First of all, I would like to stick to Jabbasworld. Jabba pointed out some difficulties with that name, but I think the advantages of the name exceed them in number. I think the best thing about the name is that it keeps JW's growth in check. The ones that find the site and decide to stay around are the ones that really make a contribution. A name like supercar.net results in the sort of community supercar.net is. We wouldn't want that, would we? (If you do plan on going forward with this Jabba, then please pick a name that has that same characteristic!!!)
Another thing with the name Jabbasworld.net is that it is also a tribute to you, Jabba. You're the one who set this up and keeps it running (along with an excellent admin team). You are the one that pays for this fantastic place, so IMO it should bear your name.
If you do decide to pick another name I have some suggestions here:
www.wheelnut.net or www.wheelnuts.com
www.thoroughbred.net
www.carsanonimous.net (since we're all pretty much addicted here)

See what i mean?

In that case we may as well just re-name JW then...and we dont want that.
I want to take on www.ferrarichat.com as IMO that is one of the best Ferrari resources on the net...but I know we can do much better.
|
Yeah come to think of it that wouldn't be to smart, but i like the branching off the site though.
maybe?

www.ferrariBuzz.net
www.ferrariflyby.net
www.ferrarifeed.net

why should it be called ferrari anything? this is not a dedicated forum to ferrari. if that's what you want maybe you should go to ferrarichat. :roll:
|
you must not know how to read very well, read what Jabba wrote.

what about a mix between 'prancing horse' and 'raging bull'....so either www.prancingbull.net or www.raginghorse.net. That way its original while at the same time incorporating both brands.

Yeah, I like'em too, it has different meanings to it.
And it has a serious sound to it, but passionate.
