I think that if you don't put B/A and FF in a TV folder, but leave them in "Community" or "General" or whatever, you might as well not have folders.

I have no opinion whether we should have folders or not, but if we do, I'd like the topic threads to all be gathered into folders.

Firefly's not only not on TV anymore, it's a movie. Into a media folder, sure. Into a TV folder ... I don't think so.

Why not a media folder, not TV? Could everything be either media or community?

Or technology.

I'd put B-tech into the community category.

Why? I mean, it isn't one. If the category name doesn't help you find the thread, then the thread shouldn't be in it, should it?

I'm not trying to be a naysayer, but despite the upcoming movie, to me FF is always going to be a tv show. Yclassification-of-canceled-series-made-into-moviesMV.

That's not something I'd even try and argue you out of. Firefly hasn't stopped being a TV show just because they're making a movie. But I don't think it's scandalous to suggest that the thread discussion even now is on-topic broader than TV, by a good bit, and will get broader yet once the movie goes into wide release.

Why? I mean, it isn't one.

Hmm. I think maybe the initial distinction in my head was things people would come here for versus things people who are already here would be into. But then that puts the music thread into my community pile, which seems weird, too.

Just having TV and Other doesn't feel all that organizationally useful to me, although I guess if you add the spoiler threads and etc. it's a good chunk of our stuff.

What about fanfiction?
