Is this some sort of lingo to call Karkand..Karkland now or does everone simply think thats what it is?

Most of the people who play are stupid.

Not really.A lot of people just dont care.

I used to call it Kargrand or something. I don't really give a flying crap about the names, I dont see why you do.

If Karkand was called North Pole Santa's Workshop I wouldnt even twitch lol

oh and people might just type karland because its more familiar, in that there is a land at the end of the word

C'mon, we can't have at LEAST ONE thread on TBF2 where someone doesn't get narky or start a flame war..........fire up people........entertain us! entertain us!

Seriously, this is a real answer to this question:

The name is a foreign one to most players, we english speakers will naturally tend to anglosize the pronounciation.
As a lot of western towns and cities have the "land" suffix in their name, so we look at the word "karkand" and imagine that it should have an L in it too.

Not very entertaining though is it D3ton8r? This might be a simpler explaination:

It's a land where everyone keeps karking it.
Damn thoseM203 bunny hoppers...

Its like people in Natural Selection - they called turrets 'turrents'.

[Platinum Bastard]

Lets ask EA if they want to change it in their next patch. Solves the discussion

[rombaft]

I have written karkland sometimes, my deepest excuse for that, I must be the biggest moron on this planet, or wait I think the topic starter is an even bigger moron by starting threads about karkand/karkland

No clue. I used to call it Karkland myself because I just skimmed through the map titles, I never really took enough time to carefully read it. But one day, the map was loading really slow and I actually read everything on that page and I found out that there was no L in Karkand, so I was like, "hmmm, okay, its called Karkand...Karkland sounds better."

Karkland and Kirkland is more familar to us Englishmen and American than Karkand. Sounds like a dinosaur or a name of those flying critters in Starcraft.
