Did any of you ever expect/predict something like this?

Can't say I have. I did think the boards would be altered for the worse some day but it never occurred to me that they would just completely shut them down.

I never thought Trump would win either. Things happen.

*beep* happens

Re: Did any of you ever expect/predict something like this?

Yes, I rubbed my crystal balls and saw this coming.

No but sadly it happened.

Re: Did any of you ever expect/predict something like this?

I did, unfortunately. It's one of the reasons I stopped posting last year. It just wasn't worth it anymore.

It's supposed to be automatic, but actually you have to push this button.

Socks, influx of altogether trollish behavior, more call out threads and fight-starters than actual discussion of film, racists, and of course political keyboard warriors and their republiragean end to it all was inevitable.

Damn shame too.

Not for nothin. I hope they do the same thing to people that comment on YouTube.

This.

Along with the $ required to maintain the boards for that kinda rubbish I guess it was just a matter of time.

Re: Did any of you ever expect/predict something like this?

I've heard people mention it, for the same reason they are actually doing it now.

It just isn't a revenue raiser for them.

Re: Did any of you ever expect/predict something like this?

I predict IMDb may have to go back on this decision either before or after they shut down the boards.

Re: Did any of you ever expect/predict something like this?

Yes, I've seen a few posts on here and other places saying it was rumored it would happen sometime in next year. It was just sooner than I expected.

Re: Did any of you ever expect/predict something like this?

Of course not. These forums are a worldwide cultural phenomenon!

The owner of a site such as this is supposed to be grateful and honored to host such a massive gathering of disparate peoples. If sanity prevailed these boards would be nurtured and treasured, not killed!


Quit exhaling! You are contributing to global warming.

Re: Did any of you ever expect/predict something like this?

Honestly, no. I never even expected the IMDb boards to shut-down during my lifetime honestly. Rather startling.

I expected a limit or a cost to post
