DnA

Hello,

This year marks the 10th anniversary of Dark Negative Anti-Social. For 10 strong years we have continued to improve and develop as the time goes by; ever-evolving to stay relevant in a community that shifts perspective on a daily basis. For years, we have maintained a very specific outlook and enforced high standards for our members, by only considering those who stood out from the crowd, the unique and multi-talented individuals who possess the skills and knowledge to one day become more than just clan members; who would go on to become important figures within the community, be it Moderators, Managers or even VC-MP Beta Testers - Dark Negative Anti-Social has always been that stepping stone for further accomplishment. We are very proud and privileged to have been able to offer such a service that not many clan members may actually by aware of, and in return we never asked for anything, it was our duty to make sure that only the best succeed whether it be in the clan or outside of it.

As times have changed, so has the clan; starting back in 2006, three talented players who's love of smoking cannabis and listening to hardcore trance music combined to form Dark Negative Anti-Social, a small clan that was created solely for the purpose of allowing three close friends to play games and chat together. From 2006 to 2016, DnA grew from having just 3 members to over 70 talented and professional clan members. We could of never predicted this to happen, and without the members we would never have succeeded.

I would like to personally thank every single past and present clan member, regardless of your status, your continued support and belief in the clan kept as alive for 10 years. We are forever grateful and we wish only the best for you in the future.

Unfortunately, as with everything, all good things must come to an end. We are no longer able to maintain the clan to the standards that we are happy with. The future of the community is not set in stone and neither are we, things are constantly changing, the player base is getting younger and younger by the day and the current generation of old timers and veteran players are moving on to bigger and better things. We cannot continue to stay relevant anymore in today's community and it's time for a younger generation to lead the way into the future, whether we like it or not, it's beyond our control to alter it.

With that said, it is with great sadness and regret that today we are announcing the retirement of Dark Negative Anti-Social. Today marks the beginning of the end for us. We have had such a fantastic time throughout the years, meeting and recruiting some of the best players this community has to offer and the privilege to share memories with the community and the clan is something that none of us will ever forget.

Thank you everyone for your support throughout the years, your kindness and friendship has propelled us from 'zero to hero'. Thank you to every player who voted for us to win Littlewhitey's Clan of the Year three times in a row! We will never forget you. Our past and present members can ride off into the sunset knowing that they were once part of one of VC-MP's longest running clans of all time.

Although we cannot predict the future, we would like to wish that the community once again regains its strength and stability and continues to impress, evolve and succeed well into the future. There may be a huge amount of pressure upon the younger generation and while the road ahead might be tough, we believe that you can do it with sheer determination and motivation of a better, greater and more advanced gaming community.

This week I will be closing the forum and a memorial page will be displayed instead of the forum. The memorial page will remain live until our server hosting comes to an end, which is completely up to Crys. Every member will be honoured on the memorial page and positive quotes will be added from anyone who wishes to leave one in this topic.

On behalf of myself, Darfy, Avenger, Baldachyn, Yaceq and the entire DnA clan roster, we thank you once again for everything and wish everyone the best in the future. I would like to personally thank the following people for their contributions to the clan;

Darfy: Thank you for everything you have done for the clan, your administration expertise has helped pave the way of the clan for many years. You are one of the best players I have ever had the privilege of becoming friends with. You have proved time and time again that you know what you are talking about and you have been detrimental to the success of the clan.

Avenger: Thank you Avenger, you are a fantastic guy who has made me laugh too many times to count, I always knew that you would be the perfect choice for clan administrator and I'm sure the original leaders would be proud to know that you are ranked amongst them as a Leader.

Baldachyn: You brought DnA back from the grave during its hiatus in 2010/2011 alongside Darfy and Yaceq - without you none of this would of continued today. It's a sad day to be retiring the clan, however we owe everything to you. You brought us back, turned it all around and proved again that DnA is a strong and formidable force in the community.

Smoke2joints: Although smoke has since left the clan and the community, the chances of smoke reading this are quite slim, regardless I would like to offer my apologises once more for the way things ended between us, I hope that one day we can talk again. Smoke, you have been in this clan since the very beginning, alongside oVeRdOsE, OpHiDiAn and Analbomb. You are the reason this clan has been successful, without you, we would of fallen coming out of the gate. Thank you for everything smoke.

Crys: Thank you for hosting the forum! You have allowed me to learn a hell of a lot! Designing and coding the forum has been fantastic, it's been my outlet for creativity and learning. I have gained a massive amount of skills that I will use in my future, thank you!

And finally, I would like to thank our leaders, oVeRdOsE, OpHiDiAn and Analbomb, if not for you guys, DnA wouldn't have existed! Although we haven't heard from you in years, we still remember you and hope you live great and fulfilling lives.

- Ryz, Darfy, Avenger, Baldachyn & Yaceq
