name change?

[thalialunacy]

TEAM! It has been brought to my attention recently that the name of this comm makes it a little hard to find. Should we change it? If so, to what?

Like, URBINE4EVA? lol. If livejournal allows expletives we could go with fuckyeahurbine here, too.

Thoughts? :D:D

I'm easy either way (said the Cali boy to the Kiwi...), but it does cost to change the name of a comm, so if it's for people-finding-it-purposes I definitely think something simple with urbine in the title.

Oh yoooouuu. This is why i love you (among other reasons ofc) - you take boring things and still make me laugh. :B

Do you think a change is warranted or would bring people? I'm biased so I'm trying to gather opinions. I just want people to come and enjoy the boys with us!

I think the 'bringing people' is the crux here. I just don't know if there are that many folks to 'bring' anymore? On LJ anyway. I still love LJ with a burning passion, because of the folks I interact with here, and for the wonderful way it introduced me to fandom, and if I had my way it would still be full of people reading and writing and arting all over the shop. But I do wonder if those days are gone now - or rather have fled to the likes of tumblr, which...eh. I love Tumblr for the pretty and instant gratification of a good gifset or whatever, but I'm never going to figure out how to have decent conversations on it, or meet new people tbh. LJ just seems like it's been a little bit abandoned now, although all my faves are still here (*glomps you all*) and I'll be sitting here and chatting until kingdom come because of that, I'm not sure how many new folks are looking to get involved. Certainly on Tumblr I've seen LJ regarded fondly as part of fandom history and included in the sorts of posts that look nostalgically on

Well, that breaks my heart, but I appreciate your honesty. I think I'll keep the name as is, unless there are strenuous objections.

Aw, sorry bb. I didn't mean to make you sad. I think it's just one of those things - internet evolving and all that. But like I said, all my besties are still here - and while you lovelies are around, I'm not going anywhere ♥

[thalialunacy]

Rest assured that you keep me from being sad a lot. <3 <3 <3
