How about SMCF?

Tom · August 04, 2003, 06:57:04 PM

QuoteLike several other folks here tho, I'm a little down on the new name. to me SMF reads as Stupid Mother, well you know.............

I didn't notice this until I was talking to my friend and telling him about the new forums. After saying yaBB SE was switching their name, and I said SMF, implying the name, and he thought I was calling him... You know what.

I know that the name is one of the least important things, but how about SMCF? Simple Machines Community Forums, like it says at the bottom of the page.

WTF is SMF supposed to imply? SMF is the alter-name of the forum and SMCF would be this site, not the actual forum software.

Tom · August 04, 2003, 07:02:40 PM

Hmmm, well how about throwing some other letter in there.
Could a mod please delete this thread?

Its a perfectly legitimate thread, and a decent suggestion. The abbreviation just stands for more than one thing

mattsiegman · August 04, 2003, 07:15:29 PM

Stupid Mother ******er

Denied.

Not that I have any say in the matter, but if I did you can rest assured that it would be denied.
