Wilderness Guardians FUCK YEAH!!! @ Fire *"Never walk alone." - Too close to the football thing "Use protection." - Trust Durex *"From the ashes and through the fire... we march." - THROUGH THE FIRE AND THE FLAMES WE CARRY ONNNNNNNNNN But the others are good I noticed a lot of clans have Latin mottos. I don't know much latin, but I know "Semper Paratus" - which means Always Ready - isn't taken yet. --------------------  [05:42] <+WG_Keanu> I think I got a semi just looking at the pic [05:42] <%kat> same | ||

Something I would expect from a knight. Sayings like "Never walk alone" would sound a million times better to me when converted into the more chivalrous medieval tongue. (And I realise this is just my taste) "Ride not in solitude/exile" --------------------  | ||

OR "Fear not the darkness, nor any enemy, you are home." "Come back with your shield, or on it." <- Direct quote from the movie "300". Not original, but it's better than "This iis SPARTA!"  .--------------------

That's a pretty good idea, Gene. We should practice that sort of tongue, seeing as RuneScape is a fantasy mmorpg. It doesn't seem too archaic or outdated for this sort of thing. --------------------

I really liked that one! But I say we need a new motto. The clans can seriously say things like "The Wilderness Guardians failed, I mean, where is the wilderness?", but it will get better with a good motto to like explain our name. --------------------  Joined WG - 24th of June 2007 - Never left. | ||

| IRC Nickname: Masamune39 Group: Ex-Member Posts: 164 Member No.: 2276 Joined: May 29, 2010 Total Events Attended: 8 | "Hail, brothers!" <- Was inspired by the famous greeting, "-Crosses Sabres-", used by The Sabres. "Hail, brethren!" <- Variation of the above. "Hail, Guardians!" <- Simple, but seems effective as a greeting or spam. "Hail, the mighty Guardians that stand before you." <- Longer version of the above. "Brothers in arms, we shall never falter, nor shall we perish." <- I think this is nice, shows fellowship at the sword and unwillingness to be brought down. "Spears shall be shaken, shields shall be splintered!" <- Direct quote from the movie "The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King". --------------------

 IRC Nickname: Gorgemaster Group: Elite Guardian Posts: 9840 Member No.: 3 Joined: December 26, 2007 Total Events Attended: 540 | THey need to be short and snappy, not like a whole sentence, otherwise we can't really spam them during a war lolz. "Lest honor may be lost." "Enemies of the Wicked" ^ Two of Firelion's that I really like.  --------------------    | ||

| IRC Nickname: Masamune39 Group: Ex-Member Posts: 164 Member No.: 2276 Joined: May 29, 2010 Total Events Attended: 8 | Then, I like the shortest ones I came up with. They could be greetings in homage to The Sabres. They could be used before and after raids/wars. "Hail, Guardian!" "Lest honour may be lost" <- Seems like a good one, Firelion's idea. Also, I think "honor" should be spelled in the old english sense. Actually, I'm pretty sure that is the correct way to spell it over there in Great Britain, unless I'm mistaken. "Fear nothing, brother" "Ride not in solitude" <- Lordy's idea, pretty good. --------------------

 IRC Nickname: Harmony Group: Ex-Member Posts: 333 Member No.: 2281 Joined: June 4, 2010 Total Events Attended: 26 | I really like 2 of the new suggestions. Firelion's "Enemies of the Wicked" and Multi's "So Others May Live" or possible re-phasing it since I keep doing that in my head to "That Others May Live" (isn't that an actual military motto? I feel like I've heard it before...which is why I like it, its memorable and familiar) Both are short and easily spammable and both speak to WGs anti rpking stance. -------------------- Hollow Fyre ~  ~ Lion Tamer ºO•-)•––––––––•(-• •°• °• oOHarmonyOo •°•°• •-)•––––––––•(-•Oº The Most Strongest and Influential Army | ||

All his mottos were from military origins, I think. Missed one, Matt: "The Few. The Proud. The Wilderness Gurdians." lol -------------------- --------- 獅の炎 ---------- ----------- 忍☯者 ----------- | ||

 IRC Nickname: Snowzak Group: Emeritus Posts: 1193 Member No.: 5 Joined: December 26, 2007 Total Events Attended: 67 | I used to like "Guardians unite". Simple, but unity is all you need. It's more of a war cry than a motto, though. But it just kicked ass, walking up in the wild, the leader calls out "Guardians unite", and the tower goes up, "Unite! Unite! Unite! Unite!" --------------------  London RL Meeting attendee - Paris RL meeting attendee Joined WG in October 2005 - Original DG - Ex-Raid Leader Proud Council Member from October 21st 2007 to May 19th 2008 | ||
