gummybear 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2009 you know, when i first thought about it it kind of just had my mind going in circles... i really thought what in the heck does Xisto mean?? ... but I like that theres a story behind it. I like that it comes from a personal place, a personal experience. I've played cs and a whole bunch of other games so i know how engaging and close that environment can be .. sometimes a name just kind of sticks with you and you only feel comfortable with that one name..

cyber_electrons 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2009 I though about the name again and the history. Just of casual:Did OpaQue create this name? - Trap 17If not, it seems like just copying other names - my feeling.To my thoughts, a more original name may be interesting and making it more personal.What do you think?

enderforce 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2009 Although I don't like the number, it is short, easy to remember, and it doesn't have the word host. I like it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kimochitim 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2009 What do you feel about the name Xisto .. What impression do you get about the site.I love the concept of the system but I think the name should be changed. When I think of the word trap I think of getting caught. Of course I am now a recently registered member who understands the site.There could be a chance that the name will scare some people away. Do you agree?

Alex Cicala 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2009 When I first look at Xisto it remind me of half-life 2's City17. LOL.Just a name change would be good. On the other hand it would be unnecessary because of the fabulous/awesome service you guys offer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fractured.Logic 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2009 My third day here. Honestly, my first impression was: "Interesting name... hmm... better than these others, lemme check it out."Then I had the chance to start reading the forums a bit. I was already impressed with the general idea, but to see it in action was a whole other little beastie. And I love it.I don't find the name bothersome or intimidating in the slightest, and it's actually already grown on me (especially since I read the story behind the name).Great job, OpaQue, and keep up the good work! You've earned an enthusiastic supporter here! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arjupun 0 Report post Posted May 1, 2009 I think Xisto is a nice name for this froum because it seems like effectfull and we all know that trap 17 is how much effective. If somebody wants to learn sth about sth then they shoould open Xisto.com which is a free hosting giver by simple terms and condition. Therefore, I thik Xisto ia nice name.

freenrg 0 Report post Posted May 5, 2009 The first impression is indifference. Sorry.I think the name needs some explaining. It does remind me of "Catch 22", but now sure this is related. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rob86 2 Report post Posted June 11, 2009 My opinion is the same as above. Indifference. I have no idea what it means, well okay I did read the history of the site, but still. It's just a name to me, it's short, memorable and easy to type. It doesn't bother me at all. It seems almost like a private club to a person at first though. I wasn't sure what to think when I first saw the name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rickeybojey 0 Report post Posted June 15, 2009 Trap17 is quite a unique name, which is an advantage since it catches attention and would get more people to interact through it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wendylady 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2009 I was a little worried about it , as to me the word Trap is a bad thing. Some thing to force you in to, or to falsly give info to get something out of. Now reading the post about me it seem it can mean anything. Give it a try do to finding good reviews about it on google. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ike_ve 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2009 (edited) The name is kinda tricky.. The forums are post2host, so it is a TRAP, you post and you don't get host, kinda like you have a messege: Don't post, this is a trap.And the 17 is a number becouse the trap.com domain was taken :DBTW: This is not a trap, i bought a domain name with mycents and it works perfectly Edited July 17, 2009 by Ike_ve (see edit history) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SaNJ 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2009 Yes, it's a strange name...but it works...I first found out about this site...from a friend of mine...who said..He found this site after a painful research on his own..Initially a thought did come to mind...What does the name mean...but I couldn't find out...The word 'Trap' somehow makes some sense...but I don't know the significance of the number "17"..But as I said..the name works and I like it...
