I'm trying to find a catchy slogan for my engine.

Thank you for voting.

P.S
I'm also open for suggestions about slogans I didn't include in the poll.

Why not go for the GNU meme:

NGE - NGE Game Engine

shogun · Post by **shogun** » Sun Jan 27, 2008 8:36 pm

Because it's stupid and only nerds find that amusing? ;)

NGE - Saving your fingers one project at a time!

NGE - When typing the same code over again just gets boring.

NGE - Start here, go anywhere!

NGE - Why start at square 1?

Definetly not the 3rd option, in case it doesn't actually work

I'm sure it will work but there could be bugs in it and you don't want to make arrogant assumptions right at the start

Some of the other suggestions sound quite good, but i'd ask, is it necessary?

Better than a cheesy "NGE - The Engine Built By Dreams and Candy Kisses!" like the ones to choose from.

I prefer the Irrlicht approach and tell me what it is exactly: "Irrlicht - Lightning Fast Realtime 3D Engine" only suit it to whatever NGE is.

Then again...

but i'd ask, is it necessary?

1. Cool
2. Awesome!
3. Very nice
4. Cute

Edit: While I was writing this post I see JP posed too and I agree with him about the 3rd slogan

NGE - Not 'Neon Genesis Evangelion'

Fantastic, these forums are turning into SomethingAwful...

Whats next, just random 4Chan images...oops, too late.

POWER-POSTING

Power-posting is when board members post 'empty' messages to the board, in order to simply increase their number of posts more quickly. Examples of power-posting are replying to a message with only 'LOL' or 'I agree', but failing to contribute anything further to the discussion. If you reply to a message, make sure you have something to say. Power posting clutters up the forums, clutters up the 'new posts' function, and uses extra bandwidth and server space. While we don't mind people using bandwidth to chat usefully on the board, we do mind people using it just because they want a more impressive 'post counter'. If you're not sure if you're power-posting, take a moment and think it over before you post. If all your post contains is a 'LOL' or an emoticon, it's a power-post. If it adds something to the discussion, it isn't.

Just to be clear, I don't mind witty one-liners from rogerborg, at least he puts some effort into it, but the "LMAO" posts are a bit annoying.

Now if only I had a forum police badge and a little cap.

My bad, you're right.. I'll keep that in mind next time..
It's just that rogerborg can make me laugh sometimes so bad..
Sorry. Oh and I don't do it for "posts-counts" or whatever you want to call it...

colinwilcox · Post by **colinwilcox** » Sun Jan 27, 2008 11:53 pm

Who the hell would care about post counts on this forum? Seriously... post counts only represent your e-penis size on crappy forums like IGN and whatnot.

I don't see anything wrong replying with just a "lol" or similar. It's just a shorthand way of telling someone you thought their post was funny. Taking offense or being annoyed at this seems a little out of place given that this forum is a means of communication.

No offense to any parties involved. This is just my opinion on the usage of forums, etc. I would put an emoticon here to express the lighthearted manner in which I intend for this post to be taken, but I don't like any of the ones I see.

NGE - It needs no slogan.

Dorth · Post by **Dorth** » Mon Jan 28, 2008 11:33 am

Seriously, if you need one, go with NGE - NGE Game Engine from Rogerborg, and shogun shove it. I always thought those self contained name are the best ^^

like The T.T.P. Project from Dilbert ^^

Irrlicht Engine
