I hate whoever changed this nomenclature. It's PM and I will die on this hill.

    Turns out most PMs weren't actually private since site admins and mods could see them, so they switched to 'direct message' as a more honest description.

    I am too afraid to search this.. I thought PMs meant menstural cycles in some cultures.. Like british if I am not mistaken.

    I would assume that prime minister would be more common in Britain. But even if it is also something with the menstrual cycle what would be wrong with that? It's just something some people have.

    When trying to check the first result I got was actually the plus-minus sign (\pm in LaTeX) which is also cool.

    I hate the implication of what it meant going from calling them PMs, for Private Messages, to being DM, for Direct Message.

    I want PMs, not DMs.

    Game master is better. Less Dungeon focused. Dungeon Master can also raise eyebrows when people think of Dungeon for BDSM.

    Game Master is better.

    This made slightly less sense before I remembered that manga is supposed to be read right to left.
