A suggestion that won't get implemented (in General)

But I had to post it anyway.... a botcheck generator! It would cost a BA, but you could dictate the words for it to manhandle in that special way only the CB botcheck generator does. The only problem with it is the potential for abuse. Alas.... it's probably another one of those silly cosmetic changes that doesn't make enough of a difference anyway, like a female flag for users and minions or the removal of the double exclamation marks after a battle cry. But hey, why not whine while it's still change month, right? ^.~

good whine improves with age.

I don't get what Karmic is saying but I figure

a. He wants to spend BA to generate botcheck words for the database.
b. He wants to spend BA to generate botcheck words so he can test his reading skills.

About a: fat chance and introduce too many ways for abuse.
About b: don't we have botcheck generator somewhere so you can test your skill. I remember reading about it somewhere.

More likely 3: he wants to make up some amusing botchecks to use for player/character pictures ("Look! I got jon//dork! LOLOLOLZ!"). Small minds do amuse easily after all.

I can't see a purpose to doing this, but couldn't you just search online for the font Jon used, and make your own "botcheck" images in photoshop?

i bet if someone sent Jon $10 - $20 he would find some spare time =)

Actually, I just had so much fun grabbing my extra $ that I remembered an old request of Reebok's... random 'crazy' times like the scheduled ones! I wonder how long it would take for everyone to get informed and jump on CB. That is, the people who weren't already playing. ^-^ Come on, Jon, change month is almost over, do another misc. changelog post! Er, please?
