Crest, Davy, and Crim are right. It's one thing to change a spelling to get a guild name that means something to you. It's another thing entirely to out and out copy another guild name. I actually had that happen with one of my first attempts at a guild. I created Don't Tread On Me almost a year ago. About 2 months later I see running around on Tuga, Dont Tread On Me. as a guild name. Speaking as a GM I was throughly offended to see another guild with what I felt was my guild name. Removing an aphostrophe and adding a period does not a different guild name make. Nor does adding a number after, which should only be done with direct permission of the original guild GM. As I said before, a guild name should mean something to you. If it doesn't no amount of fiddling with spelling and punctuation will make using another guild's name ok.
