Or is there someone else out there that pronounces BYOND, bond. For some reason when I started BYOND I thought it was said bond and it feels awkward calling it beyond. Its always a struggle when talking to someone else who uses BYOND cause I start to say bond then have to stop mid-word and say beyond. Maybe I'm crazy or something. =[
There are plenty of people who mispronounce it. I must admit it puzzles me how anyone can miss that BYOND = beyond. I think maybe when I signed up there were more puns (ie, into the great BYOND).

Odds are you just read the James BYOND joke when you were creating your key and it got stuck in your head. =P
I don't think anyone has given it a proper pronunciation key. Imagine saying beyond, without the e. "buh-yond," say that quickly. That's how I say it. It's a dumb way to say it, but I can't be calling it "beyond." Personal preference, y'know? A lot of people pronounce it different. The most sensible pronunciation I've heard was "bai-yond."

Yeah Beyond just sounds weird to me, it doesn't roll off the tongue haha. And I feel stupid saying it.
I never mention it by the term, "BYOND" while speaking in person. I always use "DM".

But I'd say the most sensible pronunciation is "B-yond". You know, like "E-mail".

What?! It's pronounced "e-mail?!" I've been saying "emill" this whole time!

I must be mentally retarded for pronouncing it "beyond."
Byond is a fun word because it reminds me of batman.
this has been discussed several times. not worth re-hashing. please use forum search!
