That's right,
Absolute TRL is pathetic. We all know TRL recap is posted here, but there's much more to this site than TRL. This site's connection to TRL is embarassing and prevents many people from telling their friends about the site, coming here at all, or taking us seriously.
Let's review what some of our members have to say about this site's name:

I couldn't agree more. I just tell my friends that I go to a music forum. But it's called TRL... mentioning it now is pretty humiliating.

So, just like Al Gore took the initiative in creating the Internet, I'm taking the initiative to rename this damn site. Now obviously, Joe owns the site, so it's really his decision. But personally I've had enough of this ATRL business. Everything you all have said is so very true. If this site wasn't called ATRL, it wouldn't be quite as embarassing and pathetic anymore.
I'd say that any new name for the site
must include "Absolute" or "A" (from the logo), including another word that starts with A. We can take that "A" or "Absolute" and make something good out of it. Something that describes this site without including TRL.
Everyone activate your brain and think of a new name for Absolute TRL.
