I would suggest we start with the Film & TV folder for now just because the category seems pretty straightforward (despite some of the above discussion).

My 2¢ on what is included in Film & TV is that any movie and/or TV threads be included. Even Buffy/Angel. I think who we are is pretty clear from the header. An extra click to find the thread won't change that. I would probably also include Minearverse.

Do you think people will scroll down that far, and find the link for the show and TV thread subfolder, though? I think adding a subfolder is only going to be useful if we get a lot more of the threads off of that index page.

Oh! I also wanted to mention that I really hope we don't change the order that threads come up in. It's really useful to me to have the most recently active thread on the top. I can tell where I need to go for the hopping conversation, even if I'm thousands of posts behind in the other threads.

I agree, that may be the next logical step. I just think deciding what-goes-into-what-folder and what-do-we-call-each-folder will take longer to agree on for the other threads.

eta I'm so rarely on the front page that I didn't realize the red bar said "Subfolders." It would probably be better if it said "Folders" but I have no idea if that is a simple edit or if it has to be that way because of the code.

I think we should just let ita do what she thinks is best and then sit back and see if it works the way most people like it.

Did I miss something? Was this suggested too?

I can flip the subfolders to above the thread list pretty easily.

I said I found it confusing to find things on the front page *because* they change based on activity, and that folders would make it easier to find the threads you were looking for. But no one suggested (I don't think) changing the way threads move position based on the last post in each.

Flipping the subfolders above the thread list sounds peachy. I vote for piling in all the TV and movie threads you feel like, ita.

I personally don't like the way it looks looked for a few minutes, with the folders, especially the closed thread folder, above the others.

I am also still opposed to folders for open threads.

On the other hand,

This is more true.

Is there a way to fix the order in which the folders are displayed, or is it first in, first out?
