Hi guys!

I have made a rough sketch of the history of the FCC, to the best of my knowledge. You can find the link and read about it here:

I can only imagine that fooballguys is the only clan that would rival us in age/richness of history.

Only 1 remark - you call the initial group of political activists "far right" and then you say that they were anarchists and libertarians. The term "far right" is usually used for neonazi movement (or may be religious fundamentalists) and things like that, not for anarchists or libertarians.

Otherwise - an interesting review of the clan's history :)

2006 is the year that I joined my very first forum. I was so young at the time, practically a baby. :)

Also interesting that Protest Warrior was an (economically) far right activist group since Super is a libertarian. :P I guess it's just a bit of a coincidence! That invisionfree forum had an impressive number of posts, over 100k. O.o I remember back in 2006 people were making their forums on invisionfree. It was the most popular free forum at the time. They changed to Zifboards now. It's too bad that Jack disappeared, but at least Sinistral Gamer and Aura Guardian were able to keep the clan afloat.

Here's what the FCC clan looked like in 2014. https://web.archive.org/web/20140215020121/https://www.warlight.net/Clans/?ID=17

Thanks Gallien. I am not well versed in polticial ideology as I should be. is "Right leaning" a better term?

Wow, so my friend Aitor was the Vice-Director there! Never knew that.

P.S. Yes, I think "right-leaning" is a better description in this context.

Interesting idea , Maybe I should do one of these for Outlaws.

I believe the more Aura grown into the leadership role so did the clan and it's showing, On RTL Aura improved and so did the clan in CL. As a leader you've got to show by example and Aura empathised this.

To maintain a strategically improvement while withstanding a multi-cultural community with RP/Diplomacy players makes the achievement more respectful.

I think FCC is probably better now than ever. Their activity has significantly picked up within the last year.

Thank you guys for your wonderful comments. The FCC has come a long way, but still has much work left to be done. We are working to continue to build a better clan as we progress into the future.

If you ever find out anything more about the history of the FCC, please feel free to share. We would be happy to accept new information, and you can either PM it to me, send it on the FCC discord, or reply to this thread if it is still open.
