Before we became WebFlake

Before we became WebFlake, there were actually several site names/logos rejected by the staff. I am going to reveal them to you, and the reason they were rejected.

WebPhlake: This was Phun's original suggestion. Apparently, the letter 'F' doesn't work properly on Phun's keyboard. Either that or he is an idiot. The staff is still debating this.

Bierberlandia: This was Purple's idea. Honestly, we all sometimes wonder if Purple understands that this is not a Justin Bieber fansite.

Leech n Die: Justin suggested this one, and Hidden Ninja insisted on a Green Lantern-style logo and theme. We decided to go with something a little more subtle.

ScriptCraft: Jrock thought it would be a cool idea to offer scripts and Minecraft servers. He is currently modding the site from a mental institution somewhere in the midwest.

Hookers!!!: This was my suggestion. It almost won the vote, but Phun was worried that people would upload pictures of prostitutes instead of skins, applications etc. I had no problem with that at all.

Just to wrap up what you said, I want everyone to know that the naming process for an already large and growing community can be a cumbersome task. We wanted a name that reflected not just what we offered, but something that had character to it, which is created by the community as a whole. Ask not what the community can do for you, but ask what you can do for the community. In the end, I believe we went the right direction and we hope the rest of you feel the same as we do.
