Is there any way to tell what company names are active.
It looks like everyone that ever logged into the forums created a company which makes it rather difficult to tell if the companies are really active (have players) and what names are taken.
Is there a list of those actually active anywhere?
Is there a list of names already taken so shouldn't be used (active and inactive)?
Can the "Company Tool" be used to check this or is it just for setting up new Companies?
My reason for asking is I want to join one of the US Regular companies since I am not from a northern state.
There are quite a few listed in the forums but they appear inactive. If one doesn't exists I will probably create one but I don't think the game needs more companies.
