So, you've stumbled upon our little slice of Purgatory have you? Well Dante, you're in for a world of stuff. Mostly autism, but a little bit of friendship (but 99.999% autism). So sit back, maybe get a HOT slice of pizza from the mall, and get to know what your therapist will be hearing about in 6 months. | So, you've stumbled upon our little slice of Purgatory have you?

Beginning life as a Runescape clan in 2003, it morphed into '''[[COMMUNISM]]''' in 2007 when [[Shelarahn]], one of the original founding members, moved to [[World of Warcraft]]. It was here the real history The WIDEVERSE began, with the trolling rich environment of COMMUNISM serving as a launching board for all manner of shenanigry. The next 7 years were a tumultuous time of drama and falling outs between several different WoW guilds, including the infamous '''[[Friend Zone]]''', until Shelarahn took control of COMMUNISM, leading it into its short lived revival until 2015, when in conjunction with several [[Rust]] clans from the [[SomethingAwful]] server, [[Goon Playground]], who all had car theme names (ie. [[FORD]], [[GM]]) combined forces and began raiding pubbies (derogatory term for non-group members) under the name '''[[BMW]]'''. The group renamed twice afterwards, first to '''Wrongthink Tank''' (shortened not long after to '''WTT''') then finally to '''Wideboys''', which is arguably the coolest name possible. | ||
