So wait...is that forum essentially a branch off of BOM? I recognized Baumer but no one else.


Also, Eagle, forgive my ignorance on the situation...but how can you keep this site running and why are they having so much more trouble? They seem to have more members etc...do you pay for this site out of your own pocket?

I don't know why they're having so much trouble, yes I do pay for it out of my own pocket, though the cost is nowhere near what they're planning to pay.

Wow, Eagle...I had no idea it came from your own pockets. Regardless, that is really cool of you to keep this place going for so long.

Seriously man. Thanks. I know I just started posting again recently but I have been checking these forums several times a week for 10 years. It is really neat that is is still around.

:thumbsup:

Don't thank me too much, I haven't ever been able to grow the site, it just kind of exists.

It exists and has given us posters a great place to come to for just over ten years! I've enjoyed ALL of it. So yes, thank you.

I ended up proposing that they'd be the forum on Box Office Seer, the forums would remain separate. They don't seem interested, I get the feeling that as long as their members are willing to pay, they'll stay on their own.

I think it's unfair to the users to have to pay when they could just come to Seer and pay nothing, but they've built a pretty big forum over there, so what the heck do I know.


What is Box Office Seer? I do see an ad up on KJ, that talks about a Movie Screen Shot Game.

Too bad my website's German, otherwise we'd be perfectly compatible. I have got a website that grows very well in visitors and flourishes in content, but I cannot get the forums off the ground :-D

Its a site for various movie related games, right now there are two: a screenshot challenge and a game where you predict what a movie will make.

Nothing wrong with that, keep growing that main site!

Eagle is probably the most underappreciated person on the internet. Not shutting WoKJ down a few years ago was something not many people would've done.

Ideally, both grow off each other, IMO. :)

You should have seen some of the private messages, lol. In the end, you don't worry about the few, you worry about the larger community that would be a horrible shame to lose.

What PMs? The PMs to you from current KJ members, not wanting to be merged with the current Box Office Forum.

Huh? No, the PM's from BO forum members, I assume.

KJ members aren't little chickens. We'll gladly tell someone to their face.

No, the PMs with some of BO's members.

At least it does exist unlike the old boxofficemojo forums. This is real. I thank you for keeping it running. I'll make more effort to promote wokj.
