BMW: Difference between revisions

BMW began at the end of the life span of the Goon run Rust server era. [[Bishyaler]] and [[Shadowgate]] merged their servers in April 2015 to create [[Goon Playground]]. The two largest clans on the server at the time were [[GM]] and [[FORD]] who had been at odds for months, trading raids and feuding in the SA Rust thread. The tipping point came after [[GAY]] and [[WU-TANG]] joined the server and GM launched its biggest raid on the FORD northern base. Many of FORDs members expressed disinterest in continuing to play since GM had become a monopoly on the server. After GM launched a massive raid on the WU-TANG base, the situation reached a peak. A mass of people, including GM, agreed that the server with its current population of just Goons and no pubbies was unsustainable. The decision was made to leave the server for several wipes to allow a pubbie userbase to grow. At this time, many new players were expressing interest in Rust, but had no desire to play with Goons against other Goons. [[Capitaler]] began floating the idea to create a massive Goon rush clan on a public modded server. Ideas were tossed around on what to name this new clan, with some idiot suggesting CARS, but the idea that since the group was going into a foreign land, it should be named after a foreign car company. Also, the joke from GM about [[Rejdukian]] and his German engineering. [[Cal Worthington]] landed on the name BMW, and the next wipe, BMW was created. GM, FORD, WU-TANG, and GAY all merged into one group using [[Woofingtons Mumble]] as a meeting spot.
