Hey guys
Whilst the petitions are ongoing, I think we should perhaps consider a new home to discuss movies.
Something similar happened on a sports forum I regularly visited and instead of migrating as one bunch, everyone dispersed to multiple sites resulting in less people to chat to and a poor substitute for the real thing.
Why don't we plan for the eventual and all go to the same site.
Can anyone recommend similar websites where we can all go together to discuss Star Wars?
Cheers -

Why don't you create your own Star Wars website/forum
You can create a free one here:
www.proboards.com
It will allow you to create a fairly well rounded website/forum that will allow you to create categories, boards, & sub-boards
Members on your website/forum will be able to create threads about various topics, and other members will be able to post responses to those threads.
Posts can include pictures, links, text, and I even some other things. I think you can include youtube videos, and even add social media information
Talk about whatever you want there
(As long as it doesn't violate ProBoards terms of service)
Each forum even comes with an actual chat room too
You can allow anyone to join, or choose who to accept.
If someone starts becoming a problem, you can delete their posts or even their account. You also have the capability of banning die hard offenders from re-registering.
It is not a perfect replacement for IMDb, but it should fill the need.
Someone has created a "new" IMDb using the same ProBoards software But it isn't dedicated to Star Wars. You can check it out here to see what you can do with your own website:
"IMDb v2.0"
