The History of Forsaken Scourge Motorcycle Club

Formed officially in February of 2016, the group of men and women who would come to form Forsaken Scourge Motorcycle Club were together for a long while doing their own thing with their own clubs for the longest time. People came and went for a while before the foundations were finally solid enough to form something better, something that could last.

 

Members came from all over, from the founder coming from Hounds of Ragnarok, the current secretary from an Anti-Fascist Anarchist crew, and the original VP pulled kicking and screaming from the dying Odens Spear MC.

 

As with all clubs, it wasn't an easy start. Problems grew from old relations turning sour and new relations not exactly being trustworthy, but internal problems, for the most part, were almost nonexistent; Any in-house problems are still suffocated before they can fester.

 

In late 2016 Forsaken Scourge underwent a "Reboot" with GTA:O slowing down and people moving on to other games the club closed it's doors for a week and revised it's situation, after some deliberation, it was decided to refresh the club and implement more active and engaged officers, the future looked bright.

 

With the return of the Founder and National President from a hiatus, and the reboot of the club, things turned around, members who had left and started their own ventures during the period of inactivity prior to the reboot returned to Forsaken Scourge, recruitment increased, activity slowly returned and FSMC hit the road once again.

 

3 months down the line interest began to build from brothers across the pond, and after a few messages and talks the Sandy Shores charter of Forsaken Scourge opened its doors with our first American Charter,The charter started slow but word of mouth spread and old friends started rearing their heads from times past to see how we were doing and some decided they'd like to take an opportunity with us.

 

With the release of the Gunrunning DLC the club hit a period of lowered activity and saw a small group of members start up a Mercenary Crew. With this group gone from the club, but still on good terms, FSMC looked to the future, not only for themselves but for the community as a whole and came to the same conclusion as several other clubs, MCs need to come together and stand our ground or be washed away by the tide of heavy weapons and military BS.

 

Around two weeks into the Gunrunning release, and after several prolific clubs shut their doors to explore the military side of things, Forsaken Scourge is standing in a slowly dwindling group of clubs still holding on to the old ideals of GTA MCs. The shame of the Gunrunning DLC is the amount of MCs that have either shut down or turned into military crews with a patch.

 

New Years 2018 rolled around and the club ran one final purge and reboot. This time we didn't half-ass it. A number of patches and prospects we removed for inactivity or simply lack of dedication to the club. In the days following this reboot, the club ran as a skeleton crew, not accepting new recruits until the officers were happy with what they were doing. When recruitment opened again the club once again swelled with interest, people looking to hang around or just chill with the club.

 

In February 2018, one month after the clubs new year reboot we ran our 2 year anniversary event. This was a hugely successful event producing some good content for the club as well as acting as a promotion for new recruits and to really reconnect with some old friends. Forsaken Scourge MC stands strong as a true brotherhood, despite any of the deadbeat negativity coming from a couple of jealous clubs.

 

As we came into Summer 2018, a few good friends left the community because it had been getting stale, a few good members left us for other ventures in GTA or on other games but relationships built here transcend the club. Friends we made within the club remain friends through separations or patching out and that's our main goal. We build real friendships here as many of our newbloods comment on, that everyone here seems to know each other so well that they feel uncomfortable the first time they're with a large group of the club, but give it an hour and they feel like they belong to this ragtag group of misfits and renegades.

 

Cut to New Years 2019 and then Febuary, our 3rd Anniversary event; The Scourge is stronger than ever, Growing every day, But as always, jealous individuals will always try to fight the success of others, will that stop us? FUCK NO! If You Aint Forsaken You Aint Shit!

Through all the ups and downs Forsaken Scourge stays true to its original ideals, take what ye can and give nothing back! It's the pirates' life for us mate.
