Longer guild abreviations
For example say your guild is RIP. normally you use RIP so you can be some kid named Yo Dawg, RIP . With my idea you could be classy and be Rest In, Peace

This forum should instead be called "Suggestions for Era Accuracy" imo

Purple Guardians of Honor [PGoH] existed during this era, probably before. It was an exception, of course, done by the GMs, but it could happen.Karik Verlee wrote:During t2a the limit was 3 letters.

1/2 the fun with creating a guild in t2a using the 3 character acronym, was coming up with something clever. The limitations made it more interesting.

[quote="jono1994"]ok i really think that u should add on the Elves race but still keep the original format of the game and also put in Necromancy [/quote]
Re: Longer guild abreviations
Initially you could have your entire guild name as your abbreviation, if you hadn't set an abbreviation already, this was during Pre-T2A. The limit for abbreviations was set to 4 (for entered ones) in April 98. Does anyone have any info one when this was changed to 3?
Also, I think this would be a good trophy reward prize, as the 4 letter abbreviations would be grandfathered on OSI.

Yeah use the not era-accurate trophy system to implement a not era-accurate game mechanic.Hemperor wrote: Also, I think this would be a good trophy reward prize, as the 4 letter abbreviations would be grandfathered on OSI.

Re: Longer guild abreviations
I believe I just explained how you would still see these during T2A as they would be grandfathered. I have a previous topic suggesting that trophy rewards should be things that were grandfathered although no longer achievable at our point in T2A.Pac wrote:Yeah use the not era-accurate trophy system to implement a not era-accurate game mechanic.Hemperor wrote: Also, I think this would be a good trophy reward prize, as the 4 letter abbreviations would be grandfathered on OSI.

Re: Longer guild abreviations
this would be a good reward. it doesn't hurt the server at all, it's a name. there won't be many anyways with the cost high.

Seems like something that would cater to the LEET PVP crowd (just assuming).Notoriety wrote:this would be a good reward. it doesn't hurt the server at all, it's a name. there won't be many anyways with the cost high.

Re: Longer guild abreviations
