What was wrong with the old one? I liked the Nofriendo Entertainment System.
I guess it's because some people who hate fun complained.

So I'm guessing FYAD let the rights to the Let's Play name and likeness lapse, as I mentioned a few pages ago might happen

I just want to know if any Youtube Super Stars made LP threads when it was under FYAD ownership.

E: and also if this caused actual Youtube Super Stardom to occur.

I live a joyless life so serious answer time!!!!!!!!

LP is (or was and still is at times) a big draw for SA. So when you make it even harder to find, people don't come/stay. I don't think it was a business decision like that, but I mean, how long was the shelf life on that joke anyway? If it's between "weeks-old joke" and "name the thing what it actually is," yeah I get it.

I didn't really care for the name, but I didn't complain or anything.

But there's no description next to the forum when you view it in Games. How are you supposed to know what this place is? Let's Play what? Who? How???

At least name this forum properly, the previous name at least told you what this place is. Let's Play is just a nonsense name and will, frankly, never catch on.

Close-knit friends? Does this mean we can all be happy and love each other and stop to argue for several pages whether or not someone takes this whole Let's Play thing too seriously like it's any of our business to decide what amount of time and effort someone puts into their hobby? Because I'm all for that.

It's way too negative a name to encourage new growth and development in the community.

It should be Super Nofriendo Entertainment system.

We can start an LP group called the Nofriendo Virtual Boys.
There can be girls too, I don't mind. But I think you understand why we need to be called the Virtual Boys.

Really though the worst part about the subforum getting its actual name back is that new people don't have to scour the forums with a fine comb for it to post their lovely YouTube dumps so get used to that happening again. It was a good break in the Nofriendo Shamecube, rest.

It seemed to me that the third thing dragging the forum down was people overanalyzing people goofing around pretending to overanalyze a forum name when literally every other forum goes through name-change poo poo all the time without anyone caring.
