Suggestions for Games Forum

[Sugaree]

As Ant said we need a poll for suggestion on the Games forum.

I have made these as examples. I will be glad if you can give me some examples if so then PM me.

So go ahead and start voting

[Hauptmann Kauffman]

VT arcade sounds good

[Sugaree]

I kind of more leaning to The VT Fun Place

[Hauptmann Kauffman]

Really? I think thats the worst one of all, sounds like crap being shoved deep into my ear canal (jk) But seriously, I hate that name:P

[Sugaree]

Well hey that's just me lol :D

VT Arena and VT Olympics sounds pretty good to. As I said PM me if you have any suggestions and I'll add them

[theOperaGhost]

I like VT Casino.

[The Resurrected One]

I like VT Casino.

Me too.

[Bobby]

I'm pretty sure you can't edit your polls, and I'm also pretty sure these are hardly the best choices.

[redcar]

Well hey that's just me lol :D

Yea you can't edit polls so you will need to contact me or a GMod for that. ;)

[Patchy]

I like the idea of the vt Olympics,

I've seen on some other forums a actual games arcade, with gems like pacman etc. I wont post the link but pm me if your wanting to see a example forum with a arcade.

[Aηdy]

The VT Casino :thumbsup:

[Bobby]

I still like The Game Palace...but that is absent from the poll.

[redcar]

Not anymore...

[Bobby]

Thankyou Alex.

[Hauptmann Kauffman]

I think that the VT Casino sounds nice, but sends a message promoting gambling, which i really dont think is right :/

[Maverick]

I kinda agree. I don't think forum games really fit the gambling nature of casinos. Also I think the name doesn't fit a teen site.

[Aηdy]

Meh, that's just a bit over the top I think, it's a forum.

[Maverick]

Meh, that's just a bit over the top I think, it's a forum.Don't get me wrong its not a bad name. But something like VT Arcade for example better fits the idea of games, rather than Casino which means things like gambling, poker, slot machines

[Malcolm Tucker]

VT Games Arena-I like it :)
VT Olympics-Hmm, is it me or does it not kinda fit :\
VT Arcade-Not too bad :)
The VT Fun Place-Ehe
VT Casino-No way, as it approves gambling. As said above
The Game Palace-Nice

Can the decrition be something like :

Welcome, pawn n00bs at own risk

[Gumleaf]

i think vt arcade makes the most sense and sounds the most appropriate.

[Sugaree]

No the description should be "Pwn all n00bs!" lol.

[The Resurrected One]

I voted for VT Casino at first. Oh well, but that was before all the posts made about it happened. :D

I like VT Games Arena. That's my new vote. :P

[Aηdy]

Ok, only a few days to go, we need your vote if you've not voted yet!

[redcar]

11 people have voted, there will need more than that for it to count.

[Sugaree]

How many people have to vote? We already have 5 votes for VT Arcade

[redcar]

Ok we have 648 active members according to our statistics. 5 votes is currently in a majority. Thats about 0.7% of the active members. Decisions of this nature require a larger portion, or else it shows there is lack of interest and therefore not wanted.

[Sugaree]

Sorry but you got me caught off guard. I was looking for a specific number

[Aηdy]

Just because people can't be bothered to vote can't mean that we don't get something. It's their own problem if they don't vote.

[redcar]

I was looking for a specific number

I am not though.

All I am saying is if people don't, or won't show interest in deciding a name, I think it reflects on the true demand for the forum.

[Aηdy]

If they gave a shit then they would've said something. But they obviously don't do they? So why can't us people who are regulars here and do give a shit have something we want?

[redcar]

If they gave a shit then they would've said something.
My point exactly. We are talking about creating a new forum, 11 people is not sufficent amount for that to go ahead, because it means the majority do not want it.

[Aηdy]

If they didn't want it, they would've voted no. but they don't care so they completely ignored it.

[Triple7]

Perhaps a posting in the announcement forum or an old-fashioned vB global announcement asking people to vote in the poll would help this?

[Aηdy]

Definately. I've been trying to advertise it as much as possible, but my sig is already at the damn limit.

[redcar]

Good idea, I'll stick up an accouncement.

[The Batman]

I'll advertise it in my signature to help spread the word

[Sugaree]

Yeah I'll get on that to

[Underground_Network]

VT Casino sounds like the best.. I'll try and think of some other name suggestions, but a creative mind needs some rest before it can resume thinking, so I'll edit any ideas I have into this post.

[Aηdy]

I think VT Casino sounds best. And to be honest I don't think we need any more ideas, it's just a case of voting now.

[Underground_Network]

It doesn't matter lol, I couldn't think of anything anyways. :P

[Antares]

The VT Fun Place is my vote. Its abbreviable. VTFP.
and also its different.

VT Arcade is WAYYY to generic I think...

[Serenity]

Lol you can abbreviate all of them. And doesn't The VT Fun Place sound just a little juvenile? I mean it's right up there with Chuck E. Cheese's...And how is the VT Fun Place less generic than the VT Arcade? lol

[Aηdy]

Lol, VT Casino is the way to go :P

[Bobby]

The Game Palace...is awesome.

[sophies_justice]

i like the VT Casino personaly...and i'm not too worried about the whole gambling thing. it's a forum, not some website that lets you bet on things and takes your money. i think it'll all be okay, really. :)

[Gavin]

hmmm is neck and neck at the moment :lol:

[Aηdy]

We've more than doubled the votes now, but please keep them coming!

[Mzor203]

I think VT arcade sums it up the best with a nice, short, and snappy name.

[Aηdy]

The announcement has had over 200 views yet only 25 votes on the poll still!

[Maverick]

Guests and search engine spiders can view announcements too. ;)

[Aηdy]

But still, quite a few must have been members who looked and didn't care lol.

[Aηdy]

We still need [B]your votes everyone!

[Whisper]

I did vote like ages ago -sticks tongue out-

[Aηdy]

Well aren't you special? :P

[The Batman]

After we decide the names what are you gonna do about the games in people's diaries are you gonna leave them there or move them to the game forum

[Maverick]

If the diary owner wants to move their game threads to the games forum they can, but games won't be forcibly moved.

[Sugaree]

It will only be if the diary owners want them to be moved. They shouldn't be moved by force as Ant said

[Underground_Network]

You should replace shouldn't with won't Matt, because nobody is going to forcibly move games from anyones diary.. I'm probably only going to move my Word by Word, if I move any games at all. (I'll probably wait and see how much traffic it gets before I move any games)

[Sugaree]

no because shouldn't......w/e I'm not doing this shit with you Adam ok? Use what kind of gramar you want since I don't give a bloody crap.

I can use whatever words I want and please stop correcting me. You're not a mod and you have no power to tell me how to spell. So just stop ok.

[Underground_Network]

^^ Lmao, it wasn't even a grammar mistake. My point was that shouldn't would mean that its highly recommended not to, but they still CAN. Won't means that no matter the games will not be moved. Nothing to do with grammar, just has to do with the definition of the words. I wasn't even correcting you. I was kind of just making sure. I don't want any mods going rogue on us. :P

[redcar]

Well it looks like the general consensus is a yes, with the VT Arcade the current name of choice.

[Aηdy]

Right, do it!

[Sugaree]

give Alex some time here Andy :P Can't do it right away

[redcar]

Right, do it!
I am trying to help here... dont make me regret coming back into this thread.

[Aηdy]

Come on, I was only messing. I know how long it takes.
