• Hey Guest,

    As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. The UK and OFCOM has singled out this community and have been focusing its censorship efforts here. It takes a good amount of resources to maintain the infrastructure for our community and to resist this censorship. We would appreciate any and all donations.

Some years ago I prefered SS but then I changed to SaSu. I am not sure whether this is representative for other members. My gut feeling says SaSu became more and more popular within the time but I could be completely wrong.

I am German and the abbreviation SS gives me one bad association. But only because I am political junkie. I think it is irrational and barely anyone has this association.

In the end it is not that important and is probably dependent on the gut feeling. I doubt people have sophisticated replies which of them is superior. But you guys and girl can surprise me.

I don't care about the abbreviation, as long as its easy to type, I'm fine with it. In this case, SS is better because I can type it quicker than I can type SaSu.

I prefer SS because it sounds like a ship, and one day I hope to sail away from this life.

I use both SS and SaSu but preferably SS bc it's shorter to type.

SS makes me think of nazi shit, SaSu is too conspicuous though. To me its just "the suicide forum".

Yup, and for that same reason I'm not fond of SaSu.
Also reminds me of Zazu from the Lion King

I think SaSu sounds cooler. Plus, everyone probably knows what a different SS means, and not in a good way…

I think it would make sense to abbreviate it to ss., with the period, cause that is what is in the favicon. It avoids the political connotation.
