Um, we do have a help forum here

But the trouble is that comics with only 3 letter names don't show up in search and browse

Wow, I didn't know that about the search engine. I'm glad I clicked on this thread now. Thanks Ozone for the heads up. Luckily I went in the completely opposite direction with one of the longest title names on DD!

Hmm... Almost
The Adventures of Superchum and the Mighty Befrienders

There's this one...

And Fern has some beauties.

Have a comic with a name thats eponymous and iconic, like futurama, penis, zxipi, or elftor.

Depends on the context, really. How it stands out. Like CNN for example.

Ah, I understand.

Though it would be more along the lines of glaring flaw in the search system (...like not having the ability to edit thread titles in the forums) instead of bias. :D
