Post subject:  Why no music in Media forum?

It makes perfect sense to me to include music threads in the Media subforum, but apparently it doesn't to you. I'm not putting you down or anything, it's not a big deal, but I'd just like to know your reasoning for not putting those threads in. Could someone explain to me the logic behind this decision?

No, it makes sense, we just wanted to keep them in OSD. We didn't want too much in Media, and we think the kinds of topics currently in Media will easily be enough to make it just active enough.

That doesn't make sense to me. "Just active enough"? Off-Subject has more activity than any other board. That doesn't mean we should move topics that belong there somewhere else. Some forums just end up being more active than others, whaddya gonna do, so I think you might as well put things where they belong. Just my opinion.

Without all the vidyas and muzaks and such, OT has what, the "What are you?" threads.

Partly due to vidyas, now that RT is gone.

I see what you mean, but I never said I wanted the Internet stuff moved. Then again, I dunno. Maybe you're right. No matter what happens, it's not a big deal anyway. I'm not going to boycott the forum or anything.

Sorry, I didn't really phrase that right (and I'm still not sure the right way to, so I'm not gonna try). Fact is, even though it's called the Media forum, it's not. It's the TV, Video Games and Movies forum. But there was no short and simple way to call it that so it ended up as Media.

Media

In before Media is the most active board. It definitely will be.

We must quell those who ask questions. Some things are better left un answered.

Post subject:  Re: Why no music in Media forum?

I just don't get why there was a problem with the way it was before. Internet and Music in OSD. TV, Movies, Vidyas in Media. That way the discussions in both are split and make for better forums and more activity. If we add anything else to Media then there wouldn't be enough leeway to make separate threads for each say, TV show, and we'd be back to "All things Television" threads. And if we take music out of OSD, then there's no way we could make all the threads for each genre of music.

Very funny guise.


No, but seriously, it wasn't that big a deal at all. I had already forgotten about it. Also, after actually reading Ace's post above, I can totally see where you're coming from, so I get it now I guess.

Anyway, you can keep it like that, but please change the subtitle soon.

In b4 it stays up there for a year

Yeah, it should really go back to what it was before (what I posted). That should be acceptable. :)

We should now call "Off Subject Discussion" something like "Everything Else".

Or not...?

Author:  Jitka [ Mon Jul 14, 2008 5:09 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Why no music in Media forum?

I think we should call it "Corn Pies for Betsy: The Luther Vandross Story"

No, not as the description, make the current title the description and make the new title "Corn Pies for Betsy: The Luther Vandross Story".

I thought it was to be like this.

Corn Pies For Betsy

That's more what I had in mind.

I thought that's what we all had in mind.

Not to mention I thought this was for OSD, not Media.
