The vast history of WTT encompasses all the events that led to the formation and subsequent success of BMW/WTT. Starting with the precursor Runescape clans and small groups of the early Aughts, COMMIEverse history begins to coalesce in 2007 with the formation of the World of Warcraft guild, COMMNUISM. As such, all groups listed are considered a continuation of COMMUNISM and by extension the circle of friends that led them.
Pre-COMMUNISM Era (Pre-2007)
COMMUNISM Era (2007)
Diaspora Era (2007-2008)
After the 1ST COMMUNISM CIVIL WAR, the raiders of COMMUNISM split into SCHOLAR AND A GENTLEMEN, which was a short lived splinter guild led by the anti-Spaceballs faction. After its downfall, all members faded off or joined other raiding guilds. Shelarahn went back to his earlier guild, <Guns for Hire> and the other officers either quit or moved on. Spaceballs and his few loyalists remained in COMMUNISM but the guild was essentially dead and many officers quit, including Spaceballs eventually.,
Shelarahn would later go on to be a major raider in one of Gorgonnashs top raiding guilds, <Damage Done>, along with former Guns for Hire raider Petrus and former COMMIE Secondary.
During the diaspora, Prude had begun playing WoW in smaller meme guilds.
2nd COMMUNISM Era (2008-2010)
With Spaceballs return to the game, COMMUNISM found new breath. Shelarahn returned as an officer and Prude joined for the first time, along with Reckface and Jessikuh, the latter of which was Spaceballs new e-gf (who he had phone sex with). The guild quickly returned to the raiding scene but was mostly stonewalled during The Naxxramas Incident when a 10 man COMMIE raid group tried to clear Anub'Rekhan on 25 man, failing miserably.
Reckface and Jessikuh would later meet irl, prompting The Jorgan Fiasco when it was revealed Jessikuh was catfishing as a scene girl, leading to a Ventrillo interrogation of the duo.
The guild fell apart in January of 2009 when Spaceballs rejoined Umbral Sect and the other raiders left for more successful raiding guilds.
On June 2nd of 2009, Spaceballs would return and sell the guild to Shelarahn for 10,000 gold, marking the end of Spaceballs reign as COMMISSAR. Shelarahn would briefly restart the guild into a moderately successful raiding guild doing Icecrown Citadel.
In April of 2010, Shelarahn would give the guild to one of his officers, bringing about The Dark Age of COMMUNISM.
The Dark Ages (2010-2012)
The short lived reign of the officer Shelarahn entrusted with the guild ended when he sold the guild to long time COMMUNISM fan and group member, Petrus, bought the guild, keeping it for several years as its caretaker.
Shelarahn spent the next few years away at college.
Many of the old members continued raiding. Reckface and Jessikuh would later transfer to Darkspear, joining one of their leading raiding guilds, <Vox Radix>. Prude mostly quit WoW, as did many other COMMIES.
Friend Zone Era (2012-2013)
In April of 2012, Jessikuh contacted many of the COMMIES on Facebook to come play World of Warcraft again with them on Darkspear. They had recently quit Vox Radix and had formed with Prude a new guild, <Friend Zone>. A good many of the old COMMIES would return and soon Friend Zone was a full fledged raiding guild.
However, after several months, Prude quit and tensions grew between Shelarahn and Reckface and Jessikuh, now known as Nawp and Vitaminwater respectively. The guild had merged with a smaller guild of former Alliance players from Gorgonnash who mostly hated Shelarahnn from his COMMUNISM days, that paired with another failed merger that Shelarahn had tanked because of its potential negative nature to Friend Zone, had created bad blood between the duo and Shelarahn. He was eventually kicked when he and another rival guild leader began harassing the boyfriend of Friend Zones streamer, Alinity (Yes, that Alinity).
Friend Zone persisted but outside of the sphere of the COMMIEVERSE.
COMMUNISM Revival Era (2013-2014)
In July of 2013, Prude returned from his exile in Texas. His new lease on life lead him and Shelarahn to revive COMMUNISM from the ashes, along with Prudes high school acquaintance, Pigeon. Several other people from Friend Zone who were also cast out, such as Dlight and Nuggsbunny, transferred to Lightninghoof to begin a new COMMUNISM there. This new guild quickly gained traction and began outpacing the COMMUNISM of old under Shelarahn and Prudes leadership. Many great bits and ops took place, like trolling a cancer patient into thinking Pigeon was a girl and recording a PvP guild leader shitting himself mid-battleground.
With the release of Wildstar however, the group would move on from World of Warcraft into the new game. The boys quickly made their presence known on the Wildstar server Pergo forums, and collected many new COMMIES such as Succ, Solgnir, Dianic, and Gauze, just to name a few. The game never really took off however, and by the time the new WoW expansion, Warlords of Draenor launched, Wildstar was dead and the COMMIES transferred to Emerald Dream to create yet another COMMUNISM, in search of a larger player base.
Emerald Dream proved to be one of the defining chapters in COMMUNISM Revival history, as the groups battles with The ED Cabal would set the tone for the groups foray into Rust years later. Between trolling RPers and hijacking radio shows, the COMMIES once again made a name for themselves on the new server. However, the success was short lived as Prude and Pigeon quickly burned out on the game, in addition to Dianic fucking off somewhere, Gauze being Gauze, and Solgnir and Succ insisting on not transferring to ED.
For the remainder of 2014, COMMUNISM would fall into a slump.
COMMIE CREW Era (2015)
A rebrand to COMMIE CREW in early 2015 along with the exploits of The Skype Crew and The Hailey Saga would breath a new life into the group. Grand Theft Auto 5 and Rust became the groups new things, including COMMIE CREWS on relatively successful Rust server, giving us the House of Wolves. After the server died down, the group would go on to play on pubbie servers, dominating dumb pubbie groups. During this time, Shelarahn would rebrand to Taylor Swift.
In May of 2015, the COMMIES moved Rust servers to Goon Playground, part of an initiative by Taylor to COMMIE CREW to leech off of bigger groups and to slowly take positions of authority in them. The group would play on the server under the clan name GAY, and joined forces with the servers juggernaut clan, GM. When this server too began to die down, the Goons of the various clans joined together to create BMW.
