JekRendar Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 It has come to my attention that =A=, may not be avaible to us as a tag, because of the "='s". We can not use "A", because that's taken, I saw someone running around with it, and asked what his PA is, and it's Azre'el, or something. I propose a Name Change. Personally, when we founded ourselves, the name, "Associates" was mostly temporary, but eventually stuck. The new name would be something, generic, yet Star Warsy, neutral, yet encompasing our Combat and Merchant groups. I don't have any specific ideas yet. What do you think? Also, with our PA Hall, so close to complete, I say Corzip sets a date for placement. We set it at least a weeks' notice and everyone where formal attire. No armor, just look good. We could take screenshots on the group in front of it, and set off fireworks. We may want to wait until after the 14th, so Jatari can be with us. Also, with this momentous occassion (I can't spell tonight), we need for PA Offices. Like, PA Events, PA Resource Organization (not including money), etc. BTW, what ever happened to setsuko? If she left, I'll take over the Combat Group, unless someone disagrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 I feel we do need something different as our name. Something catchy, but not long. and as for the occasion, i will be there, i got all my nice stuff to.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackrabbit Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 I don't think a lot of people will want to change the name because it's been The Associates for so long. I don't really have an opinion though. As far as the PA tag...I'm guessing ASS is out of the picture . [Edit] Oh, and as far as the get-together, my character doesn't dress up . And as far as Set, last I heard she was moving...somewhere, and travelling a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think the name will change. although ... (this has never happened before) i do agree that we need to look for a new abbreviation.... i will try to make =A= at first... but seeing that almost all other abbreviation beside the names are letters.. and no special marks... i have a bad feeling about it.

Jan Gaarni Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 How about TA? The Associates. And no, Set is still around. She just hasn't got the game yet, or her new CPU (as far as I know). Why isn't she on the forums much? I think she feels alittle like an outsider, not being able to play the game yet and all. I know I did the following week after release. Can't imagine how it is for way over a month. Must be pure torture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xx_Patman_xX Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 I really want to be there at the kick-off. Maybe we should open it after corzip fully furnishes it. It would be more special. Plus I really want to cater for the occasion and plan a feast. Hopefully Ill be back in time. Corzip give me an estimate as to when you will place it. I will be back late sunday EST time.

Deathstalker Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 Some ideas for the new symbol AAA ASSO ASO TA ASA I'm just throwing things out there most of these dono really work but we need something since the =A= will not work whihc bugs me. Also give money to Neoc for the purchasing of the 45k of steel we need please it will cost about 200k and we have as of last night 120k of it please give money I do not want the same few people who have been paying for everything to pay for the PA hall this is the time to openup your pocket book and give money. I personally gave 30k, I do not expect people to give that much but like 4k would be nice thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JekRendar Posted August 7, 2003 Author Share Posted August 7, 2003 so your only thinking about jatari? what about reaper? What if I don't like Reaper? J/k. I didn't know, Jatari made a big deal out of his vacation, though. the leaders are already discussing this What is this with "the leaders", I thought we were a democracy. I don't know how Europe runs, but here in the U.S., the public knows just about everything that involves the public and their safety. Right now, "the leaders" keep everything so tight lipped, you'd think we were still in the Cold War! I really wish "the leaders" would include the other members, or something or other, to keep their heads from getting too big. *wink, wink Wraith* just like that.... take over.... coup..... revolution.....hehe sorry.. no way. Why? Afraid of losing your power and throne? Ok, fine, I'll go along with you. I won't take over the Combat Group. I'll make myself Community Manager! (100 Credits if you can the Dev's Real Name and Forum Handle with this SOE title.) ASSO I like this. Of course, we would have to spell it: AssO /snicker /endrant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murashu Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 I like TA short and simple. Why are we buying steel for the PA Hall now? I thought the reason for having 50 million harvestors was to harvest the PA Hall stuff. Last I heard all of our ore harvestors was sitting on a steel hotspot and Corzip was going to switch them over when he didnt need ore anymore.

JekRendar Posted August 7, 2003 Author Share Posted August 7, 2003 Well, Wraith, I was only the using the U.S. and Europe as a symbol, not as an example. Hey guys, I have a new name idea: The Associates of Naboo Or change of "of Naboo" with something else, like "Of Freedom", or what have you.

Right now, "the leaders" keep everything so tight lipped, you'd think we were still in the Cold War! That's funny, I could have sworn more and more people are in the PA meeting on Sundays. It's actually becomming a problem. I really wish "the leaders" would include the other members, or something or other, to keep their heads from getting too big. *wink, wink Wraith* Isn't that what we are doing?

dow_30 Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 I like TA. I also like the name "The Associates". Some have expressed its too plain. What is the point of some cryptic name......we aren't the survivors of Alderaan, we weren't in a war together, we aren't the =A= Team, we are simply a group of people who "associate" with eachother for mutual benefit. Nothing more, nothing less. No crescent this, or children of that, or for god sakes not anything "of Naboo". I live on Naboo because that is what the majority wants, but I hate the planet. I don't want to be associated with Naboo. Also, that name is quite limiting. If we expand to a shop on Corellia who want to buy stuff from "The asses on Naboo"?

While I live on Naboo, and have come to love it aswell, I am a child of Corellia, and always will have my roots there. Not much I can do about my family history. We don't need anything like that.

Xx_Patman_xX Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 We arent just people who associate with people! We are truely the only large PA that is filled with people who are genuine friends. All the time I see people in the cantina of the same PA sitting on opposite ends of the room, never talking to each other. I know whenever I see a fellow =A=, I always take the time to chat with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 yep, im the same way, you can ask anyone in the PA that i know..*knudge murashu, corzip, neoc, froobuk, and too many other people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
