Forum Taberna? Forum Civilium?

We could do better, surely.

Let's suggest new cool names for the Two Off-Topics!

I rather like that they are in latin. Also i do not speak latin so could not propose different ones in that language.

The name are easily the worst part of the joke. Or best depending on which side you look at it from.

OT-Lite should be "The Pub".

Keep the names coming. If we like it enough, we can ask for a change fr the admins.

I'm also somewhat meh on the current new names...

OT Fire and OT Ice. :mischief:

OT Barren and OT Busy?

The Diamond Mine and the Graffiti Wall.

OT Fire and OT Ice. :mischief:

Oooo probably my fave so far.

Red and Blue.

Archives can be renamed Yellow.

Only if the blue forum is better than the red one.

Only if the blue forum is better than the red one.

Which can be achieved by making blue dolphins an alternative to red diamonds, to signify extra laidback vibes.

Well the first game I worked on that wasn't a conversion, I made sure all the best weapons were blue, and all the worst ones were red. I only just told all the Liverpool supporters in the office about it, no-one noticed ;)

OT City and OT Nation?

ever watched the matrix?

OT High Strung and OT Balanced.

Ivory Tower and Salt of the Earth.

ever watched the matrix?

Yeah, it was rubbish?

Upstairs and Downstairs
Uptown and Downtown

I would report that as spam if it wasn't in the taberna.

Someone suggested OT Senior and OT Junior. Those would be pretty good.

It was Jolly Roger, and the OT-JR was referring to his username, I think ;)

OT-Celestia and OT-Luna?
OT War and OT Peace?
Western OT Empire and Eastern OT Empire?
Athens and Rome?
Yin and Yang?
Peanut Butter and Jelly?
Cow and Chicken?

OT-Celestia and OT-Luna?
The forums have been doubled!

Take 2:

OT-Celestia and OT-Netherworld

OT Heaven and OT Hell?

OT Heaven and OT Hell?

OT Valhalla and OT Shangri-la

OT Valhalla and OT Shangri-la

I like this one. :D

Upstairs and Downstairs
Upstairs Downstairs was a great TV show, so.... :goodjob:

New OT and OT Classic

OT and OT 2.0

OT and OT Export

OT Times and OT Post

OT University and OT Polytechnic

OT Lords and OT Commons

OT Balcony and OT Stalls

OT Coke and OT Pepsi?
OT University and OT College?

Community College maybe. I want to make it absolutely clear that one of the OTs is better than the other :p EDIT: Or maybe, one of the OTs thinks it's better than the other. I think that would be fun.

OT Harvard and OT McDonald's?

OT Yin, OT Yang
OTSRS, OTLOL
OT Edward, OT Jacob
OT Mignon, OT Spam

OT Crystal and New OT?

OT Silver and OT Gold?
OT Gold could be exclusive to invited members.

OT Ni, and OT "We are no longer the Knights who say Ni. We are now the Knights who say Ecki Ecki Ecki Ecki F'tang F'tang F'tang uuuur"

OT Crystal and New OT?

ProtOType, Ne-OT

OT A and OT Fighting Mongooses

Someone suggested OT Senior and OT Junior. Those would be pretty good.Won't fly. We don't want to single out which is the better one. Both have their purpose and role.

Won't fly. We don't want to single out which is the better one. Both have their purpose and role.
Well that's no fun :(

Won't fly. We don't want to single out which is the better one. Both have their purpose and role.

OT (Lotus Blossom) and OT (Blue Green Algae)?

OT Athens and OT Sparta?
Empire and Republic?

Maybe this deserves a poll.

OT Athens and OT Sparta?

Maybe this deserves a poll.

Polls are the tyranny of choice, this is a choose your own adventure.

OT - Burns
OT - Hawkeye

Off-Topic and On-Topic?

Off-Topic and On-Topic?
This is actually clever! :goodjob:

How about OT-Florin and OT-Guilder?

The Pub and The Salon.

I assume the audience here wouldn't think of nails and hair at the mention of salon...

April Fools! and the Off-Topic

OT A and OT Fighting Mongooses

:lol::goodjob:

The Pub and The Salon.

I assume the audience here wouldn't think of nails and hair at the mention of salon...
You should use saloon.

OT Dumb,

OT Dumber

??

Nah, we should just have the Tabernians reunify the Offtopickian lands and bring justice to the people as was done successfully in Viet Nam, which we were sadly prevented from doing in Germany and Korea.

You should use saloon.


But how would that differentiate its content from that of a pub? :p


Or... The Agora and The Academy (or Agora and Lyceum).

Intellectual property and spam cave.

Good idea, we can call them North Off-Topic and South Off-Topic.

East v. West to emphasize the ideals of the Communist East and the Capitalist imperialist schweinhunds in the West.

North to emphasize Juche moderator dictatorship and South to emphasize freedom-loving paradise.

Red Diamond Forums, The Frat House

Maybe this deserves a poll.

Maybe if there are enough options that are endorsed/nominated by enough people.

The Symposium and the Watering Hole.

Why should we call the 'serious' OT a Watering Hole?

Why should we call the 'serious' OT a Watering Hole?

What?

The Serious one would be the Symposium.

Have you ever been to a real symposium? They are much closer to the Taberna than the whatsitsname.

Why should we call the 'serious' OT a Watering Hole?
They're both too serious.

Having said that, a symposion ought to be a bunch of drunk rich guys talking about love. So that's kinda closer to this Taberna nonsense?

The Senate and the Agora?

The Senate and the Agora?
"Rome" and "Athens"?

Senatus and Forum or Boule and Agora

I think Pefectionist should get to decide what the light OT is called.

He hasn't been that active recently.

Instead, we should have downtown do it. Oh wait, he's not here either. :( Okay, errrr, Mise? Dang, he hasn't been around much either. :cry:

Okay, I'll name it! :goodjob:

Major League and Minor League, Major being the one this thread is in. ;)

Uptown and Downtown

This is the correct answer. :goodjob:

OT: People who argue about the same issues all day and OT: The fun one.

Minas Morgul and Orthanc

In that vein, Narchost-Carchost.

OT Augustus and OT Caligula?

Off Topic & Tom Petty Subforum

Forum Taberna? Forum Civilium?

We could do better, surely.

Indeed. I suppose what´s meant is Forum Tabernae. Forum Civilium I suppose is correct, but it´s a tautology as the forum was always for the civilians...

The Tavern and The Senate?

We could get rid of all the CFC military folk, including a couple CFC mods. :deal:

Won't fly. We don't want to single out which is the better one. Both have their purpose and role.

I don't think they indicate one being better? Just one being more mature, which is sort of the point of it all.

Off Topic & T(snip) P(snip) Subforum
http://i2.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/008/632/aw-hell-naw.jpg

:mad:

Off-Topic and Off-Off-Topic

Romeo and Juliet?

OT Dumb,

OT Dumber

??

Yes with serious OT as dumber! :D

"Rome" and "Athens"?

Senatus and Forum or Boule and Agora

Athens and Sparta?
Greece and Persia?
Rome and Carthage?

OT Augustus and OT Caligula?
A physically crippled fool who accomplished little over a long period of time and a mentally crippled fool who accomplished little over a short period of time? That's a lovely analogy.Athens and Sparta?
Greece and Persia?
Rome and Carthage?
The point is that "senate" [sic] and "agora" are not even from the same civilization. It's like pairing up Jedi and their heinous antagonists the Goa'uld.

I just saw a possibilty to suggest that we name the forums such that they would appear as enemies.

Speaking of which:

Republic and Empire?
Dark side and Light side?
Jedi and Sith?

OT Tweedledum and OT Tweedledee?

OT Poland and OT North Africa

I just saw a possibilty to suggest that we name the forums such that they would appear as enemies.

Speaking of which:

Republic and Empire?
Dark side and Light side?
Jedi and Sith?

Athens and Sparta?
Slytherin and Griffindor?

On Topic
Off Topic

Edit: I checked the thread again, seeing as how this seemed too stupidly obvious for another person to miss. Consider this a +1 to Save_Ferris

What about OT: Pedantic and OT: Srs Bzns?

OT-lite and OT-serious?

I'd read that crossover fic.

The Taberna could be the 'On Topic' forum.

OT Boring and OT Starponies

OT Harmony and OT Discord

Apollo and Dionysus?

Bacchanalia then.

Since it's April 2 and the forum split has that air of officiality, let's see some truthful names:

Discussions: The Testground

OT: The Real World.

The Graveyard and Spam Tsunami.

I like OT:DPTO and OT:TDC.

OT and OT: DLC

OT-A and OT-1. Two different universes.

Uptown and Downtown
I think we could use a good monument to downtown. :goodjob:

It would be better if they put pics instead of names:

OT-http://www.seriouscat.com/serious_cat_is_serious.jpg

and

OT-http://s1.static.gotsmile.net/images/2011/10/24/derp-cat-y2bbc_131947141369.jpg

OT and Whose OT Is It Anyways?

OT Bonzai Kitten?

Dare I say...

OT - North Korea
OT - Somalia

?

OT Comedy and OT Tragedy :p

OT and Wheaty.

Hm, Macedonia (Greek) and Fyromania (Slavic)

Ot - pc
ot - npc

Off-icial and Off-ensive :p

:joke:

The land of Post Counts
The land without Post Counts

The land of posts
The land without posts

Saves typing.

How about OT:No Whiners Allowed and OT:Somebody call the Whambulance.

OTldr

OTroll

It would be better if they put pics instead of names:

OT-http://www.seriouscat.com/serious_cat_is_serious.jpg

and

OT-http://s1.static.gotsmile.net/images/2011/10/24/derp-cat-y2bbc_131947141369.jpg

I like this idea.

That looks like a kitten being prepared for kitten huffing though. At least it isn't a ginger kitten.

Wait, does postcount not count here?

Wait, does postcount not count here?

lolno.

Well, this could get us rid of the irksome Domination3000…

Apollo and Dionysus?
Thanks, Fred. Although I would've thought "OT: Beating Horses to Death" would've been better.

Apollo and Dionysus?

Who would like to post into OT-I can't get laid?

to-OT and to-not OT

Post Count OT and Other Post Count OT

I'd really like the names to somehow convey the moderated light/heavy aspect of each sub-forum.

OT - Plumper
OT - Spinner

OT-SRSBZNS
OT-SPAM

That's my impression, anyway, and the names I'll be using.

Taberna - Liberty
Civilius - Intellect


Then in a few months:

Anarchy
Pretension

OT-Lite should be "The Pub".

I rather like this one.

OT-SRSBZNS
OT-SPAM

That's my impression, anyway, and the names I'll be using.
Serious Business
Off-Topic

Easy-peasy.
