| Ok guys and girls. This has been brought up and discussed a few times, and now I really think it is time to get some action in place with this and begin moving forward with it  Now for me, I would prefer a nice .com site, but if it has to be a .net or something to get a better name? What do we think? So playing around with the name in any way you can, could I ask that you come up with some potential site names for a new link to the forums and a potential new frontpage/fansite what ever we end up doing? So far there are two suggestions. www.Respectingaming.comwww.therig.comSo any more thoughts or ideas? lets see what we can come up with, then we can put it to a vote?  _________________ Author of a thread that spiralled out of all control......   |

| Hi ty! I checked the domains you listed and while therig.com seems taken, the respectingaming.com appears to be available. Just a thought, I use tools like this checkdomain.com , to see if names are still available, might be a good idea if anyone had a name suggestion to cross check availability. |

| I have just one problem with respectingaming.com - it's a tad too long. Research has shown people tend to not remember as clearly website addresses with more than 6 letters. (don't you love fake made-up statistics too?)
But still, my point stands. Maybe it's too long? _________________

| I agree with Grome, too long might not be a good idea.
Also, ww.riggroup.com seems available.

| I always hate trying to come up with domain names, all the good ones I want are taken. How about rig-world.com. |

| Schwen, until I read the notice that you were kidding I was convinced you were serious. (Seriously, don't explain your jokes  ) I don't know how you feel about this but I'd think the cleaner the better. What I mean is avoiding additions à la "rig-home", or "rigsite", or whatever. Alright, some of them are catchier than the ones I just mentioned. Apparently we're out of suggestions. I'd still favor therig or respectingaming (the pro is: at least people are sure to know what it's about before even getting to the website). Other than that, what do you think about rigcom.com (the com is for community). I don't particularly love it but it's kind of easy to remember and short. _________________

| Haha  Anywho... I guess we should take this to a poll? Doesn't seem to be much more of interest coming in... So far there's: - respectingaming.com - therig.org - riggroup.com - rigworld.com - rigcom.com personally I'd say the first two make the most sense. I'll leave it to Ty to make the poll. _________________

| I think therig.net was free as well? At least it was when I checked the other day. I would prefer a .com personally but can't have everything I guess, lol  _________________ Author of a thread that spiralled out of all control......   |

| Is rig.org or rig.net taken? We really aren't "the respect in gaming."
Spam, why would you rather be a .com out if curiosity? |

| pretty much every interesting one with just "rig" is taken.
.com is the most "prestigious", that's why. _________________

| As an FYI, I have purchased 'respectingaming.com' since that seems to be favored and with all the domain searching going on I didn't want one of those conniving domain registrars snatching it up in an attempt to extort us for it. If you all want to use something else, that's fine, but at least we know this one is safe  |

| For all that short is better, I also think that easy to remember is good. And "respect in gaming" is what we're all about, therefore its easy to remember. No question of "mmorig" vs. "mmo-rig" vs. "rig-mmo" etc. _________________ Aww, so cute! Wait. Is that... Basement Cat?  |

| No mmo in the name please, that just make it sound like "cheap" free based MMO websites.
RIG is short and all, but it doesn't really communicate well what we represent.
SWTOR-RIG is nice, but might make the website look SWTOR focused more than community focused. Although, with the .com, we can always pretend it's for community and not commercial...
So I put my vote down for SWTOR-RIG.com or respectingaming.com.

| Thanks, Arz! That's cool. Ty, I'm still on respectingaming.com, even more so now, since Arz already purchased it  Like Ald said - while short is good, if you add something random that doesn't really make you remember this specific community it won't stick as well. respectingaming is something you can't forget, even though it is "long". Otherwise I'd suggest you make the poll. _________________
