AoC: Official Goodjer Servers and Guild Names

Running Man & wife on RP-PVP. I'm horrible at thinking of guild names though.

Sorry Wired... just one more...

Capulatio Norma or as we may know it

[color=white]Decapitation Organization[/color]

RP-PVP for me please.

Out of curiosity, what is the argument for splitting the RP-PVP and PVP groups?

It seems like a win-win but what do I know...

Fewer dumb character names and you have the opportunity to attack RP'ers!

شهادة الوفاة

It is technically Arabic characters but that is the best font i could find on this POS at work.

There is no word I can think of to use for Gamer i will dig through my lexicon tonight when I get home.

Here's some random ideas for guild names based off the Howard stories:
The Right Hand of Doom, Sons of Ayras, The Pheonix in the sword, Big Elephant sitting on a tower, Hyborians with Jobs

Hyborians with Jobs gets my vote. It's simple and clearly GWJ.

I will be playing PvE with 5+ buddies (more will join as time goes on). I will do my darndest to get the to join the GWJ server.

Historically RP server populations are low.
Personally i dont care about the names, and pretty sure the number of asshats on all server types will befuddle the sane mind.
On the PvP side we'll be able to be allied at the start with 1 or 2 other guilds.

I still think that the RP servers on Conan are going to buck the trend. At the very least the highest RP-PvP server should be viable, but I'm betting even more will be (viable). Heck, look at our own distribution of players!

Yeah, I think the whole RP is low pop argument doesn't really wash. But what do I know.

I know I'll have characters on boht PvP and PvE servers. I would prefer RP-PvP but will go wherever majority goes.

As far as names go, I like the combination of what was already offered: Decapitators with Jobs.

I know taht AoC has the chance to be different. It'd be cool if it does end up that way, but going to play it safe. Plus having a couple other honorable guilds as allies is a pretty big draw. At least for me it is.

Odds are that we'll need some sort of alliances to get into some of the bigger end-game aspects. I don't think we'll be consolidated enough to do it on our own, unfortunately.

Speaking of Alliances, any information on how they might be formed? Is there going to be physical in-game mechanics or just loose agreements?

Finally, bucking the trend a bit, I am going to suggest just some normal English guild names. Not sure any of them are any good, but at least it's more food for thought:

The Unconquered
Heralds of War
Portents of Fate
Hyborian Harbingers
Guardians of Thuria
Black River Sentinels

Try to stay on track, fellas.

I was intending to have this thread as a discussion on what our guild name(s) should be, but decided to keep it as a placeholder for the official Goodjer server list once we get the names. Lets try to keep on topic and not delve into discussion on why PvE is better than PvP and vice versa.

* Please post what server type you intend to roll on in this thread. Most of us will be rolling on a couple different servers to help each other out and bolster the ranks a bit, please only post what your main server type of interest will be. This will give us a good way to see who we'll be playing with at launch.

We've done the RP-pvp vs pvp thing to death... lets talk guild names...

Personally the reason I've looked at other languages is to prevent the hunting of our guild due to an aggressive name.. I know in the past there have been plenty of people who hunt guild members simply based on the fact that their name invokes some sort of badassery... By placing it in another language, it allows your guild to know the meaning while keeping others in the dark.... Well .. those who are lazy enough that they wont throw it in a translator...

RP-PvP to start unless it turns into a ghost town then I'll just roll to regular PvP.

As for guild names I'm at a loss. I was really hoping for "Gaybeardating" but that seems to be taken!

One point of consideration, the guild name for the RP server will need to be more in line with the Hyborian theme. I don't think it will matter as much for the other servers.

I would love to see a name that is consistent across the different servers.

After a bit of thought I've decided to head to the regular PvP server instead. I figure if it gets annoying at times, I can simply hop on with the PvE folk to get my non-asshattery fix.

I'm thinking RP-PvP but will head wherever the rest of you guys end up. More friendly faces, less jerkwads.

I derive great joy from killing asshats.

GWJ Militia

PvP for me, but this is dependent on grouping opportunities at my PST friendly play times (I'm on the east coast but my gaming sessions typically start after 11pm EST) . If RP-PvP has more people that play at compatible times I would have no problem switching over. I plan on having characters on all three servers anyway.

As for guild names:
Pict Over
Koth Koth Fizz Fizz
Kush Job
Team Cimmeria World Police
Gundermem with Jobs
GWJ

I like Decapitators with Jobs so far, it has a nice ring to it. I'm all for any guild names that incorporate something Goodjer related.

Team Cimmeria world police

Winner!

I agree : Team Cimemria World Police is pretty awesome. Put that as the stand in for the PvP server guild?

Dear God no. Royal veto. Ha!

I will be carebearing it. I will also have an alt on the most populous PVP guild server.

I think the guild name should be related somehow to GWJ.

Legion of Goodjer?

Pigpen will be on all three servers...but first is rp-pvp, second is pve Put me in coach!

As for name...especially on the rp server, my hope/vote is we go away from humor/silliness...all good fun, but this is conan...if you want silliness and humor, go play charades or chutes and ladders...this is the land of Conan for goodness sake...where men are men, women are voluptuous, and, well, death is certain...

That said, was talking with Shaderaven, and I'd suggest along the lines of the say Alliance of Gamers or something translated to Scandinavian...

lots of other suggestions to come later...but thats my two cents!

Gamers with Jobs :p
