"Aesthete Daimyo Treasures Rare Wares" was pretty good (which is I'm guessing what your fave is) but I think nothing has gotten as hearty a chuckle out of me as "Altruistic Duwang Teenagers Right Wrongs" did.

a cartoon duck posted:I doubt the qcs thread op was sincere at all, but I don't think everyone else who prefers to change the name because they find it tasteless because of its origins is concern-trolling. If nothing else I have no reason to think Stalin-chan is anything but serious here. i was entirely sincere. dunno why people think my thread was concern trolling. the forums have gotten rid of the gas chamber, so i figure why not rename adtrw to a non-rape associated acronym i know a lot of people say "well the meaning has changed", but adtrw still has that baggage and there's plenty of other acronyms suggested in this thread that don't carry that baggage at all

realistically speaking i think the name change is important because ADTRW is one of the very few things left on SA that could actually genuinely attract new people like i've tried to point a lot of people in the direction of this subforum because, as it turns out, "an anime discussion space that isn't infested with pedophiles, nazis, and nazi pedophiles" is something that's actually in kinda high demand internet-wide. there's... not really a lot of others. the problem is i then have to explain the name and give the usual "yeah SA used to be kind of a horrible place like 20 years ago" spiel so regardless of if people still keep calling it ADTRW, the name needs to become something else so that people don't get a different sense of this sub than what it actually is.

I don't get why people feel the need to explain what the name used to mean, rather than what it actually means.

I think suggestions like VEGETA and GOKU are less about the specific anime and more that everybody knows who Vegeta and Goku are so it's easily identifiable as the anime subforumLORD OF BOOTY posted:the problem is i then have to explain the name and give the usual "yeah SA used to be kind of a horrible place like 20 years ago" spiel All the interested people that don't already know about SA usually start backing away when I explain the "pay 10 bucks to register and 10 bucks to get an avatar and 15 bucks to get a search function and PMs" bit

Probably Magic posted:VEGETA I always vote Vegeta but in addition to that it does pretty clearly scream out "This is the Anime Forum." People know who Vegeta is and they are aware that he's anime.

Getting really happy when someone talks to me about anime so I can explain what the forum name is.

who knew the rape joke is still alive because of some total freaks who just jump at the chance to explain it for some reason instead of using one of the many subsequent normal acronyms that long since subsumed it

The better question than "why change it?" is "why keep it?" What is the appeal of this dumb acronym? There's an infinite number of other jokes that could be used instead and could properly be clean breaks.

my comment is unrelated to the desire to change or not, simply that multiple people itt are complaining about a weird issue they create for themselves because ???

There's an infinite number of other jokes that could be used instead and could properly be clean breaks. If it's such a minor thing then theres no reason to change it either. This argument cuts both ways

Phimose Knight posted:everybody knows who Vegeta and Goku are I didn't. I had to look 'em up. Sorry, I've never watched or read Dragon Ball; just not interested in it. Just pointing out that using any particular character or show in the forum name might lead someone to assume the forum is dedicated to just that show. A more general forum name avoids that. (No matter how popular a particular show is, there are some people who have never heard of it.)

There's an infinite number of other jokes that could be used instead and could properly be clean breaks. SA's not exactly going to get a big influx of new blood and people who have been here forever know that ADTRW is the anime place. It seems really unlikely to me that anyone would not post here because "well the acronym used to have rape in it". Rape jokes are lovely but I feel like someone who's getting worked up over something like that probably has bigger things to worry about. LORD OF BOOTY posted:i mean, reddit is infamous for harboring nazis and pedophiles and we're famous for not doing that, that's kind of a big one honestly Unless they're moderators. Idk, it's just not something that usually comes up in comments sections of manga parts and I don't really care what happens on random parts of reddit I don't read.

Maybe I'm misremembering something, and it was certainly from before my time, but I thought Anime Death Tentacle Rape Whorehouse wasn't even the original ADTRW acronym (Anime Done The Right Way, iirc), just one that effectively overwrote the original in forums discourse because SA has always been Rie-Kugumiya-level tsundere for anime.
