VGF: New Meaning or Old Meaning

Mario500 · 10-07-2007, 12:56 AM

Back in September, Video Gamers First became Video Game Forums. Which name do you prefer for the initials VGF?

**Valigarmander** · 10-07-2007, 01:05 AM

The original, fo sho.

ZeldaGirl · 10-07-2007, 01:36 AM

Video Gamers First.

Metal Man · 10-07-2007, 01:38 AM

Darn. No option for "I don't care."

'Cause it doesn't really matter--I always read it as VGF, anyway.

And where's the option for Virginian Goat Farmers?

**X-3** · 10-07-2007, 07:40 AM

The name changed? (Out of the loop)

Où est le Vigilante Groupe du France?

and "First"

Auron · 10-07-2007, 01:09 PM

Video Game Forums sounds way too generic.

***Ace Mercury*** · 10-07-2007, 02:49 PM

I know. We're one step away from "Xbox 360".

Typhlame · 10-07-2007, 04:59 PM

Poll fails without Virginian Goat Farmers option.

This Forum is more about the gamers than the games. I mean, when was the last time you seriously discussed a game here?

ZeldaGirl · 10-07-2007, 11:54 PM

If you look up at the left hand corner, it says on the big link "Forums.VGF.com." Now, it would just be silly to have VGF mean Video Game Forums... that would be so redundant.

The picture is also from 7 years ago.

It's redundant either way you look at it (as it hasn't been forums.vgf.com for nearly that long), so, I guess Shane figures it doesn't matter if it's redundant or not.

Video gamers first!

Somebody else took video gamer forums.

SephirothKirby · 11-12-2007, 04:59 PM

Yeah, because when I sign in, I see this:

Welcome to Video Game Forums Forums.

Which is kind of strange. But either way, Video Gamers First is better.

Lady Bane · 12-03-2007, 09:57 PM

mm.... they both a little cheesy, but since there is no option, i'd choose "Video Gamers First". At least it sounds better.
