Should we change our name?

Post by scooter »

We might be adopting some new standards here at the Forums...while Atlantic will continue to be our host, should we consider a different name to reflect our new status?

You can make suggestions in the comments...

errrrrrr - now I have to think of something????

My old forums was called Sanctuary, so obviously that popped to mind first. It was formed to get away from "drama" on other forums. So I'd be happy to "share" the name.

I like it. And it certainly does fit. Either we could do that or go with a variation on the theme. Hmmm...now I have to think of something.

Honestly I like the current name, I just read the email that was sent out and I think Atlantic can still fit the new approach of the forum.

The Boardwalk seems to be a good, catchy name. Are you thinking of changing the name again?

No, I think I got the vibe I'm looking for, actually...it's friendly!
