Hey, everybody! I’m back for one more announcement regarding our relocation to a new hosting platform, following up from our previous poll! Though the overall vote count wasn’t particularly high, we’ll still honour the decision, as amongst those who voted the majority was for Forumotion! It will be sad to leave ProBoards behind as it has carried us this far, but times are changing and Forumotion offers us a fair number of possible options. It just means there’ll be a learning curve to get used to how it works!
So, we wanted to bring forth the next discussion. With a new site and a new era ahead of it, BV will likely undergo a variety of additional changes, but one we wanted to talk about was a new name! The name Bon Voyage was a creation of the old guard of the site and has stuck with us ever since, and we don’t plan on removing that, but instead adding to it. After all, “good journey” is a strong name on its own, but we wanted to emphasise the addition of the Rainbow Mist!
We’ve come up with a fair few names internally, including: “Crazy Rainbow” and “Rainbow Star”, which both steer towards the 8th opening theme of the anime, just as Bon Voyage was the 4th. “Sailing Dreams”, “Dreamin’ On”, and “Rainbow Dreams/Dreamers” have also been presented, and we’ve also had “Before Dawn” to emphasise the comparison of the Rainbow Mist with an aurora (a phenomenon most visible in the darkness before sunrise) and the idea of the first saga of One Piece being Romance Dawn!
We’re not polling this one just yet, but we do want feedback and suggestions! So post up suggestions here and we’ll add them to the considerations! If you have a particular preference to a name that’s been suggested here or by another member, please mention it!
