Positivity sub-forum
 
Hi all.

Following on from this thread we think merging the Recovery room and the Trophy room into one 'positivity' sub-forum could be a fab idea. We're just a bit stuck for a suitable name. :laughing: Good people of SAUK, do you have any suggestions, possibly based on our current room-themed names?

If you're merging the Recovery and Trophy rooms then how about the Progress Room? Obviously this would be a great honour for forum member Progress, possibly they could cut the opening ribbon? :d

^ Hehe, nice.

^^ Mmm, celebrations. :yummy:

Some of my (utterly daft) suggestions:

Conservatory? positorium? giggle station? sunshine cafe? lols-a-plenty.com? rofl room? sunny side? (always look on the) bright side of life? the up side? feel good zone? :smug: :laughing: euphorium? the attic (because everything is up - kind of an anti-basement)?

You can see why we need your assistance!

^ :laughing: The Attic does sound a bit dusty and horrible (and/or creepy).

Penthouse doesn't really have the right connotations. The Observation Deck? :d

:laughing: No it probably doesn't, which is a shame I think. :d

I know you were joking but as you brought up 'negativity':

Specifically, this is a forum:

-for us to tell our stories and receive support from people who understand.
-to vent about SA related problems.
-to give hope and inspiration by relating positive experiences.

-to share information about medications and therapies.
-to discuss our feelings in an open and supportive environment.

There's a real need for people to be able to vent and be negative, without feeling judged for it. There is also a need for people to be able to spread joy, hope and general loveliness. Both are crucial, different people respond in different ways and need different support. Some need a safe space to vent, some need to see there's hope, some need constructive, practical advice.

The positivity sub-forum isn't an attack or criticism of people being negative - just a way of fulfilling a need that isn't currently met by either the recovery room or the trophy room.

:embarrass: I sometimes feel a bit self conscious when the word is used in posts. I've occasionally wondered whether to change it but I'm not really a fan of name changes without good reason - seems a bit sly somehow. I'd definitely have to change it though, if it was the name of a sub forum.

I've never really understood the distinction between the SA and recovery rooms.

Possibly because after the Basement its normally the other place where the bodies have been stashed :tongue1:

(It is a logical suggestion based on the names for the other sections though)


The Positive Charge, Posativia,

they kinda suck though :laughing::beatdeadhorse:

I was trying to think of rooms that let in light...sun room? I dunno,`tis tricky. Although if the Trophy Room is going to be a subsection in the new room,I sooo vote for it being renamed The Trophy Cabinet. I ty :tongue1:

...which we would have them change their name to "Nextasy" so we could use the name Euphorium, which sounds like one of these -

Re: Positivity sub-forum
 
i think we should call it



The Next Level



just so we can see how soon it sounds previous level

Hokay - some fab suggestions. I'll sort out a poll 9pm tonight(so you still have time to get your suggestions in - you can PM them to me if you're not comfortable posting them up here), which will run for a week. One member, one vote as usual - votes from multiple accounts will be dismissed.

The Accomplishment

The Epiphany

The Flourishing

The Pyrrhic victory (because even if it comes, it comes at such a cost) wow that's sooo negative.....how about "the orgy"

and is it just me or has anyone else started to like....."The positivity sub-forum"

Kevin Hodge 20th January 2013 19:11

Re: Positivity sub-forum
 
i'm gonna suggest calling it "Movin' On Up"

its message is highly relevant, and its mixture of colloquialism and blandness ensures that while noone may actually like it, it represents the best possible compromise for everyone nonetheless :smile2:

Cheeky bump, in case anyone hasn't seen this who'd like to cast their vote. :smile2:

^ Still, it'd be worth it just to have a reason to post up songs from this rather wonderful album:

Have you seen the forum lately? We don't need no excuse for that! :d

Looks like we might just be saved, its turned into a two horse race.

Re: Positivity sub-forum
 
there's no option for "Positivity sub-forum", ironically the most descriptive name
