Just to let you guys know the Childhood Sweethearts Jack & Emily thread will be moved to the couples board on the 9th August. So we can carry on our discussion there. I'm sure we can also create a Revenge episode thread on the television board when the show returns as well and of course don't forget to look on the spoilers board as well especially as the the show's return nears I'm sure we will have lots to discuss!

I hate to see the board go, but I've been so busy here lately with work that I've barely been on here

I am sure you are, buddy. So sorry to see this board close. I know how much you love the show.

Guys, I wanted to let you know...

As a moderator over on the Everwood board, obviously Emily VanCamp is a huge part of the board as both Amy Abbott on Everwood and Emily/Amanda on Revenge.

Well, on the Emily thread on the Everwood board, we have deep intellectual discussions about Revenge. We talked about it over there and wanted to extend an invite to all of you to join us and talk Revenge on Emily's thread.

If you scan the thread, you will see it's very Revenge heavy. As you can see based on the title of the thread, alone, it's Revenge centric:

http://www.fanforum.com/f104/emily-v...dust-63123342/

Please come on over and join us. You are more than welcome!

Okay, there is already a Jack/Emily thread at the Couples board. In fact here it is. I hope that everyone will go post there and at the Nolan/Emily thread at the Couples board.

That is so cool -- thank you! I had no idea that there was also Revenge discussion on that board.

Is it possible to close that thread and move our current one over there to replace it? Our current thread contains a lot of recent talk about the end of S3 and what's to come in S4.

I also wanted to say that you don't need to apologize for the board not being as active. I wasn't around for several weeks because I was traveling, and I think it's been the same for a lot of people.

I also think it's hard to keep discussion going because the ratings aren't as good as they were in previous seasons. If fewer people are watching the show, that means fewer of them get online to discuss it on boards like this one.

Who knows...maybe if Revenge experiences a creative resurgence and starts doing incredibly well in the ratings, it'll become more popular on FF, enough to warrant the board being re-opened.

Not sure if this kind of criticism is allowed here but since the Revenge page is closing anyway I might as well get it off my chest.

Imo the expectations for a board's traffic during a major hiatus are severely unrealistic. The reason why noone has been posting is because there is nothing to post about besides endless speculation. The show has been on hiatus for nearly 3 months and the writers have put a moratorium on BTS material being released so we don't even have that to react off of.

I'm one of the most die-hard fans of this show- when it's on I check the IMDB board for it everyday. But it's simply an inevitability of TV that when nothing is coming out of a show, forum activity will die down. Personally I don't like to go on forums too much when a show I love is on hiatus because it just makes me more impatient for the show to come back.

Boards should at least be given a grace period during major hiatuses like this one. I just think it's sad, because when the show comes back there is going to be a huge revival of interest and that's what this forum should be judged on.

Sorry for the rant and I totally understand if this gets deleted (also want to clarify that this isn't against this board's mods, just the site's rules in general).

I like the idea of a grace period during hiatus. But I think what works against us is that most of the other boards about shows on hiatus (and even some that have been cancelled) have no trouble keeping their board traffic up.

I think there just aren't as many Revenge fans on FF.

Maybe if we can get more online fans to join FF and post on the threads we're going to be allowed to have (on the Television board and Couples board), we'll be able to generate enough traffic and a loud enough presence to get the board re-opened next season.

Well I have already messaged an administrator and he said he will move our thread on the 9th so I'm with you Northbound I would rather the other thread was closed and we just use the one we have been using on here because like you said it has all our recent discussions.

I don't know why the forum isn't more popular it is by far the best place I had found to discuss Revenge. I know there is Twitter and Tumblr, but you can't say much with 140 characters and Tumblr is all pictures. On here we can post pictures and say as much as we like it is a much better way to talk about the show.

You should all come to the IMDB message board for Revenge! It's honestly the most enjoyable discussion space for the show that I've encountered (AV Club comes in a close second).

What I love about it is that several of the threads/comments posted about the show are actually negative. Not that I agree with them but these posts often spark really fun debates and discussion about the show that you find missing in spaces solely dedicated to mega-fans. Plus I find the bad press the show gets as entertaining as the good press (maybe that's just me though).

During Season 3 for instance, there was a huge schism + board war between the Emily supporters and Grayson supporters which was extremely fun to partake in.

It's a really fun, non-committal board for fans (or haters) of the show and if everyone from here headed over there the community could have some amazing potential.

Yeah, I enjoy posting here a lot. I think Twitter and Tumblr are both better when the show's actually on. But you're right that even then, it's easier to discuss things here.

I tried to register for IMDB once, but when I did I got a message saying I needed to provide credit card information or my phone number. Is that still the case? I just didn't want to give out that information to post.

But I have lurked at IMDB lots of times and I've seen some great discussion there (which is why I tried to register).
