And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The wording doesn't bother me the way it is, but for the sake of consistency I do think both titles should either contain the word "threads" or not.

Or maybe instead of "Subfolders," the red bar could say "Foldered Threads." Just to be blazingly obvious about it.

move out and draw fire

The user interface is dynamically generated. So you need to change either (well, both) the database structure and the logic that parses it.

Yeah, I figured.

How about "Threads," "Other Threads," "Still More Threads," and "Bojangler?"

All is well that ends in pizza.

DCJ, you really think the word threads would fix that?

It would help, unless adding one more word to the name causes great pain and suffering.

At least while the whole thing is in flux.

From an outside perspective, Film and TV could mean anything, and being separated from the main discussion area by "subfolders" and with the closed threads even more so.

(Oh, but then the wording on the Film/TV page gets messed up, and the way that page looks is awesome.)

I'm so conflicted.

Or call it

Film And TV Discussion Areas

Something to indicate the reason for the linkin.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, looking at it again, it sort of looks like the things in the subfolder aren't "Discussion Threads."

Moved to actual right thread should be suggested in.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I changed it to your language, DCJ. Do you see how it's going to require coding changes to make the page itself make sense?

Otherwise, any seconds?

One thread up, Sean.
