Movies Section...
« on: April 13, 2007, 11:17:07 PM »
I noticed a lot of threads about new movies over in the General Discussion boards.  Anyone think there should be a separate section for movie discussion?

Personally, I don't see the need. McAnallys is for general dicusssion about anything including movies, that is it's purpose. Having an additional board would mean just one more place to check.

Bingo.  The only reason we'll split out anything on these boards is if there's a Jim-specific topic that could use its own area.

What about a sub forum off of McAnally's?

NOTE: I AM SAYING THIS AS A POSTER< NOT A MODERATOR.

As busy as MacAnally's is, I could definately see a sub board dedicated to Media: BOOKS, TV, FILM.
It might help keep duplicate threads from occuring; since Mac's is anything goes, its very busy & things often get burried and two weeks later, someone misses there's already a thread on something and starts a new one.

I tend to agree with Mickey on this one.  Sub-boards would definately help.

I give you the Media Favorites board!

Mickey, when you get a chance, run on over and establish some policy, wouldja? :)

(Might be a good idea to scout McAnallys to move some threads on over too)

Note: It was Sameth's suggestion, I was just agree'ing ;)

Amber is apparently compiling a list to make things easier.

I may be a wee bit slow this week on this, as I'm in training all week on Vista, but I'll sneak in to do what I can where I can. (next week won't be a problem, if not done by then)

I've come to the conclusion that the only thing we talk about on McAnally's is media related ;)
