    How are these names hard to pronounce? I like it, it fits with the year of the dragon, just shorten it to kaal, yol, bah, mul.

    But they're not hard to pronounce still,
    yol-nah-kreen, kal-e-gron-teed, bah-lock-daan,
    mul-ahm-near

    It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure something out phonetically

    Julius Tullius Raenor, Immortal Redeemer | Imperial TankDK

    Blind-From-Shadows, Boethiah's Scythe | Argonain Tankblade
    Darius Countenain, Kyne's Will | Redguard Tankden

    Do not like names too.

    I even can not read it - i try to say it. Sounds like Fpsghfgcgkfvifbgfjg.

    But do not really care. Just do not like them that is all :)

    Probably because rocket scientists aren't linguists, and neither are you. Is "Kaal" really pronounced as simple as "Kal"?

    Can't we just name them:

    Server 1
    Server 2

    Etc.

    "I am a nightblade. Blending the disciplines of the stealthy agent and subtle wizard, I move unseen and undetected, foil locks and traps, and teleport to safety when threatened, or strike like a viper from ambush. The College of Illusion hides me and fuddles or pacifies my opponents. The College of Mysticism detects my object, reflects and dispels enemy spells, and makes good my escape. The key to a nightblade's success is avoidance, by spell or by stealth; with these skills, all things are possible."

    Name the campaigns after The Companions.

    30 Day CP = Lyris Titanborn
    30 Day No CP = Sai Sahan
    7 Day CP = Abnur Tharn
    Under Level 50 = The Prophet

    "Which campaign are you?"

    "I'm in Lyris Titanborn."

    Not so sure it works.

    I seriously feel sorry for anyone that can't pronounce those names. How you do get through your day to day life?

    My thoughts exactly. We are now calling for a nerf to names of pvp servers.... :D ,I would say that this is a new low for the forums but it's not.

    Pretty sure I won't be the first to say it, but my lunch is almost over and I won't be able to read the whole thread:

    Not Klingon. Dragon.

    Bah lok daan = Wrath Sky Doom

    Kaal gron tiid = Champion [or defender] Bind [or link] Time

    Yol nah kriin = Fire Fury Slaughter

    Mul aam nir = Strength Servant Hunt

    I suggest we create one more campaign as a compromise between those who wants names easy to pronounce while inebriated, and those who want dragon names:

    Every pvp Guild : Today we meet on §_<A{)@ #?%!%$@ #!

    Guildmembers: waaaaaiiiit whaaaaat ?


    I realy dont get it why zos changes the campain names, NO PVP PLAYER CARES ABOUT IT, zos should focus on actual problems in cyro, like that the outer keeps are mostly not attacked or defended and everything just focus around the emp keeps, or i dont know i heard there was something like lags in cyro? but i guess its just a myth.

    Am i supposed to be a Greybeard to pronounce these names lol.
    if they wanted Dragons at leased choose the ones we normal folk can pronounce like Alduin etc...

    I would rather they just be numbers like Campaign 1

    "Like Alduin" and which other exactly?

    Quiz - I'll pay 100k gold for someone who can spell all these names correctly, in this order and under 5 seconds:
    Bahlokdaan, Kaalgrontiid, Yolnahkriin, and Mulaamnir

    As someone who speaks dutch, these names arent actually that hard to pronounce.
