I would love for the forum to have another name since we talk about other spiritual teachings and practices, and well, I have already said I'm not an Aber - although I appreciate them having been a step in my spiritual journey. :namaste:

Anyway, I am not asking for a change but just stating my preference, which doesn't mean I have a problem with the name at all. :p

Just sayin. :D

Wow... one second before I saw this thread I was thinking how I would like to have another name for the forum, since 'Abetalk' is not really covering what we're talking about here. And then I saw this. Funny.
I don't know a better name though, so I'll leave that up to you guys :grin:

I don't think anyone who has truly got their message is an 'Aber'(follower) , Abers are the ones that treat it like a church.....but that's their adventure....who am I to judge.
from my own perspective, I have not heard a single quote(in context) from Abraham that does not vibe with me.
I am not an Aber...I am a Simoner:heart:

I'm happy with the forum evolving to whatever it flows toward. Love you Guys!

LOL! You should. Why not?

What about loltalk? Or icanhasavortex.com?

I don't mind the name abetalk, because that is the similarity that brought us all together and the way other Abers can come here, too. But I may be biased because I adore Abe's teachings and resonate strongly with them, at least currently (though I can't see how I'd ever not resonate with them).

I like loltalk - but loltalk.com is already taken. Stupid parked domains. And thevortex.com is taken too.

I am really lai king - icanhasvortex.com XD

I also came up with: IallowYou.com, inMyVortex.com

The forum really has busted loose from being exclusively Abe-based. (Was it ever exclusively Abe-based?)...

------

I think the name should be changed to thoroughly distinguish this forum from that other one. We are not exclusively Abe-based here. That's the beauty of it! We welcome any info that encourages and uplifts and supports our desires to see this world as a place to have fun at whilst everyone else is Phase One-ing and freaking out about illusions.

------

So I think the name should reflect empowerment and fun and joy and appreciation.

I don't really expect any changes to be made. I am quite happy with the way it is here. But, if you've got a bug up your ass to tweak it about---and we all get one of those sometimes---you have my thoughts.

Exactly my thoughts and how I started this whole name change preference (of mine) at the beginning of the thread! :namaste:

And I might add Abetalk sounds limiting and I (and I'm sure all of you here) am limitless - also it subtly suggests to the guests, and even to us, that we're supposed to link everything we talk here to Abraham (like the 'other' forum,) but done on a subconscious level.

Again, my preference and perception. :namaste:

You make a good point here Princess. I think for us "seasoned" members when we link what we talk about to Abe it is because we all understand Abe-speak. It is a good basis for communication. But really, I find very little on this Forum that is Abe based. I don't think "we" are tied to Abraham at all anymore.

However you make a good point about guests. Sometimes the cat drags in LOA newbies. Secret-101 students who think this forum might be a fit for them cause of the name. They find out soon enough it is not but I think the name in this case does serve to confuse guests.

11:11 - it would help if you made the little blurb at the top of the page more descriptive for guests. How about:

The members of AbeTalk are freedom-loving explorers and former or current students of Abraham. But mostly we are students of life. Being the explorers that we are - we expand into new areas of thought and discuss anything and everything of interest. Being the freedom-seekers that we are - we have no forum rules. Expansion, exploration and freedom is what we are about. Enter at your own risk.

Hmmmm... You get my point. Maybe someone can come up with something better.

Ok - I've been real easy-goin' about this so far....

I think abetalk should STAY abetalk for the following reasons:
1) because it makes Esther & Jerry AND abe happy
2) because it pisses Jody & David off
3) because it lets people who wanna jump ship at the Nazi forum know where to go
4) because it's gooood for google rankings
5) because I really dont give a damn what guests think
6) because it's my theatre & I can have bowling balls if I wanna
7) because I don't wanna have to remember a new name
8) because it's irreverent
9) because I don't have time to be caught up in a retarded-ass title
10) because I just LIKE it. That's the way it started - it is what it is & it's just fine & dandy RIGHT NOW.

There. I got it all out. Phew! I feel better.XD

I agree with all of it except:
4) I don't give a damn about google rankings. This is mainly because I know it is alot more complicated than a name, title and serial number to get good rankings so its probably a waste of time to worry about it.
5) I would prefer we communicate more clearly what AbeTalk is about to anyone who wanders by.

I am NOT proposing we change the name of AbeTalk. When I was talking about making a title change I was refering to an HTML title. It is an identifier on search engines. My apologies to the non-technical. Leave the name AbeTalk alone and change the title, the HTML description which also shows up on search engines and the blurb at the top of the home page. Doing that would communicate more clearly what we are about. I like that.

Sounds like alot of work but I could do it in 2 minutes. How about you 11:11? Are you avoiding me? Here... choose one:

a) Even though I pretend to be a technical whiz kid I don't know HTML.
b) Even though I started this thread and asked for input on changes people would like to see... I really didn't mean it. I was just bored.
c) NDR is making it too complicated. It hurts to think.
d) I don't like NDRs suggestions and rather than tell her so I'll just ignore it and she will go away.
e) Who is NDR?
f) All of the above.

Couple of things here... This is what reads: Abe Talk is the instruction manual for life that has been derived through the unique experiences and perspectives of our members. We dropped the AH name long ago... And what we would like for both guests and members to keep in mind as the core values here is allowing and dialogue, of course, freedom of expression is allowed as well, lol, otherwise we'd be doing the same thing they did to us... but we are sharing ideas here...

I beg to differ Mariposa :heart:. You are talking about the blurb at the top of the home page which is OK but I think could be improved upon. But no biggie. I am talking about something else. If you google Abetalk this is what you will see in the first search listing:

What you see there is the meta title and the meta description. And I just think it would be nice to change it. But who the hell cares really??? Yesterday I cared... but today I don't particularly. I'm moody like that. :cool:

To what do you propose we change the meta title and meta description?
Well, uh... I dunno. Maybe I'll get inspired later. At the moment I am not. :ugh:

Seriously, :joxer: I like 'Abetalk'. I love Abraham; they most certainly still resonate with me and I can't imagine it being otherwise. Also, if it hadn't been for them, I wouldn't be here. I wouldn't have learned about so many things I have been exposed to here. I appreciate so much the people and ideas I have connected to (attracted) through this site.
