Looked on the wiki, and seriously, who cares how people in an online fantasy MMO pronounce the word aegis? The pronunciation guide on aegolism is especially belittling and has no place on the wiki. Nobody should ever be talked down to like that. Especially, since it is a completely made up word anyways and the writer is just imposing his opinion.

Also, aigis was originally pronounced with a hard g, and through the years has had varying pronunciations from egis to ejis. Variations in pronunciations are a natural part of language. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%CE%B...#Ancient_Greek

So really, drop the delusions of superiority and stop being bothered with how people pronounce the word Aegis. I know that telling people on online elfsims how to pronounce Greek words makes you think that you are more educated and smarter than them, but really you're just a pretentious asshole. Thanks.
