  • Gay = Happy :D

  • pathetic, dude, dnt do it

  • Do it, but homophobics probably will not buy from you.

  • I suggest not doing it. No one will take you seriously. Regardless of their sexual orientation or personal opinions.

  • I don't care what the name is as long as the prices & service are reasonable & excellent.

    Although I would probably buy for shits and giggles.

  • Are they clustered?

    This. No one will take you seriously. Just don't.

  • @Jacob said: homophobics

    What?

  • People so against homosexuals that they will spew hate and violence towards them.

  • Childish; would not buy from.

    So a gaynode would be a cheerful and colourful node.

    And an empty one, too.

  • @ShardHost said: I suggest not doing it. No one will take you seriously. Regardless of their sexual orientation or personal opinions.

    Agreed. If it's a joke, it's just stupid too.

  • If I wanted politics, I could go to Reddit or Digg FYI

  • What are you, 12?

    Gangbang?

    Wait.. are you serious about this name? If so I'll pay for your counseling. :P

  • Don't be so vulgar.

    If it's a gay person setting this "business" up then it could make sense. Probably @Jacob.

  • personally, i think it's fabulous.

    I can't think of why the name would be appropriate for a hosting business. You're opening yourself up to abuse.

    Hilarious @domincl.

  • @DeanClinton: Friendly banter, but I honestly know a gay guy and he gets quite alot of abuse.

    So dean is right. I am assuming this thread was not created to be taken seriously thugh.

  • I'm going to go against everyone else and say that I think that it could work. You wouldn't be targeting at the sort of people on LET, you'd be targeting people who are a bit out of their element buying hosting, and who are also gay.

    It's a niche but niches can work. There is a market for gay-owned or explicitly gay-friendly businesses in the real world, I don't see why it wouldn't work online.

    That said, I could see it working more for a shared hosting + managed VPS provider model than unmanaged VPSes.

  • Not a good sales point having your company's name "GayNode", on the other hand, it may turn out to work to your benefit. Definitely an eye catcher.

  • On topic:

    I think it's a beautiful name, shows a company with courage to try new things!
