I think you're misremembering because it was Anime Death Tentacle Rape Whorehouse in the early 2000s and SA didn't start off with an anime board.

Cuntellectual posted:There is extremely little reason to come here over Reddit's various anime discussion subreddits other than specifically preferring the forum format or the specific people here. r/anime and most other anime-related subreddits I've looked into tend to have a pretty unpleasant culture. For any issues ADTRW might have, the difference is night and day.

Anyways if we have to change it because people are really bothered by a name that’s been gone for a decade I really like the backronyms we’ve been doing and that should continue. Choose some rando acronym that still can have fun options Tying it to a specific anime seems fail

If we want to attract new users I suggest naming it r/anime.

That's what the letters stand for. We can add on as many backronyms as we want, but that isn't changing what it means, that's disguising it. If we're deciding that Anime Death Tentacle Rape Whorehouse is too offensive then we should change it instead of equivocating about how "actually, it means something different now." No one's gonna be fooled.

I have eyeballs, and this is what ADTRW means now. Pretending that it means what it used to mean for the sake of getting outraged is pretty absurd.

It stands for "Actually, Don't Try Replacing Words"

on the flipside pretending that everyone who finds the name distasteful because of its history is pretending to be outraged is also pretty silly

That's probably enough suggestions for now and we keep on having the same arguments so I'm going to go ahead and close this for now and we'll probably get the voting thread up once the toxx posters are free.
