Re-brand MC-Market

[FisherGee]

When I first joined MC-Market in 2017 I was slightly confused in the beginning. The theme and layout looked a bit "sketchy" and confusing. Now you probably don't notice it now because you're used to the way it looks. I think we should give MC-Market a more "modern" theme.

I also think the name should be changed. Although there are Minecraft related items on this forum, there are many other non-minecraft related subjects (crypto, gfx design, fortnite etc). When my friend first took a look at it, he was instantly drawn away because of the name "Minecraft Market", though when he looked further, he then realized he could buy fortnite products and all the other services. I think it's time for a more neutral name.

What do you mean by this?

It's easy to suggest "change this", but change to what?
If you're going to make a suggestion, you should have a suggested alternative for what you want changed.

I think it's time for a more neutral name.

Again, what name?
It's easy to suggest "something new", but unless you have a decent suggestion for what that new thing is, I'm going to have to disagree.

it's fine and organized enough for a forum this huge. I've seen worse

Changing the theme, I mean I'm no website designer so I can't suggest a theme to change. Everyone would disagree with my horrible design. But y'know, just less of the forum "topic", "subtopic" thing.

Name can be related to a virtual item marketplace like "[Censored]place", "GamingMarket" idk.[DOUBLEPOST=1537911420][/DOUBLEPOST]

This has been suggested many times since 2017 lol, you think people wouldn't have this idea?
It's just the matter of finding a good name[DOUBLEPOST=1537912894][/DOUBLEPOST]

I don't really agree, but a new theme/look would still be nice. This one is a bit dated. However I doubt this would happens for months if not years, the speed of staff/changes aren't exactly that fast.

They opened staff applications, anything is possible

I'd like to see changeable themes if possible, so you could use this theme, or the new one that they would have (if made). This would be useful because not everyone wants a new theme and maybe they like this one.

There are forums dedicated to hacking. Do they only have hacking? No. They've got marketplace and discussion sections as well. There's no reason why a website dedicated to one sort of product shouldn't be able to sell other types without re-branding if you're basing your reason on that.

I do agree with a different theme though. It'd be nice to go back to the older one or have another theme which is similar, yet has some differences.

I agree with a new theme, I think the more minimalistic and modern styles would be cool to "re-skin" the site... however, I think the name at this point is fine. It originated as a Minecraft related forum and is still heavily based in the Minecraft community.

 

[casket]

i agree yet disagree id like mcm to change names but i feel as it would lose relevancy / notability in a sort of way

 

[Crimvael]

Honestly if we change the design of the website it would look better, and make the default theme dark because my eyes want to kill themselves

 

[moon10k]

I'm personally fine with the name. But, knowing mick, I wouldn't be surprised if I woke up to "Mick-Market" tbh

 

[jxhdvn]

Maybe name it Market-Virtual

lmao there's alreadya website

 

[Ajdin]

Renaming the website would essentially be suicide considering MCM's largest source of new members is Google and SEO. Please don't suggest things you don't know much about.

 

[jxhdvn]

You don’t know much either.

LOL, you're talking to the guy that formerly managed the site.
