When I first saw the name of the Professor board I thought to mysely "Self, Do you think they will change the name?" and I replied "why not ask?" so I was wondering if anyone else would like to see the Professor board name change. This is a little off topic and if the mods need to lock it I will understand but it is just one of those nagging questions. I would like it to change to something like, "The Lab" or "The Professor's Lounge", and was wondering if anyone else thinks somthing like that too.

I think "The Lab" would be an excellent suggestion, The Fish King. I like the sound of it and it almost tells who this forum's for.

Please, no one-line answers.
Well, "Pokemon Professor Program" is pretty stinkin' drab, if you ask me. "The Lab" is very good, though. Of course, none of the other forums have very colorful names either (exception: Indigo Plateau).

DMTM: Please do not answer this question in a poll-like, one line fashion, or I will have to report you to the moderators, who may be forced to ban you.
If we do decide to change the name, I think We should have a vote somehow (perhaps on the Professor List). I mean, a topic here may not be totally representitive of what Professors want.

I think pure has the right idea... make people a tad more eager to become a proffesor. XD
Seriously, though, I kinda like the sound of "The Lab"

Sorry to disagree, Yoshi, but IMHO the professors who frequent WizPoG should be the ones who should decide what the Professor Forum on WizPoG should be called.
...oh, and the request for a ban I just got in my email box? It wasn't for DMTM... ![[ROFL]](../tcg/graemlins/roflmao.gif)

'Mom: That occoured to me. On the other hand, if we used the e-mail list, we can raise awareness of the board and bring more people in. There are advantages and disadvantages to both sides.

DMTM: You are a bad, bad man
Name: "The Lab"? Is that the BEST you sorry saps can come up with? ![[Razz]](../tcg/tongue.gif) It's certainly better than what it's called now but...
"Wisdom Central" >=) That has a nice ring to it! Nah, we can STILL do better. Any other ideas? I say since we are important like the mods we get a name from the game like the mods(Next we will get your jobs ). I can't think of a good one though.

If we ever get a professor's deck forum, we're calling it the TecH Center.
The lab is a good idea tho...

Well I think the "The" in "The Professor's Labs" sounds kinda weird when you say it outloud... I would go with a condenced wording:
Professor Labs
That sound like we are some kind of organization or company

Another idea popped into my head.(OW) How about Elm's Lab or Oak's Lab. They are both places in the video game. MAPLE BARS FOR EVERYONE!!! ![[Bounce]](../tcg/graemlins/jump.gif)

I'm for something like Professors' Lab, as long as the apostrophe is in the right spot. Since there seems to be a great deal of confusion at Wizards about the correct usage of the apostrophe, I'll understand if there is a time delay while the WOTC grammar team is consulted.
