the end of an era for sure
taco n banana as a name can be traced to tnb's precusor community, DSRP, all the way back in 2007, when there was a subforum run by rick dark called "el taco banana" (which was essentially for shitposts). after DSRP fell to admin bickering, the bulk of the community splintered off into various other communities. one was mine dog, one was tnb. one was also DSRP itself, which i was a part of for years, which amounted basically to an embittered IRC channel and a rp server (which i paid for with my mama's credit card) that maxed 10 players. good times.
i remember being a teeny bopper and clicking on that subforum, which would bring up a slew of ridiculous flashing text, jarring backgrounds, and, since this was 2007 and this kind of stuff was still possible on the internet,

what's the rationale around the name change? presumably because taco is vagina and banana is penis and it might turn people off from connecting or something??
def think that this new endeavor, whatever you wanna call it, should begin with gauging player interest, maybe getting surveys going. not too late to get people's feedback on what kind of new changes they'd like to see instead of making the age-old tragic tnb admin mistake of assuming that admins know what players want best, cause often that simply isnt the case...
