Name change

[Del Murder]

Can we rename the 'Video Game Music / The Spirits Within' forum to the 'Final Fantasy Multimedia' forum? That way we can have things like FF anime or any related stuff discussed there (not that it comes up, but that damn movie hardly comes up either - get rid of it!) Or something better if someone has a suggestion. I've always disliked that title.

[DMKA]

I agree with this proposal.

[Yamaneko]

Okay.

[Raistlin]

But it's "Video Game Music," not just "Final Fantasy Music," so it should be renamed to "Video Game Multimedia," in which case it should just be merged with General Gaming and be done with it. No one discusses the damn movie, anyway.

[Del Murder]

I'd rather it stay down there, but you do raise a good point. It is a very odd forum.

[eestlinc]

I think we should just not mention it much.

[Sepho]

Raist raised the point I was going to bring attention to. "Final Fantasy Multimedia" is too narrow a topic, and there'd be limited discussion.

I'd have to disagree with his other proposal, though. There are other, equally inactive forums (that's pointing out that VGM/TSW is active enough; not a complaint about the inactivity of other forums) and General Gaming Discussion is pretty busy by itself. It wouldn't be so bad if a merge occured, but it's not absolutely necessary.

The subject matter of the forum would have to be figured out before a proper name change. "Video Game Multimedia" is a good, broad topic, but the title doesn't really work. It's catchy, but doesn't stick out to users as more than an aesthetically pleasing, smooth flowing group of words. They will see it, say "wtf", and go elsewhere, I think. But I suppose that's what the descriptions are for.

Oh, carry on.

I think we should just not mention it much.
And continue to pretend it doesn't exist?

[Loony BoB]

Run it by Cid because I think we brought up canning the forum before and he told us to shove it up our arse before we do so, and nobody was willing.

Something like that, anyway.

[Raistlin]

Then I think you should set Cid to ed's technicolor nightmare with the banner "Shove it up YOUR arse, punk!"

EDIT: I should probably mention to only do this if you really don't like your job.

[Del Murder]

I don't want to can it, just change the ugly name. I like that forum because it is the only gaming one Archie posts in.

[Raven Nox]

Why not take out the "STW" part and if people wanna talk about it they can do it in Generel Sqaure Enix... or the lounge.

[Raistlin]

Why not just ditch the damn forum altogether, because if people want to discuss an individual FF's music(or KH, etc), they do it in that FF's forum(like they do anyway), and if they want to discuss FF's music in general, they do it in General Final Fantasy, and if they want to discuss any other game's music, they do it in General Gaming.

And if someone wants to discuss the movie, they can go find the two other people that care.

[Raven Nox]

Works for me.

[Agent Proto]

"General Final Fantasy/Video Game Entertainment"

[Psychotic]

Baloki told me to post that you shouldn't change the name of it or he'll make a second account and post the naked photos of Raistlin that he has. Don't say I didn't warn you.

[Shoeberto]

Sounds hot!

[Agent Proto]

I say we change it then! Hot Raist Porn is a win situation!
