Friend showed me in 08 or 09 some time, saw the urban clan video and loved it so signed up with various shitty accounts until I stuck with Erth in 2010. That's what I properly got into the game and consider my "start point".
Joined raid off the bat in a recruitment thread. Holy shit those guys were awesome. They took me in completely fresh and helped me learn the basics of foruming and stuff.
Just all round an amazing bunch of guys that I wish I'd kept more in touch with.
Eventually I found myself getting more involved in the ingame scene, started making a little name for myself playing taekkyon, and raid was never an ingame clan, they were forum and irc based.
With that I regretfully left raid and eventually ended up joining Jolly Roger at blackbelt, despite their 7th dan min, belt at the time. Met some amazing people that I still see from time to time ingame. Niko, Brucia, Missuse, Dropkick and the likes.
Got GM while in Jolly and started to become better in taekkyon.
I got into a disagreement with one of the members and ended up leaving Jolly. Although if I'm honest with myself I kind of just wanted to apply to Urban. For the life of me I can't remember what we argued about but I'm sure it was nothing.
So that's how I cam to apply to Urban. Got super into my ingame stuff and ended up progressing to clan mod, and smod and uniteam and gm lead and stuff.
co lead urban for a bit, got admin soon after getting gm lead
started using skype and mumble, began actually speaking to people on the forums and stuff.
I got to know the [NO] guys really well and eventualyl Urban began to die. Death by league of legends really, so I went over to [NO] and here I am.
Met up with a load of the guys there irl and consider most if not all of them good friends.

Went inactive because I became really ill last year, came back got GM lead here we are.

Also somewhere in there i made erthtk and became bad at the game, rip glory days
