When Prude returned from Texas, him and Shelarahn revived COMMUNISM on a server suggested by one of the Friend Zone refugees, [[Lightninghoof US]]. | When Prude returned from Texas, him and Shelarahn revived COMMUNISM on a server suggested by one of the Friend Zone refugees, [[Lightninghoof US]]. The venture was shortly successful, bringing in new personalities like [[Donnie]], but fizzled out by the time [[Wildstar]] blew up. Later on, after the downfall of Wildstar, [[Dianic]] formulated a plan for COMMUNISM to relocate to Horde on [[Emerald Dream US]] in the lead up to the next expansion. | ||

However, Dianic would bail on this plan the night of launch, leaving the other COMMIES to figure out what to do. Instead of having a group of raiders ready to join, as Dianic had promised to deliver, COMMUNISM turned to its most effective weapon to recruit: Controversy. Prude, Succ, and Shelarahn all began relentlessly trolling the RP tryhards on the forums, generating a large amount of heat from day 1. This feud eventually culminated in the hacking of HaX Radio and the pirate takeover by COMMUNISM. | |||
Unfortunately, the guild never went anywhere beyond very light dungeon groups, never once stepping into a raid. The project fizzled near the end of 2014, as the group began being interested in [[Rust]]. | |||

Legion was the first expansion that saw no coordinated effort from COMMUNISM, as the group was involved in Rust and the newly created [[BMW]]. Individually, however, several members went on to play for a period of time. Taylor pushed hard to bring BMW into WoW, but his efforts were undercut by rogue admins within the group. | |||

Like Legion, BfA launched with zero interest from BMW. This changed in the first few months of 2020, when as a result of the Coronavirus outbreak and the resulting lockdowns, Blizzard instituted a permanent 100% XP bonus, halving leveling time. [[Capri Sun Tzu]] chose this time to reveal that he was an officer in a fairly successful raiding guild on [[Thrall US]], encouraging Bimmers to roll characters there. Taylor took the initiative to reach out to the guild, resulting in many Bimmers joining. | |||
