Hey, I didn't want to read through all your pages of posts but:

Why are you all so involved in this re-naming process?

Is it really even up to you?

It seems like you are all getting really concerned about it.

Yeah, it's up to all of us. Why wouldn't it be? I mean, I guess Toups could be a dick and call it toupsisyourgod.omfg (hmmmmmm) but I don't think he's going to.

All that would do is put the guy out the domain registration fee ;_;

kuribosshoe.com

tanukiflight.com

OSIE.net

"hardtype.com" is the only suggestion that doesn't come off like an uninspired pastiche of Insert Credit.
Although I like toiletgoblins because hey, Ghoulies!
Either way I'm going to lurk regardless, because I enjoy the discourse, personalities, and drama.

people like rocketlawnchair? I'm imagining a look for rocketlawnchair a bit more illustrative than most of the other choices but if we're trying to recreate the look of and feel of ic (ugh) by all means go with select button ¯¯¯¯n¯¯¯¯¯;;

hey listen is fantastic

how many domain name endings are available to us? could we get .sex? or .edu?

.museum?!?!

Psiga · Posted: Wed Nov 29, 2006 1:14 am Post subject:

I saw .museum earlier today and was like WOAH.

Ironically, no .game yet. NOBODY USES THE INTERNET FOR GAMES I MEAN GEEZE HA HA HA.

Guys this thread is now about 4 things only:
PROJECTONECON
SELECTBUTTON
HEYLISTEN
HARDTYPE

Basically heylisten is fucking perfect.

Multiple domain names and banners would be an amazing way to put our "brand" on ice. While the site is growing and establishing itself, we need a strong identity. By all means you could redirect multiple domains, but one would have to be the definitive article for it to make sense to newcomers.

I'm pretty fond of HardType myself, though there is a definite appeal to HeyListen, too.

RocketLawnchair is fantastic, though. If not used in this situation, it should definitely be used elsewhere.

as opposed to hardtype ^__^

I can't say heylisten without laugh a little, which is a good thing I guess, and hardtype is growing on me.

heylisten or hardtype would both please me pretty significantly

i really liked the suggestion "attitudeforgains" but maybe that would imply that we're more about shooters than anything else?

since the phrase is so strange though, i feel like we could appropriate it to mean anything we want it to.

dudes, hardtype is a shitty title seriously think about this it implies all the wrong things

And yeah I'm not too happy about the implications of hardtype even though I really like the ideas of calling them the hardtype forums. It's very URL/banner friendly, and it's something that you remember.

Onecoin isn't as url/banner friendly, but I like the implications a bit more.

heylisten is almost perfect except that we don't want to be a zelda forum. I'm not sure if I love hardtype or not though.
