No-one ever listens to Zathras. Quite mad, they say. It is good that Zathras does not mind. He's even grown to like it. Oh yes. -Zathras

Oh, you mean "Hard Light" instead of "Hard Light Productions"? :confused:

"General Discussion" was originally called, simply, "Hard Light".  "Fan Fiction and Art" was originally called "Hard Light Art".

In that case, I've missed the point once again. :nervous:

I thought Shrike was referring to that logo job last week.

Ah, no.  That happened after this thread was started, but only a short time after.

Wait a minute. I voted for the wrong option (I voted yes).

If General Discussion is renamed Hard Light, that would mean that the General Discussion forum is THE center of the site...


I do not need to explain why that could just be a bad thing.

Do you really think all the people who spend time working on other projects in other forums are gonna run to GD because of a name change?

Re: Bring back the Hard Light forum name!
My only real complaint is after two or so years, I still hate the main webpage. I want the old one back.  :sigh:

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill
