They don't give a flying one in a snowstorm. I'm not quite sure what that means as I might have mixed my metaphors there.
But yeah. They're just a soulless corporation.
Sadly, I don't think it's going to harm traffic to the strictly information part of the site. I would love it if it did but I hate to say they will probably be fine without the message boards.

They don't care, basically. I hope this site goes down.
Well, no. I don't hope - that's harsh. But if it went down, I wouldn't shed a tear.

Have you seen some of the parodies people have made of the "Important Notice" announcement up there ^ ?
They are laugh-out-loud stuff for certain; we need to collect those into one place!

It has been that kind of a day . your note made me laugh the proverbial "out loud".
"buh bye now"

Yeah I loved the "have a great day" bit!
Hope you have a great day, now please fck off and let us get on with the business of making billions of dollars, buh bye now!

We appreciate that you took the time to share your concerns with us.
Please eat st and die.
I hope you have a great day.

There is no noun that cannot be verbed.

Yep, it does. Probably get the same thing from IMDb/Col Needham "wasn't our decision, write to Amazon!" Lol.
Still, typical, what did I expect.

Agreed. Still a seeming deflection of blame to cover their butts, possibly?
Normal Is A Myth.

Well it passes the buck back to IMDb like it's their decision to close the boards, not Amazon's.
I don't think it's automated, since they addressed a type of disassociation with IMDb that would have to be written by someone.
But it doesn't concern me that much whether it's automated or not; the idea is the same, they're not taking responsibility.
If they were, the automated response would have been something like "Thank you for your concerns, however we have taken this decision after careful consideration " blah blah.
Just sayin'.

Reads like an automated message that serves as passing the buck to nowhere.
