What should be PPM's motto?
PPM exists for over 5 years and we never had a motto, a slogan for us. At least, not an official one and this is about to change, with your help, of course. We want you to choose the one below that fits more what you see here.
To help you with this task, first of all, we need to recap what PPM, the site, is. It's a modding development community. We develop and host mods, tools, resources, maps, tutorials and even one game (OpenSun). We promote events, we are an active community. Many people visit us because of the tools, of the mods and the tutorials... also, mainly, because of the community. What shapes the site is the community. The news of the site focus its community. Everything that happens here is done by the community. The community makes the future and brings the future to this place. We affect other communities due to our tools, mainly, and modding ideas, although the tools affects more the way all other communities mod their C&C game (except for Generals/Zero Hour and Renegade).
Now, after all the brainstorming of the paragraph above, the main ideas that rise are: community (it shapes the site), future (our tools affect how the games are modded and the ideas discussed here travels to other communities), learning (we are very newbie friendly and we have lots of tutorials and researchs) and development (afterall, we develop every modding related stuff).
I've came with the following mottos based on the things above:
1) Project Perfect Mod: The C&C modding future is a click ahead.
2) Project Perfect Mod: Shapping a perfect way of modding.
3) Your first C&C modding step is at Project Perfect Mod.
4) Project Perfect Mod: The complete C&C modding community.
5) Project Perfect Mod: We have a vision, a community vision!
But if you don't like any of them, post a better one in a reply. If it's good enough, I add it in the options. Last edited by Banshee on Mon Dec 12, 2005 8:27 pm; edited 2 times in total QUICK_EDIT
Project Perfect Mod: The C&C modding future is a click ahead.
i like that on the most, although i also do like number 5, i still choose no. 1 QUICK_EDIT
I like
4) PPM: The complete C&C modding community.
but perhaps a few other ideas:
PPM: At the heart of CNC.
Where you find CNC, you find PPM.
PPM: Living CNC.
PPM: Powered by CNC. _________________ If there is a problem on the forums, PM me. QUICK_EDIT
PPM:The one who controls moding controls the future
Lol ^_^ great pun.. for without modding we don't have a C&C future really.. unless EA gets off it's backside but let's not turn this into an EA 'bashing' fest shall we? _________________ QUICK_EDIT

PPM: lighting the path. would be nice
This is a good motto. I've updated the poll above.
For Muldrake's suggestions, I wanna say that we don't focus much on C&C, more on modding and creativity with C&C games. And, for gufu, it's a funny motto, but it doesn't reflect the community of any game. QUICK_EDIT
Hmm... That sounds like a very good motto for PPM. I think that should be one of the poll choices. Its very good, and unoriginal, plus its sounds really good for PPM, and kinda fits its perspective too. _________________ QUICK_EDIT
i think the vision one, because it sounds like we're desperate
nah but i think the whole idea of having a motto for a website is stupid _________________ Singer-Songwriter Christie Isaac QUICK_EDIT
What about: "He who is at PPM, controls the modding" _________________ I use a Unix-based system, that means I'll get laid as often as I have to reboot. QUICK_EDIT
I couldn't do it better.... if i could make something that is as good as this... I really like it! _________________ I use a Unix-based system, that means I'll get laid as often as I have to reboot. QUICK_EDIT
"PPM: The Tacitus Of Modding" For Winner!
I wish I could take back my other vote now..
Why couldn't I have thought about this earlier, before everyone else had voted!
Also, mottos are best kept short.. and mines quite short..

Honestly... there is a flaw with it. Tacitus is something that no one understands and that it needs to be decoded. Modding is the Tacitus, not PPM... _________________

Hmm... PPM: For decoding the tacticus of modding.... Hmm... _________________ I use a Unix-based system, that means I'll get laid as often as I have to reboot. QUICK_EDIT
The tacitus is a database of almost infinite knowledge. People work on translating it, and slowly the uncover new secrets. It has given out some powerful secrets already, and it will continue to do so for a long time, for even if it is completely translated there is too much information to be worked through in a short time.
The tacitus is the mind of the community of PPM, within are ideas to which will add a new level to modding, many we have seen and have really changed the way we mod TS and CNC, many to which we haven't begun to see yet.
We are the translators to the greatest database to modding, ourselves. _________________ If there is a problem on the forums, PM me. QUICK_EDIT

I'm gonna go with PPM: The Tacitus Of Modding, cause TS/FS is the largest C&C game mentioned at PPM. _________________ Destroy to create. All for the hunt to dominate!
Meh. Withdraw it from the poll then. We shouldn't have the option of an inaccurate motto, unless you wanted something like PPM: The key to the tacitus, or PPM: The key to modding. _________________ If there is a problem on the forums, PM me. QUICK_EDIT
Maybe no one wants my 2 cent, but I chose PPM: Shaping a perfect way of modding because we are doing the best we can, without pd's work anyways. We are developing an open source game, so the slogan kinda hints at that. And other things like it. _________________ QUICK_EDIT

Although the Tacitus one is good, it kinda makes think that PPM is devoted to TS/FS only, which were not. So don't pick it. _________________ Destroy to create. All for the hunt to dominate!

Gufu, please go back to first grade. I've spoken to Chavs smarter than you. And who cares if it makes us look more TS-oriented? C-Gen has TS forums, yet the whole place is RA2-Oriented. _________________ PPM's Reichstrollfuherer, 236th Trollenparties brigade. QUICK_EDIT
