Boards.tv

Terry

Excellent idea and a great site.
Thanks to all involved.

Karoma

For a brief moment, I was expecting user-made stuff...


I have mixed feelings on this.

I have a join date of Jan '05 on boards.tv
I'm a member of .us/.jp/.co.nz. Maybe the database is used from one of those.

duplicate account.
ban him now.

I read over there that the accounts from boards.us were copied over to boards.tv. I think moving 90,000 accounts over there would be a bit much.

I can't register.

The image verification is too hard .

smashey

I registered a few minutes ago. It took me a few attempts to get the image verification right. It is quite difficult to make out.


And before anybody starts, I don't need glasses.:p

Terry

took me 6 ****ing attempts.

well, it didn't take too long for this to turn into the usual bitchfest.

to add to it, the dates are U.S. format.

Vexorg

Hopefully the spambots have similar difficulty.

But seriously if its that tricky, its a problem, I will ask cloud about installing something a little more straight forward and also about allowing boards.ie logins to .tv

Let's just get it over with.

I don't know what the admin structure is there yet but...first siteban? Cheeky monkeh.

projectmayhem

is .tv just to discuss tv shows, or will there be productions (videocast stuff) from it?

There is a forum for production and writing

He's still there. I think Cloud needs a few assisstants over yonder.

Wont all us regular TV posters migrate over there and there'll be a decline in the forums here?

Terry

I think that's the plan. Might free up the servers a bit.

PullMyFinger!

Aha I see. Maybe, when Boards.tv gets moving, the database of previous threads in big forums here like Lost can get shifted over there?

User45701

im suprised they didnt do that the day boards.tv opened, its been very slow and inactive since friday

'tis grand now, Shirley.
It took 2 attempts and a bit of luck to get the first username reg'd. This time was a doddle. Thank you.

Terry

So, will all the tv threads be moved over, or is it all virgin territory?

Threads: 39, Posts: 156, Members: 1,481

Pretty impressive for a brand new discussion board!

Terry

most of the members were moved from boards.us.
this stat is good though: Total members that have visited the forum today: 48

Vexorg

The number of users and posts will grow, as there is another TV forum to integrate. How this will be integrated with boards.ie TV shows has not been decided, we need to get boards.ie sorted as a priority and Im pretty sure there is another site launch to happen - possibly during the week.

We can then look at the integration, in the meantime keep using which ever draws you best.
