It is now "SolarFlare Forums" instead of "Solarflare Forums" - the former title. I just noticed this change! I like it much better.

I really have nothing constructive to say...

The lowercase f was actually a typo.

You call THAT a drastic change?

Posted by Elim Garak (Member # 14) on :

Yes, the name gives the Forums style. Style defines the look, idea, connotations...

I suppose you're thinking if this is a drastic change, what was it that happened to the SFCR exactly one month ago, right?

Well, "SolarFlare" looks more stylish. There are name designers who get paid some 100,000$ for such an idea.

So, Vorlons smite people, and pompati smit people. Fascinating... :-)

Well, Tim, what's a silent "e" between friends, eh?

*grabs the smittage and smitEs Tim with it*

Posted by Elim Garak (Member # 14) on :

While we're onto my definition of a "drastic change" it's the Officer's Lounge on the main page and the Officers' Lounge (correct version, I believe) in here...

------------------
"Audaces fortuna juvat."
"Fortune favours the bold."

Posted by Elim Garak (Member # 14) on :

Well, now it says "Officers' Lounge" on the main page... I guess it was in the process of being changed while I was post-surfing...

Posted by Jeff Raven (Member # 20) on :

So...

Smiters will smite smitees with major smittage to make them smoten?

Posted by TSN (Member # 31) on :

Smitten, not smoten.

And shouldn't it be either smitage or smiteage? Smittage wouldn't be pronounced right...

Behold, the thread of smiting!

Posted by TSN (Member # 31) on :

*is unsmiteable*

*or, maybe, is unsmitable*

*doesn't know*

Suffice to say, I cannot be smitten. So there. Ni!

Posted by Sol System (Member # 30) on :

You cannot be smitten? Such a lonely life you must lead. I personally make it a practice to be smitten by at least three women a day.

Ah, but you misinterpret me. I mean that I cannot be smitten in the Vorlonian sense. *wonders if "Vorlonian" is a valid adjectival form of "Vorlon"* *decides it probably isn't, but doesn't care* :-)

Who's talking about singular and plural? I'm talking about nouns and adjectives... :-)

"*notices a drastic change!*" has now unofficially come to the same state as the last few of CC's interrogations... Hm...
