Who is Tachy and why he goes coventry ?
 

I'm not a native english speaker and can't understand who is Tachy and why he goes coventry ?

No-one knows the exact reason. The dev who made the feature says it's personal :)

tachy: rapid heartbeat... or someone why the nerves
coventry: where everything is peace...

mix both: ... you go to the coventry to calm your nerves

Sending someone to Coventry is just an English phrase that means you are ignoring someone.

I understood that Tachy was an actual forum user somewhere that needed to be ignored ........

I must say I love this thread's title... ha ha! :D

You Brits crack me up ;) What is in Coventry...anything?

Nothing of interest ;)

coventry is better defined here: http://wordnet.princeton.edu/perl/webwn?s=coventry

Coventry is better defined as boring :D

Chris

i agree, went there once wont go again lol

Coventry is the location of the tower of infinite sorrow at the edge of the enchanted wood where Johnson Package went to rescue the gay monkey in a basket.

ahhh...okay, that makes it perfectly clear :D

Spot on :D

Tachy - can also mean when something is rubbish, cheap looking, naff. But I love the explanation that Tachy was a member that needed to be ignored.

didnt know about this... I could be taken by some people as annoying back in the day...

(screenshots got lost with time... but each comment had a screenshot)

hmmm, and I always thought tachy was like inappropriate. Its like that in the states :D
