*gazes over.* Or you could give it a good name.
When quoting someone, you should say that you are quoting them.
â€Ullery†said:
And just what was that supposed to have meant if I might clarify politely?
You are not clarifying anything, politely or otherwise. You are asking me to clarify. Technically, that sentence does not even make sense.
â€Ullery†said:
because that looks like the beginings of either an insult, or a post stating that my names weren't even remotely good.
The word ‘because’ follows a question mark, which means it is the beginning (proper spelling) of a new sentence and should be capitalized. Funny that you ask for clarification (or offer it, actually) when you obviously understood perfectly.
â€Ullery†said:
I just need clarification is all, cause the way it's posted, it leaves me to question wether that was an attack or simply a pun of words.
You do not need clarification, since you have already shown that you understood my post. You have misspelled ‘because’ ('cause' is an entirely different word) and you have misspelled ‘whether’. Lucky for you, I have had access to the internet long enough that I have developed the ability to decipher less than literate text.
My post was not an ‘attack’, nor was it a ‘pun of words’. (Whatever the hell that is. Perhaps you should look up the definition of ‘pun’.
Here, I did it for you.)

Thank you
You are most welcome. FYI, that should have had a period at the end. Unless you count that silly emoticon as a period, which I do not.
Now, if you don’t mind, let’s not turn Unholy Charm’s thread into a discussion of how bad you are at expressing yourself in text. Okay? Okay, good. Now sit down until you are called on.
Unholy Charm, I do not think ‘The Dragon’s Den’ would be a logical name for a forum that has no relationship to RP, myself, and have come to understand that you are actually trying to name the entire community, not a single forum (or board, as you call them). That is a bit more difficult.
Naming an entire forum community takes some thought. It must be a name that easily reflects the community’s primary focus, so that people will be tempted to look it over and possibly become a member. You have said that the community is basically a hang out and that just about any topic under the sun can be discussed within its forums. Like a “Coffee Shopâ€, as you put it. That’s fine and dandy, but why would I want to join said community (for example)? What is it about this forum community that will attract new members? In other words, what is its primary focus? Who are its ‘target members’?
Things like that really matter if you wish the community to grow. Although, if it is nothing more than a hang out for yourself and a group of online friends, you do not have to worry so much about such things.
What does all this have to do with naming it? Everything. A forum community needs a name that makes sense and psychologically creates a desire to ‘hang out’ there. The act of coming up with such a name is far easier if you have an overall plan for the community as a whole, and the name of the community is far more important in the long run that one might realize.
Unfortunately, I do not have any further suggestions at this time, but I hope I have given you some food for thought that might help you come up with something on your own. If not, then the more description of the community you can provide, the more likely it will be that I, or someone else, will be able to help you out.
