Approve or disapprove?

Announcements is now Indigo Plateau.
General Discussion is now Saffron City.
ALL GLORY TO THE FLOATING CLEFFA remains the same.
Music Discussion is now Goldenrod Radio Tower.
Sports Discussion is now Pokeathlon Dome.
TV/Books/Movies Discussion is now Jubilife TV Station.
Video Game Discussion is now Mauville Game Corner.

Game Corner is now Rocket Game Corner Kanto Safari Zone because people didn't like having two Game Corners.
Fan Fiction is now Canalave Library.
Fan Art is now Lilycove Museum.
Role Playing is now Ecruteak Theater.
Help is now Oreburgh Mining Museum.
Eterna Forest reverts to its original name, Viridian Forest.
Testing and Advertising is now Slateport Market.

Indigo League is now Ruins of Alph.
the mysterius lintaro's lair remains the same.

All of the other forums were already Pokemon-specific and based on in-game locations, except Psypoke Colosseum which is now Pokemon Stadium.

Admittedly, the old forum names were cooler in some cases, IMO. That being said, tying them more closely to the Pokemon world, which this does, is certainly a good move for a Pokemon site. Besides, I like most of the new names more than the old ones, so no reason bashing the others because they probably won't be changed (especially looking at this poll)...

AEPMT :mrgreen: ;) 8-)

I like them A LOT, except for these two:

Rocket Game Corner should be Trick Master's House (there is already the Mauville one)
Oreburgh Mining Museum should be Poketech Corporation

The mining museum is a metaphor, as in digging for answers.

I like the names, its a nice change.

Oh, I get it now! I still think there shouldn't be two game corners.

I'll be the first one to admit I don't really like the change, but it doesn't bother me that much. It's just something that I have to get used to.

Although I'm kind of surprised we brought back the name Slateport Market, does anyone remember this? :3

When I first signed in, and I saw the changes, I didn't catch on right away. But now I understand them and they're pretty sweet.

I don't really like the two game corners. It confuses me. The other names are ok by my book.

I like the names, and I thought they were nice and a bit more creative when we had them in the past

the only thing that put me off a bit when i saw they were changed is that I already assosciate Indigo Plateau and Slateport Market which what they used to be, but I think I'm one of the few people here who will still make those assosciations now? and they seem equally fitting to their new forums, and i'll get used to them.

Ruins of Alph seems much more fitting, imo.

this site would look sick with some gardenvior family line heading the top instead of slowpokes.

I still don't think that the pokemon stadium is a good name for a trading forum, Its still sounds like a battle forum
after carefull thought I think it should be called Mr. Fuji's House, Image
as Its a place for pokemon not wanted any more by their trainers(Or maybe Pal Park)
Also I think It should just be called the safari zone, not the Kanto safari zone, a in some games its closed.

While we're adjusting forums, I think it would be the perfect time to revive Psypoke Isle. Who's with me??



I approve of the name switches. It seems to connect the forums as a whole better, with a pokemon theme for all the names.

That's an excellent idea Serpentsounds! We could call Team Solar's forum "Floaroma Town!"

I'll start reviving them now.

I like the new names but I liked the old ones too...if I were to pick between them it would be close but I would definetely pick the new names as they aren't too specific to what the sections of the forum are actually pertaining to which I actually find to my liking & is unique to me on top of that...though I don't know what Mauville Game Corner is(as in which game this location is from) but it works so no matter there...

This would be pretty rad if it was reformed into an SPL (smogon premier league) kinda thing...
