Did you start a guild years ago and and give it a silly name as a goof? Did the guild manage to survive and now has lots of members but still has a silly name? Ever wish you could change the name? Help is on the way! shotens recently posted a request on the EQ2 Forums:
So what I ask is for the Dev team to put out a product that we can spend our hard earned money on that allows us to change a guild name.
and got this startling response from Rothgar:
It’s done and should be available soon.

On the one hand, I’m glad that those with silly names will be able to change them if they choose (nothing wrong with silly names btw). On the other hand, guilds that have gotten a bad name on a server will now be able to change their name and confuse the population. On the third hand (three hands???) it will allow guilds who have gotten a bad name to change their name if the leader who caused them to get the bad name in the first place decides to leave the guild. Since it usually doesn’t take very long for the average person to figure out when a guild falls apart and gets re-formed under a different name, I don’t really see this as a problem. Unless, of course, my guild decides to start taking votes on what to call our guild and “Pink Fairies of Norrath” starts leading in the polls. 🙂
This makes me happy. I have some alts in a guild i’m the last remaining leader of. I use the guild for storage but i don’t generally like the name of it “Rodent’s Redemption”. Now i can use it for more then storage lol. I can change the name to something more fitting. You can’t call it roden’ts redemption if it has a ratonga shadowknight in it lol. I may call it Rodent rampage or Ratonga Inquisition. 😀
Nobody expects the Ratonga Inquisition…
