I resigned the Ipetitions.com petition today, mainly to namedrop the url for this board. I'm not holding my breath at this point that IMDB will restore their message boards, but who knows? I was hoping if IMDB had a significant enough dropoff in visitors abandoned them over this issue(not just myself!), that they reconsider. I bet Col. Needham was just essentially in secret carrying out Amazon's orders, to end those message boards. But who knows?
Hopefully the fact I namedropped the url of this board, will cause a few more people to sign up for these boards! I might resign the change.org petition I saw over the IMDB boards later, to similarly namedrop the url for this board.
One last edit: a few minutes ago I checked the members page, and I'm impressed we're now up to 2330 members! Hopefully that number keeps growing more and more. I wouldn't be surprised if the number of members tops off somewhere around 2800-3000 members, give or take. Hopefully it grows beyond 3000, but who knows? I have no doubt this board will very soon, have more than 2500 members!

Um,,,,we are plateauing already, it will be a crawl to 3000 for now, I have noticed some 'New' members hyping other sites (trying to disguise and persuade is a valid strategy). Only somekind of On-line promotion scheme will force the numbers to grow with the expected initial 'curiosity' and IMBD sanctuary seekers already peaking. That is why I mentioned fritzelly's site as an approved 'sister' site to buffer our usefulness and attract new members. This site is functioning really well at present and the topics are good- so I am happy if it just stays that way.

The only thing about TMDB is he may shut down the message boards for fear of repercussions - remember he has a lot of members there that have been members for years. If it starts becoming troll city then ... Hope he doesn't and glad to see he has fixed the back button issue while in discussions where it took you back to the the first page you arrived on

Honestly I'm not even mad, most of them were trolls anyway.
I agree with fritz, I could foresee TMDB shutting down the boards if trolls become an issue. They've got their own (legacy) community to deal with.

This site is functioning really well at present and the topics are good- so I am happy if it just stays that way. Is onemovieavenue.com , fritzelly's movie message board? (per that poster's sig) I hadn't even checked out that board, but I will do so later. Thanks for mentioning it, since I hadn't thought about checking that board out at all. Yeah you're right the more I think about it, it won't get to 3000 right away and that future growth of new users will start to more grow like a crawl. But I think getting to something like 2500-2700 is possible later this year, and that maybe it'll get a little shy of 3000 by sometime this middle or late summer?
