| CF) has recently allowed XPLICT to join their clan under the alias of CF)Tru.Judger (my old aka was Tru.Judger[BG], Tru.Judger.CF, and obviously Judger.CF). When I saw XPLICT in op sess claiming to be Judger.CF, I obviously was interested in this annoyance. At first I thought it was a joke, one of our older .CF members playing a prank perhaps. Obviously, we are cwing CF) for the battle of CF on east very soon. We have been waiting days, months, years to play CF), ever since we first found out about them. They are, for obvious reasons, on our territory. We have been established as a clan on US East exclusively since 12/11/2004. For all that time, Snake/Phoxx always told us "we will cw soon", and gave reasons such as not being ready. Well now they are gearing up for this war that they have been working on for all this time, and using such players as smurfs who are only interested in cwing our clan. Need proof? As far as I know, 99% of respectable clan leaders wouldn't allow this to happen. It ruins the meaning of the game, of the clan war. If he's not even wanting to be apart of this clan, why should we be playing him? I would be making the same case if this kid was terrible, and if it stands, because it's not going to make a difference in the outcome. I know myself, CroN and Graves would all ban said member for such behavior. But does CF) have that kind of integrity? Only time will tell. | |

| Edit: not sure why the message format came out this way lol
Well here is my view point on CF) and this comment isn't even bm. I honestly don't see the logic behind this clans actions. I'll just explain from the beginning. .CF has been around since 04.... 04! thats 6 years! This isn't even saying as individuals when we started to play the game. This was just the creation of Cold.Fire. .CF wasn't even founded on a couple guys saying "hey wanna make a clan?" "yeah that sounds like fun" *clan made* .CF was founded though [BG] the ORIGINAL BattleGods (yes Bbg copied BG). A clan which gained notice from around 99-05. Thats over 6 years of existence. The reason BG even died was because most of its active members helped form the creation of .CF so in a way .CF is BG. The reason it changed was political issues. We didn't do gay shit like what happened with Raging and had 2 raging clans. op Raging- and op Raging. for 2 different raging clans. We created a completely new tag. Another example is BbG. They use the same exact name except they add Brutal in front but lets look at that clans creation. Certain members tried to join BG.. they failed.. so to solve this they joined a completely different server and they STILL didnt make the same name. The put Bbg.. which in my opinion is still pretty stupid but at least it was divided between 2 server. BG on east and BBG on west. They still had the respect to not make it BG on east BG on west.
Now lets look at CF). We as .CF has been around and made a mark on east for a very long time. Before SCD we were hosting daily tourney in our channel for the entire community to play in. All of cristal knew the channel and would enter. .CF would win a good amount of them too proving our strength. Now here comes along CF) and when they first made this clan we found out fairly quickly (a proof of our activity) and we even told them "why make the same tag as us? just change it to something else.." yes there is 1 difference between the . and the ) but im sure both clans have come across "are you .CF?" "are you CF)" because random people have trouble noticing the difference. Yet CF) insists on having the same tag. Do they expect us to change tags??
This isn't even the end of the issue. Try to understand this logic. CF) "feels" they are the better clan yet how many reps do they have beating us in comparison to us beating them? Also whenever we asked for a CW (we wanted to have a clanwar where the loser removes the tag) they backed out. They always say things like ".CF sucks" "we will beat you" etc etc etc yet when it comes to a clanwar the comment is "we need to prepare" for any other clan prepare means something like practicing with all the members..getting the rust off.. pretty much just getting ready for games. but not with CF) prepare means practicing for months to IMPROVE skill (not unrust) AND recruit more members who are "good". Is this really preparing for a war? or is this the standard "preparing" EVERY clan does at all times clanwar or not. recruiting..playing games..practicing etc. This is not preparing.. this is dodging until CF) hopefully gets stronger. It's like me saying "cw? nah lets hold it off because i want to practice until i reach first place in vgt 1v1 ladder and our clan members all make top 10." Doing this doesnt even show current skill. Most of all it proves CF) is ALL talk when saying how great they are. Don't get me wrong.. I'm sure they are good people once you get to know them.. but I don't see how they can have pride and self respect when wearing a tag of a clan which has been around way longer and which is currently still around and is originally more noticed. The also use the excuses of "we're waiting for sc2" which is something people have been saying for years and I understand sc2 is closer then ever right now but sc2 will be low money. At least make yourself CF) the low money clan or something.
I wish it ends here but there is yet more.. CF) used to mean Chronic Fatigue. I don't understand that name.. is that suppose to be the common excuses for the clan skill level? "wow how did you guys lose?.. oh nvm i forgot your CF) the Chronic Fatigues" I guess they eventually realized this so you know what they did? THEY CHANGED THE NAME!!....but not that tag?? now its Chronic Facture. What the hug is that? "we are the Chronic Art of Construction" I don't even know what that suppose to mean. Maybe it's a bunch of people with Chronic Fatigue trying to construct something.. I don't know.. my point in all this though is why not just change the tag too? It's like they do this on purpose lol.
Lastly on top of all this is the annoyance. Not only do they go around talking shit but they seek this kind of attention. This is one of the worst things any clan can do. You have members going around SEEKING to bm. A good example is the screenshot above. I blame the clan leaders for something like this. They sell themselves like prostitutes in hopes of getting better yet in the meantime.. among the starcraft community which is rather quite small. They continually grow a larger and larger negative reputation. My guess would be the only reason people might even respect CF) at first is because they get confused with .CF I even feel bad for CF) in a way because they are doing anything they can to get better and they try valuing their members and defending them meanwhile you have people like XPLICT who joins solely to cw against .CF because he has a grudge against us. At this rate CF) isn't improving and they will continue to not improve. In fact they might even reach the negatives and could be better off making a new clan anyway. maybe they feel they have pretty records.. I have CroNuS.CF at 2k games and with a ladder ranking and that account got deleted so I made CroN.CF at 0-0 I really don't see why they dont change the name. Yeah I guess they might get more points by progressing the clan in this way but like I also said they sell more self respect/honor for every point gained/lost and members recruited.
Oh and 1 more thing is they also copy our members names. Like CF)Judger or CF)Tru.Judger. This is so fucked up yet the clan leaders let it slide. Its like me getting on VGT as Spartan[nK) and making a thread called [nK) and asking people to join. The whole community will think 2 things. 1. this has to be a hugging joke. 2. This guy/clan is so stupid and sad. Spartan would probably ban them. Now we have CF) members impersonating and spreading false information around the community on a CF leader/VGT Admin.
This wasn't even completely my perspective of the situation but is more so all the actual things which have happened between the 2 clans. Im sure if this rivalry was made in a more public lighting then CF) would be scarred for life in the starcraft community. I guess its good for them that they still live in the shadows and the most spot light they will ever view is the light within .CFs shadow. | |
