Title: Forum name?
Post by: Sayoko on August 14, 2011, 09:52:39 pm
Let's face it, Dogcider is a terrible name. theydonothing;

Any and all suggestions for a less terrible forum name would be greatly appreciated. Then we can have a poll or something once we have a few names that people like. Discuss.

Something without -sider (or anything that sounds like it) would be wonderful. I mean really, it's so tacky.

er, not that I have any actual suggestions, but you know

something to keep in mind

I agree with the idea of distancing this forum from that cesspool.

I always like 'The Horde'.

intimidating

Yeah, going to have to second that and extend it a bit further. Nothing derivative at all. I don't want this to be a swollen pustule on the amorphous backside of something else. It makes it lack focus and becomes something that doesn't stand on its own merits. It also discourages people that are completely new from joining.

If this is the case, you won't want to make it relevant to TROU or anything from the old hat either.

WE DONT KNOW WHAT IT CAN BE, WE DON'T KNOW WHAT IT WILL BE. But we know that its cool.

You guys should probably decide right know whether you want this forum to be a community, or a 2nd over glorified clubhouse. Just my opinion though.

I think most people will agree that while it started as a retreat from the whirling vortex of shit that is NS2 has become, we'd all like it to become a little more than just a spin-off of it or any other forum. The only way the forum will be able to sustain itself for very long is if it has its own merit and isn't just a place for people to congregate and hate NS2.

I like Etoh well enough.  Superflon sounds ridiculous.

Post by: Sayoko on August 16, 2011, 02:41:21 pm
I guess Etoh is okay. Nobody else seems to be offering up any suggestions. y;

If that's going to be our name, we should come up with some kind of logo or icon or mascot that goes with it? I'd personally like something that's open to parody, because then we could do rotating banners or something like that.

Ideas?

I kinda do like Superflon

question though, if we change the domain name, will Dogcider.com redirect here or will you have to ditch that completely?

That might be the case, but I think if it didn't everyone would still get fair warning. Constant sudden domain changes are something that killed activity big time back on trou.
