At the suggestion of Dlight (a friend who was met in Friend Zone but later left), the group relocated to Lightninghoof and started a new COMMUNISM there. The guild was mildly successful given the population of the server which was low to near non-existent. The COMMUNISTS however gained no real ground and the interest quickly faded around December 2013. By April 2014, the group was all but dead again, with only sporadic Mumble meetings and no real interaction beyond that between the members. | At the suggestion of Dlight (a friend who was met in Friend Zone but later left), the group relocated to Lightninghoof and started a new COMMUNISM there.

The Third Golden Age saw the coming to fruition of a long term dream of COMMUNISM and its subsidiaries and projects: Successful branching into multiple games. The era saw COMMUNISM branch into Guild Wars 2, Rust, Destiny, Minecraft, Tera, and countless other games both MMO or otherwise. | The Third Golden Age saw the coming to fruition of a long term dream of COMMUNISM and its subsidiaries and projects: Successful branching into multiple games.

In August, after realizing the devs of Wildstar had no idea how to run a game, COMMUNISM officially left Pergo to rot. However, we had gained countless friends and influence from our time there and use it to transition into several different MMO's, including a relaunch of our WoW guild and expansion to [[Emerald Dream]]. | In August, after realizing the devs of Wildstar had no idea how to run a game, COMMUNISM officially left Pergo to rot.

COMMUNISM was met with great resistance because the community of Emerald Dream is literally the most autistic place in the world, but a niche was found and for a while it was good. Friends were made such as Jason and NightlyNews. After a few months, most everyone stopped playing again because WoW is still WoW and it’s hard to stay interested. | COMMUNISM was met with great resistance because the community of Emerald Dream is literally the most autistic place in the world, but a niche was found and for a while it was good.

2015 started with an attempt to run a Rust server. Although initially successful, interest within the group and with Rust as a whole was low. After two months, the project was abandoned. In March however, the COMMIES revisited Rust and were active on several servers for a few weeks before going into a hiatus again. In late May, Prude brought the COMMIES into a server hosted by the Goons of SomethingAwful. The server existed for several weeks as smaller factions in friendly rivalries, until the leaders of the factions agreed to move to a different server and combine forces. The group was then called BMW, and existed from late May until late August. Shelarahn was the co-leader of the group and produced several clip videos of the groups antics, referred to as The Rusty Goons series | |||
