Tannin mentioned in another thread -
I guess my question is this. What can we do here that isn't going to make us just another "me too" hardware site? Somebody needs to come up with something really creative, something different, something that will make us unique.
Well I hope this idea does not offend anyone. If it does please forgive me in advance for suggesting it.
But as far as a "catchy" site name and theme what do you guys think of "The Apostles of PC" less the spaces of course. The Domain name is available.
There are 12 Admins so that brought it mind.
I like the "Apostles of PC" because it reminds me of "the apostles of rock and roll".
Of course we would risk some dullards who might think PC stood for political correctness. And we might also draw the wrath of the extreme Christian right.
Those of us who already have Apostolic Names such as Mark, Andrew, James etc are all set. The rest of us could take whatever names were not taken. I mean to use only when publishing on the site or posting in the forums. I don't want Judas though, we might have to wait a while to see if anyone qualifies for that one! Tony, as our fearless leader, Rather than being JC would be PC. No crucifixion required by the way.
No I have not been drinking tonight!
Articles submitted by Mathew, Mark, Luke, or John are bound to carry a bit more prestige than they would otherwise. And of course when PC speaks through his prose with words of wisdom, all will listen.
Moderation would be a snap. Who is going to back talk an Apostle when he speaks?
And of course there are other sub themes we could adopt such the ten commandments of micro processors, or the 10 commandments of storage, or this or that.
Ok, so this is one of those ideas which may or may not be asinine and juvenile. In that case you guys have a good giggle over it. You young whipper-snappers!
Of course, none of this has anything to do with site content. Which is most likely what Tony means above. Was there a dumb Apostle? Dopey? oh wait.. he's one of the seven dwarfs isn't he. Well if the shoe fits...
Dopey
