Bad characters in domain names

kinkarso · 12-20-2005, 04:07 PM

Hi, I'm not sure what characters you don't want in your 3 character domain name. Like, I know q, and z aren't very good. So is x and zero. Anything else?

Also, what would you rather have? Y, V, or U?

Thank You!

i would prefer 'u' simply because it's a vowel

I believe the most irritating character has to be the dash (-)...

A dash in a 3 char. domain name is very annoying to type.

Depends on what the character would standy for. I'd go for y or u, however.

The most annoying characters in a 3 character have to be 'q' and (-).

Whereas I would prefer a 'v' simply because it is much easier to pronounce as compared to 'y' or 'u'

Depends, for example p-p.ext is easy to type it just depends on the other letters, thouh p-p is a bit of an eyesore

I figured q x z y were annoying. For example ppl with websites with another form of a generic like matchmaker"z" etc...
I hate that.

Typo - where 0 (zero) instead of o (oh).
