TIP Name

[smock]

Y'all, I think it's time to decide if we're going to officially change our name. And if so, to what?

Any strong opinions about changing or not changing?

Trouble in Peenville?

Just the...

[smock]

I guess if we want to still attract posts from TN or other boards, we need something in our name about problem solving and advice and such. Or maybe we shouldn't change since we have the sidebar now which makes less scrolling to get to the bottom of the alphabet.

[broc]

If we do switch, imo.we need tokeep it so we're.still obviously a place.to.get advice, like smock said. We can be witty, but we need tobe somewhat googleable if we want new blood.

I kinda think TIP will be an enduring concept by itself, even if we change our name. I don't care about the scrolling, as long as I don't mistakenly click on "Trash to Treasure."

TIP forevah!!

[Muddled]

Do we have to change?

[beebeeeater]

I don't get why we would change it..

[smock]

I'm leaning towards keeping the old name--at least until we get a cease and desist letter from TN! I've gotten used to the scrolling.

As far as I know, they don't have a copyright on the name Trouble in Paradise. I say we keep it.

[fussbucket]

Lol it is possible to ignore a c&d letter. In no way are we trying to represent that we are TN or any of its affiliated brands. Because who would want to do THAT?

[smock]

No, Crassus, if they send a letter we have to CEASE and DESIST!!!!

Because the LETTER TOLD US TO!!!!

[Muddled]

It's highly unlikely that TN would have copyrighted TIP. It's possible, I suppose, but it would be like copyrighting "easy street" or some other phrase that is widely used and was long before TN existed.

It is more likely that someone else has it copyrighted.

Hey, they're the ones who fucked shit up, we're the ones who rescued it - I say we keep TIP.

I love imoan's suggestion.
Perfect!

Harrumph, wake me when the Parthians are advancing.

[broc]

So, considering how the left bar is shaping up, I vote we become AAAAAATIP for a little while. lol.

[Muddled]

lol Broc.

I kinda like that we're very last. Way better than being stuck in the middle somewhere.
