Group id #12640 : Quantum

Not easy to find a cool unused name these days.

Sorry, what? Not easy to find a name?? Did we run out of words in English language already? Come on.

Why are we not treating this as we always did in the scene? Calling it lame and forcing this group to find a new name? Oxygen64 had to do it, why these guys do not? Someone please explain to me this double standard.

This is (probably) how the chinese come up with temporary brands for their trash products that flood Amazon etc. Come up with a unique brand name, set up 1000 fake rave reviews, sell a few until real reviews start trashing the rating, pull the product down, publish the product with another unique, imaginary brand name, rinse and repeat. There's no biz like ecomm biz :D

(sorry for going slightly off-topic. Here's a random, completely unrelated picture from the internet for distraction)

BUYING!

And "Peacemaker is the name of a series of fictional characters originally owned by Charlton Comics and later acquired by DC Comics. The original Peacemaker first appeared in Fightin' 5 #40 (November 1966)" - The earliest known use of the noun peacemaker is in the Middle English period (1150—1500). OED's earliest evidence for peacemaker is from before 1425, in 'Lanterne of Liȝt'.

But I think I win. "Hedning" is a Swedish word meaning "heathen" - introduced in old norse ("heþninge") around the viking age. :P

But noone will beat Almighty God, at least not if you are Christian.

Wasn't there a cracking group named Quantum in the 80s?

i plead guilty for stealing the Kraze group name from Kraze of "The Party" fame. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8sRHJayIqM :) ... Though I'm not sure if it was RokDaZone or me who came up with it first.

I think many have misunderstood the point of this thread, it's about reusing names already used in the scene, not the outside world inspiration for them.

Well no, this thread was about the german group Quantum ;-) And since it seems the hassle with polish Quantum rebuild are solved - I ask the moderators to close this thread; pretty please, with cream on top; ?out of scene drama error.

But since it's "discuss this group" - is it even possible or correct to close this thread? :-D
