Talk:RAWR
From YPPedia
Ummm, as far as I remember, RAWR always stood for Ruby Alliance and War Regulation. I would have to go back to the Loot forums where the joke started, but of course, I no longer have access. Something in the first sentence's wording about it the meaning strikes me wrong. -- Quiglin 12:04, 8 June 2006 (PDT)
- My recollection follows: The term was first proposed in the SD royalty forums, after several other proposed acronyms pointed towards the more-pronounceable (and hopefully ironically catty) RAWR. By the time it was proposed to the Looterati in diplomatic channels, the acronym was already attached, though a long thread of other possible meanings of the four letters resulted. It should probably be noted somewhere, as trivia, if nothing else, that MEOW was an intentional play on the then-name of the alliance. --AtteSmythe 12:35, 8 June 2006 (PDT)
- So, the question then, is: Is the sentence correct and accurate? -- Quiglin 12:45, 8 June 2006 (PDT)
- Didn't Jorgeo make it up, standing for Ruby Alliance and War Regulation? --Featherfin 15:07, 8 June 2006 (PDT)
- I can call him, but this is also how I recall this situation. -- Quiglin 13:09, 16 June 2006 (PDT)
