Well, it's done. So, do we just accept this and move on? Or do we rally against this thing that happened.

I think just move on.
There are plenty enough folks here to have a chat with.

No, this decision wouldn't have been made lightly. After all the years, thousands of users, hundreds of thousands of posts it's not something that was done rashly.
It's gone and nothing anyone does will bring it back unless they themselves decide to.
All we can do now is try to make sure this takes off as best we can.

I hope this board is able to find a way to consistently expand beyond just its current base, a healthy collection though it appears.

i wait for their web traffic to dive on Alexa and see if we are the vocal minority, Amazon killed boards at boxoffice mojo a long time ago and they never came back, and killed them with zero warning, screw them

People tried pretty much every single method of petition they could to save the boards. It's painfully clear IMDB feels it just didn't need us anymore.

I'm not really sure what could be done? I doubt IMDB would go back on what they've said, they might come to regret it. However, they've permanently deleted everything so we wouldn't be able to get any of the old thread or info back. I think we move on, I quite like it here.

I thought so too (that they've permanently deleted everything), but I kept re-reading their statement.....they specifically said that they are "disabling" the boards....not "deleting" them. Very big difference. What it says to me is that all of the information is still on their database, just that it is inaccessible...to the outside world. I'm not implying that there is any hope for the future, but I am saying that they have not....yet....utterly destroyed everything. It may be a "wait and see" attitude, or they are building a new version and will "melt" they old into the new....who knows.

Disabling the functionality of the boards implies that the content is also therefore deleted, since there would be no use for the data without a functioning board system. They're not going to keep the data for the fun of it.
