<div class="IPBDescription">Help me come up with a name for my fansite</div>Hey guys,

I am into webdeveloping and already have about 30 sites. I played and still do play ns alot on my spare time so I though I might as well create a fan site for it now that it is nearing launch.

Got any cool ideas for a domain name?

I was thinking about selection-natural.com but that just makes it lame doesnt it?

Post suggestions here! Also, if your into contributing with fan art or fan fiction as I am, let me know and I can publish it once the site is up.

If i find a good name the site will be up and running within a day or two.

Thanks!

Edit: grr, typo in the description, can a mod fix it by any chance?

    Funny, especially the about blank part.

    No im not 12 <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" /> Im 23 and do this for a living.

    Already got a nice design picked out for it.. just lacking that domain name.

    So how much profit are you willing to share, if we provide you with a name?
    After all we are doing your work here, if you do this for a living.

    I am not making the site to make money on it.

    I detest advertisments on fan sites, it just looks crap.

    This is a project I want to do creatively and you are welcome to contribute but I will not pay for ideas on domain names.

    I would pay for someone willing to do creative work though, thats worth paying for.

    Got suggestions or ideas?

    Email or just post in this topic: semarketing07@gmail.com

    And just to make it clear, I make websites for a living, but this is not intended to be made in order to earn me money, not at all. I just mentioned it so you dont think im a 13 year old with his first computer wanting to do a site, getting ideas and then nothing happens XD.

    Sorry, but I can't think of anything better at the moment :-(
    (and we don't even know if NS2 will keep the names from NS1)

    Yes I know it might not.. hence it has to be a catchy name <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" /> I was looking at readyroom.com but its owned by someone else so I sent an email asking if it was for sale. If its not 30000$ then I might buy it and set it up there.

    any site that doesn't have dashs in it.

    I think gorgeshideout.com would be cool

    I'm not sure of a good name for you, I'm terrible with creative naming, but something relating to everyone's favorite life-form (who doesn't love the gorge?) sounds like it could be a good place to start from.

    ns2vault.com/net - suitable for guides, downloads, information etc

    ns2player.com/net - good if your intentions are to gather players, match making etc

    There are a number of names that comes to my mind, but i dont know what your intentions are with this site?
    What do you want it to be? a community or a download page? are you going to form a clan? will you be making maps?

    Please, give us some more information =)
    Names are very easy to come up with, but its hard to find one that suits your intentions without knowing what your plan is =)

    hiveminds or hivemind is pretty cool.
    comchair.org
    ohnoes.com
    scorpianthathovarswithoutflapping.com

    btw, does anyone have a link to that?

    edit:

    gorgehideout is good <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />

    Brilliant ideas!

    I especially liked hivemind and hiveminds.com .. sadly both names are taken.
    InfantryPortal.com looks like it might be the one but I have not settled for it yet.


    www.ggwehaveno.com fantastic... but it may be a bit cryptic for newcomers to the game <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />

    Please, more suggestions, they are great so far.

    Ok, so saying I do this for a living was perhaps a bad choice of words. My point was to say that I knew what I was doing!

    My other sites are in Swedish and Scandinavian languages so I will not be sharing them here <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink-fix.gif" />


    Anyways... I think I have a winner.

    LOL, guess we were right. We'll seen then.
