Forgie, Forger, Forgite, Smith

[Mark Johnson]

What is the best term for a poster at the Forge?

[Ron Edwards]

Hey,

I liked Luke Crane's impromptu "Forgie." Hell of a lot better than "Forger," that's for sure.

Best,
Ron

I'm still pushing for "Forgeroo."

G'dyap, pardners! Let's roll them dice & play them cards! Yeehaw!

[Peter Nordstrand]

C'mon. It's a Forgite. The evolution tree goes something like this:

Trilobite --> Troglodyte --> Forgite

Um... sorry

I'm afraid my wife has taken to referring to you all (not that she's ever read the board -- she doesn't game) as "Forgereenies."  But she doesn't really mean any harm by it.  She just likes to make it rhyme with "weenies."

I'm with Forgeite, though as you can see, I spell it a bit differently.

That was me.. Wow, they really pulled off the rules in this forum. I didn't think it was possible to post as a guest anywhere on the Forge.

Forgeoisie

I'm in awe.

Take one "we're too serious at the Forge to give out points" point!

Thats got just the right feel
A fun cross of 'nose-in-the-air' and 'tongue-in-cheek'...with a sophisticated spelling.

:)

Plus it made me laugh!

I think I prefer Forgeite, as it easily can relate to something unique -- never heard of a Forgeite before.

Forger is cool, and has some great denotation/connotation to go with it... i.e. someone who forges (random metal ore into slicing blades of steel!) at a forge... whoa!

But perhaps we should deem some other quasi-intellectual nickname such as Forgeoisie (sp?). I am not too keen on this one though...

Possibilities...

Forgen/Forgeon  (i.e. Briton)
Forgeist
Forgette
Forgetteer

Anyway, that's all for now....

[Valamir]

I'm rather partial to the Forgentsia to refer to a group.

[joshua neff]

I like "Forgetteer"--"Okay! Time for the Forgetteer role call!"

"Forgeling" sounds good to me.

Or going back to when it was the Haephestus's Forge (or however the diety's name was being spelled), I suggest: "Fester."

[Paul Czege]

I've pretty consistently used "Forgites." But I've been thinking of switching to "Forgistas."
