Talk:Rawr

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I was interested to find that this still floats around on the Internet. AFAIK I coined this phrase back in 1992 using IRC to mean an emphasized lionesque sound, generally reserved for situations when an(other) explative might be less well recieved. Then I find Wikipedia has it redirected to "roar" which is not wholly incorrect, but then it seems the "roar" page should have some mention of RAWR...


RAWR!

now that emo girls have gotten ahold of it, any article that would be started would either descend into complete idiocy or flaming so its rather pointless if you really did create the phrase you should be rather pissed, because its just terrible now. ```` —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.253.37.220 (talk) 11:13, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Rawr

[edit]

A world of warcraft program that is used by players to compare gear. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.37.171.116 (talk) 16:35, 10 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Due to the multiple meanings of "RAWR", I suggest that someone write it its own article, rather than redirect it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.16.65.43 (talk) 00:02, 18 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rawr > Roar (utterance)

[edit]

Since Rawr refers to the animal utterance, and not to any of the other words on the Roar disambiguation page, it should be redirected to Roar (utterance). — The Man in Question (gesprec) · (forðung) 07:31, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is not fully correct. Rawr is one of two things. Either it is a commonly used World of Warcraft program, or it is also very commonly used as part of internet speak. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Watersoftheoasis (talkcontribs) 15:51, 3 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Roar (utterance) is the only link on the roar disambiguation page that rawr could refer to. I agree that the redirect should be changed to point there. I could see this becoming a disambiguation or an article in its own right instead though. Gobonobo T C 23:39, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I've made the edit, and unprotected the page. - Rjd0060 (talk) 00:03, 5 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
