Tremblayans! Let's revive the Old Board for our anniversary

(1/5) > >>

Meryl:
One year ago on March 30, the Great Exodus from IMDb to BetterMost began. 

We all started out on the Brokeback Mountain board at IMDb.  Then, tired of the incessant efforts of trolls to disrupt our conversations, we sought refuge on the Pierre Tremblay message board.  Brokeback's First Assistant Director unknowingly became our patron saint, and for a blessed time we enjoyed peace and harmony.  But alas, the trolls eventually tracked us down and became more virulent than ever, deleting threads wholesale out of sheer spite.  The search for a new home began in earnest.

It was YaadPyar (Celeste) who finally led the way to BetterMost, and on March 30, the bulk of Tremblayans made their way here, where we found we'd been given our own Forum by Phillip where we could gather to bind up our wounds and start fresh.  One year later, we're still here, glad to be a part of the most forward-looking of all the BBM websites, a real hometown.

Fernly recently reported that the old board (TOB) over at IMDb was wiped clean of all the remaining threads.  Let's celebrate our anniversary by returning there to post some good things and remember our roots, okay?  And if you first joined the Tremblayan community here at BetterMost, we want to hear from you, too.

Yours in Tremblayan Friendship,

Meryl and DavidnHartford

Nice idea, maybe someone could contact some of those old posters who have moved on, to come back for this one time anniversary event.  As I understrand it so many people who were instrumental in the founding of this group have either left or post infrequently these days.  :-\  I know it's important to look forward and not back but at anniversary time it is nice to put aside personalities and remember old friends no longer present.

Meryl:
That's a terrific idea, dot!  I'll PM some of the posters who are still around and don't post much, here and at IMDb, and let them know, and I hope others will, too.  It would be a nice reunion, and we won't have had to wait four f**kin' years!  ;D

I was never technically on PT back on IMDb, only the big board.  But, would it be OK if I still helped out with the "revive PT" project?  I think this is a really neat idea!
