Today, nobody would suspect that the United Clan of ROBLOX was ever the center piece of the clan world. One could say that it is a very poor clan, that has just begun climbing out of a hole that's been dug for nearly 3 years. However, UCR was in fact the first super clan to exist.
How do we make sense of this time, a time of new beginnings. Was UCR big for it's day? How did such a powerful clan with a nostalgic attitude come to what it is today? These questions are more will be answered in this thread.
Phase One:] Inception
UCR initially started in January of 2009. Having roughly 400 members, UCR was a formidable union of people. However, the group system did not officially exist. Instead, Kinglime used alts as the guild's ranks. You cans still find evidence of this today, in UCRSelect (http://www.roblox.com/User.aspx?ID=3760729). Later on in mid 2009, ROBLOX released Groups!
For 100 ROBUX, you could create your own guild. This was pretty neat, a simple and straight forward way to represent where your allegiance lies, or even just show off your beliefs. At the time, a clan known as X-101st existed. It is rumored UCR was created to destroy the X-101st. And as later discovered by UCR moderators, Kinglime himself encouraged the idea of "dominating" ROBLOX using UCR. UCR's true purpose may be a mystery, however it is known that Kinglime created the clan. The 18th group on ROBLOX, UCR. It is alleged to have had 9 initial founders, including Toonlink, Vanyathegreat, and Armitroner. These ROBLOXians had already established a claim to fame. Kinglime in his place, with Toon & Armitroner acclaimed in ROBLOX graphics.
This concludes the inception of UCR.
Phase Two]: Growth
The United Clan of ROBLOX grew rapidly. The famed leader of the clan attracted players of any and every background. UCR quickly gained several thousand members and was locked in combat with the X-101st. Despite struggles in leadership, UCR's growth remained relatively stable throughout the many leadership changes in it's time.
Being one of the only clans of such magnitude and class, it was only natural that UCR would continue to grow until the famous Soccerp admin attack.
Phase Two; Tangent 1]: Admin Attack!
Dboot98 was being banned constantly. During one of his infamous 7/14 day bans, UCR was attacked by soccer. Having exile abilities, he exiled thousands before stopping at 1,000 members. UCR's morale was surely in pieces, and the clan had since followed a legacy of darkness, hate, and disunity.
Phase Two; Tangent 2]: The Aftermath
As a result of the first tangent in our tale, UCR was tossed around like a hot potato. Nothing noteworthy occurred since UCR's members were all but diminished. Until, Xephyrus came to own UCR. Under much pressure by previous UCR leaders, Xephyrus held a vote for leadership of UCR. It was between JcDufus, and the famous benblue9. Of course, ben had owned UCR once before, as did his cousin. The members had a familiarity with ben and his kin. He won the election, now dawning the new era of UCR.
Phase Three]: Recovery
Benblue9 was a charismatic leader, and a wit. His reforms slowly but surely gave UCR the recovery it needed. With plenty of raiders, UCR's activity soared. Eventually, UCR would reach 9,000 members and rising. It was around this point in time, that other clans did start to challenge UCRs authority. RAT was one of these clans. In september of 2009, UCR declared war on the ROBLOX Assault Team, in an effort to prevent UCR's dominance from ever being taken from it again.
After weeks of conflict, despite the many exploiting on RAT's side, UCR won the war with the help of several allies, and what was famously known as "ROBLOX D-Day". However, the victory did not actually prove UCR victorious. RAT continued to grow and well beyond what UCR had ever dreamed. UCR had accepted this as an inevitable reality, and continued forward.
UCR now has 10k to 12k members. FEAR arrived. Unchanged from his mistake with RAT, benblue9 again declares war in an effort to suppress the new clan. Sadly, again, UCR's victory was fruitless. Accepting this, and accepting his mistakes, benblue9 instead sought diplomatic solutions with FEAR & RAT. Along with UCR, these three clans were known as "The Big 3".
As history would tell us, this would only be true for so long.
Phase Four]: The Fall
UCR reached 13,000 members, and had serious acclaim along with the other Big 3 clans. UCR was raided frequently, it was almost cliche to want to raid one of the most famous clans on ROBLOX. With booming activity, UCR was still crowned the center piece of the clan world. UCR later challenged John's Cobras, in an effort to suppress a very hateful and dangerous threat to cohesion among clans. UCR was the first superclan to utilize raid & recruitment tactics. Several JC members left after being persuaded by UCR officers. I myself converted 38 members from JC to UCR. Sadly, the war was never finished under benblue9...
Phase Four; Tangent 1]: The King with no Heir
Benblue9 would leave UCR by the middle of the 2010 year. Having the longest leadership of UCR, with other stresses in life and in ROBLOX, Ben felt it was time to pass the torch. Having no predetermined measure for an heir, Ben left it to a vote. However, the results of this vote were never officially tallied or even used. Ben left UCR in the hands of trick555, regardless of whether he truly won or not.
Phase Four; Continued]: The Fall
UCR was devastated. Dozens of people left, with hundreds more clamoring the walls and rec center. Flame wars dominated UCR. Left with no other option, trick brought silence to the wall. No member could post. All that was left was an eerie and bitter silence, one that certainly scarred UCR for a long time.
Eventually, order would be reinstated, UCRians never did accept trick, however they did not resist as openly. In the months following, UCR would be left behind from the rest of the clan world. Having lost it's claim to fame, and it's charismatic leader, UCR was like a chicken with it's head cut off.
Clans were developing. ColourTheory (then-Donkeyo4) was RAT's leader, and created many innovations along with his HRs that installed RAT as the center piece of clans. UCR dwindled into a nothing.
Dozens of other clans existed. Most more fun than UCR, or having an experience that was once in UCR. Members fled to these clans, or at times remaining in UCR and still joining the new clans. This lead UCR down a horrid path. Activity was being choked. No one raided UCR. Members had all but lost faith, and took to rebelling against the leadership.
By early 2011, UCR was finally brought to trial for it's heinous attempts to overthrow trick555. In a famous HR meeting, it was decided that a reform would be needed to amend all that has been wronged.
Sadly, trick did not have the will or stability to watch as his HRs mindlessly argued at the meetings. Having only felt disappointment at the end of each session, trick left UCR on a fitting date. May 5th of 2011, at 5:55 PM EST trick555 left UCR in the hands of TDfall.
So concludes the fall of UCR.
I will continue this thread at a later date.. All the events here are factual, and I will find members who can prove it through testimony. |

| And the only part I disagree with is the JC part. Everything else is in order. |

In all seriousness though.. move forward.

Silent,
You are an ignorant fool. I don't care how well off your clan is, being an ass to me only proves how far gone you are. |

This was about UCR being the first superclan.
Once TDfall became owner, I define it as the line between the age in which UCR could've been called a super clan. |

I'm not 100% sure about everything that occurred.
Simply said, it doesn't matter who won. It never affected the course of history. |
