    | Well then it was rightly moved.. This is short domain discussion, you cant elect another forum based on that you would get more responses there. If you feel these posts affect the relevant discussion I would be glad to remove my own and your own comments pertaining to moving the thread.. Your call.. |

| @promo - No need to delete anything. This thread is done with or without our posts. @defaultuser - Well you might think so, but I was in the middle of a debate, but nothing happened after the move. But anyway, it's too late now. |

| To be fair an anyone who has contributed to this thread is automatically subscribed to the thread. So a move would not have any consequence for them since they would still receive updates via Email or their userCP. Maybe defaultuser is closer to the truth.. |

When it comes to two words I would switch from short to memorable and meaningful. To an end user memorable/meaningful is inherently valuable - short MIGHT have value. I would consider FaceBook.com to be a short two worder. I would consider PinkGuitar.com to be a medium two worder. I would consider DiamondExchange.com to be a long two worder. So I guess about 4-5 letters per word short.....words > 6 to be long and everything else medium MarketingStrategies.com is long; however, it is not something you would forget. It is memorable and meaningful. Prlku.com is short. Plurk.com is memorable. The 14 MG rule refers to one of MicroGuy's rules of domaining that I've read repeatedly. It's a decent generalization for general use - no domain should be more than 14 characters. I don't think it's a hard and fast rule.
