I'm going to post this in the Lore forum as I guess it kind of makes sense here...

Some friends and I were chatting and the name of the Lodestone came up, so I was wondering if anyone knew why the site has been named the way it has?

All I know is that Lodestones are magnetic stones which were used in travelling a few centuries back (kind of like a compass) and were also called "Leading stones". The only thing I can think of is that maybe it was just named so because people who seek assistance in the game can post here for guidance?

If anyone can help clarify the meaning then it'd be wonderful ^^ Thank you!
