I'd rather look at '11oneeleven' at the end of a structured sentence than seeing ultra bad grammar like I see on MSN every day.

 

[TuoDrable]

well, I second that. Every "cool" person with a "cool" MSN nickname like:
"Everie begining has a end!!"
well, retard... :Smug:

Bad grammer + Shitty typing = God dammit.

On AIM, I always have people talking to me that either type with shitty grammer, or can't type. Even worse, I have one friend that says one or two words at a time

so he liek

Not having anything meaningful to contribute is worse than, but often manifests as, poor spelling/grammar and "l337" speak...

 

[Tubbs]

I remember when me and Tubbs would always use hardcore leet-speak, then we almost got boycotted

Adding '1oneoneeleven' after an exclamation point isn't leetspeak, 7I-I15 15.

Tubbs, you still haven't recorded "teehee".

I also finally found a kickass band name today, I'll start writing shit just so I can use it

DAMMIT! You know, at this point I doubt I'm going to record it without it being the intro of a song. It's just too stupid sounding. Anyway, what's the deal with kickass band name? EXPLAIN PLZ.

 

[Matt]

My band's name is now either "Star Chamber" or "Court ov Star Chamber". It's named after the court England used in the 1500's to persecute people.

 

[Tubbs]

Well, one thing's for sure. I'm not keeping "Visionarium" as a band name. It just sounds too generic, and here's how I found out.

Searching for "Iumentus" in google came up with 180 results

Searching for "Visionarium" in google came up with 64,100 results

Does anyone see why I want the name changed now?

 

[DoomsdayZach]

no. please elaborate.

Emperor - 38,100,000
Immortal - 27,000,000
Obituary - 21,100,000
Behemoth - 4,820,000
Suffocation - 197,000
Persuader - 2,240,000

Search at metalarchives and see how many come up.

Those are all common words; "Iumentus" is not.

 

[The Yngster]

my band name is the best, my band however is quite mediocre

The other really funny thing to do is to take normal text and put it in BabelFish into some other language, then to copy that text and put it into "English." Hilarity ensues.

Exactly. Common, more recognizable words stick with people and shit.

You have it backwards.

Anyway, here's the deal. Exactly one year ago today, I made my first post on UM. I made a decision to keep my "Somewhat Fat Guitarist" user title all the way up until 1 year. Now it's finally time that I changed it. I'll be messing with a whole bunch of different titles probably until I come up with one I like.

 

[ABQShredHead]

I don't think I'd remember "Iumentus" very well. Hell, I can't even pronounce it, and I had to look up to see how to spell it - how would I remember it? I agree with Zach.
