 Exactly 1 Year aqo Trunks an I Started a clan called ZA ZombieAssassins.
(Yes I posted this like 3 Months ago, But it was my Fail. This is LEGIT)
Here's the story
Well, Trunks an I knew each other for awhile Via xfire an stuff. We talked about making a clan. I thought of a sniper clan like {FC}. Then he was like Naw,lets make a zombie clan instead.
Here's the History
*Yes I Copied it but it was Better than retyping it.*
First Website
http://zombieassasins.wetpaint.com/
Trunks created the wetpaint site and put up the rules to his server. After that he began recruiting admins to control his server. This is when the well known admins were selected. Admins like Coke, Black Adder, Ice, and many more. They all tried their best to make the server and site as successful and popular as they could. Players were glad that another zombie server had appear. Players that were banned from ZWD had a second change to play zombies. At that time anyone that join the website was automatically a member of ZÅ. Trunks wanted as many members as possible. Everything was going according to Trunks’s plan, when an unforeseen crisis occurred.
The ‘One Hour War’: December 27, 2009 5pm-6pm EST
At 4:54pm EST Dyna sanctioned a war with Trunks’s server. His justification for the war was that trunks was coping his server. Trunks meanwhile was playing zombies on Icefields, panic was on bridge. Everything seem normal, zombies were getting killed and humans were just trying to survive. It wasn’t until zombies started shooting and greanading the panic that we realized something was happening. The admins desperately tried to get control but they couldn’t, rcon wasn’t working. The admins were forced to watch everyone breaking the rules and they were helpless to do anything. Dyna had someone change the rcon and had players grenading and shooting people on the bridge. To stop the chaos that had ensued, Trunks had to choice but to close down his server. Shortly after Trunks and Dyna met in chat room and resolved the conflict. Trunks ended up changing the password and the server name to ZA Zombies. There has a being a shaky truce ever since but both leaders have remained respectful to each other and see each other as friendly competitors.
Postwar: December 28, 2009-January 1, 2010
Still recovering from the shock Trunks proceeded with business as usual. The server and website slowly but steady gained popularity. It was on the 29th that ZÅ gained one of its most important associate, {FC}SlimJim. While he’s not a part of the clan, he’s a guest admin and has been and still is the one of the top contributors to ZÅ‘s server(s) and site. He is most known for starting the second ZÅ server, creating mods just for ZÅ, and creating the new site. New game type modes were also added to spice things up. New members were joining left and right, it seem like everyone wanted to be a part of ZÅ. The incident that happen seem like a distance memory and only those who were there really knew about it. It wasn’t until the 1st of January that we were reminded of that incident. Dyna made a thread saying that we were copying his “stuff” yet again. The problem was again resolved and he hasn’t said anything like that since.
Enlightenment Era: January 2, 2010-January 28,2010
During this period many changes came to ZÅ all of them being for the better. 1/02/10 There was a new test to become admin. This change came about due to members critiquing the old test, saying that it was to easy and that anybody could pass it. The new test instead of focusing on the rules of the server, focused on how to make rcon work and how to deal with offences. The test proved to be far more superior than the last.
1/8/10 The idea of admins being able to veto was brought up. The idea was passed and three days later it was added to the rules.
1/10/10 An idea was brought up that began a series of events that would change ZÅ. It all started with how easy membership was. The idea ended up in Trunks saying that we would eventually move to a new website. Slim proposed that he would start working on the new website.
1/18/10 The idea of ZÅ night was introduced. Everyone was ecstatic at the idea and couldn’t wait to play. Due to some loopholes some admins couldn’t join, so there was a change to the name of the event. Instead of ZÅ night it was changed to ZÅ and admins night. The event was schedule to run from 7pm EST to whenever people left. ZÅ and admins night was schedule to be on that Saturday.
1/20/10 Trunks “asked” Slim if he could make mods just for this glorious occasion.
1/21/10 Slim replied saying that he was already working on a Bloodgulch mod, the mod however needed to be downloaded. Immediately after players saw this, they asked where and how they could do that. Also on the same day Black Adder made a thread showing a picture that he made and asked about adding it to the site. He got the approval and it was immediately added on the home page of the site. Since then the picture has being the main poster for ZÅ.
1/22/10 The mod page was added as so was the link to download the mod. Few hours later detailed instructions were added to the site so players knew how to install and make the modded map work.
1/23/10 ZÅ hosted its first ZÅ and admins night. It was a success, people liked the mod and were having fun. It was so such a blast that it was decided that ZÅ and admins night would be hosted every Saturday at 7pm EST and end whenever people left.
1/25/10 Slim surprised ZÅ when he declared a clan war between {FC} and [ZÅ]. This would be ZÅ’s first clan war and they were challenged by a mighty clan. The clan war was set to be played on their server which is on Bloodgulch with a modified version of Skelito’s Snipers Dream Team Mod (SDTM) on February 6th at 3pm EST. The clan war was to last one hour. Trunks had a sign up sheet made for people that wanted to join, he also told his members to train hard, as this was going to be a tough fight.
1/27/10 Players were tired of wetpaint giving them viruses. There was a complain thread made and Slim saw this as a call for him to finish the new site.
1/28/10 Slim “finished” the site. It wasn’t fully done but it was operational and ZÅ could move there right away. ZÅ had a new home.
New Kingdom: January 29, 2010-Present Day
Intermediate Period: January 29, 2010-February 4, 2010
Some ZÅ members were already a part of the new site however; many didn’t know about it. During this time Trunks made the clan members aware that a new site had been made. A thread was made showing members how to join to the new site. The process of relocation ZÅ had begun. It would take a while but when it was finished it would be better than the last. At this time Trunks also said that the old site would be inactive after a few days and that everybody needed to come to this one. By the end mostly all the members had already transition to the new site. During the transition the concept of a Ban on Sight (BoS) list was mention. The idea was approved and shortly after we had a BoS and some players were already on it. There was also a change of how players could joined ZÅ. Instead of automatically being a member when they joined the site, they had to apply. The application consists of multiple questions
{FC} Vs. [ZÅ]: February 5, 2010-February 6, 2010
On the Friday 5th Trunks held a special ZÅ night. It was special since this event was only to train for the upcoming war. On the 6th players were in the server an hour before for practice. It was basically to get a feel of what they would be facing. Five minutes before it started everyone that was going to participate was there. {FC} had seven players, while ZÅ had eight. At 3pm the clan war started. In the beginning things seem to be tied but after a while it was apparent that {FC} had the upper hand and were gained the lead. Midway through the fight {FC} had a big lead and before the war finished, five members had left the fight. Trunks, Coke, and Black Adder were left to fight the war by them selves. After the war finish it was apparent that {FC} won. ZÅ didn’t have a change in the end since only the kills of those who stayed counted. Trunks and Coke weren’t happy that their members deserted them. Action was taken to those that left. {FC} was way more superior during the fight, it wouldn’t of had matter if all the members had stayed. In the end ZÅ lost its first clan war.
Golden Age: February 7, 2010-Present Day
After the clan war, everything went back to normal. The server was being run efficiently and new players wanted to become part of ZÅ. The size of the clan grew, as new members were being admitted to the clan. Trunks decided with all the new members, that clan rules were needed so that they don’t embarrass ZÅ. On the 10th official clan rules were added to the site. Servers rules had also been changed to fix loopholes, and it has remain unchanged for a while. New admins were also chosen. The server was staying up longer since we had more admins. Slim still works on mods just for ZÅ night, and every time they become more and more elaborate. On the 17th the history of ZÅ was added to the site, that way new members and old can know and remember about the rise of ZÅ to power. Everything was going how Trunks had planned. His server is one of the top servers that plays “zombies” and his clan continues to grow. ZÅ is still on the rise, and only time will tell what else it has in store for them.
New Management: April 3, 2010
The server was down for almost a week. Trunks had was having a difficult time paying for the server and was occupied with other task. Finally Saturday came and still no server, what made it worse is that it was clan night. Having given Trunks time to pay for the server, Black Adder decided to take matters into his own hands. Not wanting his fellow members to miss a clan night due to a lack of a server, he bought one. Trunks wasn’t active on the server nor the site. Due to this inactiveness Black Adder sought to strengthen the clan by having a leader that was always active. As he is always active both on the server and site he though he was fit for the job. After Trunks saw what he did he was pleased and was happy to give him the position of leader, he could also now focus in other aspects of his life. The new server password would stay the same in honor of our creator, as without him none of this would have had happen. Zombie Åssassins now belongs to Black Adder and he will make it rise beyond any ones wildest dreams. The Golden Age still continues.
Broken, Beat & Scarred
After a long & Successful run The ZÅ website, hosted at CXR.CC (Also partnered with 0cost.net & 0cost.me) came under fire from multiple fronts. it was as if the world descended apon the site. But Slim, being the crazy mate in the group, Quickly resurrected what he could in the form of a new "Temp" site hosted on the Food Clan's Server. After sifting through the ruble left by limited files, "The Four Horsemen" stood their ground and began searching for Bastards who had attacked the [ZÅ] Website. While at first the attackers were unknown, we soon traced it too a group of players who wish to sabotage all other clans. By this time the DNS servers had updated & the domain was once again under fire from abroad. Slim contacted "The Code God", and worked through the night to secure everything possible from a code standpoint. Meanwhile {FC}"Mama"Taco had begun to "Seek & Destroy" the people responsible.
After a few days, we were able to gather a large list of "attempted" hacking by various people worldwide, while none were successful, it simply showed how much they wanted this down. This further prompted Slim to introduce a form of Super-Nova styled security script, and it turned out to be so strong that we had a 75% return attack rate via the reverse connection of the TCP protocol. This gave the site a near limitless increase in security. The Clans continue to move forward after this, while scarred forever, the brokenness was repaired swiftly & it shows the kind of brotherhood {FC} & [ZÅ] have. The Golden Age Continues...

New Password: July 6, 2010
Due to the server being "overun" by players who don't know the rules and making the server chaotic, Black Adder decided to change the password to the server effective imitatively. Everyone had to retake the server password test, there was NO EXCEPTIONS. This time players were expected to not give out the password to their "friends" because that's what made the server go chaotic. Since players had to retake the test they would be held at a higher standard.
Well,Please post your Memories an Other stuff.

What do I remember....damn. Day one stepping in the server. ODSTR tags were still fresh, heh. It was hang 'em high pistols, regs I believe. It was flipping chaotic. Noobs not listening and all. And I said, "I would just love to admin this server." Exactly those words (being sarcastic mind you.). Then of course Trunks thought I was being serious. So I sit here thinking to myself now.....WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING?!?!?!
