A Feud Within Event Horizon. JDWilson
The first of these inside attacks took place mid week when Event Horizon's crew holder at the time, ZKF turned on them. However, ZKF and anther insider attempted a hit on the current Nation Don, only for it to fail. So they then turned onto their original plan, to drop Even Horizon by hard kicking every member and to kill as many as they could before the Nation Don put an end to their attempt. Event Horizon was removed from the statistics page for the second time this week, though made a speedy recovery and got back on their feet.

ATK and D3, who were behind the attack, told me why they turned on Event Horizon and what their plans are for the future. I also got Betty's side to the story. The feud started over one of Event Horizon's bullet factories that was in the possession of ZKF. ZKF had raised the price of the bullets, Betty said, "Didn't ask me, didn't talk with me, but told me he took the bullet factory, increased the price and he wouldn't lower it." She then went on to say, "he said he has a 'plan' and that he has a shooter he is going to stock with that bullet factory". ZKF said, "I told her it was for a few reasons, making good profit to stand on our feet and survive future attacks by having a good stock of points/cash and to stock some shooters with the bullets" on his plans on raising the price of bullets.

This is only the start of the problem. The next day, a member of Event Horizon bought up the topic of the high priced bullets in the crew forum again. I got both sides to this part. First off, Betty said, "ATK made a post saying it was all OK because he and I had talked about it. I made a post correcting what he said, and the price that members thought was our old price". Whereas ZKF said, "apparently his goal was not to discuss the bullet factory pricing as much as it was to cause a conflict, I couldn't care less about any comment of the members as I talked to Betty and she liked the idea", then said, Then Betty made a glorious post saying that she feels that she's been put on the side and not in control of the crew, the decisions made and that she was TOLD about the bullet factory price and not DISCUSSED with, that struck a nerve". Which made his decision to go ahead on what was to come.

Then, after a short conversation between Betty and ZKF via bootmail, ZKF finished by saying, "I'm dropping your crew". Which is what happened. ZKF finished by telling me his plans of working with some some friends, including D3, who helped in the first inside attack, in his words, "wiping them down to base". Although there was no time scale on this, I was shocked to log in several hours later to see Event Horizon had been in sided again.

The holder of the crew, Naser, younger brother of ATK who had helped Event Horizon gain entry to the stats twice prior to this was the one who in sided the crew, although in a conversation Betty provided, he claims to have been hacked by his brother. This inside attack, far more successful that the first, saw around 20 accounts shot at. The insider let in someone called Lava, who had time on his hands to hard kick and kill as many members as possible. I was unable to get the attackers side on this attack due to the timing of the incident.

I'd like to thank both sides on their co-operation and help on this article.
