Spork3245 Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 "Spawn Point" actually doesn't suck Seriously, though, here are some of the top forums on the net... https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/index.php https://forum.bodybuilding.com/ http://www.ign.com/boards/ https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards http://www.4chan.org Board names are descriptive of the expected content. It's almost like there's a formula that they follow to make the boards welcoming and garner new users without being offputting. But, hey, you're going to do what you want.

Nokra Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 I agree that "The Stage" doesn't seem like a fitting name, since there's more than just stage theater there. If we don't want to just call it "Entertainment," how about something like: "Tinseltown, Silicon Valley, and Hogwarts" or "Are You Not Entertained?!"

We went from, "If I get complaints, I'll change it," to, "The more complaints I get, the more they'll stay." That's how it was in the USSR. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
