Recently I released new piece of software, called Piles for Windows. At the time, I didn’t know the meaning of this word, other than plural form of “pile”, and I thought – hey, I’m making Stacks replacement for windows, so lets create a simple word game (if it is called that in English, I stopped being confident in my English language knowledge).
As it turns out, “piles” is pseudo-medical term for hemorrhoids, and of course everyone is making fun of me, which is just great. Really I don’t care about it, and I’m not gonna change name of the software, maybe, but only maybe, i just add “(pl. form of pile)” after the name. There is also problem with site name, people reading Dragon Shorn (which is underlined in my text editor, like, lets say, an error), instead of Dragon’s Horn, but hey, maybe it because I’m not native speaker.
Also, there are a lot haters, saying “I don’t need it”, “There is something in Windows called recent files” and so on. So what. You don’t like it, don’t use it. It’s simple. Don’t whine, don’t go rampage. I use it, and I like it. If you like it, tell me, if you have some feature ideas, tell me, and if you don’t like it – just stay quiet. Please?
So, to wrap thing up. No, I wont change name, and yes, hater gonna hate.
