Default [POLL] Return old Horus name?

As GameSamba deal is over can we have old server name back please? I really miss Horus and getting this name back will be nice for many people. For me Haven sounds silly - this server have nothing common with "haven".

---

Bahh i messed poll question... please fix it to Horus...

I like this idea, and not out of nostalgia. Haven is a place of safety, Horus was the god of war. The latter is certainly a more suitable name.

All other server names are names of gods. Horus and Raven are also gods. Haven is not a god. That's why haven should get a name change. But is it important? not really.

Horus does seem to make more sense from a war perspective, but I don't really care about the name to be honest, just as long as the server runs fine. Which it does not.

Thumbs up

I agree, I like the idea, but question is how many players from Horus are still playing Regnum... If it is not trivial to change the name then I say don't bother...

It seems like a rather trivial change just for the sake of a handful of peoples nostalgia or elitism or whatever the reason may be.

It may not be a name of an Egyptian god like all the other servers but I still see it as a fitting name considering the history of the respective servers. Two servers on the brink of death combined to create a 'haven' of activity for its players. For a time it did feel like a haven compared to the servers we came from.

So no, I don't see why NGD should waste time on this. Even though Gamesamba is out of the picture, the server is still not Horus and it will never be. I know most of the former Horus community hates Gamesamba's guts but there's no denying their influence had a positive impact of this game and I would not like to see that forgotten.

I wouldnt mind a namechange as Haven sounds just so safe

but changing it back to horus would take a bit of the server's history 'away'

isnt there another warlike.. godlike.. name that can be slapped to the server
with a reason like.. the new, gamesamba free, balance update server (?)

but its not like im really annoyed by the name either, so in a non-offensive way i dont really care

Never liked gamesamba, the merge between Horus and raven ruined everything

Servers merged, should make a whole new name if people don't like "Haven" otherwise it would be unfair to those who preferred Raven over Horus.

It's a weird thing but i'd not like Horus to be the name.
