For those that don't know, DesuraNET Desuranet.com is the network that runs ModDB. We are currently thinking of a name change and thank you for your vote.
Desura is better in my opinion, gammaup is pretty "hard" to read quickly. If I was quickly scanning a page and read desura I would remember it more easily, and not forget the correct spelling.
I've always loved DesuraNET
Gammaup.com sounds pretty strange.
gammaup? Who came up with that!?
desura is much better imho.
How can you even consider gammaup? :) Desura is good!
Gamma itself is fun to say, but I agree with the desura logic, it rolls off the tongue better.
but why not just keep it moddb? much more cooler :D
Its not about MODDB.
Its about "For those that don't know, DesuraNET Desuranet.com is the network that runs ModDB."
GammaUp sounds way too childish and silly.
I place my bet on Desura.
Desura
Desura +1
in english i made a presentation about desuraNET
Desura is better, Gammaup doesn't have any flow to it.
Dasura is unique, gamma sounds silly.
Gammaup sucks.
Stick with desura.com IMHO! It's a cool sounding enough name and as they say... "If it aint broke, then don't fix it"! Tbh... gammaup.com sounds a bit naff to me! lol.
So yea... stick with Desura! ;)
I don't like gammaup (it's also hard to say). But if you're in the market for a name-change, I DO encourage thinking up more stuff, because the perfect name is out there somewhere. (Desura is decent, but not godly, so there's the optimism of finding something that just hits all the right notes for everybody... like 'Mod DB')
We've spent ages on the name, come up with several hundred believe me, and this is what we ended up on. Finding a name with a .COM that is still available isn't easy. Another name we shortlisted with luminolab.com
A good name is hard to come up with at times, DesuraNET sounds perfectly fine (and in a way computer related... must be the NET part) to me.
"Don't fix it if it isn't broken." ^_^
Hm... The supporters of GammaUP (That is the only way I can think to type it outside of a URL without it looking weird) seem to be silent...
Desura FTW, in my mind it gets the mental reaction of "Perfect! DO NOT CHANGE IT!!!" whilst "GammaUP" gets "WTF? NO!"
Of course that is just me, but Desura seems to have perfect flow/nifty sound.
We just thought "Gamma" was more gaming related...
I dont even know what gammaup is?
desura is catchier
Gammaup sounds like a tool that adjusts monitor brightness.
Definitely Desura.
Hmm... A name change?
Mod DB sounds fine to me.
