This is my crew. There are many like it, but this one is MINE. My crew are my best friends. they are my OD life. I must believe in my crew as my crew must believe in me. I must protect my crew with honor. I must race harder than my enemy who is trying to kill me. I must kill them before they kill me. I will... My Crew and myself know that what counts in war is not the wins we accquire, the money we have, nor the epic shit talking we do. We know it is the kills that count. We will kill... My crew is humble, even as I, because it is my OD life. Thus, I will protect it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strengths, its parts, its accessories, its shift levers, and its clutch. I will ever guard it against the ravages of weakminded pathetic players. I will keep my crew safe and ready, even as I am safe and ready. We will become part of each other. We will... Before the Gods of OD I swear this creed. My crew and myself are the defenders of my OD Family. We are the masters of our enemy. We are the saviors of our OD lives. So be it, until there is no enemy, but PEACE.
A Breif History of that which is RPM and TMA
Black Company: the original badass crew of Myspace Overdrive, driven apart by a multi headed leadership. Xadric and Knightrider626 the original Bosses of BC (Black Company) out of sheer boredom or necessity whichever it was Xedric felt it was time to step down as Co-Boss of BC. In his place MustangMel and Don Madonna stepped up. This proved to be a problematic issue that eventually beget the downfall and disenssion of BC. The Three simply did not see eye to eye on the direction of BC. In the process of the rise and fall of BC, Metal Blood had shown leadership and computer savvy skills. As BC was in the separating faction Knightrider 626 and GTR R34 approached Metal Blood with an idea to rise from the ashes of BC like a Phoenix and create another great, nay a better crew. As soon as the split of the BC was announced Metal Blood was already in the stages of creating a chatroom, and Forum for a new crew. Still lacking a crew name we grew none the less. Constantly in deliberation over a crew name desperation sunk in and out came Google Search. Googling of "car crew names" GTR R34 and Metal Blood both came across a Car Club by the name of "RPM Unleashed" they all liked it and decided to stick with it. Then came work on the crews Chatroom, Forum, and Eventually Website (later we junked the website) As soon as the Official name was released a day later after the BC split the crew grew from the original members; ,Metal Blood, GTR R34, Knight Rider, Yota, Oif Veteran, ndrcvrngl, Bay Hill Blondie, Mad Mo Dee, Fast Buck Freddie, bubbles6231979, herpes, DIABLO1, phacuetoo, 69 chevelle, and Dade County Chico, Cobra, Mikeyspeed, Nico bellic, bloodyheart, crumpany, and redneck the very first day and exlpoded to 75 members in a week. a month later there was 100 members of RPM.
Original co-founding members of RPM Unleashed; GTR R34, Knightrider 626 and Metal Blood. Original 4 top officer Positions Knightrider 626 President, GTR R34 V.P. Metal Blood General, Dadez Colonel. After 7 weeks of generally good crew progression some problems arised between a member of RPM and Knightrider 626 due to a list hunt in which Xedric (Knightrider 626's real life brother) was taken down. Knightrider 626 reaction to the situation was less than desirable for some crew members. Knight felt it was time to leave due to the misinterpretation of the situation and his reaction to it. After a lot of discussion between the officers Knight wished to stay in the crew, but with his actions we felt it was time to set the leadership through a voting system. After the vote the top 4 Officers were changed around falling to Metal Blood as President, Dadez as V.P. Knightrider 626 as General and GTR R34 as Colonel. The leadership was then set to where the entire crew saw it best. After weeks and weeks of Metal Blood being the President of RPM, Knightrider 626 with some other crew members decided it was time to leave RPM for good. Not to anyones surprise did we see they did well outside of RPM, but we also saw how they missed RPM severly. It is what happens when you build a family and you leave, you tend to get homesick. Anyways, when Knightrider 626 left RPM GTR R34 was then promoted to General. Metal Blood started to play Facebook Overdrive or FBOD as we like to call it. it was not long before the biggest names and most active and loyal players of RPM started over on FBOD and it was even quicker that a crew was soon to follow. The Metal Army was then born. leading two crews started to show the stress on Metal Blood and soon he asked GTR to step up and take a co-exsiting presidental position aside Metal Blood. Even after the change of GTR helping out with RPM the Stress of multi crews proved to spread Metal Blood too thin and then Stepped down from President of RPM and took an outside officer position as RPM's Information Guru, Chatroom master, and Forum administrator. Keeping his Position of Co-leading King 1 of 2 in TMA.
The Metal Army
Soon After Metal Blood started playing FBOD it was apparent that the players on FBOD were certainly lacking a level of skill that Metal Blood had acquired over a matter of time playing MSOD (Myspace Overdrive) This Lack if Skill by the Frequent members of FBOD had soon become a problem for everyone watching Metal Blood Climb the legends list like it was nothing. it was not long before people were coming to him with questions of "how do you do that?" No one was ready for his level of game play and strategy. before players on FBOD keyed the term "hitlist rider" Metal Blood was taking List Riders down like it was nothing. this grabbed everyone's attention as soon as he started removing members from his crew to take them down. he started gaining a following of haters, as well as fans. it seemed the right time to introduce the idea of a collective crew for the idea of protecting each other and teaching the knowledge of his early learnings from MSOD. this has been beginnings of The Metal Army. (the word Metal in the name The Metal Army is in reference to any of several chemical elements on the periodical table of elements that are usually shiny solids that conduct heat or electricity and can be formed into sheets etc. not to be confused with the reference to Metal the musical genre in the name METAL BLOOD! who's original name on MSOD was Metal is in my Blood for his love of Metal Music!)
How to Join RPM/TMA
Scroll up to the section of the page where it lists the different page titles "RPM/TMA crew Creed, Friends Chats, Music Page, Forum, and Facebook." click on Forum then read the rules in the forum. if you agree with them register on the forum. rules for applicants for RPM and TMA are different, but for different reasons. RPM applicants can gain access to the forum immediately depending on who recruited them and who speaks for them. TMA members are required to wait a 7 day period this way the information we have does not leak to the masses of FBOD, and it gives these members a chance to add all TMA members for the 7 day probation. TMA members need to by the end of 7 days have a understanding of how the officers work and how the chatroom works. RPM members after the 7 day probation need just to have been frequent in the chatroom for the 7 days. even a 5 minute stop but is acceptable. TMA members need to attempt to do the same with chatroom visitings. we want to get to know you, we want you to get to know us. after your probation which is whenever you gain access to the forum, you need to do 2 things. 1- post your information to your myspace pages of your hunter or rider or both accounts in the members section. 2- take the time to read all of the guides we have in the guide section. we don't mind answering questions or helping you out, but if you don't have a general knowledge of how the game works you might catch some shit about asking a question that is answered in the forum.
above all else have fun, glad you stopped by and hope to see you return real soon thank you.
