All jokes aside, we gave you a lot of shit but you were alright when you were around - despite being what Dave would have called a "whispering mess."

You were no king leif9 though.

If you could recruit anyone from a rival clan from your time in CoR who would it be and why (It can't be someone that was previously in CoR and left to join someone else)?

My best friend outside of CoR was probably Rick/Bereadytodie so overall it probably would have been him.

I'll leave the xbox question and ads for Robtokill

What would I have done better? I don't know what more I/we could have done. I think when you look back we were probably 16/17 so we weren't as mature or as level headed as we are now so it's hard to remember the decisions we made.  However I would have tried to push my era's agenda/outlook harder and sooner. I think my era took too long for our outlook and mentality to be pushed into the clan. My opinion is that some of the leadership before us were a bit softer (Enzock is a good example) - they had a different view of not crashing or retaliating but they forget that Robtokill built Corruptions reputation on it having a ruthless IDGAF attitude. This kind of dropped off over the years and I think had we of drilled this back into our members at an earlier stage, whenever the crashing mentality was becoming more normal, we would have been A LOT more ruthless and successful.  This softer mentality mentioned does not include Rob though as I think he had a very similar mentality to the likes of Me, Code, Dave, Starman, Conditions etc - hell Rob was the first person to say "crash them back"

The summer of 2010 is a perfect example of Corruption thriving on its old mentality of ruthless attitude where the leadership of Code, Starman, Chopa conducted the main leader responsibilities and then myself, conditions and mage boy (dave) called the in game and warring shots.

Chopa literally was a part of every cor peak lol.

Who were the clans you enjoyed fighting against, and who were some of the clans you hated to fight?

What clans did your strengths match up well against, and which clans exploited your weaknesses most effectively?

As I said before I have no regrets... but one thing I wish we did better collectively was transition effectively from the old guard to the new guard. There was a lot of tension between high ranking officials that gave COR its notorious instability. We had a bunch of people in leadership who were of the old guard: no crashing, no flaming, no outside game "tactics," or any of those things that pretty much every clan was doing from 2009 onwards. COR had a major identity crisis because the newer guard wasn't given the control to do as they wanted.

This prob started with Rad, his brother, and others when they left. It continued when I got into leadership and later Jay. By the time I was the actual leader of the clan it was probably too late to right these wrongs, but COR had a lot of success when I was given leader with Starman and we were able to run the clan our way. It was one last good run. If we could have found a way to bridge that gap better we would have been a much more stable clan.
