Since When Has This Place Had Community Forums?

I am terribly confused! In my reality, Internet Movie Database killed the boards on February 20, 2017! I have avoided this site like the plague since then and boycotted with every means at my disposal. This is the first time I have signed in here since that date. Today in my email I received a badge in honor of my contributions to these Community Forums! WHAT contributions? WHAT Community Forums? Is this an alternate universe? Has someone stolen my identity? Thanks for any clarification!

Your profile shows that you posted comments here in a post about the message boards in 2017. I don't know why you would receive a notification about a badge after so long.

Thanks for your answer. I saw that my old posts were still here after posting the above and was still confused. I understood that all the boards had been wiped on February 20, 2017, so how could anything I posted still be around?

This community is separate from the old message boards and is mainly for support for IMDb features. At the time, you may have followed a link from IMDb to comment on the message board closure.

So this place is about IMDb but is not run by them?

@cornelia_shields This site is about IMDb and run by IMDb, however, it is hosted on the Sprinklr platform which is why it requires a separate login than imdb.com. It is a community support site so you will find posts and answers from other customers and from IMDb employees. We are identified by an “Employee” tag on replies. Hope this helps.
