Suggestion for new names for forums:

Couldn't find a better place to put this, and since I made and created it.. =P

TiMaC becomes Community Creations

TiRaP becomes Community Interests


Opinions?

Re: Suggestion for new names for forums:

Support, but this should be in suggestions. This way, things currently excluded (like news) will have a place for a thread.

(Yay! I didn't trigger Pico's censors!)


Tip of the whatever: Don't post in threads older than 2 weeks unless your post will actually be useful.
It's the last day of 1.4! *cries* (quote from NeilWest, rest by me) by the time you read this it probably will be 2.0  sad

Re: Suggestion for new names for forums:

I like the names - brief and catchy! 

But I don't think we're interested in widening the scope of the forums.  The current names, although admittedly awkward, have the advantage of spelling out pretty clearly what is supposed to go in the forums.

Note:  Ah!  Pico messed up my post  sad

Miscellaneous was messy.

TIMaC and TIRaP are too limited.

Re: Suggestion for new names for forums:

Maybe not "Community interests". That seems too broad.
Community creations is fine cause it's essentially what were creating, or our creations.

Re: Suggestion for new names for forums:

Hm...maybe it could be "Community Inspirations" instead of Instrests? Thats not as short or catchy, but it could still work.

We did? I don't remember that at all, and I was on the day Misc was deleted and replaced with the forums.  hmm


Bye 1.4!

I think soniku's talking about the Inspiration and more forum which was widened into the "Making scratch projects" category of the forums.

Remember? It was archived a long time ago...

And back to this topic, I absolutely love the names (Creations and Inspirations, Interests was pretty broad). I fail to see how they are less limiting than the current names (they mean essentially the same thing, with a bit more focus on other kinds of "inspiration" than books and games).

Why can't we just try them out on these forums until the release of 2.0, and only port them into the release if they work out? (and if they turn out to be a total mess, we can revert them beforehand).

Nothing to lose. Everything to gain. Think about the community  tongue  (cheesy enough?)
