I thought it was an organizational thing. Then a reading/writing folder makes sense. A Message Center person myself, so no matter.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My idea was to make it so the front page didn't grow anymore, because it was unwieldy. I feel that has been achieved.

If I only had a brain...
Can I have a link in the bottom of the page that's something like "Folder message center"? Right now, I read by
Message Center -> TV Folder -> Veronica Mars -> Message Center lather, rinse, repeat.

What do you mean by folder message center?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I don't understand this. The Message Center doesn't have folders.

That's the point. When I finish reading a thread, I always click Message Center. Now that bounces me back two levels (out of the folder and into the center) instead of one.
I'd like to have something like the Message Center that bops me back to the thread-display level of the current folder rather than bopping me back to root.

It never bounced you back any number of levels -- the message centre is level free.
What you seem to want is to be returned to the parent folder of the thread you're reading. Is that accurate?

But if the idea of the TV folder was to neaten the home page, wouldn't a reading and writing folder help accomplish that goal?
This is how I feel as well, but I understand if it's a no-go.
