That is sad.  :(

Maybe it was something like "automatic obsolescence." I presume server capacity isn't unlimited.

Naw,  I've seen older threads on other IMDB boards.

Yeah, but I think at least part of whether a thread gets deleted has to do with activity, not just age.

Older threads do get deleted. However, I had checked the P.T. forum a few months ago and there were a few posts that had recently been posted.  They should still be there. 

Yes, IMDB.com does delete older posts.  I've posted about films other then BBM more then a year ago and they are gone.

Yep, the anniversay of the flight to Bettermost is almost upon us.  Thank god we found "sanctuary" or all would have been lost!! :o Well, I tend to be melodramatic.

I thought you was a newish feller.  Who are you?  Are you really our old gattaca, like your email address implies?

Yep...I just confirmed for myself that the Tremblay board on IMDb has been wiped out. And it does seem suspicious to me; I still have some IMDb message-board posts dating back to 2003 that are still online!

Please feel free to join Clarissa, J.u.d.e., and myself in recreating some semblance of the P.T. board's glory days.

Well there used to be a poster hear with the username Gattaca.  My email address coincidentally has the word gattaca in it.  We are not related.  Hope that clears it up Ellemeno.  ;)

Not so far.  Who were you on IMDb?

I was KD5000 on TOB. 

I was posting about BBM on TOB since 10/05, jumped to P.T. after the trolls savaged BBM after it lost Best Picture.  DavidinHarford can vouch for me! Satisfied.  ;D
