KEYSER, OMFG, WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN ALL THESE PAST MONTHS?! Hah. Good old Noctis. Just lost interest in BO plus was busy in my job. My responsibilities increased plus had increased business travel that meant I had less time. I can't believe you lost interest in BO! But you can see how well DH2 did!

Unfortunate to see BOM implode this bad. I think sites like boxoffice.com/the-numbers will benefit from this fiasco. I dont think any site will hit the heydays of BOM when they used to update domestic and OS BO at a regular basis. Plus BOM had data for almost all countries. Things went downhill once Connor Bresnan left and now hit the new low once Brandon has also left. On forums I dont think it would be hard to have BOM kind of popularity as that was tied to the site which helped pull in new members. I would recommend going one of the existing forums instead of creating a new one. My preference is KJ as that has the best BO gurus posting ( Xiayun/Scott/Proud Ryu/Lecter/Mark/Archangel/Corpse etc). Wait! When did Brandon leave MOJO?

Wait! When did Brandon leave MOJO? Roughly a month ago. Wow! I didn't know that. I got this link from IMDB by the way. I knew it wasn't looking good for BOM forums when they directed traffic to IMDB. Thankfully they did because I got the link to this forum. Didn't you make this forum a while ago when MOJO's server went down the first time?

I actually made a temp board in summer 2010 when Mojo was down for a day or two...but wasn't a big fan of its layout. Then Mojo went down again in April this year so I made this site and linked it in the forum. Never intended for it to be anything more than a back-up place to visit, though.

Brandon and Sean-you would of never let this happen. The IMDB is a great site, don't get me wrong, but yeah.

Never know when you'll need a plan B.

Okay, so...minor update: "We're working on it."That's better than no response...and better than "the forums are dead".

Why not just stay here instead of moving to FG? We're all (mostly) already here. Shawn has put a lot of time and effort into getting this place organized so jumping ship already to some irrelevant other forum seems rude and pointless to me. Not to mention the fact that harry baiting people to switch with mod positions and non-stop campaigning is kind of turning me off, but that's besides the point. Totally agreed. Harry quit being a vulture

If this ultimately is the end, I wish they could have waited until after the 10 year anniversary. You just don't see forums staying relevant for that long.

I think we deserve a better update than "We're working on it". Oh well, it is better than nothing I guess...

Maybe they'll actually use this opportunity to overhaul everything. I always wished they'd just do it in a vbulletin form... Eh, whatever, I just want my mojo back, baby!

We're working on it = we're going to be a long time working on this, and it doesn't look too good.
Does anyone else think Ray sometimes just doesn't get BOM and its members? He's nice, but sometimes he seems to have no idea regarding what's going on (the trolls in July, one being Algren).

He's nice, but sometimes he seems to have no idea regarding what's going on (the trolls in July, one being Algren). To be fair to Ray, he has insisted several times that he literally can't comment further. I'm sure his company e-mails are monitored, which leads me to believe that its not his decision at all to keep us in the dark. For that, I'm blaming Amazon/IMDb.
