Changing my name hurt me in the real life. I feel harassed.

I totally appreciate that your just joking.

The only response really is 'gf' and move on.

Unsurprisingly, there are people with an axe to grind because they don't like the way you play the game, because you don't like the way they play the game. So while you play in game and draw out tears, they've used other tools and achieved the same effect.

The tears on both sides are quite funny, but I also feel for the confusion this causes, not only for you but for others too.

It's pronounced with an ю. Not that I expect you to know what that is.
Wrong, firstly ю is part of the Cyrillic alphabet not the Latin alphabet so you're using the wrong example. Regardless ю is a vowel sound, which means that it's a ю not an ю.
Secondly, it's a euphemism. The first syllable is a vowe consonant sound consonant, specifically "you" in both ю and euphemism .

An is used when the first syllable is a consonant vowel sound, a is used when it's a vowel consonant sound. It's a sound rule, not a spelling rule.

*Edit got the rule backwards. The lesson learnt, don't post without coffee.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

I guess Mike Myers needs to grow up too.

Interesting how many devs I'm sure enjoyed the crap out of that movie, let alone all the Bart-to-Moe prank calls from The Simpsons of a similar affect.

Anal Canal just isn't a big deal. I've reported people for their names and corps for their names before; maybe 4-5 times in total. I am not someone who is insensitive to these things. It's just that Anal Canal is a perfectly fine and funny name.

Ok, I had to google what a consonant and an vowel was, but I think you've got them mixed up there Jonah. Moreover, ю is a vowel.

If he wrote that script then perhaps he does.

I don't find it funny and I'm sure many others don't either.

Yes it is, one that starts with a y sound as in you

I am talking about the pod pilot and ganker formerly known as Anal Canal.


You might recognize him as the progenitor of the recent, highly successful 'Venture and Pod' ganking contest that recently cost CCP thousands of dollars in future subscription fees. So many budding young careers, tragically snuffed out. I shed a single tear.

I am outraged to learn he has wrongfully (and hypocritically) been renamed to CALDARI CITIZEN 14330909 by the CCP staff.


Ahh, i knew i recognized the Avatar!
Thank you LOOOOOOL

Yes, I do, because it's obviously needed. Although, I admit, I've grown compunctuous about the whole ordeal.

It's also the truth that an anal canal is merely a part of the human body, just like a big toe. You wouldnt be offended if I named myself BigToe would you?

I can't really see someone putting 'Anal' in their name without the intent to be edgy, abrasive, or antagonistic.

That said, what's in a name? A rose by any other name would... um, actually nevermind.

1. A man I highly respect - James315 - has enthusiastically promoted Anal on www.minerbumping.com.

2. Its self-evident that our Community Leader, CCP Falcon, is a big fan of Anal. Not so sure about ISD Ezwal, though.

3. I've seen our resident troll, Mr Epeen, relentlessly pursue Anal through many of the ganking theads that have come and gone lately. And don't let him deny it.

My own opinion? I'll happily suggest that Anal belongs in prison.

[...]

But CCP isn't. All about 'leaning forward' and chock full of Zoe Quinn-type SJWs, CCP is simply infested with individuals who are completely shameless about parading their own....biasses.

As such, CCP should be ALL ABOUT encouraging Anal. In local. In the forums. At FanFest. Wherever.
