Okay, well I can't go to the poll since I am not friended to your RL journal but:
The Mysterious Masked Linguist's take on Cum vs Come"
"Cum" makes a HORRIBLE verb. This is just from a tense aspect, not even a vocabulary/spelling/sociolinguistic aspect. Tense wise, "Cum" has to be irregular or the past tense becomes "cummed", and new additions to the language will almost always follow the regular verb template. It sort of works in present tense, and in progressive aspect "cumming". But nobody wants that past tense.
Cum as a noun. I'm actually okay with this, though I prefer "come". It's a little unusual to noun verbs instead of the other way around so I can see why some people don't like "come" as a noun.
