| The Clans -Sared - May 27 12:43am | |

Death Reapers for Palpatine. Naghori Fleet. Elite Jedi Krew. The Vanu Alliance. These are names of my past. I have been known as DRP_sarod95, NF_Sarid, [EJK]-sared, and VA_Sared These are all names of my past. But what do they mean? What do they represent? For ten years now I have watched the gaming community grow and develop. For ten years have I watched a humble, 3D, 1st-person shooter (Dark Forces) turn into something that its creators could not have hoped to achieve. But one thing that has always been a part of games, has been competition; and of competition, teams. The Clans. clan- A clique; a sect, society, or body of persons; esp., a body of persons united by some common interest or pursuit. -Websters Dictionary What does a clan mean to you? Is it a group of people you play games with? Then is not the Academy a clan? Is a clan a group whom you honor and are willing to defend? Again, is the Academy not a clan? What then is the seperating factor? We are a school. We teach, we train, we refine skill. Clans are teams that participate in matches and competitions. Such is the nature of each. There are a good deal of similiar qualities that can be found in each, and I know that there are clans that exist not to compete but are simply groups of friends. I can say that with very few exceptions, the Academy has lasted longer than any clan I have been a part of in the past. For that, I bow to you alone. |

Meh, clans don't have to be small groups of people who play wars. www.fesgaming.com -- a clan, yet bigger than the Academy.  _______________ Owner of the Gradius Telegraphman Award This comment was edited by D'Loko on Jun 23 2004 05:32pm. |

A long while ago some time during August of '03, I had finally bought the game that I've heard many great things about called Jedi Knight:Jedi Outcast for 20 bucks I started off playing around in pubs, learning things like binding, specials, and some red stance stuff. Within some time, I joined a clan called JCOTA (not knowing what a clan was exactly) and they disbanded 2 days later. Eventually, I learned some stuff in LoC, but they didn't take anyone younger than 20. So, for the next 2 weeks I had found someone that would teach me, his name was Lion. At that time, I joined the clan called Imperial Ground Forces, and that's where my road of clans stopped. After I quit IGF, I came here, this awesome place. And I've been loving every single day since VIVA LA ACADAMIA!!!!! |

I would have to say {RH} has always been one of those clans that is just a group of friends. Even though some of my buds have seemed to dissapear into the mysterious ethereal void. _______________ Master of the almighty BOGONE! (tm) No one can stop me now, unless you stand right in front of me. |
