Rename 'SF Open Government' to 'Lord of the Flies'

[Xerxes]

Before brushing it off as another stupid idea, think about it :) It may be a superficial change, but I like it and think it could make a positive difference.

Agree/Disagree?

[sargentlard]

might as well since it is another flame war forum.

[Xerxes]

Nothing to do with any flames wars. This might actually be a good thing.

I want it renamed for the sake of the title. It's flashier than 'open government'

[EI_Sparks]

No. I mean, it's a humourous reference, but the point of the open government forum, unless I've misunderstood it, is to try to do better than Golding's characters.

[Xerxes]

Alright, I admit - it might be over the top. Just testing the waters here :)

[Stryder]

I had to go with a negative response to this one.
I don't think having any more predators in the forums would be a good idea.

[Xerxes]

looks like the idea is catching on..

[ElectricFetus]

How about a compromise: instead of “power to the people” you put: “lord of the flies”

[Xerxes]

Nah, its a stupid idea anyways. Just a whim

[hypewaders]

Shuttup, Piggie. :eek:

[Xerxes]

hmm...looks as though this idea is gaining in popularity :m:

[Ozymandias]

It's a good idea...as long as people still understand what this forum is for, and don't turn it into an imitation of the novel. :D

[Xerxes]

well, the poll is over. Looks like we lost.

[Ozymandias]

Aww. That's too bad...I was hoping it would win. :(
