I hear that 'The Poonsquad' is very active.
But passing 2 years isn't a record-as there are many clans who have already way past that line-you can check this easily if you install Muli's userscript.
My suggestion is to stop criticizing clan(s)-it creates a bad image and if any person is willing to join that clan being criticized, he/she might be biased.

You forgot the example of your own clans.

LEA/ILLUMINATI/Warlighters. Please add.

Oh, wait. Someone already summarised one of them for you:

Well, what happened to Forbidden Knowledge? In theory, an incorrect e-mail can be changed by Fizzer. Did the email change? It is doubtful. It seems Forbidden Knowledge needed time for real life and used an excuse of a changed email as partial cover. As well, other accounts in League of Erroneous Aspirations (Kasparov) and Warlighters (¶ Anna) go inactive proving this wasn’t about a faulty e-mail but a need to leave the game. He lied to ILLUMINATI▲ for no particular reason and when management could have planned a restructure for Forbidden Knowledge’s time away. A crisis was manufactured on the premise of a lie.

We can go over my own mistakes, that is true.

What did happen on my end was a crisis in real life, which was also in addition to losing access to FK for an unknown reason. That was true, but it wasn't the whole truth. I fully admit I shouldn't have left as abruptly as I did, and I apologize to the clans damaged by that event.

Edit: And, continued, when I did return, it was not as a sane person, and instead of trying to get back into the flow of what I was originally doing, I enrolled the DARKLORDS in clan league. To this day I'll never understand why. Lol.

To summarize, then, life moves on. I'm here and willing to make amends.

I was eventually able to get back into FK by remembering that it was originally tied to a Facebook account as well as email, which is the only reason this account didn't become extinct.

To continue to answer that in full, Illuminati did not die, thankfully. And the LEA died not because of my hands, but because we (myself & Dr. Stupid) passed it on to management whose results have been mixed at best. Edit #2: By the time I went inactive on all accounts, I had not had any claims to LEA management for several months, which others can confirm.

As for Warlighters, it could definitely use a leader to revive it, but I have demonstrated that I'm not that person. After leaving it, I don't deserve the clan tag.

In german we have a proverb:

"Wer im Glashaus sitzt sollte nicht mit Steinen werfen."

So I guess what I am trying to say is that if you point out mistakes dont leave out your own, better start with your own.

Enjoy google translate.

Literal translation : Who in glasshouse sits should not with stones throw.

The german education is paying off!!!!!!!

Is that even a german proverb though?

it is a german saying

Just because its been translated into German, doesn't actually mean it originated as a German saying. Or do you know that it actually is a german saying?

Who cares if it was always a german saying? It might have been latin first. But the saying is widely known in german speaking countries.

It is also a very common English language expression.

And the LEA died not because of my hands, but because we (myself & Dr. Stupid) passed it on to management whose results have been mixed at best.

Why did you two leave it anyway? Acme Co. looks like pretty much all of active LEA. :P

@Mod - is there any Swiss saying?:P

@QB - "undercover mission to infiltrate Darklords". One does not simply walk into Darklords. You need to assembly the fellowship of the Pooncrew to achieve that ;)

Why did you two leave it anyway? Acme Co. looks like pretty much all of active LEA. :P

Dr. Stupid might be able to explain that decision better than I can. :)

Swiss is not really a language... :P

Swiss saying: better gold on the bank, than nothing in the stomach!

Well, point of order, first of all. Me and Kasp/Nex did not leave LEA together, nor did we start Acme together. Kasp/Nex left first I believe partly through real life business and wanting to concentrate on other warlight projects, but I should really let him speak for himself on that.

I left primarily because the LEA was built 100% on the 5v5 game format. I just found myself losing interest in that format, but here I was with a clan full of players that I had recruited under the promise of playing 5v5 format. So I passed it off to someone who was both still interested in the format and capable to run the thing (Captain Trips). LEA did go through a brief period of inactivity that started under my leadership and continued into Captain Trip's leadership as well. Under Trips, The LEA has became smaller, but also more organized and he has brought it to nearly 100% activity.

As far as the founding of Acme co. goes, that started as a project between me and JT (he rarely gets on the forums). Later on, CJ became very prominent in leadership as well. As a clan, we dropped the 5v5 format completely and concentrated fully on self-improvement/clan league/ladder performance. (We still have a long way to go). Several Acme players have an alt in LEA as there are still many friendships between the two clans.

Now don't ask me any other questions as I tend to get overly sentimental about this stuff and give answers way too long including information nobody even cares about. lol.

Alright, thanks for clarifying that a bit!
