New comunity/name sugestion/ideas

Now that zE Palace server has grown and seems to be more populated I am kinda bugged with my name on it looks like a egocentric thing, and I want the server name to have a more comunity server feeling instead.
Speaking to nightmare, he also brought the idea of doing it like a community server like [OT] and [Talos] which is a good idea also, so plz tell your toughs and ideas here ty.

Names I thought of:

LIES -> Loony in every situation -> tag example: Nightmare[LIES]

gone -> gamers on next evolution/ gamers on new experience -> tag example: Nightmare is gone*

LF -> Lunatic Fringe -> tag example : |LF| Nightmare

xD -> xD Palace - Home of Laughter -> tag example: [xD] Nightmare

that's all I got so far. Hope you guys are more successfull than I am .

TBH i dont think a name change would change anything. People who are regular players join because they know how it's run. If they like it they stay. Random players join because there are players on it and so the snowball effect starts. Golden rule, look after the regulars and the rest will follow.

yeah, you sure are right about that. Although I'd say that the community thing might add a new touch to it. Our regulars are a fullfilled requirement to build up a working community. Idd most regulars won't get into the community thing because most of them just might not care. They're on the server to play, that's it. But as zE's server is one of the most popular ff servers, there will always be new players joining in, which might hang on and are interested of joining a friendly community. That's how I see things.

i agree both with bully and with nightmare, changing the name of it would not change any amount of players joining and etc, that's a fact, but by other side, giving it a community feeling like guild of friends would be nice touch.

I think anyone who doesnt know who you are will just interpret "zE palace" as -> "The palace".

Just so you know

it was the clan he ran - I used to be in it

=AS= Almost Skilled

In fact zE do you want that on your name still? A moderator can probably remove it for you if you ask very nicely

Ya I was trying to jog his memory a bit. Sounds like a good server name to me. Plus zE is the type that will help anybody if they need/want it. As long as they ask before they piss him off.

thehe Mikael, I think it was Pon who already said the same thing . Weird, I didn't think of that at all o.O But chances are fair enough that ppl read the title and encounter him on the server. zE palace and a player named zE.. I think anyone with an IQ above Paris Hilton's will come to the obvious conclusion .. Although many people don't read titles and motds at all...

Yeah, it would rlly be a good name. And it would add some nostalgic feeling for the once-been AS guys as well .
