A little change is good every now and then, people. I would support a name change that kept the Foundry metaphor alive. The Break Room? Smoking Area?

Re: Change name back to Foundry Discussion?
foundry discussion is so... bleh. Anyway, unless it gets 50% + 1 votes, it suggests folks are open to change.

What? That's not what he meant. He said over 50% … which means basically the poll might as well be "Foundry Discussion vs. Any Other Name" (I AM NOT SAYING TO DO THIS).sailorseal wrote:Good idea, I am taking it's name offoaktown wrote:foundry discussion is so... bleh.

Please put Foundry Discussion and/or Foundry Discussion (Mostly) back up there …
