I wanted to come up with some clever joke for today, like "I'm quitting" or "kill3m and tail are leaving clan, so I'm leaving, too. Atomic is the new leader", but then I realized that people will either 1 - not read it, 2 - see through my lies and think I'm not funny, or 3 - take it seriously and quit. So, instead of a joke, I looked up how many posts in catbook we all made, and here are the stats: kifart 439 tailspin 267 kill3msoft 182 twinweapon 171 carbonex24 168 sinvaj916 147 n0obkilla1 120 sousuke89 111 atomicgunz 70 krazycanuk 39 vacaville 23 xorgix 20 mar00n 13 drewster 7+ + + Feb 17th + + +
So with the new "Modification to Memory" HackShield bug, last night (16th) a lot of Hell Catz were given bans. KifArt was one of them. As a consequence, everyone in the clan received this letter:+ + + Jan 13th + + +
Shortly after we were all unbanned again, but the letter is still there to scare us, and remind us not to cheat or do any "Memory Modifications". Awaiting for a reply from K2 on whether we can ignore this message.
Good news to fellas without premium: Tailspin's feeling generous and holding another competition tonight! When: 7PM PST, Today, Tuesday, US_WEST What: FFA Tournament Prize: 1 Month Gold Premium Who: Any non-premium hellcat. This time it will be a two-game event. Different maps. The person with the total number of kills above tailspin's and all others wins. In a case where there is a tie, there will be a third match to break the tie. Happy Killing.+ + + Jan 12th + + +
We have a little competition today, sponsored by tailspin: When: Today, Monday, January 12th, 9:00PM PST Where: Hell Catz FFA room What: Khali FFA Contest Prize: Gold Premium 30 Days promo.+ + + Jan 9th+ + +
Dear Hell Catz, we all remember when we got this in our boxes:+ + + Jan 8th + + +What had happened was the following: We had a scrim with a clan New Hope, lead by Speedvirus. We got OPKed in the first round, and then the fight was more ordinary. We won. The kids on the other side were furious. So they made this video: youtube.com/watch?v=x5v9MaoKGus. Even though this video is obviously fake: it has screenshots instead of videos, they overlay of the sign is done badly, the numbers don't add up and etc. They also left us bad comments (which are still not removed, so if someone wants to submit a ticket about it, please do so). Now, speedvirus was hacking, and K2 noticed that someone was ghosting the game. It is my understanding that because *someone* was ghosting and WE got the bad ratings for that scrim, K2 banned us. It would be nice to know exactly, but that's what I have from what K2Pixel said and what I heard from other people on WR. Then the battle began. There were massive amounts of peopel who supported our cause in getting the clan active again. Thank you all so much. Surprisingly, support came even from people who we fight with all the time. Thank you guys a lot. To my knowledge there has been around 20 tickets submitted to K2 about this matter. There probably were more. We also received countless "Wth? HC is the most legit clan in WR. This is bullsh*t!" from all sort of folk. Tailspin and I submitted massive letters to K2 support and administrators on forums. Then, there was silence. During which kifart was banned for 24 hours (for more details you can read the following post: forum.warrock.net/index.php?showtopic=136289). In the end, there was light. Speedvirus was banned for hacking and powerleveling. You can find the proof here: youtube.com/watch?v=mmET0ZiLtyo. Now, some New Hope hackers are still out there and they deserve to be let down for what they did. So if you see billuster, shampu or daxxxx1, do not hesistate to: assault them, kick them from your rooms, blist them and etc. Liars, hackers, and cheaters will not be tolerated by the warrock community. We never did get an official response from K2. All we got was this:
But, that is good enough. Hell Catz 4eva. Update: Later one that day: Here are a few letters that were submitted to K2 to get this matter fixed. If you have also submitted a letter to K2 or contacted them in some other way, please e-mail it to k2-letters at hellcatz dot net and I will post them here. Letters: Letter from AtomicGunz. Letter from KifArt. Letter from KifArt. Letter from TailSpin. Letter from TailSpin. Letter from TailSpin. Letter from TailSpin.
Sorry clan, I was drunk when bubba asked me to reset his password. That being said, all the passwords have been reset. Please send me a private message on ventrilo to what you want your password to be. Thank you for understanding. Update (later on that night): I fixed it. Sorry if you were trying to login in that hour. It should all be back to normal now.+ + + Jan 6th + + +
Our clan is currently banned. This is until further notice. We are actively submitting tickets and talking to GMs about this. If you would like to show your support, please submit a ticket. More details will be posted as we know them.+ + + August 3 + + +
The ventrilo server went offline today. Tailspin called the maintenance crew, and they said they encountered some issues, and they don't know when the server will be back online. So in the meantime (or maybe permanently), we're moving to v2.defconservers.com. Please update your ventrilo(s). P.S. Twinweapon left today. Good luck with all his future endevours.+ + + July 23 + + +
Long time no post. I've been lazy. Just one thing: I opened the ventrilo to public. The password is displayed to everyone. Lobby is open, all the other rooms are closed to registered Hell Catz, so yeah. Have fun. Polite guests are welcome.+ + + May 30 + + +
HC Clan Stats Fetcher is updated. Current version is 2.17. Now it asks you for the Clan ID. No more passing line arguments. Now if you can read - you can use it. Good luck looking up other clan!+ + + May 29 + + +
The story below is posted here: http://hellcatz.net/?hatred. This is just in case you want to share it, like I do... Of course, you shouldn't unless you're as happy as I am about what happened. Just wanted to remind you that there's this: http://hellcatz.net/?gstr. All those East Coast clans that lag so much and know they do that never have as much fun as we do. :/ Nubs. Oh, this is very important. Atomicglry (I read it as atomic-girly) = Atomicgunz. P.S. I'm really gonna kick some people this weekend. P.S. #2 - What do you guys think about all the beef I have with East Coast Laggers? Do you want me to be more polite to them? After all, they're all just little unmannered kids. What about West Coast Wannabes? It's not their fault they're retarded (PC: Mentally Challenged). All feedback is welcome in CatBook.+ + + May 28 + + +
Today, Kif will tell you a little story about a little clan called "The Hatred". Imagine a bunch of teenagers that go to gaming conventions that think they are the best. Okay, now imagine that they have $$$ and spend all their time and money on games. Now, they think they're the best, so to prove it, they make a clan and stuff it with everyone with nice KDR. Doesn't matter if they're lvl 2 and live in Korea or lvl 50 and use an aug. Well, turns out they're not as good as they claim they are, so what do they do? They open up more clans and start power-leveling their clan. K2 Warns them saying that this kind of behavior will not be tolerated, but what do they do? They do it again. Then Kif comes along. They have been jealous of Kif for a long time, because they don't understand how can someone be happy without a good scrim record, so every time they see someone is happy, they start bitching. Too bad Kif always owns them when they play in the same room, and they always use the same excuse: "we're not trying"... Well neither does Kif. :/ Kif also has them all black listed, so they wouldn't spoil his happiness. Kif, being a curious one in the statistical division, keeps tabs on all the major clans, and guess what he finds? A clan (Killers United) with only three players that has since it's creation done nothing but lose to The Hatred three times a day. Kif is a good, upholding citizen of K2Network, so he reports this to the public: Forum post reporting this to K2 Little did Kif know, K2 is also angry at those little stuck up kids, so what do they do? - Disband. Both Killers United and The Hatred get disbanded. Kif couldn't be happier. He got some cheaters off the ranking chart, and tought the nubs a lesson that cheating isn't rewarding in the long run. Well, the next day, the former members of The Hatred (their leader and sid) go on my X-Fire and try to "reason" with me. Jaspur was the one who gave them my X-Fire. Notice none of them read the forums. They don't care about the community so they didn't know anything. Anyhow, they also didn't think to get my xfire from my post :/ Anyhow, again, first Jaspur said a bunch of **** and got blocked. Next came Sid. He was talking his usual bullshit saying how much they own and he thinks I'm jealous. He kept asking me "why did you get us disbanded?". He never actually let me answer... he just kept on venting... Then he changed his story, he said that he never power leveled, and that the other clan is just a nub clan that tried beating them, and that I should buy them a new clan, because I got theirs disbanded. Lol. What a nub, as if I was gonna fall for that. He was literally begging me to buy a clan and give it to him :/ Well, I guess he couldn't handle that I wasn't telling him to f*** off, so he started swearing, and got black listed. Now he's done. Then Haterized came. Said he was the leader of The Hatred. Asked me the same stupid question, then said he doesn't want to know. I told him he's ignorant. He said he wishes I would die. I told him games are about playing and HC is about playing with nice people, but he didn't get it. They never do :/ Incidentally, I took the liberty of taking two screenshots:
*** Cough... They both admitted that they were power leveling. Hm.. they got banned for it, and Kif got his good night sleep. Don't you like stories with good endings?+ + + May 23 + + +
UPDATE LATER ON THAT DAY: I updated my HC_Fetch program.. the updated version (That you should use, not to tick off K2) is here: http://rapidshare.com/files/117140174/HC_Fetch_2.12.exe.html Again, I'm looking for feedback. Guess what? I spent the whole day today writing this stupid script, instead of playing with you guys. I'm very sorry! All I wanted to do was to update the levels on the roster, but ended up spending hours writing a script to do it for me, and I still haven't updated the roster. What I have done, is made a tool that does it for me. It did get me banned for a few hours because K2 thought I was trying to pick passwords or something. Anyhow, the tool is public, and you can try it yourselves - Here's the link: *** REMOVED BECAUSE THE UPDATED VERSION. SEE ABOVE *** All feedback is welcome and appreciated. Dear Catz, please note - this tool can look up stats on any clan, just give it the clan id as the first argument (ask me if you don't know what that means). I find the tool a little handy... For example, here are the stats for top 2 clans: ** Most Valuable Players ** Total Players: 30 Low-Level Players: 0 (0.0%) Average Real Level: 37.7 Average KDR: 1.870 ** Team Riot ** Total Players: 19 Low-Level Players: 7 (36.0%) Average Real Level: 21.3 Average KDR: 1.920+ + + May 22 + + +
I'm on summer vacation for the next three weeks. I'm going to be playing a lot now. Expect scrims, find scrims, we're gonna scrim, got it? :D First order of business - kicking people. This weekend some rookies get booted. Second order - improvement. If you have ideas for improvement for us -> Catbook away! I'm looking forward to your suggestions. P.S. Like twinweapon has suggested, disable VoIP... log into warrock.net, go to My Account -> Activate VoIP and click "Deactivate VoIP". That is of course, if you're not using it.+ + + May 13 + + +
I updated the levels and roster on the website.
Here are the people who're not registered on the website:
abolish, rokangle, stufin3, 1oblivion1, vacaville, mikikichi, hexagonal,
fresh2toes, sugarlipss, ihave1bar, greypupon, rollblast, batman, v3t3ran9,
steelfalcn, mrnubowns and adiosmf
I'm not sure all of them will stay with us, but they can register and
participate in the catbook.
+ + + May 12 + + +
Alright.. Someone messed up the catbook so that none of us could use it anymore.
This will not stand! I will find the bastard and crusify him!
Here's the list of nicknames active for the past couple days:
john
kantoklas1
snowiix
tailspin
torgos
carbonex24
twinweapon
dcsniper89
What I'm asking is which one of you cursed in capital letters? Due to restrictions
on my hosting account, I can't actually tell who this person is, so I'm hoping
you will all turn against one another and give up the culprit.
P.S. To get catbook to work again I had to erase the messages from last two
weeks. In case you were wondering what happened to them.
mrpjhaxorz is out again ... mrpjtoast is an asshole, and I do not want assholes
to play under our avatar. Sorry mrpjwaffls. Wish we could work something out.
There's a flood of new players. Hopefully some of them are good players or fun
ones. Either way, I hope it's not as lonely anymore.
+ + + May 5 + + +
Just wanted to say mrpjroxorz is back in the clan. Apparently some nub (cough mrpjtoast) was playing on it, ruinig the KDR and messing up Hell Cat reputation. waffls said he'll talk to him. So under those conditions he's back :D A lot of people are taking a break from WR. I should take one too, to do well on my finals, but don't be surprised if you see me even more often because I will be "releasing stress." Also, I'm sorry guys, but I am raising the bar for adding friends and nub accounts. Seems we have already too many bad players, and the hassle of adding and deleting your nub acounts after a few days is not what I signed up for. So in the future, please tell your friends to get their level to lvl 18. I will overlook the KDR for them, but that's about it. As far as nub accounts, if you don't have premium on it, or it's not up to level 11, I won't think it's serious.+ + + April 25 + + +
We won four scrims today, yay :) We also added a lot of new people. Not all of them are good or qualifying, but the idea is that some of them will stay and some of those who stay will get really good. I also made another requirement to joint he clan: ping less than a 100 to all our California players (Kif, Tail and etc..) Hell Catz will not be affiliated with laggers.+ + + April 19 + + +
Will I lost that scrim against Hell Cat. It was me against the two of them, and despite them being lvl 1 and lvl 3, they won, because they worked as a team. I always killed one, but the other one always finished me off. Waffles is back in? Maybe we'll be seeing him.+ + + April 18 + + +
A few short announcements...
Superman quit today. Best wishes to him in BF2.
He left me his batman account.. what to do with it?
We have a scrim with "Hell Cat" in 11 hours.. it will be 10:30 AM on a
freaking Friday... I accepted thinking it was thursday night, but I was off
by 112 hours... Sorry guys. If anyone can make it, let me know, otherwise
it's going to be me against 4 stealing european laggierz :)
+ + + April 12 + + +
W00t. KifArt's lvl 48! Haha! Finally! Chairmen can now do the scrimming administration. That means Tailspin => you're the scrim person when I'm not on! Azen quit because apparently he didn't see me enough... That's what he had to say after being gone for 5 months and not seeing me for a few weeks (when I was actually on). He didn't look on the site... or anything else. We're recruiting again! As lots of cheating high lvls got banned... and people have clearly deserted WarRock, I'm lowering the admission standsards. Now our newly admitted people have to be Lvl 20+ and KDr 1.20+, AND people living in California, or nearby states ONLY! Since I'm not on every day to bug the hell out of all of you, Lieutenants are allowed to recruit as well! With clan chat and all the other perks of WarRock now, them getting added to xfire clan and website will come later (those that stick around, will be added!). Lastly, I moved some ranks around, so there are more lieutenants now ;)+ + + Mar 13 + + +
I'm tired of WR ... I kicked Brandon from clan because he let Jack play on his account. I'm not in the best of moods, and little kids telling me crap is the last thing I need, and if they have my cat next to their name, it means fury from me. Torgos accepted the invite. Wow? I wonder if he'll stick with us. I also let dominateu2 back in... no xfire of catbook priviledges, but avatar and ventrilo are ok. I'd rather be safe than sorry, and if it makes him happier, then so be it. Today, I finally blocked last king's xfire name. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. There won't be a third time. If anyone cares, here's a list of people who joined Hell Catz within the first week (original members): - kifart - Still here - snowiix - Still here - smiley04 - Quit WR in end of summer - cokehead1g - left for another clan in Fall. Cheated. Got banned? - is0lati0n - Left for another clan in Fall. Currently with Asylum clan - 7953azen - Still here - atomicgunz - Moved and quit WR in January - throwitup - Quit clan in the end of August - stealthmut - Quit WR in end of summer - iaperson2 - Quit. I don't remember when - holygunz - Was rarely on. I kicked him after 2 month of inactivity. Still plays. - xorgix - Still here The following people joined in the week after: - nub4lyfe - Quit in Fall. Rejoined end of Fall. Quit Early 2008. - traceking - Got HW banned in Fall. Tried coming back, but kept getting banned. - toinktoink - Quit in the end of summer. - downnout - Still here As I was browsing old screenshots, also saw the following people in their very early levels: - katycute - still here (possibly quit a month ago) - kibaspirit - still here (possibly quit a month ago) - grimloks1 (aka v3t3ran99) - still here - madstalin - still here, although quitting - superman - still here, although quitting - krazypaul - still here, currently can't play - halonouran - just joined (I have a screenshot w/ him from June 11th... hehe) You know, it's very sad to know that I have the oldest clan in West... It's also sad that I'm he longest clan-leading member in West... I saw "In West" because I don't know about other servers... maybe it's not just west. If I quit and HC gets disbanded, RD will be the oldest clan. Lol?+ + + Mar 12 + + +
So Deadman10 is off the roster... Most of you wanted him out, and he's not been in in AGES. So, he's out. We have two new members: halonauran and blastamang. Treat them well. It really sucks that I need to schedule all our scrims. Don't hesitate to ask on xfire if you want to scrim. It shall be granted. Also.. we're officially off Top 500, and we're 125th out of 128 US-All Clans, so that means we couldn't do much worse, so I really see no reason in not scrimming a good clan. Note: I said "good" clan, not "laggy" clan or some other bunch of idiots with perfect score who claim to be on "bad computers" so they lag as bad when it comes to grannies trying to send e-mails out. mexx-something-something had 300 ping... atomicgunz had that with dial-up... Also, we say Bye to atomicgunz, as he's unable to get fast internet in his new house (?). He will still be a cat, even thought he won't die (and kill) with us. P.S. Sorry for not updating the website, kdrs and other stuff. It takes ALOT of time. I just spent two hours updating stuff, when I could've been playing or doing my homework (which I have lots of).+ + + Feb 20 + + +
Yes. We're so popular and elite now that we're getting spammers who're dumb enough to use their actual names. So, I posted the IP of krazykr3am if you guys have some kind of tools you need to try out. xstunnerx isn't even worth my time. They're both 13, and about as dumb as they get. This is my response to them: Took me writing 2 (two) lines to clean up after you, and then about 5 (five) to secure the guestbook from any further abuse. Took me about 7 (seven) minutes. In other news: two new UO maps! More places to catch nubs. Also, clan chat is here! Now there's (almost) no need for xfire. Except warrock doesn't track how much time you spend playing, so x-fire is still a requirement for every Hell Cat. Lastly: I put the 'add message' field on top of the catbook. It's about time. I've been meaning to do this for the past few months. Hehe.+ + + Feb 17 + + +
Wow, we had a lot of scrims today! Some good, some bad. My girlfriend got pissed that I played so much, so don't be surprised if I don't do that again for a while. I'm still accepting scrim challenges whenever I'm online though. I updated the KDRs and also included real (ingame) KDRs on the roster. It's just for show and yada-yada. Some links got removed from "useful" section as clans keep getting disbanded. We scrimmed Perverts yesterday and today they're disbanded. We had our big scrim last night. Sorry for rescheduling it for an hour earlier. I ended up looking for ringers. Is0lati0n ended up watching me die, then coming up to the guy who killed me and throwing him a medic box. No comments necessary. Has anyone seen 5aint5snipe, or kibaspirit? We have kill3msoft now... and we only need one really good sniper. On that note: kill3m is the only one who has his Scrim KDR > Game KDR. Wow? :)+ + + Feb 16 + + +
Well, I haven't been posting, because of school and yada-yada. Things are going slow. I purchased another retail, which I'm going to envoke once KifArt becomes an asterisk (lvl 48). Attention, we have a scrim tomorrow (Sunday @ 9PM). We need 10 people. Yes, 10. Please let me know ahead of time if you can make it. If it so happens that we need more people, I'll have no choise but to recruit some nubs for that game. I don't want that. That being beside us losing another scrim. It's just that the whole idea of having a 10 VS 10 on Nerbil makes me SO EXCITED! In other news, whatever EvoX says.. we did not hack chokotto's account. Lol. We're so popular people need to start rumors about us. Also, we're being visited by ghosts of the past: is0, iap2, bkilla, domi2, town, kr3am and etc... :) Most of them tend to say the same thing: we suck... I finally had another good day today: 17-0, 34-8, 20-4 and etc. He-he. It looks like Jack dropped out of the clan :( Reason: krazypaul got in somehow. Grr... I specifically removed krazypaul till he's lvl 16 to uphold the standards. Now look what happened... Well, I hope this can be straightened out. Also, I'm making 1 (one) exception to lvl 26 (16 for 2nd accnts) rule. n0obkilla may re-join us at lvl 11. Why 11? because he's not premium, and can't level as fast as the rest of us. I also think that making someone wait MORE than a month to re-enter the clan is cruel. I might be mean, but I'm not cruel. On a personal note: I noticed that restarting computer before playing warrock gets rid of my gun lab which seemed to have been holding me back. Or maybe it's because I've finally configured QoS on my router properly. Last note: Anyone upset that our rank is so low?? Seeing how we're not scrimming and other clans are entering the arena, our rank's fallen down to 481. It's falling at a rate of about ~20 a day. We need to scrim.+ + + Feb 9 + + +
I've got good and bad news. Good news: we've finally had an official scrim. Bad news: We lost that one, and the one after it. So now our 'official' scrim record is 0-2, which gives a 171 World Rank! Need a couple of wins I guess and we can get to top 100 (LOL?). Well, nevertheless it was fun, and thanks to all who tried to hard to bring us those wins (but failed). Well, since our scrim record is ruined, no point in not scrimming anymore, I guess? So, We'll officially scrim any clan that is not in top 100. :) Also, I know the image-upload has been working badly for some of you. I'm trying to look into it, but it seems it's just that the server that's hosting us is kind of crappy (without the kind-of), and it will only work for some of us. The rest of you might have to upload it to photobucket or tinypic and post the link.+ + + Feb 5 + + +
So krazykr3am is gone. Good. Having him was an embarassment. He quit after a couple weeks after begging me to get in for more than a month. @krazykr3am, the only thing that fell apart was our respect for you. Plus, he gave me an ultimatim: I make him lieutenant or he leaves. psgk1ll4h and firetiger1 have retired from WarRock. Best wishes to them. jmac46 and skaarj are also gone. Same wishes to them. Our clan size has gone down to 24 people. That means there are now spaces in clan, so if you know a prospective player, give him my xfire. With all the people leaving, clan count is growing smaller, but our scrim kdr is ~1.1 now. WOW. Our average level is > 29 (w00t). After jmac left though, average age declined by a whole, and is now just slightly above 19 years. In case you guys haven't heard, Ang3l and GSTR fell apart. One of (newly acclaimed) best clans in WR resides in WEST_CA. They're called DmF. I asked what it stands for, but they don't seem to know. So far, they're down for unofficial scrims, which makes them our toughest apponent currently. As far as UO games go, there is no need to make a UO division. I play UO games with you guys all the time. I think it's self-explanatory that HC has spread to UO. I'm still getting used to proning again though. In Global news: colonel59 (http://ops.warrock.net/showprofile.aspx?p=78477) is fast-approaching 100 KDR. All he needs is 500 kills with only 2 deaths. 5aint5nipe brought up a good point last night. I've been leader of Hell Catz since July. Yes, I've been leading this clan for 7 (seven) months. I don't know of any other clan leaders that have been doing that for as long. Correct me if I'm wrong. Even in terms of clans, the only older clan I can think of is h4x, which has been through 4 (four) leaders in the time of HC.+ + + Jan 29 + + +
Finally the clan roster is settling down. We're at 31 players right now and I do not expect that number to change dramatically. I've closed our clan from official recruitment and official scrimming. Recruitment is closed because even though I said LVL 26 min, we got ~50 requests from lvl 1 - 10. And CT sytem is so buggy right now, that using it is a torture! So, official scrimming is closed off, at least until they remove the 2 hour wait. I want to note that players seem to come in pairs (me and xorg, jmac and skaarj, and etc). Well, as you might now, r0b was kicked from clan for cursing, and when j03l found out, he quit, as well. Just in case you were wondering what happened to them. In other news, cubanmob disbanded his clan. Well, good, because it was getting rotten at the core. Most of them joined Ang3l. Grr...s In other WR gossip you have, I'll post it here. ;)+ + + Jan 25 + + +
Well, a few more people left. And I wish the best to them. I just want to make one remark: I am glad that you are gone. Not all of you, but generally, you were the ones causing Hell Catz damage with your complaining about lag, about how we lose scrims, about how low your rank is (guess why?) and etc and etc. Most of all, none of you were always nice, and rules aren't there to be followed sometimes. The "nice" rule is set in stone, and so I'm glad you guys are gone as I am not mean enough to just kick you. As for those of you who choose to try to talk back and say mean things about Hell Catz: Like I said, this isn't the first time a bunch of kids leave and definately not the last. In the other news: WE GOT A NEW VENT SERVER! The information is posted in the announcement. Twenty Five (25) slots this time, enough for everyone! :) The lobby is to be sitting there idlely, so feel free to join. In other news: We had our first Ranked Scrim today.. through the tournament system. There were only two problems: The other team had 5 players, and I could only add 4; I had to agree to it, so no scrims without me (that's BS); The system wouldn't let me add some of the players (K2 Can't write websites if their depend on it); The system went offline ten minutes before the scrim, so I couldn't even add people to it, so rokroller had to face Team Girl on this own. He did 20-7. W00t. Go Rok. Now I can answer a question from long-time ago. How many kittens surived from that winter litter? - 4 (Scaarj, Jmac46, Sousuke89, vietbl00d). Congratulations. Also, as (I believe) the troubled people are finally gone, we can open the next season. As such, HC is recruiting again. Please note minumum requirements are that the player is somewhere around our average: LVL 29, KDR 1.37+ + + Jan 24 + + +
How dare some of you say that I don't do enough for the clan. This is my third sleepless night in my first week of school, and what's keeping me up? This stupid clan management. All the things you're saying are harsh, but I've been governing this clan for over six (6) months now, so I've learned a thing or two about how to deal with situations like this one. So, here's the result. We're now down to 30 people! Woo-hoo! But, I'm not done. I've reset the voting system, so now you can vote again, on who you like and who you don't. Please don't put all "Y" or all "N".. I put 25 Likes and 5 Don'ts.. Some of you are annoying little kids, and I don't like you. But, this is a clan full of nice people, and if you're nice, I like you enough to play with you, and if I like playing with you, you're worth keeping in the clan. Also, like I promised, I will be kicking people on Feb 1st. So, please vote away, as I still need to weed out any people who might stir things up again. I want us clean and friendly to be ready for the next recruitment season! I've also synchronized OPS.WARROCK, HELLCATZ.NET and XFIRE CLAN. I'm not sure what I will do with three things to post announcements on... I might open xfire announcements to everyone and let you guys post stuff there, but I like the catbook.... mostly because I wrote it. Oh... P.S. Read the announcement.+ + + Jan 23 + + +
Grr.... So I'm mad at K2 and I'm mad at a bunch of other people. If you see former HCs.. tell them all that I hate them, and you should hate them too. Haha. Anyway, so now apparently as soon as I stop paying K2 I will lose leadership position. I don't like that. So don't be surprised if clan doesn't survive past March. On the good note, now that the tournament system is out, I know all your KDRs, and guess what? Our average KDR is 1.33. Also, now I can synchronize the real clan roster with the roster on the website without any trouble. We won some scrims today, Yay! Also, no need to look for clan avatars anymore. I can just pull them off the tournament page. About k1ng: Whatever is really going on... he is quitting WR, and I will not speak ill of the passing, so I'm just posting that we believe that whatever the outcome, his intentions were good and he really wanted to make us better. Lets hope we learn from mistakes that were made and leave this situation with a good feeling. A sad personal statement: Due to recent greediness of K2, as you know I'm forced to pay every month to keep the clan going. Sadly, this isn't as much fun anymore as it used to be, so as much as I would like to have hundreds of people in the clan who just once had a good game or made a funny joke, I simply can't do it anymore. I'm sorry if this turns your opinion of me for some of you, but I am only willing to keep in clan people who are willing to contribute back to the clan. Be so visits to the webpage, competing in scrims, discussing whatever in the catbook or simply playing the game in a nice manner, it all to the goodness and overall achievement of our clan. People who join for reasons unrelated and goald unrelated to ours, will be kicked. So, If I have to buy premium every month to stay leader, the least you can do is play the game, if not, you will be kicked out. As usual, if you're reading this, this probably meand you're not one the people I'm talking about.+ + + Jan 22 + + +
So k1ng apparently sided with Ang3l today... What can be more offensive than trying to get us all banned... Anyhow, I'm yet to hear from him. Can someone give me an estimate of how many accounts got banned? No one gave me feedback or even asked how the scoring system is based. It was adjusted today, so for the most part scores dropped. Someone needs to tell me whether scores should have a finite or an infinite value? Right now, a perfect voting scores gives you 300 points... and the only thing taking away from that is how long you've been absent... Eum, if all goes well, next serious kicking is scheduled Feb 1st. If you're reading this, you probably have nothing to worry about. I have an assignment for you all: I want someone to make a list of other WEST_CA clans, especially the ones we've scrimmed. I want the following on them: their Avatar (take it out of the screenshots, or send the whole thing if you don't know how to use paint), their Abbreviated Name (example: HCFS) and ther full name (example: Hell Catz). I want to make the scrims page look prettier, but I think it will be faster if we worked on it together. Frankly, I can't tell the difference between Mexican Special Forces and Mexican Comandos... Lastly, if ANYONE approaches you asking to join. Our minimum level requirement is lvl 25, and KDR requirement is 1.30. Anything less than that, tell them to look for another clan.+ + + Jan 20 + + +
Addition (A couple hours later):
The server seems to getting hacked into or just failing, but if you see a
bunch of red lines saying something like:
"Error: Access denied for user 'xxxxxxxx'@'xx.xxx.xxx.xx' (using password: NO)"
Don't panic. It just means the world is ending, and you should've watched
Cloverfield to know how to deal with it or something (haven't seen the
movie so unsure if that made me read dumb).
Anyhow, I just thought I'd try to make some of you smile:
Leaders of HC and GSTR off the leash!
Don't want to sound stupid, but I'll say it anyway. If k1ng's been buying people
premium, and his credit card company sees many entries for "K2 Network", they
will probably hold those payments, which will result in completed transactions,
and then K2 doesn't the money and all your accounts become suspended. Just a
theory worth looking into.
Grrr... K2 made me buy premium.... Grrr...
Krazypaul isn't hosting the backup ventrilo server anymore. I understand. I hope
donimateu2 will still be on once in a while so we could use his server.
As far as what's been happening, or if you have some concerns, before I let the
clan run wild for some time while I transition back into school mode, you all
have my email (it's kifart at hellcatz dot net). Send screenshots of scrims
or w/e else there, too.
Also, last warning. Please keep all financial talk on xfire, ventrilo and other
private places where people can't google that you're nice/generous/stupid.
Last, but not least:
http://forum.warrock.net/index.php?showtopic=97040
Read that post... or in short: clan system is finally going to come out and
no hacks will be tolerated, clans should be ~12 people in size, and there
shouldn't be any "iffy" people on the roster. So, I'm basically saying
that whatever you have going on, you have until the release of the tournament
system to clear it up and get good at what you do (that applies to you people
that keep find the need to register a new account). It also talked a lot about
keeping track of scrims for us (finally!) and banning clans for having hackers
in them (I wonder if scrims with hacking clans will be nullified, or will they
make another stupid programming mistake where hacking clans will just mess up
everyone's scores).
P.S. Because of tournament system coming out, only good players will be allowed
to enter HC. So, no more acceptance of people who're lower than our average
level (~26 right now) or have lower than leader's KDR (~1.31 right now). Again,
exceptions will be made for exceptional people, but don't think that you will
be one of them.

A few people were kicked from HC today: - killer1849 (Possible scammer + no one liked him) - popsicle (who is this guy/girl?) - blake0017 - meatwade (gone for a long time) - orionova (gone for a long time) - v3t3ran99 (gone for a long time) Some others will follow soon. Also, I will raise ranks some time next week. I'm hoping to judge by the score, but I still want to make a few adjustments to the formula. Help will be appreciated (like what you think is important).+ + + Jan 15 + + +
Hello Clan. So, as my break is coming to an end, so apparently is my sanity. I'm becoming crazy, and I really can't wait for the time to come when I'll have other things to do beside warrock (which should be in about 8 hours, girlfriend is coming back). So, as a last proof of my nerdiness and complete trust into formulas and stuff I made a scoring system. You can see the scores in the roster. If you can't, then you're not a Hell Cat and you can only guess who's doing well and who's not. Scores aren't really important, but eventually I will be basing ranks on them. Right now they're only important if your score is negative, which means I will be kicking you from the clan (all those nice people, that just don't play much, I'm really sorry, but I like order. Here are a few things you should know about the formula. Everything counts, including (but not limited to), kills, deaths, kdr, how often you visit the website, how long have you been gone, how much other people like you and etc. I tried as hard as I could to curve the formula to make my own score go down, but it seems I'm the one that's most obsessed with Hell Catz and Dominateu2 told me that's how it's supposed to be (go figure). I also like that TwinWeapon came up second highest, which is why he's the chairman. If some of those scores are unjust or unreasonable, or if you simply think that letting computers decide who gets to stay and who leaves is unethical, please tell me. On the last note, know that your opinion of each other counts a lot toward your score, so please update your votes on other members once every month or so. I've placed the link next to the user control panel, because I couldn't think of a better place to put it.+ + + Jan 13 + + +
So, I'm a little mad as a webmaster, as just now I found out that hellcatz.net doesn't display properly in Internet Explorer. Personally, I'd uninstall that thing from all computer in the world, as it is the root of all evil (or at least 99% of the viruses you get is from you having Internet Explorer). Anyhow, I patched it up a little bit. I don't understand why no one told me about it. No one uses IE7? You all think I couldn't make it better (or intended it to look crappy)? Bleh, doesn't matter. We beat MSF today. Yay. The screenshots showed that none of their players that usually hack were present at the scrim, so I assume that it was a legitimate scrim. Sorry everyone, but it seems I can't be everywhere at once, and I really didn't want to to do this, but I thought it would be fair. I wanted to get your input on who's active in clan and who's not to aid me in kicking people out. I thought about it for a long time, and came to a conclusion that the optimal thing for us (so that I don't have to talk to everyone 1 on 1) would be to make a voting system. Basically, look on top under 'Announcements' and tell me what you think.+ + + Jan 10 + + +
If you're going to quit WarRock, right now is the time! There are a couple of reasons. For one, there is no more proning in CQC, which means no more snipers from UO will come to CQC to do anything. Also, K2 has demonstrated that not only premiums can buy better guns (mp7a) but you have to pay for them with real money (l85a1) so you don't feel like dishing out $$$ for playing games, this is the end of the line for you as you will not go any further and will never get better guns. Lastly, I spent the night trying to estimate the horrors of reaching level 99. There was a thred in the forums that tried computing it, but it seems I had to do it myself. Anyhow, the grim news are here, in my post: My post on how much experience it takes to get to lvl 99. If those numbers mean nothing to you, consider this: you earn from 500-1000xp per game on average. So it's going to take you around 35 thausand games... If that's not terrifying, I'm lvl 43 (almost 44) with 1.7 million exp, and it took me 9 months to get here playing ~20 hours a week. Even if I keep this up (and I'm not saying I will) it's going to take me some 12 (twelve) years!!! To compare, a life of an average game is only ~3 years. Draw your own conclusions. (maybe I'm just in a bad mood?)+ + + Jan 9 + + +
OK! Some Hell Catz are getting me mad. I understand that games are all meant to be fun and enjoyment. I get that some of you think it's funny to glitch, or show-off and stuff. Well, as fun as it might be it's a one-way ticket out of the clan. I know some of you aren't at a point in your life where you can take a video game seriously (sigh, try making one. That'll teach ya). But, I'm taking this clan very seriously (because I invested a lot into it) and when you guys lose your cool and start being selfish you hurt the reputation of the entire clan, and embarass yourselves. As you might have noticed, I've been pretty lenient on the rules and let you slide w/ warnings and other things. What's not surprising, is that it's always the same people breaking clan rules. So, I didn't want to be, but I will have to be strict about this. No more warnings. If I catch you, or if someone reports to me that you broke ANY of the clan rules (cursing, showing off, glitching and etc.) you will be kicked immediately without a chance to make up for it. If you need to let off some steam, go punch a pillow, or play a different game, or get on a nub account that cannot be traced back to your main account, or go to USA_VS_EU, just stop making us all look bad for having you. Some tips for you: - Type in /blist_add [nickname] to block ALL people that say something mean to you. Trust me, it will save you a lot of nerves. Blocking clan members is not against the rules. - Any and all offenses to our clan, direct them at me. I don't mean tell me that this guy said that or this... Tell them to take it up w/ me, and leave you alone. Also, another point I want to STRESS: Please stop kicking people out of our rooms for no reason. Also, start kicking people who offend the clan or someone in the clan. If someone wants to get into the HC room, tell them to wait. Kicking people just to let someone else in isn't being nice. Not mentioning that a lot of the times it doesn't work (someone else comes in and then you have to kick him, or it's too late into the game and you kicked a person for nothing). Lastly, I want to tell everyone about my kicking policy, which luckily I don't have to use often. If there is a dispute among two members, and they're both recently joined, both will be kicked out of the clan if they cannot resolve the issue. In other cases, preference will be given to the person who's been in the clan the longest, as it preserves the clan as it was. P.S. We now have a "lady" in the clan - katycute. She's gonna stay w/ us for about a month. Make her feel welcome.+ + + Jan 8 + + +
A couple of grim news: - thecodeman quit HC today. - RD appears to have hackers and cheaters in it, and they're not denying it. A note on vocabulary, as noted by someone on forums, we should call those losers with hacks 'cheaters' as 'hackers' implies they can actually hack, when most of them are just newbies who know about google.com+ + + Jan 4 + + +
isucktoyou was kicked for hacking We had our first scrim with ventrilo today. We still lost. :) It was fun though. I've become bad at taking screenshots... if you have screenshots of recent scrims, please send those to me :(+ + + Jan 3 + + +
Mass quittings (Yay?) So the following left the clan: - crazyninja - paci89 - mvandybmx - k1ngmaster (might come back). - xhypn0tyk sgtphantom won't be kicked.. tell him to stop worrying.+ + + Jan 2 (again) + + +
I posted dominateu2's ventrilo information. Need to get people on there so we could see if it's usable. :) Also, I changed the number of messages in catbook from 35 to 55, because we go through 35 messages in only a few days, so if I go away for a week, I might miss some, and I don't want to! Sorry, I can't store all messages, as the space on database is limited. Eum, I read the famas4lif3 quit. I'm tired of all those sucky players quitting, thinking they were ever an asset. Well, so I kicked the rest of them. People removed from clan: - dro0py - quit... what a jerk. - famas4lif3 - quit, what a jerk, yet another. - amirownedu - never made contact - b33n3r - weird guy, didn't register - x1dodger1x - not active - sacerdoom - didn't make contact - ic3bl1tz - not active - pacer2 - didn't make contact - twisted55 - didn't make contact People that are going to be deleted if I don't find out new things: - sgtphantom - not active - wheelman11 - not active - abolish - not active - orionova - not active - xhypn0tykx - not on roster anymore... what gives? - blake0017 - not making contact If you think someone else should be removed from clan, please e-mail to kick at hellcatz dot net. Please state the reason for you opinion.+ + + Jan 2 + + +
Roster page updated a little. P.S. Crazyninja quit official WR roster cause the cat brought him trouble, but he's still on our hellcatz roster.. any thoughts, ideas? P.S. #2 Everyone on our official roster, but not on HC roster here will be deleted within 24 hours... if you see someone you think should be on it, or want them there, get them to register on our website ASAP.. or bye-bye... and there's no coming back.+ + + Jan 1 + + +
We have a lot new players, again. I decided to add whoever was decent as a New Years present. They're just on trial period, of course. One of them is a girl. Yay, finally we have one again. !~^) Me (KifArt), I'm going to Santa Barbara with xorgix and another friend. We will still be back today, after we sober up. Everyone, have fun as well! I also updated the x-fire clan list (link above). Did you know that veterans+ can post news and plan events (Like when you want to scrim and such?) I'll try to keep it in synch with the actual roster. :)+ + + Dec 27 + + +
Hey everyone. I added a lot of people in the last couple of days. Still haven't heard if anyone thinkgs it's a good thing or not.. Maybe cause none of the usuals are on a lot. After winter vacation I'm sure a lot will quit, or get kicked, so the size will narrow down again. I wanted to clear up some rumors about immortalus. I didn't kick him. He broke the rules and atomic kicked him. I offered immortalus a return, but he said that he doesn't want to. It was his decision, not ours... so stop saying things like "you shouldn't have kicked him kif"... A quick note about scrims. I don't want to make scrim rules, but I'm slowly getting annoyed of people from East Coast or other weird states (Hawaii, Alaska) or even Canada getting kills because they lag and assuming that they have more skill for some reason. Well, new scrim rule: HC does not scrim laggers. If no one knows, DMZ and RD have been on my case for a while now... well, they crashed our room today.. we won, I did 26-9... on bloc (derb) against a team of high-level laggers. No comments necessary.+ + + Dec 25 + + +
Merry Christmas Hell Catz! Meow! So the servers went out 1am on Christmas day.. Happy, isn't it? I have bad news for you as well (well, for some maybe)... I wrote a scrim that checks how many hours you've been playing warrock. All it does is check your x-fire profile, of course, but still, now I have an easy way to see how much you've been playing. Not for all, but for some it will be a factor in whether they will be getting kicked out or not. Hehe... So, it's VERY IMPORTANT that you have your right x-fire username entered here at on hellcatz.net. (Lol.. I'm so strict, it even makes me sick of myself..). So unless I see you in game, or I get scrim screenshots with your name on them, you're in trouble. P.S. Those who choose to hide their profile (cough, nub) are not excused. :) In other news, we had our first 8v8 scrim today! Guess what? We Won! Thank you very much to all those who participated. We've been getting tons of new players (and even more people asking to join), so I will only post that they're in the clan once they pass their trial period. Funny Note: I added jmac46 to clan (wonder if he'll stick around...), and it brought up average age and level by a whole point. :)+ + + Dec 23 + + +
Requirements to join HC have been updated. All recruiters, please read! Minimum lvl required to join HC is 16 (sixteen)! Most of the new players that have been added have bad KDRs, and they're not that good. They will be kicked. immortalus has been kicked from HC for breaking of rule #1 and doing offense #3. Other kicks will begin Jan 2nd.+ + + Dec 22 + + +
This is sad. The servers are STILL DOWN! I've completed doing I intended to, and I'm not going to wait for them to come back up, so as of now, I declare the hellcatz.net website functional. So here's what's new: You can not register and login. You can change your level and xfire and stuff. If I upgrade you to a clan member, you get to appear on a roster and you can upload screenshots, which you can upload up to three (3). Also, you need to be registered and logged in in order to write in the CatBook. Now, I keep track of how many times you've visited, when was your last visit, and how many posts you've made. P.S. #1 Image upload and level-change are in User Control Panel (link above). P.S. #2 leader was kicked out for inactivity. P.S. #3 The value of this website increased by $250.+ + + Dec 20 + + +
The servers are still down. I'm hooked up a backup I used the last time the database went down, so I could still work on it. So, we're up to 6 scrims that are unaccounted for. THAT'S NOT COOL! If you're in a scrim, I expect all of you to take screenshots of end scores, and then choose which one will send them in. Screenshots are extremely important. They prove me and others that you're not BSing and provides valuable kills and deaths for the statistics. Start owning up to what you do! On the site maintenance side: The database servers are down, so the catbook and registration are out of comission. I'm under the impression they're actually working to fix the problem, so everything should be working by the end of the day. Sorry for the inconveniece.+ + + Dec 18 + + +
This morning p3rsi4an012 and xall4hx were hacking (persian and allah.. oh COMMON!) in the same room as immortalus and crazyninja. Both of them got banned. Immortalus and crazy told me that Korgoth told them to leave clan or they will be banned, so they left. I re-invited them. After that, I wrote an angry letter to Korgoth telling him that he's overstepping his authority, telling my clanmen to quit Hell Catz. His reply basically stated that he never said such a thing, and that he said that if more Hell Catz will get banned, clan will be disbanded. He also said that p3rsi4an021 and xall4hx were using no-spread, no-recoil and stamina hacks, and they openly talked about it in their wisper. He also said that crazyninja and immortalus seemed to know about what was going on. Results of this: crazyninja and immortalus are still in clan, persian was kicked out, and we have been officially warned that if they find more hackers in HC, the clan will be deleted. In other news: I'm working on a new system where you will be able to update your own levels and other personal info (age, xfire and etc, in case it changes). You will also be able to post from your name, w/o worrying that some idiot will spam the catbook under your name. You can register by making a CLICK HERE 2 REGISTER. It's still in beta, but I probably won't make roster depend on the data until most of you register (which you all should probably do soon!). Also, now that I have time, I'm open to suggestions to how I can help you, or can improve the website, or anything else you want me to do. Lol, as a very minor improvement to the website, I fixed the catbook, so it also validates under w3c standards. I'm probably the only one who cares... P.S. For registraion, make sure to use a DIFFERENT login and password from your warrock login and password. I'm not storing the passwords, but I really don't want some hacker hacking our database and then trying to brute-force your passwords on warrock.+ + + Dec 17 + + +
A couple of quick things: + We have a new player x1dodger1x. + Nub4lyfe got a curse on him (wow) and now he's laggy4lyfe. + leader will be kicked if no one tells me they've seen him. + pkerkid and ic3b1itz are next to go. + Who the hell are xslayer7x and sacerdoom? (No really?) + Anyone tried using HyperCam to record WarRock? Did you get a 15-min PB Ban?+ + + Dec 13 + + +
We beat Reservoir Dogs! Yeah! Finally! We have our revenge for that defeat on August 2nd! It was a close one, but we did it. w00t! We have two new players: crazyninja (mercenary) and wheelman11 (anyone know him?) Funny how one of them is highest lvl and the other is almost lowest? As for me (KifArt), I'm finally a triple diamond, and I'm gonna take a break from WarRock for a while. I have finals starting this Saturday and ending on Tuesday and I should be studying. If you see me playing warrock, tell me to go study plz! P.S. Thanks atomic... why was is0 under your account? Another victim you're dragging down next time you get accused of hacking? :) Building up that perfect excuse of playing on a public computer.. j/k.+ + + Dec 12 + + +
Yo, I posted the statistics for all the scrims we've had! Well, all the ones I had screenshots of. Some of them are incomplete, and some of them were taken in the middle of the game, so some people got in values like "2-0" and such. It's in the scrims section, so ALL CHECK IT OUT. :)+ + + Dec 10 + + +
Atomic is in HC again. axelangelx is out. No, really, I asked him like a million times if he wants to stay and stuff. I even made the xfire account for him, because he couldn't get on the list himself (oh common, really?). Because of that, I'm going to enforce the age limit on new recruits to best of my abilities. So, if someone's 25 but they're acting like they're 13, too bad. P.S. New rule: all Hell Catz are forbidden to play on their HC accounts while you're on your periods! I don't want your estrogen messing up our reputation. If you must misbehave, do it on another account, or a different server. Do not let us catch you disposing of your tampax.+ + + Dec 8 + + +
You might have noticed that our avatars are gone! :( It is temporary and we don't know when they will be back. I hope, soon. In other news, anyone who's not on xfire list (cough, axelangelx) will be kicked. I'm not kidding. Also, for future recruitments, I will enforce the age requirement. @AxelAngelX, I made you an xfire, axelangelxx, ask me for a password... I also updated the "join" section. Only axelangelx is required to look at it...+ + + Dec 7 + + +
So I guess atomicgunz did quit. I can guess the reason, but the decision is still up to him and my policy is "no questions asked". In other news, the XVelruf map is nice. I updated the levels. Just two newbies dragging us below lvl 16 now, we'll see how they fair. In personal news: I've set a goal to up my KDR to 1.30 (from 1.26) which going at 1.8 KDR from now on will get me where I want in about 2000 kills. So don't be surprised if I'm on Nerbil, sniping off nubs w/ m24 :) You're all welcome to join me. Last note: Each player is no limited to 2 screenshots (the only reason why there is a limit right now is because I'm lazy, anyway).+ + + Dec 6 + + +
New patch today. I don't know what it will bring. I downloaded the update that's 36mb in size, and my WR freezes. I can't even try to login. It responds for a second once every forever... In the mean time, we have good news. Dima15 is back. He's been banned for no reason, but K2 restored him with apologies. Hehe... Also, I wanted to give all of you a warning not to give out your passwords, not even to me, AND not to take any passwords and try to login with them. Reason: I actually know most of your logins (don't ask me how...). Second, if you know a login of a person and they give you their password, and you logon, you put yourself in grave danger, as if someone hacks on their account, they could link it to yours because of hardware IDs or IPs, and you'll be banned as well. And they're the ones who will get unbanned saying that you have hacked them and used hacks on their account. so please be careful.+ + + Dec 3 + + +
Great job today Catz! Meow! We won two scrims against formidable opponents. Thank you all those who participated (which was a lot of you). pkerkid and ic3b1itz, try not to be kids in the future? Serious disputes amongst clanmembers will results in your termination (virtually). Unless atomicgunz is going crazy, someone's kicked him from the clan... Any clues on who that might be? The only two people who could've done it are me and twinweapon. Twin wasn't on, and I'dn't pretend that I didn't. Atomic, you're re-invited (for like 3rd time?)... So far my guess is that it's a bug. Status: Pending further investigation.+ + + Dec 2 + + +
We won another scrim. Go Hell Catz! There have been multiple sightings of random people having our avatars. It's a bug as far as I know, and it will be fixed with next patch. I just wanted to make a couple of clarifications: + In game, you do not need to tell me why you're sucking. + If you're in a game, and someone from clan tells you to come to rm xx, finish the game first, then go.+ + + Dec 1 + + +
Good game today. We hit a record high of 12 Hell Catz in one CQC room. :)
Just as a reminder, Saturday is still official HC-play-together day.
Eum, I felt like the clan is headed in a somewhat wrong direction, of being
a B-Class clan, and I didn't like that feeling. So, here's a list of people
removed from clan for inactivity:
vacaville,
killerogue,
xsaosinx,
kylekr3 (actually he's banned by K2, looked for hacks),
holygunz (always on, never plays w/ us),
smiley04 (never got around to getting xfire...),
cookinator (low levels always quit, always),
auden22 (never made contact)
Also, I moved some ranks around, so here's what your ranks mean for now:
leader - decides what course the clan takes in it's development.
chairman - actually cares about well being of a clan. Acts as leader if
the leader is away for 7+ days w/o notice.
leiutenant - solid player, with a long history in clan who's contributed to HCs.
veteran - either a good player, but only recently added,
or a good player that's away for extended periods of time,
or just someone who shouldn't have the permissions to add/remove ppl.
rookie - someone who's in danger of being deleted from clan.
if you're a rookie and you're not on trial period, you're doing
something wrong.
Since there are only a few rookies, I wanted to let you guys know why you are
on that list:
* immortalus: you said you're on at least a few hours a week. I haven't seen
you on in ages. I do check ur x-fire profile once in a while, and I know you're
on, but in last month I only saw you play once, and only for a couple games. :(
* 7953azen: You've been gone for a very long time. If you show yourself active,
you will probably be chairman again, but right now, it seems like you've quit,
and I don't want to start saying "why is azen chairman? I've never seen him."
* leader: I know you had some problems, but you've been away for quite some
time now, and you don't have x-fire, so I can't check whether you're on or not.
I hope I see you soon.
* axelangelx: I've never kicked anyone for not being a bad player. Improve your
game a little bit. Plus, you do talk too much. Historically it's been a bad thing
and has caused a lot of problems. Just fyi. Also, you have got to get on xfire
list, I gave you 10 days, remember? It's been 16...
* abolish: You play, and that's great. I just don't see much of you. This is just
a way for me to say that I do notice your absences. Also, you lag, always. It
would be nice to see you on a free connection.
* pkerkid: It's nice of you to give away your old account, because u got this
one. But, you are new to clan, and you do break the be-nice rule a lot. That's
not good. Plus, minimum level for HC is 11 (which I hope to bring up to 16, so
that everyone can have a famas if needed), but since you have it as retail (and
yes, I am jealous) lvl 11 is fine.
Questions or concerns --> CatBook.
P.S. To all those who've been kicked, since you didn't quit, I will still take
you back provided a good reason. No one is perfect.
P.S.2 We have a new player, put on trial period ic3b1itz.
P.S.3 dima15 quit warrock, nub4lyfe is back for w/e reason (who added him????).
+ + + Nov 27 + + +
So a couple of news. nub4lyfe is apparently back in HC. Who invited him? I heard a rumor that downnout is leaving clan to be a chairman in another clan (something better than HC?, or are they holding your wife captive?) KifArt got a new monitor and mouse. No more green. New screen posted. By estimates, new recruitment season will start in two weeks. Roster will be cleaned before that. Also, there seems to be a bug where people who're no in clan have our avatars, and people in HC don't show them (like xorgix). If you spot anything unusual, take a screen so we could make a ticket. Thanks.+ + + Nov 19 + + +
v3t3ran99 is back into clan. Well, good to be wrong. People, PLEASE do not give your passwords other ppl... Compromised accounts will be deleted from clan. Atomicgunz was banned. :( Any progress to that? He will be playing under edelbrock for now. Dima15, mVandyBMX, Orionova and KyleKR3 finally got onto xfire list. We have a new player, meatwade. Try him out... Oh, and who the hell is auden22? He's on the roster... did someone add him, or is it another alias for one of the lieutenants+?+ + + Nov 17 + + +
Great playing this saturday! There were at least 5 HCs on at all times with few exceptions. No scrims though (saving it for later?). v3t3ran99 was kicked from clan. snarelad25 was kicked from clan. anvikwiz will be re-invited if he manages to get onto xfire-clan list. Note to recruiters: Recruitment is closed, but if you see fit to add someone to our clan (best friend, ur dog, or w/e), make sure they have xfire, and get them to get onto xfire clan list BEFORE inviting them to clan officially. Thank you. In other news, the following people will be deleted within next two weeks if they don't show any activity: killerogue, cookinator, dima15, vacaville, xsaosinx and holygunz(yes, him, too). Also, if someone sees smiley04 get his xfire. BTW. el1tegunna left a couple days ago and joined some other weird clan.+ + + Nov 14 + + +
anvikwiz was kicked from the clan for being a "corky" person and swearing. I've never even seen him, so no loss there? Also, screenshots were posted. Sorry it took so long. Again, if you have one, mail to screenshots at hellcatz. Roster updated. Levels are still outdated though :( One more thing: xfire clan (xfire.com/clans/hcfs) now has news and forums, so go check them out. I'm not sure who has permissions to do what, but check it out, tell me what you think. I like the site better though...+ + + Nov 11 + + +
So apparently xspyrox quit. Good for him. Comment on that: If you plan on never being on xfire, never playing with clan and then quitting because clan is inactive, DO NOT JOIN IN THE FIRST PLACE. We have a new player, bullzeye1. NOTE TO EVERYONE: if there's a change to your status, you quit clan, or you have just joined, you are going away for a month, you got xfire, you leveled or anything like that, post that in the CatBook, so we could reflect accordingly. Last thing: Recruitment is closed. Please make exceptions for exceptional players only. Also, all new players (who've joined in the last month) MUST join xfire-clan on xfire.com/clans/hcfs. Recruiters/Chairmen please see to it.+ + + Nov 9 + + +
The CatBook is back! :) Yay.+ + + Nov 8 + + +
This is a bit late, but we have a new player el1tegunna. thecodeman has been with us for over a week now. On the other note: please enjoy the freedom of no one yelling at you for not logging onto xfire and and not playing for a long time. Come december, if you're not active, you're out. Sorry. Also, until then, ranks mean nothing. So, don't sweat if you're a rookie or a lieutenant. Lastly, recruitment is closed. There will be exceptions to especially good players that constantly play w/ us and seem to really represent the gluewy material that holds the clan together. Last thing, Chairmen and such, post xfire events for when you would like to scrim and players, join if you can. This way we can all have quility scrim time.+ + + Nov 4 + + +
A little bit on the sad note here: Our chat has been banned by the host. Well, screw them! Those ungrateful bastards couldn't handle .03MB of usage on their database? I'm not sure why exactly they did that, but they did. Until then chat will be disabled.+ + + Nov 3 + + +
hitmanlt quit the clan. Best of luck to him. We have a new player, thecodeman (sorry for belated announcement). Also we have a new player, xsaosinx. Chairmen, if you see someone in game who needs to get on xfire list, please help them.+ + + Oct 28 + + +
Sorry for posting this a bit late. Game on Saturday was great. Thanks to all who contributed to the fun games. We had 7 HCs in one room. The goal's is to have 8? Thanks to all who came! I got a few messages saying that people can't make Saturday afternoons. Is there a better day/time that is more convenient for you? Please post in chat. I won't be on this coming Saturday. I got an archery friendly-shoot against Stanford. Shooting for real is fun, too, you know? In other news: atomicgunz has been promoted to chairman on trial period. Don't let us down. Also, sorry for posting this so late, but immortalus has joined HC, and an invite has been sent to thecodeman. Hope to see them both play w/ us soon. Note to all recruiters/chairmen: Please, if you add people to clan, post their info in chat, and make then join xfire-clan. So, I need information on anvikwiz. As far as having your second characters being added to roster... I don't really understand why you would need two, unless you want to split your money and level in two, but so be it: if there's a demand for it, ok. If you haven't noticed, but after we switched hosts, all emails @hellcatz have stopped working. New host doesn't support e-mail forwarding. :( Also, I've noticed that a lot of the players are having good games. Your scores and/or screenshots can be posted on the site (duh). Each player is allowed 1 screenshot (of any kind, preferrably a nice score). In addition, more screenshots can be added if it's a clan record (someone beat superman?). Send your screenshots to me when you see me on xfire. --KifArt+ + + Oct 24 + + +
Avatars are finally here! Finally!+ + + Oct 22 + + +
We have a new players, mvandybmx, cookinator+ + + Oct 21 + + +
We had two scrims today. We lost one, and we won one. If you weren't here, you missed out. Also, the password from chat was taken off. Lets see if there's anyone who actually wants to vandalize our site.+ + + Oct 20 + + +
I moved the website to a new webhost. This means that old clan messages are gone. :( However, this new host is more stable, so more uptime :) As far as the play-together event went, thank all of you who showed up. Those were: kibaspirit, xlspyrolx, paco89, twinweapon, deadman10. Also, we have a new member: tailspin. One last thing: I would like to get a vote on who had a headset and who is willing to use it ingame for scrims and such. I know there are a few of you, but we do not have it centralized yet. Just fyi, no matter what, you will not be required to have one or use it. :)+ + + Oct 19 + + +
Today we welcome back two old players (From the Original HC): + smiley04 + snowiix Also, official addition of firetiger1. Also, ***IMPORTANT***. I'm making SATURDAY our play day. If you're never on, at least try to make Saturdays. I posted it as an event on xfire clans page. If it's a bad time/day for you, please post in chat. I'm sure you all know the password by now. I hope to see you all there. Ideally we should fill up the entire room. If there are enough players and abilities, we will also scrim. If there are, Saturday will also be declared scrim day/night. In other news: twinweapon wants to get a ventrilo server. If you have a headset or already use ventrilo, e-mail twinweapon (devanv ?? cavtel ??? net). Or just post it in the chat. Also, if you've leveled up, post your new levels in the chat thing, too. Roster is ordered by levels.. so the higher level you are, the higher your name on the roster. Last thing: As has been suggested, we're doing a vote on the position of atomicgunz in clan. Any thoughts on him being chairman, post in chat. Comments/Suggestion --> to chat thingy...+ + + Oct 17 + + +
The following members left clan: cambodian1 and truegod. Best wishes to them both.+ + + Oct 16 + + +
We have a new member, abolish.+ + + Oct 15 + + +
It's the same date, but a different post. We've welcomed back kibaspirit. He's rejoined our clan. We welcomed back kibaspirit. If you see him in game, tell him to get xfire firetiger1 has joined our clan as well. Also, two chairmen were selected: twinweapon and xlspyrolx. Please treat them with respect. They're also in charge of recruitment, so if you have a friend who wishes to try out, or you would like to try out, please seek them.+ + + Oct 14 + + +
The website was updated. No longer do you have to load the entire 500k of content just to check one little thing. Also the cat was re-drawn, so clear your cache to see the new one. (I'm talking about the icon, not the avatar). NOTE: This means we can post more screenshots! Also, if you wish to post them on like your server, or your photobucket account, it will make the job even easier for me! NEW SECTION: Useful. I plan to post hints and links to useful stuff there. Suggestions are welcome. NEW SECTION: Chat. You can now post messages onto the site so that others could read them! For password, ask KifArt or another clan member. You can write ANYTHING there: suggestions, critisism, cursing, complains, love confessions, whatever. NOTE: Chat only 35 posts are held, so no point in spamming, The database won't overload. I also filter for special chars, so play nice. Keep in mind, I see your IP when I play w/ you on WarRock. KifArt is BUSY. His projects and weeks of procrastination have caught up with him, so he will not be able to play as much. He will however be on X-Fire, and listen to requests and such. NOTE TO LIEUTENANTS+: You can now recruit. You are familiar with the rules, and requirements are posted on the website. Recruit galore! NOTE: We are looking for talented and/or nice people.+ + + Oct 12 + + +
So after the patch avatars disappeard. I assume they will be back soon... At least the avatars will be back. After the scrims today it's clear who plays in good spirit and who doesn't really share the joy. I'll just say don't worry about the scores. One thing is certain, your computer is your only limitation, so if you keep playing, you will all get better. P.S. ePL no longer carries ties with HC. Good luck to them in their ventures. Funny Note: KifArt's xfire contact list went down from 130 to 19...
