Why would we?

An "FAQ" is never pronounced as a "Fax"

Long story short kid me didnt know what a faq was when i first visited this site so I just did my best to pronunce it as spelled. Didnt know faq was a acronym. I know ita wrong but it just now sounds right in my head cause honestly it rolls off thr tongue better imo. But i dont really speak the word much in real life so it's no big deal.

But GameFAQs is a single word. The F.A.Q. Is capitalized to let you know what the site is about.

FAQ is an acroynm so you'd say each letter individually

but you don't say ATM as "at-um", you say A T M

The early days of message boards and forums were horrible filled with turbonerds

If you guys thought the grammar police and turbonerds are bad today, they were literally 10x worse back then. I remember I met a dude on GameFAQs who hated acronyms and shorten words. I think I was in the RPG board and I used POW for Power, MAG for Magic and LVL for level and so forth. The dude came in going HAM on me about how I'm a lazy dude not wanting to spell out the whole words and used sloppy typing instead. I told him to chill, that it was not a big deal and that even the game itself used shorten words like that. The dude got even more pissed off and went on about how it's only two more letters to type to get the full words so why was I so dumb and low in IQ and I was not able to type it. It was fucking awful. I asked him what website was we on and he said GameFAQs and I said WRONG we are on Game FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS, spell it all out you lazy bum. Check mated that nerd.

Thats true if the acronym is by itself, but like I said before GameFAQs is a single word.

My friends back in high school (early 2000s) called it Game fax which is what I still call it. Sadly they all got rid of their accounts.

I call it Game Frequently Asked Questions.

It sounds more classy when I'm talking to girls and trying to impress them by telling them how I spend my free time.

GameFaqs was probably blocked at your school.

If Kat Slater says it's "Game Facks" then it's Game Facks unless you want to get a headbutt from her.

The dissenters calling it FAX will have a bobby knocking on their door soon, with the armed corgi squad. Don't worry.
