well since you asked, Deadly Verdict was formed in 2001, and from the get-go was focused on the community aspect. 19 years later the party is still rocking on strong! DV was founded on the idea that the community aspect of the gaming community should be stronger then the competitive aspect of it, and for that reason we have no requirements. We believe players no matter what level can add to the experience all members.
The main reason Deadly Verdict has survived and the other gaming communities have died is because we realize our members joined us because they want more fun in game. Never forget the reason for the gaming community, and the members will never forget the you.
In 2015 DV suffered a leadership clash, this force DV to shutdown and leadership went our seperate ways, in 2019 I decided to reform DV with the only leader I still played with and trusted. A few old members found out we were back in business and swiftly joined only days after relaunching. Now we set our sights on going into esports and building players and teams.

We launched in november, and are recruiting teams https://forums.dvclan.org/teams/
