Just in case your tempted to think leaving IMDb was a hasty decision

<< < (4/5) > >>

Kd5000:
Well I have been posting at IMDB.com for five years.  There volume of posts has exploded over the last year or two.  I mean, at first, it was post and wait two or three days for someone to respond to an inquiry.  I think everyone has now heard of IMDB.com. A librarian told me it's standard practice (USA) to reference ppl to IMDB.com when they have inquiries.

And yes, they don't have enough ppl working there to manage thousands of  msg boards.  Obviously, they were NOT prepared for many, many active forums. 

I got the same response today that other posters have rec'd from IMBD.com. The same wordchoice.. I don't understand, if it's a standard complaint, you'd get a standard response. But if ppl have breached your firewall and are destroying a fourm? How often does that appen.

WHAT????

I love it... the only actual declaration they make in their entire message is that the non-troll messages are OFF TOPIC????  Guys, bring the stragglers over here and do to IMDB what Judge Judy suggests "put a period and move on with your life."  I think it's a hopeless cause over there, and their traffic will suffer because of it.

Phillip, just wanted to thank you SO MUCH for building this safe house for us. Like our own little tree fort. Or given the violence and evil of the forces we fled, more like an underground nuclear war shelter! You have given us all a great gift! 
:-* :-* :-*

Big thanks and mad props also to all the peeps who answered the call and helped our little refugee boat land safely on this tranquil shore. For the midnight oil you burned saving threads, battening down the hatches, and working on this fabulous BetterMost site; for guiding the faithful to safety; for all the blood, sweat and tears; for your dedication to our community - to all of you, I say - THANK YOU!

with much love and grattitude,
ELJ/Keren

P.S. Jenny - sending you a big hug, even if it's 3 weeks since you posted that, I only saw it today, and felt your frustration and wanted to give you a big hug. I like that bracket thing Nicole did, so I'm gonna borrow that, and here it is, girl: {{{jenny}}}

P.P.S. I'm not naming names because I absolutely do not want to leave anyone out, but you all know who you are. You're my heroes.  ;)

Thanks ELJ! I got it! And you might have to hunt for it but I put in a little REM reference for you the other day on a post from last week! Sunday I think--about Becky comin ta town/country!

IMDb seems like a place I haven't been to in a while now....

Yeah, I read that thread.  I can't believe that people are in denial of the troll issue so quickly again.  :-\
