   Looking for the edge could trigger TLC to feel a need imposing restrictions more severe than the current ones. So please consider, there is a risk you’re going to make things harder for the rest of us.

I disagree - both about using “l3go” and about greater restrictions. Pushing towards an edge means that TLG will need to delinate it more clearly - which means less grey area.

as for the “l3go”, i think your average user would think something like ‘l three g o? what does that mean?’ - and your average nettie would realize the 1337, and thus know that TLG would never use 1337 in their webnames. so, i would suppose it would be okay, but you’re right - it is pushing the limits.
