In keeping with the orky theme to this site should this forum be renamed "Da gubbinz" or "Da worky bitz"?

While I'd personally love it we sometimes get really new users with questions in here, and want it to be easy to find. Thanks for the ideas though

I don't if it's a good idea as a new name might not have quite the recognition and familiarity that DakkaDakka has, thus driving traffic down.

Well at least people appreciated the idea and didn't flame it. Maybe call is nuts and bolts "(I.E. da gubbinz)?

Oh, I thought you meant the site name.

The site's name (i.e., Dakka Dakka) was inherited from Russ Wakelin and most likely was retained due to that name's recognition. The various forums don't really have an orkish naming theme (even 'You Make Da Call' was renamed to 'You Make The Call').

Ghaz, you almost gave me a heart attack! It's still " 40K You Make Da Call" and that'll only be changed over my dead body (or, let's be honest, yakface / lego's decision, but who's counting )

Hmm. I thought it was changed a few years back... Anyway, that's more of a Philadelphia thing (e.g., "Ard! Youse guys make da call!" is their way of saying "Alright. You may make the decision.")

I like 'em BTW.
