The true <Azure Guard> reestablished!

Azure Guard is currently functioning in a realm of hard core raiding and racing that it is largely new to the guild (the last year or two). In the six years I led, I created a strong association with the name as a leader of the casual players. The name Azure Guard is hotly burned into the minds of Devs and, frankly, with much animosity. Your point is very well made, however. "Why do I feel I have anything to do with the going ons of p99?" The guild Azure Guard has a duality of reputation at the moment. We are actively one of the top guilds on another server under the same name as a casual guild, which is straying from the brand that is being recrafted here on p99.

In short:

1. The Azure Guard on p99 will benefit in political conversations and particularly with Devs if they change their name to fit their role on the server as a leader in the hard-core realm. And may you be blessed with many pixels in your hunts! I wish you the best!

2. The reputation that exists on both servers, which is vastly different at the moment, will not be adversely affected or otherwise. A simple and clean split. As you put it, "what do I have to do with Azure Guard here." And the answer will now be, "absolutely nothing". Because in fact, they will be operating under a new name.

I feel no negativity towards the players in Azure Guard here. I hope you find great enjoyment on this server.

Spoken like a true politician! We will somehow benefit from your vindictive and entirely unnecessary seizure of that which you, genuinely, do not own. The guild belongs to those who play in it. Despite what the GMs may think, you don't.

"A simple and clean split" are you barking mad? Azure Guard has been progressing, just like every other guild before it. Instead of just being happy that the players have taken that which you created to the next level, you are going to throw a hissy fit and take the name away because you don't like the fact that AG isn't a bunch of casuals anymore?

Now that's a laugh.
