Well you may have already seen it, you may have been part of it, you may have heard buzz about it, or you may have no idea wtf I'm talking about.
Last week during the infamous troll wars, desperate to save some of our most valued, classic moments on the IMDB boards, a group of people scavenged the boards and saved every thread they could. The mission: to have a safe, simple archive we can go to to save our favorite threads, and read ones we may have missed.
The threads are going to look exactly like the IMDB page, but it is read-only, you can not reply to these threads, they will have to manually updated if the threads still exist on IMDB. That can easily be done by contacting me.
There are a few aspects I'd like to work on, that will take time, like the layout, the categorization of the threads, and adding more threads that we overlooked. If you have any suggestions or notice any errors once you've looked it over, feel free to respond in this thread or PM me. And if you are mentioned anywhere, or have any threads you started, or replies you made and you do not want them on here, let me know, I'll gladly edit it out.
Please, please, please keep the link within this forum. Just as a precaution. We don't want to post links all over and have IMDB shut us down, now do we?! lol But seriously, treat this link like you would an invitation to this board.
Last, but not least, I have to give many thanks to everyone who was involved in saving these threads. First to all of us for making these threads, spilling our guts all over the internet for fellow brokies to see, making heart felt thought provoking posts, hilarious laughter inducing posts, and informative and resourceful posts. Damn, we're smooth.
A very special thanks to: Jenny, Ann Marie, JUDE<3, Lee, Lynn, Kelda, Celeste, Joyce and Courtney. If I left anyone off who contributed, I'll never forgive myself
Or maybe I will, it's late and my eyes hurt and I can't think straight.
Hope you enjoy..
http://www.geocities.com/bbmarchiveUpdate on 4/10/06: If you find threads on IMDB that are NOT on the archive, and think they should be, please do the following:
Go to the thread. Right click. Click "View Source" or "View Page Source". Click edit, select all, copy. Open Notepad or Wordpad (we're going as basic and simple as possible, so please avoid using Word), paste text, save the file with a relevant name (i.e. thread.txt).
If you have multiple threads, please zip them, and attach them to an e-mail. Or just the single txt document. The e-mail is
[email protected]If you feel confident that the thread will not be deleted within 24 hours, just PM me a link to the thread and I'll get to it as soon as I can.
We are working on organizing the threads into more specific categories, and a few threads have been added in the past week.
