    Question - I'm sure it's been answered before

    Where is the name sythe derived from?

    Why did he pick a .org name?


    He branded it incredibly well and has great success from the .org, but that's incredibly rare to use such an extension as .org and brand it to a gaming site.

    Question - I'm sure it's been answered before

    Maybe because it's a Non-for-profit website? Not a commercial one?

    No, sythe is not a non-profit business.

    PETA, FEMA, organizations like that are non-profit businesses.

    Well sense its non-profit couldn't it be .net?
    Because .net is networking witch deals with gaming?

    It isn't non profit? Why do you think there are ads on Sythe. The only person qualified to answer this is Sythe.

    I don't think you understand what a non-profit organization is. People market and use .org's all the time as there is no restrictions, however the TLD itself is designed for charities(what a non-profit organization is).

    Just because you are NOT profiting(i don't know if he is or he isn't) doesn't mean it's a non-profit organization.

    I was just curious as to what the origin of the sythe name is.

    Every forum needs to make a profit. This is a profit business. Profit forum, I should say.

    For some of the things, yes I'm sure, but do you honestly think Sythe runs this site off of his own pocket?

    God no, i'm almost sure he does.

    But the term NON-PROFIT means charity, not whether or not your business / website is succeeding or not.

    There hardly is.

    It was just originally designed differently and has changed drastically over the years.

    But it gets complicated.

    Pretty sure there are no qualifications for a .org domain, he probably just chose it because it was cheaper or it sounded better.

    I know, there are no requirements for that TLD.

    But it's not a very popular option.

    I'm also curious on where the name "sythe" is derived from.

    Yea I was wondering about the name too, It's a hard one and its not like theres a picture, because this is the meaning for 'Sythe'

    Yet, I always thought it was spelt as; Scythe?

    I personally think that sythe.org is better then sythe.net or sythe.com. Just has that... Flow to it. Maybe he just decided to name it that, and it went big? :p
