Title: Why do you exactly choose THAT name?
Post by: ~EXKillA~ on Sep 22, 2008, 05:40 AM
Read this befor go on reading:
this thread is not supposed to push down other servers, im jus wondering....



Its now my 70min school break and im looking through the server lists of RMS
and i saw that many servers with all kinds of name....

I always thought you choose a name because it fits the server and that you can see ingame why the server is called like that  ???

i mean Oo look at my server

Ecchi-RO (old name Porn-RO  ::) )

Explanation of the word Ecchi-Ro
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecchi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecchi)


we have choosen our name because we have 2 clients, one client got the normal ragnarok style and the second client got the special style where all classes are going to be naked (note: ONLY naked and nothing more).



and now i saw servers like....



Legend RO => whats so legendary about that server? normal server, with normal features, nothing what could be legendary

System Ro => whats the system there Oo every game got a system right?

Yggdrasil Online => lol when i saw this name i imagined everyone running around wiht yggdrasil style or maintown in yggdrasil place *could be a nice idea*

FeelRO => i thought: "WTF how can you feel that?" are they giving you electroshocks when a monster kills ya?

nja there are much more names which  have often no sense

like TaROt, MouRo, JustRo, Also-Ro, Chaos-Ro, Shining Ragnarok Online, Noob Fury Ro, Rated Ro





i really wonder why they have choosen that name ~~ i would never choose a name just for fun or just because it sounds nice...
only Names where players can say like in my server "thats really ecchi (sexy, hentai etc bla bla) here"



what do you think why they choose their names?

Sadly it is quite apparent that -most- server owners do not really put any thought into what their servers name is, and just go with something that sounds cool.

Most names aren't even unique anymore and are used over and over again (Chaos, Dark and generally any name that has anything to do with evilness or implied satanism).

Basically, admins / owners want people to look at their name and say "OH EM GEE! THAT SOUNDS SOO COOL" and not question what the story behind the name is.

yeah but what....

lets take an Emo for excample *rofl* want to play ChaosRo or DarkRo Oo and then he see no chaos or nothing dark

i mean i would expect from ChaosRo a story of chaos and explosions.... like burned prontera style, everything burned, burned grass, bloody water

and in darkro for excample only night, everything in dark colors ~~


kind of a mean thing calling something chocolate candy when there is no chocolate in at all T_T

You have to remember, though, not every name is going to have a solid-in-your-face-this-is-what-it-means name. You have to think hard with some names, because some servers use the name as theoretical symbols. I've come across a lot of servers who's names don't stand for a certain theme, but for a certain meaning, which in all honesty, seems a lot more promising than a server with a set theme.

You can't always look at things skin-deep.

I agree some names make no sense at all, might as well call it wtfRO xD

For our server we had a huge brainstorming session, I wanted to call the server LoveRO, wanting to make a cute server that would appeal to girls a lot or romantic people in general, there was gonna be cute little love porings and matchmaking npc, custom wedding, etc.... sadly the starting team (all real life friends) was composed of myself (girl), another girl and 4 guys, and the guys didn't like the idea at all, so that idea was quickly brought down T_T

After 2 weeks of discussion that was going nowhere, we finally agreed upon heRO wanting to explore the "heroic" theme, even if it's kinda common in most rpg. I brought forth the Allegiance Light VS Dark system and how we would make the server storyline revolve around that and finally we all agreed. So all in all I think our name fits our server even if the concept is perhaps simple ^_^

nice idea of LoveRO if we 2 were friends i would have helped you :D *im a girl too*

<3 my friends with whom i made the server had the idea of pron-ro ^.~ nja i only thought it was funny at the first place but then when we started doing the sprites and stuff it went to real stuff
Title: Re: Why do you exactly choose THAT name?
Post by: Pandora on Sep 22, 2008, 08:52 AM
I played pornro a little before, mostly for the lulz of the nekkid sprite, for doing some spriting myself I know it's long and tiresome to make whole classes, so kudos to you guys.

I wonder if LoveRO would have been popular ^_^;

haha wow, I actually thought everyone was blind when it came to the server name of the server they played at...I mean if you go on eA board or go look in the RMS server advertising board you will see some crazy names like...soap?RO and etc...I never understood why every admin had to make their server name end with "RO" like don't get me wrong or anything something like "heRO" makes sense since its actually a word, but names like teaRO ...blindRO ...likeRO......roflRO (there is a server like this...go check it out)  are just stupid since all they do is take a random word and stick...RO to the end of it >_>  ...thats why I decided to make mine different and get rid of this.."RO" on the end of a name fad...and decided to call it Ragnarok Saga ( this name took me 1 month to come up...me and staff had a list of at least 20+ unique names xD)

Cheers~

@Shinn:  Eh I don't get why "HeRO" makes sense to you but BlindRO/TeaRO/LikeRO does not lol,  Oh I get it "HERO" But still o.O
Title: Re: Why do you exactly choose THAT name?
Post by: Pandora on Sep 22, 2008, 01:47 PM
Well hero is a word so it fits in the name  ;D, as for all those other somethingRO servers well they follow the same naming convention as the official servers i guess: iRO (International), kRO (Korean), etc., but at least the official name stand for something, the country/area they are aimed at.

I found some images of my old character from other servers that I based the server name on (as far as style, I used the dark blindfold more often than the sunglasses - I only used sunglasses for the slot advantage):
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v295/Zairik/Ragnarok_Screenshots/trmt.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v295/Zairik/Ragnarok_Screenshots/save2.jpg

Here are the screenshots of pre-ScytheRO (ErikRO, my name, just because it asked for a name in the configuration). This is where I started to actually test out what I could do with eAthena servers, and what I could customize. Those other people in the screenshot are either clones or @autotrade extra accounts just because I got bored while local hosting (accessible only through the computer it's being hosted on, meaning no one else could connect because it wasn't setup to allow more people yet):

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...k/ErikRO/2.jpg
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...k/ErikRO/3.jpg
It wasn't used for ScytheRO, but that's how I started working with eAthena.

And here are a bunch of old ScytheRO screenshots:
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v295/Zairik/ScytheRO/

Here are some screenshots of the first ScytheRO Customs:
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v2...theRO_Customs/

A slideshow from a long time ago that would actually be just as useful today:
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v2...1175284988.pbw

And just my theory but this is probably one of the main reasons the community grew so fast:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...theRO/ssx1.jpg
The main areas were a lot smaller making it feel like there were more people than there actually were so it gave it a nice feel. Eventually we out grew that small area we called the Control Center "cc".

ScytheRO started February 22nd, 2007.

ErikRO was pre-ScytheRO, I worked on it about two months basically using it as a test server before I started a real one. Dakota (aka Caboose) at one point hosted ErikRO, this was before Scryed started hosting. A lot of previous guildmates of mine were the first ScytheRO players.

The same day we started hosting with Scryed we started with a clean installation of eAthena and I came up with the name ScytheRO, based on my "White Scythe" character name and guild of the same name from other servers. The "White Scythe" guild had four total guilds with over 250 active players, I ran the main one and had the other leaders report to me as we did weekly guild events and decided what to do within the guild. We still use the original guild emblem for our staff guild as I did back when I used the "White Scythe" guild name.

names names names =o
to me a name is nothing more then what to call it, what to identify it by basically

but i also use names for another purpose, to tell me something about it XD
if its named like fluffly bunny RO i'm going to expect it to be cute =3 (i'd love that name btw)
its ifs name like feel RO i dunno i guess i'd expect it to feel like the original RO
something like sycthe RO i guess i'd expect to be fast pace and scary XD

i always thought there would be a mass of those scythe effects NPCs oO

you know

just without pigs Oo

like a scary ragnarok game :) lots of death scythe effect npcs and you could have an aura which looks like that and so on :D

I think scythe means you'll get scythe effect? XD

for me...name is...some ways to figure out a server...example...if there's a server named loveRO...I would expect that all things on that server related to love/heart XD

Well, i've worked for many servers sofar. Most of the positions I have just resigned because of idiotic admins who do nothing, are corrupt, or (very) improfessional. It's time to show your hate to those servers, it's time for, revenge.
How are we taking revenge by just creating another one of thousands of servers out there? Actual change. Thats our non-violent revenge. Putting those servers to shame who call themselfs a true revolution.

With my server it was just a matter for finding the right word, I knew I was only going to use only one word with the "RO" suffix but it was not going to be a common word (love, hate, fight, attack, funny, silly) or any really long or really short word.  It was always going to be typed roughly like XxxxxxRO I just didn't know what exactly it would be.  I was picky about the name, I'm really not one to give "silly" names to something I'm serious about.  I always preferred Scythes because they were unique and uncommon weapons.  Not so much into the whole Grim Reaper or Death thing, though I do think the Shinigami personification in anime is interesting.  It's just the weapon itself that has a distinct style of its own that I like it.  They can be drawn all sorts of ways, not just the straight boring stick with a curved blade on it.  I'm sure video games and Google images have plenty to show for scythe designs.

If the owner of a server is going to act immature and do things flippant and isn't serious about making a good server then it will fail, assuming it ever gets off the ground by even starting.

like [the 14th alphabet]RO? *run away*

why there isn't any server using size as a name? (ex: littleRO, bigRO, enormousRO? xD)

Alot of servers choose names on Marketing Strategy or well in the world of private servers, Recruitment Strategy.

LegendRO sounds cool, So why not join it? (not downing the servers name or the server)

There is plenty of reasons to Name a server that specific name.

Our Server is called ROnin Lives. It works because of our story.

Research the Story of the ROnin Samurai. After reading about them and reading our story on our site you will understand our name.`

If they're trying to go for market strategy while creating their names, they're not doing a very good job.  At least not imo.  I want a name that represents the server. Its silly when they name a server "LoveStoryRO" when the main focus is PvP and WoE.

Title: Re: Why do you exactly choose THAT name?
Post by: Scars on Oct 29, 2008, 12:33 AM
It's not about the name, its what the name represents.

Anyway to have my opinion/comment on first post.


Legend RO => Lack of creativity

System Ro => Maybe they get their name from SIP, or they trying to say they have a solid system, say no bugs, no lags, using excellent host, I guess.


Yggdrasil Online => Yggdrasil is a term/word rarely use, but quite common in RO, so maybe you can say Yggdrasil= main Ragnarok item= represents Ragnarok, in that case is show some sort of "veteraness" (made up the word) about the game. 

FeelRO => Matches their slogan "Can you feel the balance" you can almost say balance server=will get highly populated in these days. I give my thumbs up for their name.

TaROt => Maybe they want to mention "magical" which to them it means server with lots of surprises that would impress the players. and Ta"RO"t have "RO" in the word.

MouRo => Maybe Mou is a name of something or some one, I don't know and I can't be bothered looking it up.

JustRo => Since there's hundreds of private server with names trying to be catchy or cliche, JustRO represents simpleness and further simpleness.

Also-Ro => Same as above, maybe since there's so many private servers they saying "Just another one" Weak name really, you should always try to stand out from the crowd, at least JustRO represents simpleness, but then again maybe "Also-Ro" catchy to some people. But not me.

Chaos-Ro => Strong word, chaos, but again lack of creativity.

Shining Ragnarok Online => Shining=Stands out. Maybe they want to say they stand out from other server, I personally prefer "Shiny" for them, but I guess you get the idea. Not too creative either.

Noob Fury Ro => Maybe since there's tons of noobs in Ragnarok, or any mmorpg I guess, "noobs fury" is like saying the noobs gets "mad" and competitive and maybe they start to play well I guess? Creative I say.

Rated Ro => I guess in this case they want to say their server is "rated" or known as a "good" server. hopefully, but again a name is just a name. I don't find it special.

Again, this is all my guess/opinion/what I get from the name, if I am wrong, I don't care.





As for my server Burn RO, I was stuck with the name, I was the owner behind the scene, my co admin picked the name, then in short, he scam/corrupt, get fired, I took over. Though I am quite happy with the name, and I like the slogan we have, "Where the heart burns to fight" one of my GM came up with it.

Since our server is high rate, its all about PvP, WoE, side from questing, and we have weekly tournaments and many other PvP competition etc. So "burns to fight" really suit us I dare to say.

Just my input in a topic I find very interesting.

Cheers.

Edit: I would like to add, I take off my hat to the name HeRO and the server. "HeRO server" represent being heroic and/or starting your legacy in the server, if I remember correctly, suits it server theme. Not to mention it has very interesting unique features too.

Again, cheers.

Post by: InFlamesWeTrust on Oct 29, 2008, 01:31 AM
I don't like any of those names, and I don't think any of them aptly represent what they're server's about.  And I can't remember correctly, so check me if I'm wrong but, isn't heRO's gears based around a light / dark theme?  I don't think heRO represents it very well.  Unless of course there was a dominant person in the server or maybe if it was plural...  But that's just silly talk. Clever word play none-the-less.

Burn is decent.  At least the slogan matches and you have a similar theme.

Thanks ^_^

@InFlamesWeTrust yes we have a Light/Dark hero Allegiance, I think it still fits the heroic concept very much, players can be heroic for either side. I guess we could have called it "heroes" with plurar, but singular fits too imo, it represents how everyone starts with the potential to be a hero.

Anyhow, I'm not saying that heRO is an overly original name, it's quite a general concept, but it fits what we try to do with the server.

the server i helped set up and admined for a while, was called Ragnarok Crusade Online. and we called it that w/ the idea that i was writing a story called the Ragnarok Crusade. which would also mean Chaos Crusade. it was going to be the full storyline behind our server and we were going to have story quests and npcs in it.

we put thought into our name. i wanted to call it Full metal RO cause i wasnt considering my story, i was writing it as a FanFic.

I get to quote Shakespere now.

What's in a name? A rose by any other name would smell just as sweet.

This statement is crammed in here to keep the topic on track
And on a side note LegendRo does have a really uncreative name but it's still an awesome server if my memory serves me. I liked that you could use a command called @ss and punch in an item ID to see if any vendors were selling the item you punched the ID of in, where they were, how much they were selling it for, and (if applicable) how much the last one was sold for. Never saw that command on any other servers. But yeah that name is so stick a fork in it it's done and used.

I named mine a bit different,

IoRO

Inect Orim Ragnarok Online.

I guess I might have to sit down later and iron out, hammer out, and do a bunch of things.

The name originated from a series of books I'm writing, none of which got passed page 80, (non double-spaced.) many were trashed.

Inect Orim, refers to a place of energy, referencing it to a place, instead of the plane. Inect Orim is recognized as IO. Which is the plane of energy, which holds all material planes in the story, when you refer to a "Planet" a "Dimension" a "Town/City/Country" or even, "Timeline" as a Inect Orim, or IO. It means a place that is flourishing with lively beings, or energy. A flow of mana, and magic. Inect Orim is a word derived from a language that I'm working behind the scenes while I'm working on my stories.

I guess, once I finish working on this panel, I'll write a big introduction story, and create some events and history. Maybe expand some things. A Server with it's own story is very appealing, it was thanks to this topic that I even thought of it. You guys may not like my name, but the name means the origin  of things. And to me, this name well, appeals to "ME".

Io is a word derived from Katina, I had no knowledge that it was also a moon >_>

Well bpRO means BloodPact RO.

It originally came from my guildname (I being the GM) from a server.

We really had great WoEs out there.

BloodPact also means being one, being bonded, pact by blood. :)

Is it just me, or that doesn't make any sense?

No offense, sincerely asking base on grammar/language wise.

When I was a kid I tried writing a book but never finished xD
There were people that were fighting for the survival of the magical secrets of their race and the last city where the secret was still alive called Lumina. This name resambles to light which remembers me of knoledge. I thought it was a nice name for the server.

AlphaRO was named after our desire for a new beginning. Unfortunately it came a little prematurely due to leaked information, and ... get this.. we're still in developement stages xD But anyways yeah the name AlphaRO came from as stated above the desire to become something new. Start from the start, from 0 members and build something beautiful.

The subsections of AlphaRO, Delta, Epsilon and Omicron are simply reitterations of their placement in the greek alphabet as related to their rates. Alpha being first, Delta short after, low mid rate, Epsilon a higher Mid Rate then Omicron the high rate. =)

I don't mean it literally. xD

Just for a long time, just as long as I don't have you as a Dev, since you completely destroyed my ex-Admins server. (Yoko, ForgottenRO's MR)

Bravo.

well our server is named SpartansRO, i dont know why, maybe because the intention of the server is all about PvPing.
but as you can see, there are lots of private servers that named their server as something that does not describe their server. XD
