Regarding the url of my credit [POLL]

Posted 1 year, 1 month ago by Coturnix

What should I do regarding the credit url?

4 Votes Keep things the way they are (links will continue to direct to Nor)
28 Votes Change all code links to Coturnix (all new links will direct to this account, existing ones will direct to Nor unless changed)
2 Votes Change the name of this account to Nor (all versions of code will have correct url (I'm the most hesitant on this one for reasons above))

Hi there! First up, thanks for looking at this in the first place- I'll probably link to this poll from my main since I do know some people follow only there and this may or may not have relevance to that account's name. I've wanted to address this for a while but admittedly, I've been a bit scattered- better late than never, though! Essentially, my codes currently direct to my main/art/primary toyhouse, Nor (because I started using my codes over there, which I've moved to here). However, because of that, I feel like partially some people get confused by that, even with redirects. To deal with this, I've drawn up three options, which you can see below (with pros and cons listed):

  • Keep things the way they are (links will still direct to Nor, for better or worse)
  • Change all code links to Coturnix (old/existing links on people's pages will still direct to Nor, but new ones will redirect here)
  • Change the name of this account to 'Nor' and my main to something else (All versions codes will have the correct url)
Admittedly I'm more than a little hesitant to go for that last option due to a lot of fondness with the 'Nor' username + additional things such as a watermark and other things; but ultimately I do think getting it closer or simply my username on most sites may be helpful and I can adjust.

Thanks for looking, and hopefully, voting! I appreciate it!

(Edit, the third option of the poll should say below but I can't change that. Just pretend it's right orz)

Third and possibly final edit, although I'll leave this up indefinitely; there seems to be a pretty large majority for changing the credits to go to this account- I've done that, so from now on all credits should redirect to this account. A huge thank you to everyone who's voted! I really appreciate the feedback, it helps a ton!

id say it makes the most sense to update your credit to this account - buuuut would it be worth the possibility of having to change it a third time if you eventually rename this account to Synoicus in accordance with all your others?

Nor

I'm probably going to leave it as Coturnix, to be honest! I still really love the birds in the Coturnix genus plus it's a neat genus name and since it's not my main, it doesn't really have to fit with the rest of everything, if that makes sense? Funnily my main itself is an outlier but considering how much I enjoy 'Nor' I'm fine with that

LOL fair enough!!! yea then id just redirect any new people here! folks with the previous code copies or anyone actually interested enough in using them to follow the link can figure it out i think [thonk emoji]
