Early 2009 (Beginning): When the clan system came out, I was on my original account (now my alt), awesomater. I didn't know what to expect - certainly not a large and growing system of war clans. I quickly joined a few fan groups already made, so that I could see what it was like to be in a group. At that point, it was all right.
Mid-late 2009 (First Clan): On both awesomater and sandstormassassin, I continued to join groups. That's when I met my first war group, RoXzon. I don't remember how exactly, be it by advertisement I clicked on, a friend telling me of it, or what, I quickly joined it to see what it was all about. I first saw that there was a certain uniform to wear, depending on your rank. At the time, I thought that was revolutionary. A great thing for organization and character appearance. I also learned that in the group, if you bought a uniform, you were promoted to that rank. So I bought the uniform for "Chief/Commander," a mid-rank, and soon, that was all I associated myself with on ROBLOX. Then my first raid. Me and a few RoXzon member were raiding Stealthmatt's RAT, which I basically learned to hate from the beginning. Though the base that we raided, their HQ, only allowed Gear weapons to be used. I then bought gear and learned to fight from that, easily jumping around with the Gravity Coil and slashing at RAT members. It was great.
Early-mid 2010 (Expanding in Clans): By this time, I had started to join the C&G with my good friend Gavindude97, who I met at a raid against RAT. We became fast friends and still are today. Anyway, I soon began foruming all over, trying out OT and RP, all that. Then I found C&G, and for some reason, liked it. There were those that were nice enough to me to convince me to stay. After quite a lot of time and talking, I became somewhat known and liked in the C&G. It felt great. Around the same time, I purchased Builder's Club, and soon made my own group, the S.A.L., standing for the Sandstorm Assassin Lineage. It started off slow, but after building a base or two and getting friends to join, ir was off to a good start. Also around this time, my group and I would raid RAT bases (then owned by D4), failing initially but learning the proper tactics to trick RAT members into getting inside ad securing Carbines and Shotguns. It was exciting, and I simply loved it.
Mid-late 2010 (Joining a Superclan): Through C&Ging, I had learned to accept D4's RAT. I considered joining it before, but never did until September or November of 2010. Upon seeing the bases from a Conscript's perspective, I felt welcomed and accepted. It felt great to be a part of a larger something. This is also when my C&Ging picked up momentum. For whatever reason, the rest of 2010 is cloudy to me. C&G and working on my RAT rank became my full goal, as I quickly worked my way up to the Guard rank.
Early 2011 (New Powers): This was my clan-joining era. At this point, people in the C&G liked and knew me, and I loved being a part of it. Because of reading threads, I discovered Minor Threat, lead by PLOOBER33. It looked good, and I decided to check it out. I quickly learned to love it, participating in battles and attacks. I even eventually became the highest achievable rank though I forget what it was...), as well as a Commander of my own squad and unit, mainly for flanking and infiltration (for whatever reason). Also around this time, I saw that the Urban Assault Force was now owned by Benblue9. I decided to give it a chance, as well. Little did I expect what would happen next. "Oh, sand's in both UAF and MT? Let's go to war!" So basically, I just sat that war out, until the final battle. I wanted to look good to both clans, but how could I if they were on opposite sides? Fortunately, after Minor Threat won the final battle (which I was in, and there's footage of), the war ended, and I could work on UAF, and Minor Threat was a small but powerful force.
Early-Mid 2011 (UAF and RAT): Closer to mid 2011, PLOOBER33 left, and left MT to Eddren, who was a good friend of mine, and my mentor. However, MT wasn't the same. It became more inactive, and I left, knowing that I needed to use my time wisely. UAF became my giant project to tackle. I defended Kopervich and Mettinrich like a madman. Before long, I was an Executive, and then a Legislature. And what does that give me? A flood of messages. "Promote me!" "am i gud membr" Messages like that. It got insane for awhile. But it was fun as heck. I promoted a lot of good people, met a lot of cool people, and got a ton of KO's. Now, RAT. It was great. I met even more people that I still know now, and rose in rank and influence. I was accepted into Sparrow Corp after I accidentally sent a request to join it. I became an Agent that patrolled Celeste constantly. After awhile, I was promised to be a Marshal of this Admiral I was well acquainted with, 57rusted. However, that didn't work out, so Eddren, who was an Admiral, took me in to be his Marshal. I was demoted for no reason, then re-promoted. Not long afterwards, I became an Admiral, but only for about two weeks.
Late Summer 2011 (Temporary Goodbyes): While I was excited with my positions in RAT and UAF, I knew that, after Ben left, UAF wasn't going to be the same. I left it with a heavy heart. RAT was again my main focus. But I had become bored with the game (of course, after I had gained what I had worked for over a year for), and decided to leave. I said my goodbyes and checked up on the C&G once a month. My BC was about to expire anyway.
May 2012 (Returning): I realized that ROBLOX is like the Hotel California: "You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave." I returned to see a few old faces, and many new ones. I knew that not much would be the same, but decided to return to RAT and the C&G anyway. I found myself at Supervisor, and not in Sparrow Corp. Then again, I thought, why would I expect anything else? I was gone for months. I quickly caught up with my old C&G friends and once again greeted old friends.
Today, July 25th, 2012: Today, I am regaining my position in RAT, and my fame on the C&G. I am once again returning to see my old clan, the S.A.L, run by someone who's never on. I wish I could reclaim it. My clan life has been great, and I wish to expand it still.
Blood, dust, and agony, -=S.S.A. |
