Welcome to the 1st E.P.O.C.H. Annual Festivities!

((Posted in the Open Forums so our Initiates and Allies can read this))

The E.P.O.C.H. Agency, formally "Blasters For Hire", officially turn 1 year old today!

Started way back on the 11th February 2009 by a slightly meglamaniac yet thoroughly fun-to-be-around Falleen who still won't tell us his name! , the Guild has gone through some major changes since its initial forming.

Originally intended to be a neutral guild, E.P.O.C.H. officially joined The Sith Faction when BioWare made it clear that these two Factions would be the only ones available in Star Wars: The Old Republic. At our core though, we are still a neutral guild in both alliegance and Role-playing functionality.

The year has seen promotions, demotions, the sorry departing of dear friends and the arrival of fresh minds into the collective. There's been arguments, laughter and more than a little storytelling by some of the Galaxies' finest. We've made new friends and some have even become the allies we have today.

The Admin team are proud to be a part of this awesome Guild and today, we'd like to give a little something back:

• Each Initiate that logs in today will receive a special gift which will help them on their way to EPOCHness!
  
  
• Each Agent who logs in today will get to choose between 3 special gifts which will aid them in-game.
  
  
• Each Ally who logs in today will also receive a special gift to thank them for their support over the last year.

Also there will be a short 7-14 day Play-by-Post RP later today to celebrate our year together with a short section for Agents only and then a big knees up at the Hyperion to which everyone is welcome - invites have been sent.

To add some fun and competition into the mix you can also try your hand at a little something called Where's Falleen? a parody on the "Where's Wally" observation game. First to find all 8 "mini-falleen's" correctly gets a unique prize!

And lastly there is an extra surprise in store for all our Allies, specifically the Ambassadors who have kept us up-to-date with their Guild's goings on and news. In a thanks to this we'd like to present to you Azure Towers Embassy Building.

So, we hope you all have fun today, and we just want to say:

HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY AGENTS!

Happy birthday Agents!

I hope we'll have many fine RP moments in the future!

Oh, by the way, I've already logged on to the Hyperion RP as I'm not sure if I can make it tonight, but move my post around as you seem fit.

Happy Birthday E.P.O.C.H!

I hope that we will have much good roleplay and many good times together in the future!

Your changing rank before my eyes, Congrats E.P.O.C.H and congrats to all the people who joined from the start Harl LW and SS who are still around and ofc Harewood/Redwatch who did so much for the Guild when he was here (we'll send some booze up to your office in the Towers!)

Its sad to see people who have left over the year Blackheart for one who we all hope is alright and Artekus who will hopfully rejoin us at some point!

But its great to see we still have new and commited people joining despite Biowares and EAs best efforts to stop us!

Happy Birthday E.P.O.C.H!

A big Whoop-di-doo!! and Happy Birthday!!

Gosh, a whole year? Though I personally signed up on March 4 '09 and am no longer a Member, I still feel proud that the guild has survived it's first year. Survived and flourished I should say .

Well done to everyone who works so hard to keep the Falleen's dreams alive, and thanks to Lunarwolf and anyone else who helped prepare for today's celebrations!

Gratz guys!

Happy Birthday EPOCH!

Congratulations on the first year! One of the toughest for guilds, I'd say. Cheers for sticking through the good and bad that comes with the rocky start

I haven't known ya'll as long as others, but I must say it's been a damn pleasure. EPOCH is full of amazing people and quality roleplayers, so here's to another year and the hopes of seeing you in game (hostile negotiations aside!)

Wowzers, a whole year in the agency, and a damn happy one too! Many, many thanks to all the agents both past and present that have helped keep the name E.P.O.C.H alive and a name to be feared throughout the galaxy! Extra thanks to those that have helped with todays birthday activities, it's a shame I won't be on long enough to enjoy it all.

We've certainly come a long way since our inception and I'm glad to see that after a year we're still going strong considering the game won't be appearing on the shelves for a long while. Here's to another year *raises glass*!

Not much else to be said really but....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AGENTS!!!!

Happy birthday guys!

Hello agents of the EPOCH! I came all the way from Korriban to wish you a happy birthday! May you enjoy many more birthdays and I hope we'll also be there to celebrate with you.


...Now, I believe you promised us a present?

Hey Mor'kal and thanks for popping by! Just finishing up your present now, keep an eye on your PM's!

Happy Birthday EPOCH

Congratulations guys and Happy Birthday from all of us at the Hands of Darkness!

Hiyee! Happy birthday! *brings cupcakes*

Happy Birthday to the E.P.O.C.H!

Wow, that means that I've been kicking around this place for quite some time! But, not more so that some of the others. This guild has made quite the transformation, from Blasters for Hire, a small forum at the time with not much going for it - to one of the most high quality roleplay guilds on the block. Definately an achievement, and I only have everyone here to thank for it.

Best wishes on this special day,
Harlequin2

From me and the rest of the Sith'ari Path we wish you a happy birthday, and hope for many more. Also may our two guilds have many great RPs in the future.
