 | View Full Version : When will people learn to spell correctly in ads? The Prohacker 03-26-2007, 05:21 PM I've sent a note to our ad traffic manager to notify the client, thanks for letting us know! linux-tech 03-26-2007, 05:31 PM Maybe it really IS a "fully manged VPS". ;) SoftWareRevue 03-26-2007, 06:02 PM People will "learn to spell correctly in ads" when no one pays attention to the misspellings in ads. :wht: I think creative typos is the way to go. Jamie Harrop 03-26-2007, 06:05 PM Maybe it really IS a "fully manged VPS". ;) Maybe it is a fully managed PR stunt. :D I always wonder whether these mitakes are actually mistakes. :erm: Edit: Dennis beat me to it. :smash: the_pm 03-26-2007, 06:27 PM http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/manged Manged: Refers to anything that is mangled or damaged, usually beyond repair. THAT is not the type of creative mistake I would use to describe my services! Fully Manged VPS :rofl: Jamie Harrop 03-26-2007, 06:33 PM THAT is not the type of creative mistake I would use to describe my services! Sure it is. There are that many companies using creative mistakes these days, The Fully Manged VPS Company had to take the concept a little further to get us talking. :) Ok... yeah, that really isn't the type of creative mistake I'd use either. David 03-26-2007, 09:56 PM It's been up for days, hopefully you guys didn't just notice it today? I've been slapping my forehead wondering what sort of morons release this stuff every time I see it. IH-Rameen 03-26-2007, 10:58 PM Never noticed until it was pointed out.. Manish Gori 03-27-2007, 12:40 AM I think creative typos is the way to go. I completely agree. Jag 03-27-2007, 01:32 AM Nothing like good free pr like this thread. Come'on, you haven't heard of manged vps yet? And you all are supposed to be cutting edge, pft! ;) We dont make our own ads, we pay for them. I failed to pick up on this mistake when I put the ad up. Someone pointed it out to me days ago as well but I forgot all about it by the end of the day. Doh! IPsecure 03-27-2007, 02:42 AM Managed wouldn't of worked. They would of had to make the text smaller . ;) I doubt that a lot of these mistakes are on purpose but at the very least they do bring attention to the ad. Attention that i for one would not pay otherwise. Googled 03-28-2007, 12:42 PM Your horizontal ad has the same typo. G Jag 03-28-2007, 12:45 PM cool, thanks for noticing it. buy more hosting ;) seriously, thanks. jayzee 03-28-2007, 01:26 PM Free spot checking here. unity100 03-28-2007, 06:20 PM You misunderstood - its not a spelling mistake - its actually a new service. Its server mangement service, a new and trendy service which is all the hype nowadays. unity100 03-28-2007, 06:25 PM Ah - thats another way of looking at it - it might be a fully nintentional spelling mstake for more puclicity. |
