I hate to admit this, but people who love to troll, insult, bash, swear are the ones that let this happen! I'm very sad to hear that it's shutting down, message board is my favorite section on IMDB..
I feel that I'm losing a member of my family, without the message board, IMDB is nothing
Feeling very disappointed, even though I truly confess that the haters annoyed me the whole way through but all of the users, I mean everyone, indirectly taught me how to do better in sarcasm, jokes, antics, banter and I swear to God, you guys made my days cause I laughed so hard that once in a while, my stomach ache (a good thing).
I used to be weak at sarcasm when involving a chat with friends but since I have used this application for 2 years, it keeps getting better and better.
Hate to say this but goodbye users. Hope we can talk again after this.
Farewell, message board of IMDB. :') -

Wtf are you talking about you are saying the reason imdb is shutting down there msg boards is because these muti million dollar studios give a rat ass what people are saying on imdb there are hundreds of other web sites and some if them are major movie critic sites that people actually post intelligent insightful reviews on movies but no lets not try to shut there msg boards down we need to attack imdb's msg boards cause there msg boards can bring this whole thing down not the fact that that 65% of the msgs on the imdb msg board is people just talking trash just for the sake of talking trash not because the movie had bad acting or crappy story no they do it cause it brings some sick sad joy bashing and beep on peoples work cause they have nothing better to do in there sad beep lives. IMDB MSG BOARDS R.I.P (sorry for cussing) Angry cause its a case of some ruins it for all

Person gets bashed by other person. Bashed person gives power to the basher.
Bashed person wants to feel good and have power, he bashes another person to gain "power" over them.
And the disease of the internet continues spreading.. -

I just opened the website and couldn't believe what I was reading. Seriously, they are just shutting it down? WTF?!
I think it probably has to do with the admins having to step in and constantly deal with posts being reported. Giving people warnings, booting users and replying to complaints about the boards probably takes up a lot of time and if the message boards aren't there, then it likely makes their jobs a helluva lot easier.
For us though, it really sucks. It's like when Yahoo took away the chat rooms.
Victims, aren't we all? -

What hits me the the most is that there are actually not that many trolls to begin with, I did not even notice that kind of negative climate! Sure there are people that you dont agree with, but you do not call sombody troll because he likes/hates a movie you dont. And of course there are people who just want attention, but even these are not that many! The most of us just want to talk about movies and shows, about stories and characters, about art and have fun. Its a shame, its a shame we will not be able to do it anymore. Goodbye, doodbye dear friends, I love you all.

You should check when Star Wars 7, Batman Vs Superman, Suicide Squad, Game Of Thrones, La La Land (current), Pretty Little Liars, American Horror Story etc etc etc were trending. -

Guess what : ) Ive been around Star Wars VII and I dont agree with some people there. Ive also seen how hard a time MCU movies (heck, Marvel in general) have when DC fans come. Ive also been aroud La La Land, OUAT, and PIXARs Brave. But this is the internet and you have to learn to live with people who dont mean it well, because I freaking would not have want to miss all the amazing talk I already had

Yeah and all the news stories when I google search IMDB are basically saying it's good they're shutting it down. The narrative has been established and the truth and people's actual preferences do not matter.
So yeah, that's how I feel anyways
