A few months back, we had a crew of the week article here at the Buzz. The responses seemed to be pretty positive and it seemed to increase our amount of readers. After a discussion with the editors and some of the readers, I have decided to bring this article back each week. The concept is pretty simple, to give each of you at look at how the various crews on the game operate and to show you what separates them from the others. For those of you looking for a crew, this just might help you find the one that is right for you. At this time I would like to present you with the first Crew of The Week, Apocalypse!
Statistics:
Bosses: resurrection and MeeyuhAlwaizDyz
Maximum Capacity: 100
Current Members: 95
Recruiters: Members of the council
Crew Tax: $150,000 weekly
Necessary Rank: N/A
Necessary Wealth: N/A
Establishment:
VitoCorleone A.K.A. Thriller1 and resurrection A.K.A. Karma decided that they would like to get a crew on the stats page very early on in the reset. VitoCorleone gambled to make money while resurrection saved money the sensible way, by doing organized crimes, committing crimes and such. During the beginning of June, they would get their chance to run an official crew. With Jordan placing the crew spot of EvolutioN up for sale, negotiations began and within a few days the crew spot had changed hands. The price they paid is unknown. With only a small group of friends and the acquirement of a spot sooner then expected, the members had no idea what to name this spot. On the 26th of June, Apocalypse was chosen and the name was officially changed. During the past 3 months, the crew has grown significantly, reaching the number one ranking on BootCrews where it remains. VitoCorleone has since stepped away from the game, naming Mea as his replacement.
On a more personal note, resurrection wanted to add, Good luck to alaa in RL by the way!
Recruitment:
The recruiting of Apocalypse is one of the major things that set this crew apart from the others on Bootleggers. It may also be the strangest method Ive seen in 4 years here. There is an easy way in at the moment; if you give Peaking a good blow-job, you get the 'I sucked off Peaking' picture enabling you to join! Its simple enough, yet surprisingly weird.
Problematic Members:
Depending on the offence, the members of Apocalypse are warned, kicked and even possibly killed. Things such as begging, scamming, being offensive or aggressive, and killing without permission are not tolerated. The crewmembers are expected to have fun, and in turn make it fun for others!
Uniqueness:
This crew brings new meaning to the term forum whore. The crew forum is worse than the OTF most time, but always amusing and full of life. The members of Apocalypse are always up for a good laugh! They often pull friends into the crew for a visit just to spice things up and stop the conversation from getting stale! The diversity in playing styles throughout this crew makes it unique. You will find people that play for fun, people that play for the killing aspect of the game, just to gamble, or just to chat, yet they all have one common goal
to make Apocalypse the best it can be.
Overall, the members of Apocalypse make this one of the most amusing crews you will ever find on Bootleggers. MeeyuhAlwaizDyz and resurrection run a tight ship but a fun one to say the least. I would like to thank them and each member of Apocalypse for making my visit so memorable and entertaining! Stay tuned next week as we bring you another crew!
In the mean time, if you have any ideas or suggestions to make this a better article, feel free to send me a BM!
