Dear anyone from the IMDb staff. I'm in desperate need to know about something.
First, the problem: In relation to the removal of the message boards, I've heard many people got angry for the decision and decided to leave the the whole site out of anger. Many IMDb members used the site mainly to read on the messages people had written for every movies they've watched. Several of the former members have already started their memberships on other sites, such as The Movie DB.
Second: While people were quitting their membership, someone on a forum site believed the IMDb might have to shut down the whole website due to losing money and stuff, and there would be "no more IMDb". This is where I'm coming in, in desperate need to know...
Ever since the 2000s, I've been a faithful user of this site. This is the site where I get the most information I can find in most of the movies and series that ever exist in the whole planet. I love this site very much, I use it almost every day to look at new and old titles, and I will stay at this site as a faithful member as long as I can, despite the message boards being gone. I mostly use this site to give star ratings on movies I've watched, read detailed information about any existing movies, and contribute by adding small details on already existing titles and adding new titles. Besides, film, music and video games have been my main interrests since I was a little child.
And I don't want the IMDb to close for good, just because people leave the site and you lose money, otherwise I might go insane like a monkey confined to a tiny cage. :-(
And so I want to ask you a question out of curiosity, but will the IMDb get a new type of forum- or message boards? And what new features are you gonna launch this year? Whatever new features are to be launched, I wish several former users could come back and use this site. The IMDb have done great as the world's biggest movie database on the internet since 1990, and I really hope it continues to stay and grow as many years as possible.
Anyway, any helpful answer will be appreciated.
Sincerely, chribren, your faithful user. <3 :-)
