Not the best name for it

[Raul08]

Guys......the naming isnt the best way to convert the sheeple.

Not exactly the sanest sounding thing in the world.
Name makes it sound kind of out we're a bunch of lunatics

Neither is calling them sheeple, or referring to it as "converting."

If you don't like the name, but you like the idea, create a new site w/ a different name that you think doesn't "makes it sound kind of out we're a bunch of lunatics" and market it to your friends that way.

free market.

I actually have to agree. Most people will be turned off by how "melodramatic" it sounds. Granted, things truly are bad enough to warrant some serious melodrama, but most won't understand or accept that.

Still, I'll be wearing my white band proudly, as soon as I find some fabric...

 

[chiefsmurph]

I love the idea, but the name is ridiculous. Thank god someone else posted. I would be embarrassed to say I am apart of something with that name no matter what we were doing.

Livefreebands.com is available. Take it and run with it. You're free to spread this idea in any manner you like and so are we.

don't think it's going to catch on either...in my "market testing" of 30 across the board liberty lovers, noone is on board with it

 

[chiefsmurph]

...Or we can join up and try to change the way stuff is going. Just because I don't agree with 100% of the things a group does, does not mean that I have to go and run out and make my own group.

Just to change the name? Really? Sounds a little too exclusive for me.

 

[muzzled dogg]

yeah i dunno why yall didn't call ya selves abolitionists instead

Just to change the name? Really?

Let me get this right...

You don't want to simply copy the site, utilize the concept that is already developing for you, don't want to spend seven buck to register an alternative domain, but what to holler stop the presses in the middle of the project?

Just want to make sure I'm reading that correctly...

Sounds a little too exclusive for me.

If you choose to exclude yourself, that's on you. I think that's unfortunate, it's too easy to register a domain of your choosing and setup a site of your own.

Again, your choice though.

I run a site of my own. I know how easy it is to set this up. Its not the time and costs that are intimidating me from setting up my own group. I just don't think it should be necessary. Why can't I just voice my opinion in the hopes of changing something?

Who said you couldn't?

I think it is thought capturing. I was dazed by the name until I went to the website and saw the Roman quotes. Then it made perfect sense and I feel in love with the name and idea. It isn't really supposed to be marketed, as I see it anyway. It is just for those "in the know" to spot others "in the know".

 

[Raul08]

Well then its fine for private name, but the public name needs a new revamp.

And sorry, but making a new website.....just for a name change is kind of childish.

You should be able to recognize that the name is just going to alienate us, and make us sound like lunatics.
Seriously just change the public name.
Consultant your really about the only arguing that we should all make our own site.

Its just a bad name.....change it.

Hell, think about Iraqi Freedom or whatever the hell it is now. They change that name constantly because it doesnt connect to people.

We're just going to alienate people before they even get the literature. When there is a good chance of resistance to the literature itself, the name doesn't need to give a bad first impression.

 

[Karakia]

It's a bad name.

You don't bring slaves together by reminding them they're slaves, anyway. You tell them they're people.

 

[Jaykzo]

Throw my vote in for it being a bad name.

My honest belief is that a project with a name like that will never get off the ground.

lol, that's what they said about nov. 5, boston tea party, ron paul radio, that's what rph was told before ron paul riders.... get off it.

tell your snob friends to get over themselves, and maybe it won't be such a problem.

the people you're worried about being alienated from are doing f* all to change a thing, so what should we care?

this project is not aimed at them.

Seriously just change the public name.

lol, yes fuhrer.


well, no.


go to patriotuprising.com if you don't like the name, what is so difficult about that?

Consultant your really about the only arguing that we should all make our own site.

no actually, i'm not. check all the other threads, hell there are others saying the same thing in this thread.

Its just a bad name.....change it.

wow, who do you think you are, ordering others around on a project you've contributed nothing to?

srsly though, get over yourself.

We're just going to alienate people before they even get the literature. When there is a good chance of resistance to the literature itself, the name doesn't need to give a bad first impression.

It doesn't give "people" a "bad impression," it has given you and a few others a bad impression (obviously not that bad an impression or you wouldn't bother being here criticising... unless you're an ex-neocon and this kinda thing is just your M.O.).


Many more think it is great, which is precisely why it has, and will continue to take off.


If you're really concerned (i know you're not) you would be helping w/ patriot uprising. But you're not. Go figure.

It's a bad name.

You don't bring slaves together by reminding them they're slaves, anyway. You tell them they're people.

lol


tell that to this guy:

then why aren't any of you collaborating on the PatriotUprising.com site?

your inaction betrays your intentions


you have an alternative, but prefer to poo-poo this project and troll the forums over it.

get a life, get active or just get out of the way.

there's nothing really left to be said about it anymore.

a few don't like the name, many more do, there is an alternative for those who don't like the name slave uprising, get to work on it.

otherwise, there'll be no shortage of football games on to boob-tube tomorrow, save up your armchair quarterbacking skills for that.

I didn't want to respond to this.

But I have to.

I spent maybe 2 minutes on the forum, I heard about a new project called Slave Uprising, and I thought "yuck, there is no chance that anyone would take a project like that seriously unless they've been very well informed about it".

So I spoke up.

And now you say if I don't agree, I should just leave? and go away? because I posted what I thought?

No, I do not need to go get a life, or get active about a project that would be impaired from the get go, or go away. And god damn you witch-hunters, going around calling everyone trolls if they post something that doesn't sit well with you.

I'll happily support any project that I feel would have the ability to gain widespread national attention and support. And as long as the project goes under the name Slave Uprising, I'm sorry. I'd rather save money.

 

[slothman]

I agree it is a bad name.
I thought that the first time I saw it.
I think more people would stay from it with this name than other names.
That's one problem with this site.
They use bad or vague names.

I'll stay here anyway and just ignore words like that.
