In the beginning

The road for the DES clan started off rough in the AssaultCube community, having a few early problems with a few trouble making members. At this point, Halo appointed a co-leader to help keep things under control. TwItCh gave the clan web space, in the trade off of the open co-leader position. Order and change quickly came.

Changes in structure

Since the resignation of co-leader TwItCh, the clan DES formed a council of six members (DES Elite) to promote the clan in the ac community and maintain order within the clan. Halo, originally named KC, remains the overall leader while the five other members of the elite group have equal voting rights on issues concerning the clan.

Server Monitoring

The clan has set up a dropbox client to monitor their servers. The dropbox client allows others to monitor the servers run by DES (for instance, the clan's other members.). Halo, TampaMike and sunnyD have all added their servers to this. Created by Freddo is another excellent add-on with his IRC bot BlackRaptor or BR for short, which allows certain people on IRC to Blacklist a person easily.

The blacklists for mushroom, heavens, and tampa can be found on DES' homepage in links.

IRC

The clan runs an IRC channel located at irc.gamesurge.net #DedicatedEliteSoldiers. Thanks toFreddo, an IRC client has been added to the clan site, which links straight to the IRC channel. Based in Java to run in your browser, the application is very easy to use. It can be found here.
