Results of the PCMR Name Change Survey

Hello PCMR community!

On July 13th, we asked the community for your opinion if you would like to change the name of this community.

Results of the Survey :

Yes - 28.1%
No - 71.9% (winner)

Of the 1,201 responses received, we as a community have democratically decided that we should not change the name from PC Master Race. I am grateful to our community for your input, as this was a difficult topic to navigate together.

If you would like to review the history of this, please check out this post here: https://lemmy.world/post/1430610

Kind regards,

EDIT 30-Aug-2023:

Due to some of the recent targeted attacks against Lemmy.world, I noticed that the image I shared with this post was purged from their servers.

Here's a new screenshot of the results for posterity: https://i.postimg.cc/jqNg5gWx/pcmrsurvey.png

So no PCübermachines?
- I put together a server once as a favor for someone at a university. This person didn't know how to change the hostname so I set it to "killbot9000". For years that whole lab had to log into killbot9000. (I'm sure they could have figured out how to change the name if they tried - I guess they thought it was funny too.)
  
  Anyway my point is that I should have called it "ubermachine" and now I will live with this regret for the rest of my life.
  
  No need for regrets. killbot9000 is a fantastic name.
- MEHRZWECKCOMPUTERÜBERMENSCH, bitte.
- PCÜM - gently rolls down your tongue
