I just wondered A) where the name "Libelldra Forge" came from
and B ) where this kind of question would go in future?


Sorry if this is the wrong place sad.gif

This should probably go to the Trashcan.

Libelldra refers to Flygon, our mascot, in a foreign language, was it German?

Forge comes from the site's main idea to create movesets for Pokemon, and also supposedly refers to our lesser known mascot, Scizor.

Both "Libelldra" and "The Forge" were candidates for the official name of this board. We created a poll, allowing users to vote for whichever one of the two names they preferred, but since that poll ended in a tie (twice!), Iggy Koopa and I decided to just merge the two names to form The Libelldra Forge.
The word "Libelldra" is the German translation of "Flygon," our mascot. "The Forge" was something we randomly came up with.

That's basically how we came to the name we currently have.

In the future, questions about the site can be PM'd to a member of the staff (I guess I would be the most obvious person to send such a PM to in this case). This hasn't been posted anywhere, so there was no way you could've known this.
If the same question about the site is asked very frequently, I'll consider posting the question and the answer somewhere on this board, but for now, most questions about stuff related to the board can just be PM'd.
