Since it's no longer just about the Underworld games but is now a general-purpose Ultima board for the six cardinal games on GOG as well, is it possible to change the forum name to reflect this?

If it isn't, no problem, I just wanted to put the notion on the table.
Bump for common sense.

There are a number of forums that should be renamed. Privateer is another one.
We've been asking them to re-name several forums that have inaccurate names for a while now. No one from GOG has responded.
I don't know - I understand that the forum name is a reference to the Underworld series, but I kind of like the concept of this being a dark cave wherein us old-timey gamers hang about and discuss the early acme of computer role-playing games.
It's not just a reference to the series, it is the actual name of only one of the Ultima games they sell, yet the forum is supposed to cover all the Ultima games they sell. If you search the general forums, there are already a few threads from people confused by this (wondering where the Ultima 1, 2 & 3 forum is, for example). There are several other forums mislabeled like that, but not all of them are as confusing:

Aquanox
Atlantis: The Lost Tales
Baldur's Gate
Battle Isle
Bloodrayne
Commandos
Dark Reign
Dungeon Keeper
Ground Control
Heroes of Might and Magic
Icewind Dale
Master of Orion
Patrician
Police Quest
Spellforce Platinum
Total Annihilation
Ultima Underworld
Wing Commander Privateer
Zork

I share several of the sentiments here.

At first I disliked it, and then thought about it as a virtual place. Now I like it.
Indeed. Haul up your rucksack, mix your reagents, and stock up on arrows; guard your Word of Power, make your way through the Serpent's Spine and descend through the darkened, twisted tunnels of the dungeon Despise, and emerge here, where you can ... talk about exactly that.
I don't know how many people have noticed -- I only just did myself, in fact -- but it seems this forum did get renamed (to simply "Ultima Series") at some point during the past 24 hours...
