It's clearly two words so everything other than Reset Era (as in literally Reset the Era because of the GAF migration back then) is wrong.

This is posted in the Etcetera section.
How can so many of you be so wrong.

I typically just refer to it as Reset for short. But, if I say the whole name then it's Reset Era.

resetera as one word rolls off the tongue real nicely though. my mental tongue, anyway. because i certainly don't say the name out loud, ever.

1) I don't say it outloud
2) If I had to say it, I'd say "Reset Era"
3) I fully accept the right way to pronounce it should probably be like "Etcetera" "reeesetera."

But... w/e.

Never actually said the site name out loud. I suppose I'd go with Reset Era. Maybe. I'm not sure. I'll probably just stick to never mentioning it.

I say it like Etctera, but just because it flows better and is enjoyable, not because I think its proper. Honestly the site name is terrible said any other way. Reset Era is awkward to say, and sort of forever ties it to the origin of the site, should've just picked something that was its own thing.

I originally parsed it as the "et cetera" way but over time have converted to the "Reset Era" way (even though that doesn't flow well), and I say "Era" if I have to say it out loud to avoid the issue. >.>

"that forum I like to visit"

This is literally how I refer to it every time I mention it. Like my wife says "what are you doing on your phone?" and I say "looking at that forum that I talk on". Or "I was on this forum that I like, and they were talking about the new Resident Evil game".

It's obviously Reset Era, though. But from now on, I'm going to amuse myself by thinking of the ETC people pronouncing stuff like "Movie-Era" or "California-Era" or "Fighting Games Era" in that ridiculous way. "moo VEE ur ah". Heh.

When talking to friends about it, I usually say "The new GAF".

I don't think I ever said Resetera out lout, but Reset Era would be my go to.
