    Even funnier that it’s being called out by someone with the username being a l33t sp34k version of the word “spectral”

      I mean, I’m all in favor of spooky, fantastic, imagery and language, with layered meanings and connotations, when appropriate.

      I’m not arguing against it’s use, with a mildly leet-speak version of a kind of demon/vengeful spirit from Japanese folklore, as a username.

      … Do you see the difference?

        I’m not saying you’re against it. I’m just saying it’s a funny coincidence that your name is also a word for a supernatural entity related to ghosts/spirits.

          Ah!

          Well then, I guess we’ll have to see if a shinigami or phantasm shows up, maybe a poltergeist will figure out how to work a keyboard =P
