IMDb Is Shutting Down Its Discussion Boards

shutting down

Way to go, dick heads. You already allow rigged, paid for ‘positive’ movie reviews, now you want to take away the one thing most people go to the site for. Seriously bad business move and they are liable to f~~~ themselves in the ass on this one.

Just another way to censor people. Soon they will disallow any ‘hated it’ movie reviews.

Get used to it, we will get lots of it.

If they are shutting down their discussion boards, they might as well shut down their business because those discussion boards are an important part in how their business functions.

Blaming the trolls. I like trolls sometimes. They can say some real funny s~~~. Years ago I trolled the s~~~ out of a “Wedding Forum”. God that was fun.

[Dashing Young DissidentSpectator]

They want more traffic flow to their s~~~ty Facebook page. They have already gotten a huge backlash from their users. Stupid c~~~s.

Ah well. Another cool thing goes down the toilet. I’ve been a member since 2005.

F~~~ing such pussies they are. Shut it down, and a business opportunity will arise for others.

How misogynistic! More fun than a barrel of monkeys of that I am sure.

Oh yeah sure, open discussions are FINE!!!

… until the open discussion is:

• Ghostbusters 2016 sucked ass
• Boycott SONY’s “No men beyond this point”.
• STARWARS EPVII – The Feminist Farce Awakens

etc.

“Hollywood” as we know it is OVER. Even “the Hive” and Vanity Fair knows it.

You can thank people like Meryl Streep for that, the Hollywood s~~~libs who tore down an American Flag, and the sign on Hollywood Boulevard – with two shirtless gay men on it – that says “Dear Mr. President – Make America Gay again”.

If Mr. President actually listened to that Hollywood nonsense, in a couple of generations, there would be no America left. And then “America” would be as over as Hollywood.

Discuss that, IMDB. Or is that why you’re shutting it down? Because the conversation is decidedly inconvenient to your vagenda. Boo hoo.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

What next? Disabling Youtube comments? George Orwell’s 1984 has started.

Great point. It prob did stem from that one bulls~~~ movie. The snowflakes, manginas and feminazis all complain and voila, the sites comments section ‘isn’t useful’ for the majority of its users.

There’s more to it than this. I smell tuna at the controls.

[Dashing Young DissidentSpectator]

I reckon its a predominantly MALE user base, and since Trump won, some tuna c~~~ at the helm is closing the message board down in pure resentment and sore loser-ness.

Well f~~~ you too.

Saying a movie is s~~~ when the movie is actually s~~~ is not trolling. It is telling the truth.

Complaining is what they do best. I give no f~~~s if anyone complains. I either fix it or ignore it as appropriate.

[Anonymous 42]

Ya think they heard me when I said HEY HOLLYWOOD, F~~~ YOU!?

Hollywood and feminism are going hand in hand to the grave, we’re just witnessing the last gasps of life…

The amount of times I’ve been called a troll or hater because I said a movie was absolute dog s~~~ (and it was). They give no counter argument, nothing, its just straight to the character defamation.

This is part and parcel of IMDB message boards. Do you hear me bitching and demadning it be shut down?

Quite true sir. To me, the fun of trolling is to say something so ridiculous that anybody with half-a-brain immediately figures it out, but then there’s the dumbasses that take it seriously and get all upset and p~~~ed off. For example, I would ask something like, “In which states can you still marry a 14 yr old girl”. Oh man! Those bitches would go ape s~~~ over that, maybe a couple of pages. LOL

They’re taking it down because there were too many people acting like assholes. Well at least I won’t be hearing about how raciest all my movies are, because just about every movie had a race topic.

Then they might as well take down F~~book, Youtube and Twitter etc while they’re at it. It’s censorship and neo-Nazi policing pure and simple.

Everything is being bastardised by PC f~~~~~ry today. Another nail in the coffin for free speech.

There has been a discussion going on for years about the movie They Live. Many, including myself, believe Carpenter was pointing to Jews, not Republicans with his narrative in this movie. And guess what? Even though the discussions were mostly rational, they kept getting removed. I am not surprised in the LEAST BIT that discussions are going to be removed, not one bit.

IMDB also reset the message boards a few times over the years, so old posts were not there anymore. Now they are removing them indefinitely.

They claim to know what is in the best interests of its 250 million users? Bulls~~~. What about the paying pro members?

Again, big brother dictating what is best for you.
