RockstarLoft is now RockstarNexus
« on: May 07, 2012, 11:54:32 AM »
Hey guys. Recently we launched RockstarLoft and a number of you have been big supporters and for that you have my up most gratitude. Yesterday, I received an email from Rockstar asking the name to be changed due to trademark issues. Due to this, we have decided to rename the website RockstarNexus.com. Current links to the RockstarLoft domain will be redirected for now, but please make sure to update your bookmarks to RockstarNexus.com as I believe I will need to hand over the loft domain to Rockstar. Again, thank you guys for all your support and I hope you come with us over to  RockstarNexus!

It was one of the names I was originally considering. I ultimately went with RockstarLoft because it has some Rockstar Games history behind the name. I also didn't use it because I thought it might be confused to easily with the TES Nexus websites even though nexus is a common word. But after doing some more looking, there are a lot of gaming websites and companies with nexus in the name so I don't think it'll be an issue.

Lol don't worry too much about all that. What was the trademark claim/history thingy about anyway?

I go there from here anyway, was kinda confused, 'cause I opened it when the design hadn't still been ported. If it wasn't for that I wouldn't even notice the name change  :lol:


This is what I saw when I went there earlier today:

Yeah when I moved it to the new domain it reset back to the default theme. :P Should be fixed now.

Much better name, blessing rather than a curse in many ways :P. It's still a hassle to switch though of course, I understand that. Hope the website keeps going strong, look at this way, at least Rockstar knows about your website now :)

Rockstar used to use the RockstarLoft name for nightclub parties they had when they first started out.
