I noticed on the frontpage that the title suddenly become Reloaded Abandonia
on the forums it is still Abandonia Reloaded though.
Why the name change ? It now sounds (might be inspired by the AR way) that there are more reloadeds. Is there some surprise for us in the making ?
moi.

Yeah just noticed that now, was on last nite and maybe it was already there or not, but yeah think it may be because generally like AJ said we refer to the site as Reloaded most of the time.

I (to) saw this after it was done already. Kosta refered to it as rebranding. I thought he discussed this with the admin crew of AR so I didn't pay much attention to it. Besides from the fact that it would probably mean a new logo has to be made for the next version. Which I like.
My opinion is:
either we stick to Abandonia reloaded, cause that sounds a whole lot better
or we call it Reloaded, make it sort-off independant and just refer to Abandonia in the disclaimer and maybe in a pay-off line beneath the logo.
It both has pro's and cons, but I'm to much at work to make a list of them.

Well I don't know if my word really means anything but I suggest either sticking to the old one or just Reloaded, meaning that I aggree with Maikel.. I really don't know the small details between Abandonia and Reloaded (as two separate sites) but so far I like Reloaded's general feeling a lot more.. No offense towards anyone though Both have good reviews and games.

Shortly Aramatheus: Abandonia has abandonware, we have freeware.
I'd like to see us Reloaded, but for some unnatural, inhuman, possibly still atavistic reason I want to stick with AR. So, my suggestion, in all its madness, is that we are officially Reloaded, but we keep the AR as abbreviation!
Quick edit: And Aramatheus, everybody's word means something!

Well that I DID know It's just that I don't understand the inner relations between Abandonia and AR - I know Kosta has something to do with both (the high über-dude perhaps?) of them.. I mean, if I say something bad about Abandonia will I get 'd over here or something? And stuff like that

It is a little odd at the moment - as pointed out bu Juni, the only problem with switching to just Reloaded is that it doesn't abbreviate easily, and also that it doesn't make much snese without being something reloaded.

Well have gotten used to saying AR all the time, but either or scenario could work with just being called reloaded and or sticking with Abandonia Reloaded.
