There's already The Petz Association, isn't there?

^Yeah, but this is different. Clover already pointed that out to me on RKC. :I

Not really. You might want a more original name?

@kay - Yup. It's found here: petzassociation.proboards.com/index.cgiIf you'd really like to have a website with the same exact name as another site, I guess that's possible. I don't know much about copywrite - I'd have to look into it, but it usually is frowned on to have a site with the same name as some one else's for the same topic. But I guess, it really is your choice....

^It's not the exact same name, and I knew nothing about the other one.

That doesn't mean you can't change it now that you do. And it's not the ~exact~ same name, but I'd be pretty annoyed if somebody made a site called "Self Show Control".

It's understandable that you didn't know about TPA beforehand. Considering I've been on hiatus, I don't know how long you've been in the PC. But TPA has been around for a while, and having a forum close to the same name probably won't work in your favor. We obviously can't make you change your name, but we're only advising you that it would be in your best interest to.
You don't have to change the url to change the name.

People don't look at the url - RKC's url is petzforum, not rkc. What they do look at, is the name and how the owner acts. A mature person would just calmly change it, whereas you're being trés defensive.
And then there's also the fact that Rebel (who owns the actual TPA) is an upstanding member of the PC, whom many people love and support...

^But see, I don't have to change it... It's good enough for me, and Rebel was on RKC yesterday and passed by my thread without commenting. I don't think she has a problem with it :I

Maybe you should actually look at Rebel's site. I don't think anybody is too happy.
If you were a 'nice' person, you'd think "oh, I don't want to seem like that!" and change it whether it's good enough or not.

But if Rebel actually cared, she would have commented on my thread :I

I didn't say you had to, so please don't assume I'm saying things I'm not. Rebel probably didn't see your thread as I'm sure she has better things to do than check every single new thread on RKC, and she owns and moderates TPA. I'm sure she would have something to say though, but what she would say is the question. I guess if she's al-right with it there's not much else to be said.
