dang it! what bs this is. anyone know how RETARDED it is to have to explain to someone when they ax: "but why does it say Florida? cause were in Atlanta."
Scott i dunno what you're smokin now. no WAY on Fla/Southeast.
Its redundant. (because fla IS in the southeast)
thats like having the Atlanta AND Georgia forum. see how it doesn't follow structure?
1. Southeast
or
2. Florida/Georgia/Tennesssee/Carolinas
which looks better? |

| SOUTHEAST definitely takes the wholeness of it all....and isn't that the point?:eyespop: |

What I am completely against is any proposal to separate the forum. It’s ridiculous on so many levels. First of all, Swamper will never go for it. Secondly… there’s a separate forum because both sides refuse to compromise? – Weak.
Personally, I think everyone voted NO feels threatened that “their” forum is being taken away. I have yet to hear a valid logical reason why it shouldn’t be renamed to just “Southeast”. All I see is blind loyalty. Even the argument that the forum should stay Florida because they get the most parties is bad logic and I’ll tell you why. Is the reason why Florida appears to have so many parties because they have an entire forum to themselves and people feel more comfortable posting under it? NC, SC, and GA combined have the same population as FL and that’s still excluding all other states east of the Mississippi. If you’re going to vote NO don’t insult me by giving some quasi-intellectual reasoning as to why.
Finally, I think we're forgetting the point of all this is not to decide what's a better looking name but to avoid confusion and include a wider range of TAs. Yes, FL/Southeast is redundant but it serves the originally intended purpose. It’s a compromise I can live with. |

As I told Scott and LeeAnn in the midst of my drunken fury... I voted... No. Why? Because I'm a spoiled brat, and most of the big events happen here anyway. ULTRA, WMC, all the DJs go to Space, and we throw tons of FLTA meetups whenever we can. ATLTAs rock, I love you guys, but as I said, I'm a brat. :stongue:
Though, Florida/Southeast sounds fine to me. I doubt I could ever say I was a SETA though... FLTA for life! |

We all just need to come together..... if we're going to hear the music together, we should try as much as possible to be as one...
hell...if I wanted to be separate...I'd be asking for my very own, state of the art Puerto Rico TA forum....PRTA! BOOYA!
reality check: not gonna happen.
SETA! vote yes ;) |

ohhh frisky are we :D,... dude,.. im just pushing buttons like i said many posts ago,... again i do repeat that i care less what this forum is called,... its the people and music not a forum that makes us "together",.. the forum is just a means to bring us together,... i feel as if we are all passionate about our answers b/c we all love this forum so much b/c it has brought us all so many good friends and memories so regardless of what its called that wont change any of that,... so call it whatever anybody likes and we can just use the FLTA, AtlTA, or SCTA, or whatever TA to just signify us personally... |

| alright, so, this thread has been dead for a little bit, and the vote is tied at 36/36... so i guess this means we can change it to Florida/Southeast now??? ;) |

tied at 36?
i only count 4 NOs man! read Scotts post. nobody has made a no argument. this blows. I was only saing to have the ga/fl/tn/sc/nc vs southeast to show how long the name would be if we didn't have southeast as the name.
and NO, the vote was either Florida OR southeast. never mentioned fl/southeast. if you want a comromise redo another poll.(and make it by cities if youre gonna get specific)
and changing it to southeast is just for the forum. nobody's gonna be a SETA. we're still gonna have our own FLTA AtlanTA whatevers...
and whoever said "cause all the DJs come to florida" puh-lease. maybe 2 years ago. check the facts. just cause they DO come to your city, DOESN'T mean they dont come to ours. |
