Title: Isn't music an art?
Post by: Hyperguy on February 22, 2006, 02:23:01 pm

So, wouldn't it be kind of redundant to call a forum the "Music and Arts" forum when music is an art?  Not only that, but there's nary a music topic within, and 'art' sounds a bit stuffy.

Methinks a better name for the forum is in order.

Yeah, it -is- in art, but I get the feeling that if you don't specify that music's allowed, a lot (a lot, not all) people will totally forget about music.

But in this case, it is specified, yet less than half of the topics in the forum have anything to do with music.

I guess it does help a bit to remind people that they can post about music, but I think it'd be better to use a more inclusionary title.  My idea would be to call it the Super Arts forum, named after the super moves in SFIII.

I really wish Bill was here so I could get his say on this.

Haha, how about having everything named after fighting game stuff? Super Arts, Grand Viper or something...

That's what I did with my old forums. lalz.

But yeah, Bill.

Grand Viper, that's a good one!  I'd love to use fighting game phrases for many other things on the site, except that some sound better with their current names, and that they could get really cheesy if overused.

Bill should be back in a few months.  Hopefully he'll drop a message between now and then.

Renaming it is fine, but music should still be mentioned in the title, somehow, do something clever.
