Which name for pan-elve website and FB account? poll #3

#1 Post by Calisson »

So here we are, the preferred option by far was elves.net... but it turned out not to be available, and neither elves.org.
The logical next step would be to take the second best name, elves-online.net.
However, it appears that elvesonline.net was not proposed and could fit better.

This is why we wish another opinion from you.

Copy from this post

We, being the loremaster council, have discussed this issue at length and reached a decision.

We are staying on the Ulthuan.net domain.

This will probably mean that we are not going to merge with D.net and A.org, although they are still welcome to move here and merge if they so desire. If they do want to move to U.net then we'll try our best to do justice to their members and heritage and find a good way to integrate them in U.net.

The fact that we are not moving away from the U.net domain doesn't mean we don't want to cooperate with D.net or a new elven online wargaming forum. If a facebook group gets set up for instance we can work on that together to provide it with great content. The secret santa currently running here is another example where a few D.net members have joined in. And I'm sure in the future we can think of more ways of working together.

Our conclusion was that our greatest asset is actually our name. People come here because we're Ulthuan.net, not because we have 10 years of topics in our archives. Changing our domain name won't suddenly draw in new members, but there is a good chance that it will drive away some existing members who visit us because we're Ulthuan.net.

Still, we wish D.net and A.org all the best with their initiative. We hope it becomes a succes and we'll help and support them if we can.
