter-ego sites with the intention to bring them in here. I wish people had a stronger troll filter and better focus on the good stuff.
I agree. It's attached to too much horrendous history and pain, past and present. There are thousands of swear words that could have been utilised and the n one didn't have to be one of them. I hope he made a genuine mistake and didn't mean anything by it. That word is used so often in modern culture, music and films that it makes youngsters desensitised to it thinking there aren't negative repercussions with its use.
Thank you, likewise Dreamer! I think I might actually be fitting in a little.
Jim is basically a God sent from the heavens to rescue us IMDb refugees into a safe asylum. Without him I'd be roaming the dark and empty data-space without a home. He's a cyber Godfather to us all. Hail Lord Jim ^^
I have no idea what that means. Is it a good thing that I know 'what's up'? It appears that I'm lost in translation. Someone help me out here...
Hi jmcd, it's great you came! This place is where I find solace after the IMDb message boards vanished. I'm posting more in here than I ever did on IMDb because I'm trying to help this place flourish into an active community like IMDb once was.
Bring your friends. I hope you have friends...
Maybe the transition of posts from IMDb to this site is still taking effect and gradually more and more posts will appear with time. There's got to be millions, so I'm only guessing in saying that the data is still transferring. Or I could just be talking out of my ass.
Could you enlighten me as to what karma points are? How do they work? The only time I ever used reddit was yesterday when trying to promote this place, heh.
"Every site is talking about bringing in more members and talking about why theirs is better than the other. And every site is working hard to make their website the best. It's a lot of heart and passion everyone is investing.
For me, the conclusion therefore is that all the sites are at the same place (Square One) and people can choose their favorites, multiple or all."
This ^
It's quite amusing when you think about it. Somewhat endearing but at the same time frustrating when all I want to do is drag everyone into one place - specifically here.
I can only guess and wish that the majority find their way here because in all honestly, this place resembles the IMDb message boards the most, and it continues to be geared and designed towards discussion in a very effective manner. Those who mourn IMDb should find solace in here because it's pretty much its doppelganger.
I agree. But I honestly wasn't planning to. I only asked this question to colourfully emphasise the gratitude I have for this board. But swearing is the lesser of two evils where trolls are concerned, so I'm not going to complain if people did swear.
Thanks to Jim, I get to check those very posts :)
Little and gradual improvements like that is such a big tease ¬¬
