I personally think 8kun should have been called 8board or 8bod. To go with the infinity boards theme. Somehow the 8kun name don't sit well with me. 8chan made sense because it can be short for infinite channels.
The retarded admin of this site has no naming sense. He just selected another Japanese honorific and added 8 as suffix.

Yeah but then the japanese honorific would get left out instead

"chan" was short for channel, it had nothing to do with honorifics.

No that's bullshit it was a double entendre and it was clever. It wasn't only short for channel, it was also a nod to the Japanese honorific 'chan', which is a term of endearment for someone.

Also you can't say that was unintentional because if they really only wanted it to mean channel then they would have called it 4channel (well they do now but that's for a different reason)

I agree 8kun is not the best name but 8board is even worse.
