I have to add them via terminal

EDIT: There is some confusion on what "category" means. Forums can be grouped into categories. Anyone can make forums after they've been signed up for 24 hours so by all means make your own forums!

oooo i see now

I think a sorta "I made this" category might be cool! for the drawe, photography, cooking, etc forums

and maybe something like 'fandom' for like, anime/games/cartoons etc"?

im not totally sure what the purposes of the categories is so idk how useful this is as ideas but!

i think something like "create" for user-made things would be neat. stuff like eate, drawe, etc.

toasthaste wrote at January 8, 2018, 12:34 AM

Oh I like this actually! I think rolling it all into one would be a good idea

you can make your own forums!! hit the create forum button here http://www.jstpst.net/forums

this is for "categories" which is a higher level thing we can put forums into.

I would do something like

casual
serious
media
crafts (i.e. forums things people here made, not necessarily just physical craftwork)
tech
support/personal
meta

I'd prefer to provide categories on an as-needed (if-ever-needed) basis from a direct request from someone. There doesn't seem to be a way to remove them after being added and I don't want the list to get too bloated

Ok I'm somewhat late, but I could think of a two very broad categories:

Arts and entertainment: killallgames, anime4unme, post_music, itookthisphoto, imadethis, just_drawe, Yuri_hut. This could also be named Arts and media.
General: general, just_post, ask.

I think two categories suffice for now honestly, we only have 17 forums and these two categories would leave 7 without one, namely:

meta
me_irl
vote_satan
just_eate
Selfcare
spookyskeletongifs
technology

I think these are very heterogenous and it's not worth it to either broaden the two categories or make new categories with just one or two forums just to create some order. (Official admin run forums like meta could warrant their own category, but that's another reason.)

Another option would be that Arts and entertainment would be split into two, namely

Crafts and creative pursuits: itookthisphoto, imadethis, just_drawe and (maybe) just_eate. (I'm not entirely sold on the name.)
Arts and entertainment: killallgames, anime4unme, post_music, Yuri_hut.

That would leave three categories.
