I know it's strange being away from IMDb, and this probably isn't going to work, but please give this board a chance. Like many others, I saw quite a few things wrong with the old board. Among them, - Deletion of perfectly on-topic threads and posts
- Constant glitches
- Inability to talk about "taboo" subjects
- Trolls
- Censorship
- Replying to the wrong post
- Limited markup
- Inability to embed images
- Awful, old-looking interface
- Off-topic threads mixed in with on-topic threads (which some users didn't like)
However, I really love the users on the IMDb, the camaradie among everyone, and the quality of the discussions. So I ventured out and created a new board where I hope many or at least some of the Horror Board users will come and consider a good place to discuss the greatest genre of all—horror—without all the problems IMDb has.

If we can get the people in here this'll be kick-ass. I was happy to see the dedicated subject boards. No more wading through OT posts complaining about how OT posts are clogging the conversation.

Thanks for joining, man. The only thing I'm missing is the [cheers] smiley. I'd love to hear some ideas for new specific boards. Got any?

Well I posted on the suggestion thread about maybe a classic horror board. Threads about "old" horror always got buried on imdb, it'll set us apart.

Thanks again for the invite, Jim, I hope this place works out too...the level of overpolicing by admins (yet with under-giving-a-rat's-arse what complaints may be about) and a few other niggles are making IMDb a bore lately...so three cheers, and best of luck!
[cheers]
Bugger! You really do miss that smiley...

Hello.
I'm new to the IMDB message boards in general, so I haven't been dealing with the faults of the IMDB horror board as much as you guys have. The board did seem to get real cluttered with random off topic annoying shit though. This board seems cool. I hate not being able to fucking swear on IMDB. Even if you type in fuk over there, it still gets a *beep*. No good. Anyway, I love the horror genre so I look forward to talking with you guys .
Peace.

Hey evolutionbaby, welcome! Make yourself comfortable...put up your feet, sit around in your underwear and scratch yourself inappropriately... And as for avatars, you can use this: imageshack.us/
