    The Lounge After dark just isn't catch enough. A bunch of Code Project stickers to whomever comes up with the best name. BTW - if programming questions are posted in the lounge should I move them here? If they are posted here should I leave them for you guys to savage?

    Sounds like it's time for a survey. But there's definitely a general thread: Lounge = drinking alcohol Purpose of this lounge is to allow for somewhat more vocal, seedier, nastier commentary than the (polite, kid sister friendly) lounge. In other words - dive, hovel, grotty grotto, squat, student hostel, student pub (actually anything to do with students and alcohol), pit, hole, hell, underworld, underground (or any other references to long-drop toilets or hades). So maybe we should be looking for a term that encompasses: Belligerents, wanton disregard for polite conversation, abuse of alcohol and students, vitriol, bile and crass humour. I'd start by getting everyone to name their local university campus pub.

    I just love Koalas - they go great with Bacon.

        For me an obvious name would be: The Closet i.e. a dark place children are (or should be) afraid of after dark. The monsters in this closet can be very real ;)

            Yeah, but then we'd get all these 'come out of the closet' jokes.

              In keeping with the pub lounge theme, we should call this place The Snug[^].

                    Here's a couple: - The Snake Pit - The Drunken Monkey (needs icon of monkey at keyboard) You should have some mechanism that politely moves a programming question in the lounge to its appropriate forum with a blurb in the email notification on where it went with the link. Maybe even a dropdown list on all messages beside the 1 to 5 ratings that readers can choose which forum it belongs in...3 or more reader choices for a specific forum moves the post to the forum?
