Hello From Zo

Hello 2016 Pure Community.  Some of you may know me, others may not.  I founded Intense Redemption in 2006 and led IR through some significant peaks and valleys over the years until our final closure in 2013 - from a mass leave to form a break-off clan in our very early stages to defeating P2P-only clan Carnage in a full-out and claiming #1 P2P MPC, from a failed merge in our very early stages to defeating in-over-their-head Zenith in a 100v100 and maintaining our title as #1 MPC.  Eventually, father time came knocking on our loyal-to-the-death core and we no longer had the time to invest in being a stable clan, let alone the top one in the MPC.

 

That's us in a nutshell, but I wanted to give my thoughts on what I've seen from a brief browse on what's going on here today.  I've never been one to mince words and here's my verdict: this community is an absolute brown sticky stuffhole.

 

Hopefully brutal honesty doesn't trigger you in the same manner a manspreader does for a third-wave feminist.  I truly feel sorry for the newer folks to the scene who didn't get to experience a pure clanning landscape that didn't have the following:

 

  • Addy daddies running rampant - newer folks, can you believe there was a time when nearly every single pure was 1 defense?  LOL, crazy right?  Instead there are cucks running around bragging about their 39 defense - a tacit admission that they would be brown sticky stuff without it.  It's no surprise that during 1 def cap preps the 30+ defense kids are often the worst tanks and thereby the easiest kills.  "Wtf how are these arrows and scims doing so much damage to me???  Sorry guys, I'll do better next round."
  • Mains shamelessly being brought on trips and in the very clan chat of the "pures" - I've seen multiple videos with kids in rune running around fighting, wearing their clan's team cape, etc. I think EOP is the worst offender of this, although I'm sure almost every noteworthy clan (besides maybe FOE) has done it.  As if that wasn't bad enough, they're shown as a blue dot on the mini map, obviously meaning the clan's leadership has no qualms about it and doesn't care who sees.  Here's a novel idea: why don't you all just get 40+ defense?  If you really want an inherent advantage that badly, you can't go wrong with this!
  • P2P Teleporting - Newer folks, can you believe there was a time when every respectable clan strictly prohibited teleporting?  Not anymore.  About to die?  Just play your get-out-of-jail-free card and save those rune crossbows!  Leadership made a bad call and you're fucked?  Don't worry, we'll just mass teleport and try again!

 

Now that that's been stated, I have a couple special shoutouts to a couple of the newer clans on the block.

 

Redemption - Needless to say, this clan's founders are new, lazy, and didn't do any homework when choosing a name or they are IR fanboys who were clearly never a part of IR.  Yes, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but it's completely unwanted flattery.  To the surprise of no one, their team cape is the blue Team-26.  For the newer folks, I'll let you take a wild guess what our team cape was since the inception of team capes in the late 2000's.  If any clan wants to throw some dirt on these guys, just remind them that they're all fakes and that they'll never sniff even a shred of mediocrity.

 

Supremacy - Look at this sick banner they have:

Supremacy member: "Wow!!!  That's incredible!!!  Best banner in the pure comm-"

Supremacy member: "Oh.  Hey [whoever the leader is], it looks like we have a PR problem on our hands." 

 

Leader: "Just say his clan is brown sticky stuff."  

 

Member:  "He's not in a clan, though."  

 

Leader: "Just say he would fit in with Doom and that he should join right in time for Phase 2."  

 

Member: "He's retired though."  

 

Leader: "Dude, just tell him he's a re tard, I'm busy."

 

=========================================================================================

 

Anyway, I'm excited to see the reaction to this.  I'd love to hear some coherent responses to everything I've said in here.  If you think a pure clanning community is better with teleports, wild adamant animals, and main reinforcements, I got some bad news for you.

 

Ideally the leadership of every clan of significance (meaning Supremacy and fake IR should be shoved away) would come together and work something out about this, for the betterment of everyone.  But we all know that's not going to happen.  Keep on trucking away, using whatever scummy method you can concoct to get your clan an inherent advantage.

 

That is all.  Let the responses to these points separate the thought-provoked and the braindead - "Hurr durr, u suck."

 

P.S. I get that clanning is intense and you probably hate each other - I've been there.  But I want to point out a life resource that EVERY SINGLE GUY HERE can relate to.  One that changes the lives of boys/men of all ages.  Basically, the world is not what you think it is.  If you think life is a magical fantasy land, it's time for you to unplug.  It's time to swallow the /r/theredpill.

I really wish this thread would lead to some educated discussions, but we both know it won't. I'd love to put effort into a few paragraphs but it'll go to waste.

 

I will admit though, the old Z vs IR rivalries were intense.

 

Agreed on both accounts.  Thanks for the reply.

Signature copying is nothing new; and the pure whole 39 defence thing is a joke, getting the name Redemption could of also been from the Prayer tab; not your washed up clan. Many clans have copied each other over and over again in time; but brown sticky stuff happens. But saying two clans should be shoved away; when they're actually a big role in the HPC scene is cauliflower as fuck. It's like saying Doom should be shoved away since it's a Zenith V27. Having a rivalry is what makes it fun.

Oh the hamster is furiously spinning.  I guess Mayhem Makers, The Hatred, Knockout Pures, Bloody Brains, Brutality Pures, and Destined Pures are all washed up too ("wait, who are those???  he made those names up hahahahahhaha").  All of those clans were better than yours will ever be.
