I've made the corrections above to note the change. <br> <br> However, it doesn't change the fact that QQ is a slam; it is smack-talking in Western gamer circles. I wish you the best of luck on your venture, but you seriously may want to reconsider that moniker. Anyone who's ever logged into the 10-million-boxes sold WoW, those who play games such as TF2 on the Steam network, and I'd bet XBox Live (although I admit my Halo smack-talking is all second-hand knowledge there) will know is as an insult.
