In WoW, there are far fewer pages, and this topic is on page 3.

Didn't I participate in either of them?

Who is to blame?

well, and the first one

The Sea of Irrus is a real sea that exists on the map of Ashan. It became famous thanks to the renowned factions of the Favorite (Vihr; someone promised to write about it, don't you remember?). It is used when another faction creator starts writing and distorts the original history as they please. Original mentions of the Sea of Irrus: one and two. An example of using the meme: MeG0KrUtA9 rAsSа!!1 Other examples: Post No. 4. Posts Nos. 5, 7, 8, 9. Post No. 647. Deleted post. Examples (of my own creation): - I want to create a dragon race! It will be a strong race with many cool abilities! History: long ago, orcs were mages and created creatures, and they created many dragons, and then the dragons started living on their own!!! - Did they live on the shores of the Sea of Irrus? - Here's my suggestion for the Heroes storyline: the unicorn empire is expanding, and then new enemies appear!!1 They will be ice demons; they are very strong! They captured the unicorn empire and went after the elves, but the cunning and sly elves joined forces!!1 They all united, and a new race of night elves appeared!!1 And here's how the new campaign will be about them fighting each other!!1 - That's not interesting. Where is the Sea of Irrus? Moral: dear faction creators, we appreciate and love you. But try to think through your ideas so that people don't laugh at you. P.S. I hope everyone knows perfectly well that the word "race" is spelled with one C.

And don't forget to write about the Sea of Irsus!

By the way, you won't believe it, but there's a mention of "Heroes of the World" on Lurkmore.

Want some legends? I have plenty...

Nowadays, in our new, blessed time, few newcomers even notice the existence of two role-playing games in the gaming section. But in the old days, these topics were well-established and comfortable. Well, where there are two people, there is a phenomenon, known as a "flame war."
It happened a long time ago, and Magnus and Tengro clashed in a bloody battle. And the master brigade of RPGs, for that matter. But it all started peacefully.
It is no longer feasible – especially for me, an old and musty soul – to delve into the topic and present that story to the public, so I will retell it from memory.
Unlike modern RPGs, the balance in those days was not yet well-established, and the inattention of the main GMs led to great troubles for everyone. In particular, Magnus, who was then a relatively newcomer, managed to smuggle many goodies from the TES universe into the role-playing game set in an alternative Ashan (nowadays, the author would be bought out in the Sea of Irrus for such an alternative, but then it was something new). And – an elephant.
At that time, no one had personal mounts. And when Magnus, on an elephant, tried to levitate across the sea using boots of levitation...
In general, the argument was long and unpleasant. But the phrase "let's put levitation boots on the elephant" was remembered by the players of that time.
And then Magnus created his own RPG. An interesting one. But that is a completely different story.
P.S. If you want, dig into the RPG topics. There is a lot there...

And here is another legend, which I myself had the honor of witnessing. It’s hard to believe, but long ago, even before the first forum RPG appeared, there were no Clans! Those were golden times for lone gunfighters who solved their problems in Tournaments or individual battles. A dark and difficult time when a player could only rely on his own experience and trusted comrades. The “Wild West” of Heroesworld. But the Creator, in His mercy, created Clans. At first, seasoned old-school players looked at the concept of Clans with amusement, but some sensed which way the wind was blowing and that the era of proud loners threatened to become a thing of the past. And, it must be said, back then, Clans were organized simply. There weren’t any “Basic Regulations for Clans” or LZMС yet – to join a Clan, you needed at least four people and a desire. And the names of the first Clans have already faded from memory, and only the elders remember them and their founders. The oldest can be considered "E pluribus unum," which united many players under its banner - from level 1 to level 5. But even "E pluribus unum" wasn't the first. The first was a Clan whose name has already been erased from my memory but remains in the List of Clans. This wonderful Clan was called "Dark Templars." And this Clan was founded by the main slackers of that time - Rean, Night, Supreme, and your humble servant, Tengro. Unfortunately, the Clan didn't distinguish itself in anything - in the matters that are proper for a Clan - and soon quietly fell apart. But I can confidently say that it left its mark because: Rean became a staff journalist for the portal. Tengro and Supreme ran the first portal RPG. And Night remained the same as he always was – the number one prankster. To tell the truth, Rean and Supreme generally cooled off towards the idea of Clans and then disappeared from the forum. And Night and Tengro were accepted into the ranks of the strongest Clan existing at that time, and, I believe, still existing today - "E pluribus unum." Thus ended the story of the First Clan. Here is the Creator’s list confirming my correctness

What about the vibrohammer? You didn't write about it :(

But I did!

Well, at the request of the moderator, our unparalleled Drakkosha (what a flattering snake I am, I'm almost ashamed)

Long ago, but not as long ago as the stories I've told before, already in the time of clans and the time of the LzMS, when it was easy to find a living person on the forum, and not only in the "Everything about everything" section, Nimizida, the founder of the "Knights of the Apocalypse" clan, came to the blessed lands of the Heroesworld. He was probably a good guy - but his fellow clan members were not always so. And also - and this was a Mortal Sin for me at that time - the founder of the clan was terribly illiterate.
But - this is just a prelude, the tale is yet to come.
It started with Nimizida and his right-hand man, КейДжей1313 (as his enemies called him then, КаЖо1313), criticizing the existence of the LzMS. Most of that great mess was decided to be cleaned up, but something still remained...
And you don't have to look far - the representative thread of that clan, starting from the sixth page and up to the ninth, seems to be a battlefield.
The fact is that during the criticism of the LzMS, Nimizida - or КейДжей, it was a long time ago - so angered the usually calm ТаКо that he received a negative reputation point. This caused a stir, and the "Knights" tried to retaliate with "negative terror." The noise was excellent - the fighters of the EPU stood up for the honor of the offended leader. As one of those present called it, "The Great War to the Ban." Interestingly, as far as I know, although it was suggested to resolve the differences in a fair fight, it never took place.
Now the leadership of the clan has changed, so perhaps the clan is no longer a gathering of eccentrics... but the most interesting thing is what Nimizida wanted and with what arguments.
Yes, in fact, the "War" flared up on the basis of cries in the spirit of "DOWN WITH DICTATORSHIP!" (the quote is accurate) - the "rebels" demanded the abolition of the LzMS, and the founders, of course, were against it. Nimizida and ТаКо clashed particularly fiercely.
Nimizida didn't like the LzMS on the basis of "distrust of people." He "doesn't trust people, people are scoundrels, and in general, power in the hands of others is bad for everyone."
Given his writing style - illiteracy, PATHOS, and BRIGHT colors - it's not surprising that he wasn't taken seriously, and some even mocked him.
Those who want to read the story - "LzMS Meetings" in the clan section, pages from the 4th to... the 8th, I think.

The war was a landmark event for the forum.
Because it was after it that the new Regulations on Clans arose.
And the fighters had a lot of fun.

About Tigryonok? Oh, ma'am, it was so long ago that I'm not sure I even remember the dates! Although, I can sketch out a brief history from memory. Or rather, how Tigryonok became famous. Tigryonok was a notorious spammer. To give you a better picture, dear readers, this was a time when moderators, like sheriffs, patrolled the forums, mercilessly taking down anyone who dared to break the rules. This was long before the Moderation Crisis. Tigryonok was the first in a line of such users, and that's what he's remembered for. Despite the spam, off-topic posts, and ALL-CAPS RANTS, he was, in essence, a decent guy, although he didn't like moderators. I was very young and very hot-headed back then, very proud of my title, and I still remember the arguments in the mini-chat – real, personal, and full of profanity, for which Tigryonok was banned repeatedly. A terrible moderator's tale was that one day, sooner or later, Tigryonok would get moderator colors, and then someone would definitely shoot themselves. Yes, by the way, not "Tigryonok" – "TIGRYONOK". That was also a distinguishing feature. He was a cool guy, actually – it's people like him that any community is built on. Yes, he was impulsive, but he didn't abandon his friends. More specifically, I got to know him after joining the EPU. He was a good player, a decent conversationalist, and sometimes showed truly animalistic intuition. But his impulsiveness and sharp tongue eventually led Tigryonok to a permanent ban. I'm ashamed to admit it, but I was one of the first to vote for one of his early bans. Tigryonok would sometimes come back under different nicknames, asking to be unbanned, and it seems he was unbanned – but only for a short time, as he didn't lose his impulsiveness. Of the famous forum users of our time, Tigryonok was like a mix of Arandor and Loken – but with a time-specific twist. Back then, there was no Lurkmore, and even spammers were somewhat endearing... However, with the wisdom of age, even the local hooligan seems quite endearing. But, in reality, Tigryonok, although he was a true anarchist, despising authority and laws, turned out to be not such a terrible monster upon closer acquaintance. I don't think that if Tigryonok had been unbanned back then, he would have changed. But I am firmly convinced that Tigryonok was honest. If he didn't like you, he would say so in the mini-chat (there was a mini-chat at the top of the main forum page back then), without holding back. And although he liked to swear and argue, he wouldn't stab you in the back – he just couldn't. A rare species, "The Red Book of Heroezworld."

I think that along with the story about clan conflicts, it would be appropriate to explain what LZMС is and what it entails. I personally forgot. You can find all this information on the forum, of course, but it's better when all the information is in one place :)

I'll add that the "Knights of the Apocalypse" clan conducted a fairly active recruitment campaign and tried to invite all or almost all newcomers who showed any activity. Personally, I received an invitation to this clan before I even left twenty posts on the forum. As you can easily guess, I politely declined the offer.

Werevolka, the problem isn't in the definitions. Back then, a newcomer to the internet would come to the forum and either accept its rules or leave. No one in their right mind would try to adopt the traits of the outcasts of online society, so they were loners – semi-legendary, fearsome loners, the terror of newcomers, and the enemy of moderators. But nowadays, being a "troll" and a "moderator-hater" is considered normal on Lurk. That's wrong, yes. Well, yes, Major, the line about LZMS should have been removed. LZMS, also known as "League of Laws - Inter-Clan Council," is the name of the organization that, in theory, was supposed to control the activities of the clans within it and prevent dirty tricks. It was the legislative power in the clan segment of the forum. Some newcomer clans assumed that the LZMS would pose a threat to clans not belonging to the League, and they even formed their own society, which, as far as I know, didn't even survive in the section. Unfortunately, the LZMS, as far as I know, distinguished itself primarily with its new "Regulations on Clans." And there was also the "Heroic International" at one time, but to tell you about it in detail, I'll have to dig through a lot of history...

Yeah, now the "Knights" are definitely not a gathering of weirdos, but rather a collection of the best online three-player fighters. The majority of the current active members joined the clan after those events...

That's better – for everyone, I must say

I was digging around in the depths of WoW and came across this thread – it’s short but full of heated arguments; maybe some people remember it. I don't recall the details anymore, and I probably couldn't describe it eloquently anyway.

Damn.
While digging through old threads, I understand how Karqun from the Black Guard felt back then, when he decided to embark on an adventure with Shevith.
So many people who used to spend days on the forum.
Knight, Joker, and Hacker, Celt, Alex-Punk, Vano_Goot, Smoke, Supreme, Novizard...
Who remembers these names? Historians, digging through the forum's archives in search of useful advice or lulz... Ancient Clan Leaders, remembering their rise and fall, but rarely condescending to the common folk... and old, musty, nostalgic smart guys like me.
But as long as we remember them, they live on.
And that, in its own way, is a kind of immortality...

Tengro
Well, you certainly said something there. It's like talking about veterans of World War II.
Although... when I first came online, it seemed like some incredible, otherworldly place, and its old-timers seemed like kings, if not demiurges...
And the atmosphere on this site is also maintained accordingly. Not too relaxed, let's say. I remember the phrase of the main administrator, something like, "I think my nickname doesn't match what we're all promoting here... I'll change it to 'Creator,' it will sound more solid.'"

"Little Root found the keyboard, Little Root went to the forum, now we're all doomed, he flooded the entire forum with Root's posts."
An epic phrase by Starhan, I didn't find the original post, I suspect it was deleted, but thanks to Root himself (aka Light God) for quoting it in the violations section.
