It turns out that it's not only the council members who noticed that the "Other" section in the videos section was very unorganized. We thought that by adding the humor section we could solve that, but it turns out that wasn't enough
This thread is to discuss some ideas as to how to organize it. I like the idea of splitting the "other" section further into more categories instead of just creating new sections. But if we think of any other good ones, then I'm sure that can be arranged.

Now, I'm not someone who uses the site to browse through to see what type of video I want to see, so I wouldn't know as well what kind of arranging should be done, but I thought of these:

multi-character (non-shipper)

or...

Rock
Angst
Slow

My Take

ACTION
ANGST

I have like 8 of my videos in the other section..you'd think I could come up with more LOL.

Hmmm change "Other" to Ensemble (but spell it right LOL)--
then catergorize by music type-ie
Rock
Alternative
Gangsta Rap (in enchirito's case LOL)
Etc

How about this:

"Lovey Dovey" (Romance)
"Action Packed" (Action)
"Tear-Jerkers" (Drama/Sad stuff)
"Knee Slappers" (To rename the Comedy section.)
"Angst-Ridden" (Angsty)


I don't know, there seems to be a LOT of rock in the other section. The "Rock" section would become the "new" other section if you divided it by music.


Laura, you get a cookie because you actually spelled ensemble correctly! I actually dig the idea of calling the other sub-sections the "ensemble" category.

you could do:

1-Action Packed
2-Romance
3-Experimental or Ensemble
4-Group
5-Character Study
6-Comedy
7-Constructed Reality
8-Episodic
9-Narrative
10-Recruiter
11-Slash
12-Drama

Those are just a few off the top of my head.
