neil9000 Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 Well I'm English, and I spell what I see so arch, but whenever I hear Americans say it, its arc, so....... Quote
cammelspit Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 ARK and AARCHitect are the same sounding arch.... It would be Arch like the structure or Ark... I say it Ark like any reasonable person would. 3 Quote

Charco Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 RetroArch as in starch. Even though I guess it is supposed to be short for architecture. Actually, it really is an awful name. Quote

Actually, it really is an awful name. This is exactly why I would say 'Ark' since that is how architecture is said. In reality, the name is terrible and a full rebrand wouldn't be a bad idea anyways. Especially considering the toxic nature of their community and how poorly their devs treat users, namely myself. Heck, they even were being a pain to Jason and we all know he is such a nice guy, how can you not love him? Oh well... Quote

cammelspit Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 My vote is for changing the name to 'USemuNEVER' or 'iPOOPemu' 1 Quote

SentaiBrad Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 I always say Retro Arch (ark). Just personal ways of saying things I guess. 22 minutes ago, fromlostdays said: What did they do to pain jason? As far as I know, nothing. At least in my limited interaction with them, they've been good people. *shrugs* What they do is hard, and the bad rep they get is a little misguided I think, but to each their own I guess. In my interactions, I have nothing but something good to say, so. Quote
cammelspit Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 I was poking fun at the BS Jason had to deal with about the whole including RA and how he was refused just because LB was not open source. It takes a special kind of person to think that everything can be open sourced and the world still keeps turning. I know it was only one of them that caused any real problems but I was more or less making light of that. As for myself, you all know I am generally a nice guy and am kind and thoughtful with my questions as well. They treated me like scum and I even had one of the devs flat out tell me I was essentially too stupid to use RA so I shouldn't even try. This is one of MANY reasons I don't use RA unless I absolutely have to. I felt I should at least qualify my statements for those of you I have not told the story to before. More to the point, those who aren't on the streams regularly. 2 Quote
