One time i tried to do this (create parent groups and group files together) client-side, it didn't work too well, it needs a lot of server work done before (the group relations work), but it helped a bit in understanding cases like, group A starts anime, group B joins group A, group A drops, group B continues, group B drops, group A resumes and finishes.
That`s what I meant, yes, thank you, fahrenheit
I honestly don`t see an easy way to display the entire 'row' of that process, where you want to see all episodes from A, A-B and B in 1 selection. But that`s practically what I would like to see in my web-interface. Unfortunately, the only way of displaying that used to be the expand-all. Which was annoying as hell for longer series if you only get to hear 2 months afterwards that the original group has dropped it, or did a joint with another group instead, or that the joint broke off and one of the groups continues it alone.
... a notification-switch from 1 group to joint-group would be appreciated there, or the other way around - from joint to splitted groups instead. Although sometimes both groups continue alone, which makes it a bit more complicated again
But that might be a bit off-topic in this thread.
