Oh really... well, I guess I'll start Necro then. I still like Sword and Board just as a theme though so I might have an Alt Guardian.

and yes im being serious.
the necro does make one of the best tanks.

The gaurdian tho, can support / tank with signets.
Also can pop its 3 passives to apply to its team mates.

Well. I just took the leap. The game looks interesting. I hope seige warfare will be as fun as it was in DAOC. I'll be in Stormbluff and am interested in being part of the guild.

My tag is Moreir.9875

Not sure what profession I'll play.

Where GW2 differs from most MMOs in regards to guilds is you'll be able to join multiple guilds at once and jump between them with a simple mouse click in-game. So this allows you to be in many different guild types just like you're in many different social circles in real life.


Pretty neat.

I am rather torn on what server to pick.

Would like to roll with the AT crew on Stormbluff but at the same time I have 2 friends that will be playing on Sorrow's Furnace along with their old GW1 group

don't sweat it. You can join multiple guilds, across multiple servers, and the "guesting" function should be open soon enough.

Also--free server transfers for several days, so....

Datalink.6213

I'm thinking Necromancer just because I like Necros. However, I'm not sure. In MMO's I tend to have the most fun being the tank, so I'm thinking maybe Soldier instead.

Nec is pretty much the second best tank in the game right now...maybe the best? so if that's what you want, either Guardian or Nec.

seriously, though...don't expect to be a traditional MMO-style tank in this game.

ID-10-T Error

ID-Ten-T Error[13] (also seen as ID10T and ID107) is a masked jab at the user: when ID-Ten-T is spelled out it becomes ID10T ("idiot"). It is also known as a "Ten-T error" or "ID:10T error". Historical use (circa 1995) includes phone tech support personnel instructing the user/customer to place the line "id=10t" in their config.sys file as a warning to future tech support personnel. The UserFriendly comic strip presented this usage in a cartoon on February 11, 1999.[14]

In United States Navy and Army slang, the term has a similar meaning, though it's pronounced differently:
The Navy pronounces ID10T as "Eye Dee Ten Tango".[15]
The Army pronounces 1D10T as "One Delta Ten Tango".[16]

Throwing out a guild name:

One Delta Ten Tango (ODTT)?

I like the DIAF suggestion, particularly the actual name, but anyone clever enough to think of a good name for TPAD? as it is an AT original....

I don't think "Take Pills and Drown" is the greatest name...but I do love the tag.



ummm, the Bulk Beef Battalion? Brigade? (BBB is lame....)

Could just have TPAD for both name and the abbrev, provided all caps is allowed?

EDIT: I'm not familar with the guild naming rules.

Anyone find a server status page? I'm not keen on the idea of constantly trying to get in; rather watch a show and refresh a status page.

Also, can you pretty much go wild with the character names, or are the pretty draconian about it like Blizzard? Yoda for a small guy warrior seems imminent; squashed because not unique/owned?

I read you need 1 silver to start a guild... that alot, or something that won't take long?

silver doesn't take too long. It is 1000 copper, which can be achieved merching just about anything, and completing a few events. anyone will have it by level 3 or 4.

there are no server queues, no waiting. ANet is rather ninja about handling server population. they have "overflow" instances if one area is too populated. Meaning, you get bumped to an additional, persistent server if the main server is too crowded and can keep on playing. you are put in queue for the main server, and notified, when available, to travel if you want. If in a group, you can choose to join whichever overflow your leader is in (this wasn't possible in BW1, which was probably the largest gripe about the game at the time)


I wouldn't say they are draconian at all about names....though, this coming from a guy who had 5 character names banned from GW1. eh, just try not to offend the retarded prudes that may be out there.

Guild name suggestion:

Draconian Idealist Acolytes of Fascism

tag: DIAF

Ok, I was thinking something like Pebkac [TPAD], but it's kind of lame. I really like the DIAF name, but the tag is, well, commonly abrasive and knowing ANet's history (having 5 of my names banned before.....eh)


what about: Draconian Idealist Acolytes of Fascism [TPAD]

pretty much the same message for both tags. :\

OK, i've written down everyone up to mystic--this means those updated in OP, and all those not currently in OP that I could find.

that means, at the moment of this post...19 members here (including myself). I am handing out 3 other definite invites this weekend, and maybe a few more throughout the week(ToR and GW1 people).
