losersonbikes .... lol. It has that unforgettable quality that's for sure, but just hearing that name seems like something totally different than what the board is about.


Boofo, That one has crossed my mind, I even checked into the domain.

Here's my dilemma, because I really like freecyclersunited. .... it can alsobe abbreviated as FU

The people who are part of the freecycle groups now don't appear to be forum users, that's fine, but alot of them(75%?) are not too keen on the idea of another website/group(they think it's a group of some kind) for freecycling where the same people can be part of "yet another group" and post the same stuff somewhere else, increasing duplicate emails with nothing new.
What I'm doing can fix these problems, and open up a whole community where a yahoo group can not.....but again, most of these people really know not how to use extra features of YG.

However, alot of these people also really like the idea of a place to find out about stuff going on in and around town, quite frankly so do i because you can't find jack shite about what's going unless you already know about it.

If I target a name towards freecycling, I'm worried people will get the wrong idea about the "local database" let's call it, and it will have less interest because people don't want to be part of yet another freecycling group with the same crap....etc.

If I target the name towards local goings on, events and what have you, then the freecycling aspect may suffer, which I don't want to see because as I say, a forum could easily solve a LOT of the problems people complain about and be a much better venue for the freecyclers(while giving them other things to complain about lol)


and that's why/where I'm stuck.
