Clarification: Nox and MOX spelling. - Pinko - 02-22-2012 Nox is written with a capital "N" only, is a Gallic drug named after the Latin word for "night", and is in no way related to MOX, an abbreviated form for a capital vessel combustible. As a matter of fact, I wonder why must it take a capital N. Maybe it's because Cardamine always had a capital "C".

On a more constructive note: This thread actually did clarify things for me.. I honestly thought it was NOX. But I guess now I'll call it nox.

Capitalised first letter for a proper noun; ie. because it's a name, and secondly, because the names of all commodities in the game are capitalised.

On the forums or in server chats, no one needs to feel similarly obligated. We do have a few branded commodities now that are proper nouns, though. FloraGro, Holo-tainment Bands, HazMat Canisters...I think that's all. And no, Hypno-tainment Bands isn't really a brand, since they're just hacked versions of Holo bands. Xenobiotic Filters could be considered a brand name, but I don't feel strongly about that one either way - if the Planetform-Cryer-Synth consortium wants to consider it a brand name they can. |
