Why Mincer ?

[Ballade.]

Been wondering about this for some time now.. why is it 95% of the daoc players call Minstrels mincers?

is it that much harder hitting 2 extra keys and get the name right? or is it part of "we pay for the game, so we make the names?"

just currious coz to me it somehow seems retarded making other names for classes..

oh well ill go back and play my Waror <-- coz i think Warrior is too many letters

From your sig:

There is 3 kinds of people. Those who can count, and those who cant.

Spot the glaring mistake.

Infil's instead of infiltrator. Zerker instead of Berzerkers. SB's instead of Shadowblades, NS's instead of nightshades, Sorc's instead of sorcerer's, Overpowered instead of enchanters... need i go on? Shortening names is a common thing to do

tis a joke hes one of those who cant count.

fotmgaytwats instead of hibernians... etc

I believe his point is that typing mincers is not saving you much effort over typing minstrel. Mincer and Minstrel, still a reasonable amount of letters either way, unlike shortening Shadowblade down to SB which is a logical saving in effort.

Mincer:

To ponce, to bend gender, to be gay, to bat for the other side, to .....

Minstrel:

Wears bright colours and silly hats, plays a lute, 'charms' people, mesmerizes men

Need I go on?

My point was the text should read "there are" not "there is"...

writing mincer is easier, its MIN with right hand, and CER with left hand

minstrel requires a little more dance on the keyboard like. MIN with right hand, the STRE with left, and L with right again.

mincer is easier

Well i really don't see where that "C" have come from, its even faster to type "minser" then "mincer" tbh. (try it on keyboard if u don't agree =P)
and then we get rid of that nasty "C" that has absolutely nothing to do with the name :touch:

Hm, who cares anyway?

If you want to write "minSTrel" then do so =)

 

[HerculesPluto]

coz from the early days minstrels were all insane and jumped about contantly + wore funny armour colours

bored at gobbo beach without any cc, shouting ANY MINCERS was quite amusing

 

[burg]

Mincer sounds better too

 

[Ilienwyn]

Also why we call the Tower near amg mill when the game itself calls it tower?

 

[Eredan]

Maybe saying Mincer means you're l337?
