August 2003...

 

A stirring occurs within the political internal structure of the hierarchy of a semi known and unbalanced gaming institution...

 

Three enlisted officers begin to see the hypocrisy of the its command structure and decide to break away and free themselves in order to create a democratical system that would benefit those whom love the art of online gaming.

 

We began as a Trek clan; the Hazard Team moniker comes from the game Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force. Elite Force was our first game, and we were founded some time in the Summer of 2003, when a few members of UF (United Federation) split to form HT. We expanded to other Trek games such as Bridge Commander and Armada/Armada II and others.


This is the story of the three founders (Equinox, Krip, and Metatron) of The Hazard Team. Their departure would lead their adversaries to formulate various methods of destruction such as mass propoganda, deceit and declarations of war. However, Equinox, Krip, and Metatron were able to overcome the tactics of this disorganized clan and thus create an organized gaming structure that would allow others to have the freedom to use thier talents and ablities without the hindrance of a dictatorial mentality or the flagrant use of an iron fist.

 

Thus...The =HaZard Team= was formed, and it now remains as a prominent, respected and influential institution within the cyberspace community...

The Hazard Team is currently defunct, and we haven't had an active Bridge Commander division for many years...

 

We then adopted mainstream games such as Counter-Strike series, Call of Duty series, Medal of Honor series, and Battlefield series. In our hayday, we played Left 4 Dead/Left 4 Dead 2, Battlefield 2 and Battlefield 2142.

 

Things slowed down in the last couple years, and at this point we are completely defunct, our forums dormant for many months. We did not compete heavily, it was mostly a closed community.

 

Around the time of our founding, there was a large feud between clans such as HT and SF, against UF and RS. The reason for the dispute is lost in time for the most part.
