hah okay i cant help but reply. sryyyyy i said i wouldn't ^_^
I can understand that some people could be upset that a former member revived the clan but look at it like from my perspective:
(U) has always been one of the top map making clans in my opinion. I found that former members like myself were still proud to wear the tag. So i thought to my self why the hell wouldn't i want to bring back the good old days. Maybe i didn't get permission from a former leader, but where the hell are they anyway? I don't consider myself "leading" Clan (U), i'm not power hungry. What i've done is i've taken the name of a clan that is no longer in existent and tried my best replicate it. I follow the same guidelines as the original (U) to the best of my ability, ofcourse it can't be exactly the same.
And if you go to the channel Clan uUu you will see in both T-Virus@Azeroth and OpS(U)'s profiles the following:
Clan uUu is not officially affiliated with the original. All former (U) members interested in joining the re-created (U) must show they are still actively making maps.
IF i need to write it more clearly i will, i assumed the majority of the people who read it are educated enough to know in lameness terms it means: THIS IS NOT THE ORIGINAL (U).
LITTLE DETAILS OF MY CREATION OF CLAN UNKNOWN:
- if you are trying out for (U) you must meet the same standards that were always expected from Clan (U), to possess map making skills above the average mapper.
- members of the clan arn't ranked. To be a member (U) is to be apart of a team, a community of above the average mapmakers who proudly wear the tag.
Guys please don't look at me as if i'm the "villain" for wanting to bring back such a great clan. I guess i brought part of it upon myself telling ETEFT it's cool if he wanted to announce it on SEN. But one thing i've noticed is the negative feedback comes from people that were never affiliated an any way with (U). The fact is i think a lot of this has to do with my past or their past with the clan. As for people like silentecho i have an old quote to tell you:
Any fool can criticize and most fools do.
Someone mentioned on the previous page that silentecho probably has his own personal grudge against you, i believe so. Maybe he just doesn't like competition... I also think it's real interesting that silentecho has talked to three former leaders of (U) and none of them have even tried to contact me. Apparently all the former (U) leaders are mad that i would want to bring back one of the best clans of all time?
I will always respect the former leaders, but what they threw away i will guide back to life.
So i made a new clan with the same name following similar guidelines to the original. If you think thats the first time someone has remade a clan your greatly mistaken.
Just for the record: i joined before both kenoli and legacy, thnx. I was recruited by SiLeNT(U) in 2003. Ask Mp(U) he'll agree. After all he helped me get in! =)
*EDIT: Vi3t-X does your "clan leader" know that you suck up to me in game and beg to see me and eteft's map all day then you come on here and criticize me?
