The History of [AC]

According to B8, Oldest Known Member (Age-Wise)

The clan began with a group of people playing on "The Grounds" server. The people were Amy, Lepper, Eno, and a few others lost to time. One person commented about a clan name and it was suggested that they call themselves "Amy's Children". This was after people started using the suffix GSR on the name to stand for "Grounds Server Regular."

One evening a person asked how old Amy was and the reply came as "82 years old." Since this was not an answer anyone wanted to hear it became a clan joke.

About 2005 we got our own server and moved there to play. The theory of the clan was that anyone who could play without team killing and keep the language clean deserved a shot at admin.

Our original forums server was kept in a closet and crashed one day taking with it all of the posts, history, and every file that it ever had.

We had our first problem with abusive admin with B8 and he is the cause to the admin code of conduct that was posted on our server:

  1. No racist or hateful language will be tolerated.
  2. Respect all other players
  3. Respect your administrators
  4. No porn or other indecent sprays allowed
  5. Do not Cheat. This will not be tolerated in any circumstances
  6. Do not accuse anyone of cheating. Should you suspect someone of cheating, use the "teamsay" function in-game
    (default button u) with the @ symbol to advise admins of your suspicions. Example: "teamsay: @I suspect Johnny is cheating".
    If no admins are present, please see below.
  7. Do not purposely flashbang, shoot, or otherwise carelessly injure teammates.
  8. Do not attempt to override any bans (perm or temp).
  9. Do NOT impersonate your administrators. Do so at your own risk of being banned

This code was later amended into a much more complex thing and can be found on our server today, perhaps in the archive.

We moved the server several times to upgrade it to a better machine. We went from a 33 tick machine to a 100 tick machine but always stayed with a 16 person CS:S server.

Along came TF2, so a new TF2 server was added to our clan. It is currently being shared with TEAM!FiSSION as a joint effort.
