Leaders: !!* Alone Vampire !!
Past Leaders: Hуѕтєяιa X™ • Wolves • Morchid • `P R O D I G Y™ • Pinterest • Glassy • iHydra

"This is nokia2mon2's special group that he controls."

The group was formed as a result of multiple significant donations made by nokia2mon2. He has donated over $10,000 in the name of the group, and so a drop shadow to the usernames of members of the group was added - it is the only usergroup to feature bespoke username styling. Before the introduction of the official Deal Dispute Database, the group was in charge of the Red Lions Scammer Database: a list of user-submitted scammers.

The group was formed in January of 2011 under the sole leadership of nokia2mon2. Over 100 member upgrades have been made in the name of the group to date. Its current leader !! Alone Vampire *!!, has been appointed to restart the group.

Without balance there is chaos.

Equilibrium is a group dedicated to giving support to all users throughout the entire forum on any topic. There have been many groups who have claimed to be helping the forum without showing anything to back it up. The concept of this group was inspired by a quote from Tranquility, the leader of a group formerly known as The Creed. Our members will be dedicated to helping out others in threads which are posing a question or calling us to action. Tutorial threads may be useful, but we feel that single posts who help one or more users inside their own threads are more valuable.

"The Brotherhood is an organization of individuals who are bound by loyalty to exercise their skills, knowledge, and time, which will encourage the acts of assisting oneself and others."

The group was initially invitation only, but opened recruitment due to many forum members' interest in joining the group. We understand from public announcements by the leaders it is due a restart. It was formerly known as the Marketers, until it was closed due to members' involvement in massive thread-push abuse. It was purchased by Cryptic™ and remained a blank group for roughly a month until June of 2013.

It recently returned under new leadership by Views, and Illuminati.

"Others toil their entire lives to make a name for themselves, some are just born LEGENDS."

Legends is a diverse group not fixed on a particular agenda. Marketing, programming, hacking, you name it - but only people who make the cut will be accepted. They strive to contribute, teach and learn as individuals, but do not consider prestige or reputation to increase any chances of getting in Legends.

The group was formed on September of 2015 after being purchased as a new slot (in place of Illuminati) for approximately $8,500 and recruitment was opened its first day.
