Title: RockstarLoft is now RockstarNexus
Post by: AJ Collins 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 (http://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 (http://rockstarnexus.com)!

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.
