Immortal History
This Starwars Battlefront 2 Clan began on
22-03-2007 by two people, Kagi and Raith. Both of whom, were members
of the clan (darkness). Kagi was a leader, and Raith was a high ranking
player. It was after a clan battle with CWC (Clan Wars Clan) that these
two members became dis-enchanted with the (darkness) set-up. Thet
decided to form a new clan called [Immortal]. This new clan would play
all kinds of battlefront 2 maps and modes. Not JUST the Jedi assault
like it's predacessor. Within a week,
this new clan was growing fast. Strong freelance players were joining,
as were other former members of (darkness), with these new mémbers
[Immortal] soon became a clan with limitless possibilities, and endless
potential. All recruits were to be trained in shooting by Kagi, and
assault by Raith. (if needed offcourse) However,
after two weeks of training, Kagi made a terrible mistake during a
training server, and lost the trust and respect of many members. Delta
1, Emrac, Eagle-eye, Hamster, cyberman and Lince left the clan without
a second thought. Trust and Respect has to be earned, a Vital and Harsh
lesson for [Immortal]. Out of desperation, Kagi resigned as leader, and
left [Immortal]. This was a crushing blow, the clan lost 10 members and
a leader within a single day. The clan was then solely led by
[Immortal]Raith After a coulple of days
former members of immortal who joined darkness, returned, due to all
the hate within that clan. Most of our old strong members rejoined
[Immortal] including Delta 1, Eagle-eye, Hamster and Cyberman, as did
our old leader [Immortal]Kagi. With the former leader back, it was
decided that the clan would make a fresh start. The two leaders decided
to take on new names. [Immortal]LordHylian (Formally Raith) and
[Immortal]LordTyranic (Formally Kagi). They both, were to lead this
renewed clan and, rebuild it better than before. The
1 Month Anniversary was fast approaching, and the clan had gone through
a few changes. [Immortal]Hamster became [Immortal]LordCiyrus, and was
appointed Leader, he was to train people in Space Assault. Now with
THREE Leaders (whom all specialise in various types of battles), This
Clan showed all the makings of being one of the strongest, friendliest
clans that BF2 may ever see.After 3 months
when [Immortal] started [Immortal]LordTyranic[Leader] gave up on the
clan, stating that the clan was a wreck and could never survive. So he
decided to return to his former clan (darkness). With Tyranic gone yet
again (Third time now), Immortal needed to find a new Leader, a trusted
Leader, a strong Leader. After much
discussion, LordHylian and LordCiyrus approached Chimaera (Formally
Eagle_Eye), and offered him the Leadership position. After much
discussions, Chimeara became [Immortal]LordChimaera[Leader] Now with
this appointment, a few changes had been made within the clan
structure. Gone are the ways of the old, Gone are the 3 Different
Squads. [Immortal] has gone back to basics, back to it's roots.
Allowing us to Grow unlike ever before.
It
is now the month of July, and [Immortal] is still going strong,
Alliances have been formed with many strong clans. One clan in
perticular CIC (Combat Intermational Clan) even has a web page devoted
to [Immortal]. This goes to prove, that we, as a clan, can survive. Not
only that, but it shows that [Immortal] is by far, one of the most
respected and friendliest clans within the Battlefront Domain..., and far from being a wreck.. We
have now incorporated medals into our clan. there is a total of 57
medals to be won for our members. Each one has there own special
meaning. The Month of September has now
passed, and again a few changes have happened. Due to University,
LordChimaera has stepped down from being a leader, But remains in the
clan. The New Assault leader is now [Immortal]LordBane. He has made
improvements to the site, by adding an Assault Team strategy page.
LordBane also has a server up 24 - 7. Our
former leader LordTyranic, has returned to us. After much soul
searching, he has realised that we are truely an Immortal clan. It
is now the beginning of November. Yet again Kagi has decided to leave,
making it the fourth time now. In doing so, he has caused a few
disruptions. However, seeing as we are [Immortal] the leaders were able
to address any issues concerning this clan. LordBane
has resignedhis position as Leader, and left the game for good (Due to
a Busy and Hectic Lifestyle), and shall chase his dreams within the
real world. We wish him the best of luck. His accomplishments include
creating the Hall of Fame and the Jedi Squads Tips
page. He will be sorely missed by all. As too will Cerberus, who has
left the clan also. Both of these great former members have forever
been made Immortal in the Hall of Fame. To our former comrades, we shall miss you both dearly, but we shall never forget you. In
light of these departures, we needed to find a new Leader. After much
deliberation, Lords Ciyrus and Hylian turned to Firefly. After a small
discussion, Firefly accepted the position of Leader, and now has become
an Immortal Lord. We shall continue to Battle fellow clans on friendly
terms, and we shall forever make our names [Immortal] We
have now gone Global, A new entity of Immortal is now up and running in
the good ol' US of A. They are to be lead by 3 new Immortal Lords
called LordJourney, LordBoomx, and LordPlague. They are newly formed,
and are still working on there own site. They are now heavily
recruiting new members, which should not be a problem for them, seeing
as they are all well known through-out the gaming domain as being
highly experienced, and skilled in all forms of Combat. This is History
in the making, as no other clan in Battlefront II has ever tried this. The
Year is now 2008, we have at the receiving end of many spam attacks,
this was the at pinicle of Immortal evolution. We searched hard to find
a solution to these horrific attacks. Eventually we found a way to
block people from viewing this site (Immortal was the first freewebs
clan to do this). All these spammers were redirected to http://www.you.justgotowned.com/ everytime
that they tried to visit the [Immortal] site. Because we are a fair
clan, and because we noticed that a few of our allies were also at the
receiving end of these distasteful attacks. we decided to share our
secret of how to stop these attacks. Thus our legacy became greater
than all these other clans that we consider not to be friendly. The
month is now April 2008, and Immortal has taken the next step. We have
bought a dedicated server. This server will be open to all in the
gaming community. However we have decided on a few rules to this
server, and these will be adhered to, failure to do so will result in a
banning of our hospitality. [Immortal] is growing bigger than most
clans out there, and we are very proud to say that we have come further
than all other clans. All but one. (so far) After
much personal selfless thought, LordFirefly decided to step down as
Leader, he believed that another member of Immortal was better suited,
thus Immortal Erik became Leader, and in doing so changed his name to
[Immortal]LordZephyron[Leader]. During his short time with in the Clan
as Leader, he has made some vast and radical changes to this site,
other sites, and has stepped up as a Diplomatic voice and figurehead
for this great clan. He is also without a doubt the best Space pilot
that Immortal has ever seen. LordZephyron has indeed become a Legend
within is his own right. We've now
entered the month of July, summer is here and alot has happened. The
divisions [Immortal]US and {AID} have been "frozen" but soon after that
the clan (COI) join [Immortal] as a division in its own. These new
members are skilled players and good people. [Immortal] is now stronger
then ever before and our dedicated server is very popular and well
known through out the swbf2 world. Infact, our move has led to many of
our allies also buying a server. ^^ Tragedy..
A short time after Firefly stepped down from his leader position, he
decided it was time for him to leave. A great loss no doubt but more
would come.. The end of June/beginning of July, Devil_Jin´and Thunder
left for our ally ArrowsAway, shortly after that Brosel had to leave
due to RL, and shortly after that LordCiyrus announced that he had to
leave the clan because of RL, but he promised to return as fast as
possible. We've now lost one leader, one ex-leader and 3 of our best
elite members in a short time. Even with these losses, LordHylian and
LordZephyron fears not for the future of the clan. We have gained some
new strong players (like Ace and Firestorm from E+G) during this time,
among them an ex-leader and founder of the clan, LordTyranic under his
old name Kagi, so [Immortal] is still going strong. A few days after
LordCiyrus left things looked better again and he could return, making
the trio complete. The joy over
Ciyrus return didn't last long. After a week or so he informed Zephyron
and Hylian that he had to resign as leader, but he would stay in the
clan. Bad news indeed but to make things a bit brighter an old leader,
Firefly, and 2 elite members, Devil_Jin and Thunder, returned. Chosing
a new leader was now needed. Hylian and Zephyron felt that there where
2 candidates, old leader/founder Kagi and old elite member Cerberus who
always stayed loyal and true to [Immortal]. It was decided that they
would be tested for one month meaning under that period there would
only be 2 lords. After one week though, Kagi showed how much he had
grown as a person (we thought, but he was only planing to betray
[Immortal] and leave it) when he declared that he stepped aside and
felt that Cerberus should be the next leader. It was decided so and as
we reached the end of July 2008, [Immortal] now had its 8th leader, the
brother of old lord Chimaera, LordCerberus. Summer
is now almost over and we've entered the month of September. It's been
a period of goo things, to start with Ciyrus who still was in the clan
started to be more active again. As a result he was re-appointed
leader, making it four leaders for the time being. We also gained a new
division, [NEO]. [NEO] was an old dead clan, now brought back by it's
former leaders. New members have joined [Immortal] and we've now taken
a break in accepting more, but since both (COI) and [NEO] are
recruiting, there are still ways to become a part of this great clan.
As icing on the cake, Broesel has returned to us. These are good times
indeed... Cerberus stepped down from
his leader position, because Ciyrus was back again. He saw it as better
to have the old trio again. A new position within the clan has been
made, the clan organizer. Broesel and Cerberus were appointed for this
position. They help out with all sort of stuff within the clan and they
help the members when needed. Hylian started playin WoW. Because of
this he became less active at BFII [Immortal]
has entered a new tournament, the CTF championship. Broesel is in
command of the team of [Immortal] for this tournament. This CTF
tournament, organised by TKF started a few weeks before christmas. 2
matches have been played: 1 victory and 1 draw (tough enemy pulled out
of tournament). Chrsitmas holidays have started and no other match has
been played in the tournament anymore. TKF has got some problems and
because of that the rest of the tournament will be delayed. There
is a new rule about wars in [Immortal]. Insulting in normal chat has
been forbidden, because it spoils the fun to both teams. [Immortal]
members will have to ignore the insults from the other clan. If ithe
insulting gets too badly the members can cancel the war, because the
insults of the other team take away all fun. The
inhouse-wars are ready to start. At last all rules are made,
the site is ready, the differnet ladders are ready and the teams are
being made. These inhouse-wars are meant for training for the members
and to make a bond between members. Zephyron has the lead over the
inhouse-wars and he is busy finishing the last preparations so the
inhouse-wars can start. January
2009, it had been a couple of long months with, as usual, ups and
downs. Clan was still going strong and we've had many wars/funwars and
as a result victories. However new times were coming. For long both
Hylian and Ciyrus hadn't been that active and while Ciyrus now where
more active again an idea had sparked Zephyrons mind. He wanted to
merge [Immortal] with the clan =[TKF]=. He presented the idea to both
Hylian & Ciyrus and the leaders of =[TKF]=. After some talk between
the clans the idea was accepted. In the beginning of february 2009 the
plans were presented to the members of both clans. Not all were happy
about it but after some time people came to terms with it and the new
clan .:]Infinite[:. was created.. This marked the end of an era that
started with just a handfull of people 2 years ago, an eternity for
most clans. [Immortal] was at its end one of the games oldest clans,
one of the biggest, one of the most known, one of the strongest. Yet
this doesn't mark the end of a great clan. The idea and the dream that
was [Immortal] still lives on within everyone who experienced it. Many
are those who wore the tag of [Immortal], and many are those who now
never will get a chance to do so. What is certain is that those who
did, they, and only they, knows that it was more then just a tag. As
long as they remember it, [Immortal] will live on. Per aspera ad astra, [Immortal]....
March
of 2009, the clan .:]Infinite[:. had a feud and split back into
[Immortal] and TKF. However it was not the same [Immortal]. Almost all
the old members have left. The great leader, Zephyron, decided not to
rejoin [Immortal]. In about a week, Ciyrus, another great leader,
announced he would be leaving. About a week after that, Hylian, the
founder of [Immortal] announced his departure from the clan. [Immortal]
was left leaderless with only about 16 members. Before Hylian left, he
pointed to Cyberman, he should be the next leader. The clans members
waited for Cyberman to speak up but after about a week Ciyrus left a
message saying that Cyberman could not and would not take the position.
As a result the remaining members themselfs chose a new leader.
Skywalker, one of the oldest remainning members, became that new
leader. He then in turn chose Roran (D4v3) as the second leader an
together they chose Hydra as the third. The new leaders now had their
path cut out for them. Never before had leaders been chosen by the
members and never before had there been three new leaders at the same
time. Rebuilding [Immortal] to what it once was won't be an esay task. Then
on July,30th 2009 Immortal had to find someone to replace D4v3; he left
the clan completly the day before. So Skywalker and Hydra decided to
make Eagle as replacement for D4v3 the new Leader. But not only Eagle
got a Leader today, Thunder was decided as Leader, too. Eagle,
Skywalker and Hydra talked about making him to the 4th Leader;
Skywalker and Hydra werent happy at the first time , but later they
liked the idea of getting a 4th Leader. So now Immortal has 4 Leaders
likein an old tradition and we all hope that for next years none of
these great Leaders will leave the clan or give up his Leader. And that
new decision of 4 Leader will hopefully makeImmortal more famous and
popular. However, the decision of 4
leaders did not go well with the members of the clan. They insisted
that 4 leaders were not necessary. This bickering lasted many days.
Finally, Hydra decided to step down, but changed his mind after some
support from others. Then, Eagle and Thunder left the clan. Luckily,
they rejoined shortly afterwards, but they still stepped down from
their leader positions. Then, finally, there was some good news.
Broesel rejoined us, and shortly after Ciyrus rejoined and took up his
position as leader. Then Hylian announced he would be returning.
Immortal now has 2 of its original leaders. This will hopefully cause
Immortal to grow even more, at even quicker speeds.
Broesel speaking now;). The last update of the history was like 1,5 years ago, so forgive me if i forget some details and facts. Ciyrus and Hyli did not become active and unfortunatly did not lead the clan. Instead Zarock was decided to be new leader of us. Already during this era the activity and dedication of the council, which we decided to give more importance and power, faded. Same happened to Lord Skywalker. Yes, on some points during this age, immortal was close to be disbanned. But there was always some hope, will and faith to believe in and to continue. Somewhen {Mg-12} joined [immortal] as division, however we made mistakes; the integration almost completely failed. And Slaughter is today the only remaining member of this merging. Nowadays the last sign of {Mg-12} is the memorial page we established on our website to remember them. During one of the disban debates, Crazzyhorse satisfied the community with his shout about the old ideas and ideals and so was made third leader (inofficial he was the second leader because of sky being inactive). The two leaders, supported by the membership, were able to scope with every challange we had to face and also introduced some changes. The most significant one was probably our esl-team (we pwned:D). And then there was the time, when I again became inactive. I still had been on the inactive memberslist when I returned, just in time for again a new change: Crazzy stepped down as a leader due to his own inactivity for the clan. Who should follow? The only serious choice was slaughter. He had already shown great dedication towards [Immortal] since he joined and after releasing him from doubts, he became the next leader next to Zarock. So this is the point were I pretty much arrived at the present, so I´m almost done here now. I lastly wish to say that [immortal] always has been shaped by their leaders. And since it seems like this clan is immortal until here, I do not want this to be forgotten: [Immortal]´s heart are the values and spirit, the ideals and ideas, the dreams and hopes which the founders seeked. This is to be found within the community, the membership. Noone will be able to recreate the same immortal as we have seen it lead by hyli, ciy, zeph or by dave, hydra and sky and we shouldnt try to. But remember the heart, and if it keeps beating, we will be one and infinite; we will be [Immortal]. Wambo.
