Um, we do have a help forum here ;)

But the trouble is that comics with only 3 letter names don't show up in search and browse :(

Wow, I didn't know that about the search engine. I'm glad I clicked on this thread now. Thanks Ozone for the heads up. Luckily I went in the completely opposite direction with one of the longest title names on DD!

Have a comic with a name thats eponymous and iconic, like futurama, penis, zxipi, or elftor.

Depends on the context, really. How it stands out. Like CNN for example.

right, no i get that. really all i'm trying to say is "hey, i work hard on this comic, i think it should pop up when you literally type it in the search bar" but it doesn't. so that kinda ticks me off.

Ah, I understand.

Though it would be more along the lines of glaring flaw in the search system (…like not having the ability to edit thread titles in the forums) instead of bias. :D

Well… poop. So much for a short, snappy name.
