    Curious, why name a server Thornblade?

    I've looked up Thornblade and the only mention of a Thornblade I can find is Jacob Thornblade in Shadow Haven (casino guy) and he doesn't seem worthy to have a server named after him.

    Am I missing something?

    Perhaps they didn't want to use a popular name for something that "may" be very temporary.

    Apparently you're missing the connection between a random loot server and the randomness of a casino? Mangler is named after a dog in rivervale so the bar for being noteworthy enough for a server name is pretty low

    Oooohhh... OK now that makes way more sense. I had no Idea the relevance of "Thornblade" and I didn't bother looking it up because I'm lazy and who cares what it's called... Its just a name, they could call it "Fart" and it'd be fine. We'd have amazing guild names as well. <Europa Fart>, <Lords of Fart>, <Knights of Fart>, <Fart Unleashed>, etc... I'm changing my mind I want the server named Fart.

    Maybe every new server should be called Karen until the crying settles then name it what they were going to at the start.
    Add in a bonus newbie quest called "I want to speak to the Manager" which is only available until the server name is changed post whine-era.
    The reward should be something known as a Customer Service Ticket & can be redeemed for an item called a tear-stained Handkerchief, clicking on the handkerchief bestows an aura of tears falling & the sound of faked crying.

    Looks like that would be the permanent name then...

    our AoC is a animated two-hand sword:

    Any criticism of this is herby racists towards all animated weapons, and cleric swarm-pet hammers will be dispatched immediately to cancel your whole family.

    Not sure what you are trying to show here that is Throne not Thorn.

    Every rare is a pull of the casino slot machine handle. Do I get a super nice item from this trash rare NPC, or do I get a junk item from an NPC that I would never camp on a normal loot rules server ?

    It's alright I've always thought it was a thornblade.

    Potentially, at least I can say that I played as far as the 26th Expansion before finally getting pissed enough to quit (for over a month), the first time I quit I was gone for almost 7 years (2008-2015).

    Ok, I'm commandeering this thread. This is now the hype thread for Thornblade, which of course will be the best server ever. Better than Mischief, which will be dumb and have no friends.

    Who's on team Thornblade?

    I think I'm going to start on Thornblade, seems like it will be a fight to get into Mischief if most try to go there. Will be interesting to see how guilds handle this announcement though.

    I could swear that somewhere I had seen a lore site listing "Thornblade" as the name of Bristlebane's dagger - the one that you can see in his symbol too I would presume. But I can't figure out where that was or find any other reference to it now.
