History

During the summer, Jedi Academy became one of the defining chapters of eXistence, while X-Box Live began to diminish with the loss of Korzac. Much of the recent members of eXistence were recruited then and have stuck with us since, other than those who had already been with eXistence for a substantial amount of time, including the return of Soul/Raw and Brian. The High Council took a vote and decided to give all the members of the High Council equal power, permanently dissolving the ranks of President and Vice President. The message board was improved, tournaments were held in Jedi Knight, and the Jedi Knight Academy was revitalized by Jedi Knight Commander Jai, resulting in the formation of the Masters sub-ranks for the Academy, led by Vasectomy, Link, FallenAngelEnsis, and later Soul/Raw. Activity began to decline slowly by fall, and several members left, including Subzero and Maniac, who had been fighting for quite some time. X-Box Live was left to Excalibur/Never and Krony, while Jedi Knight began to show a decrease in activity in general, resulting in slower recruiting for eXistence. A few old-time members returned, such as Realm, Himura, Feanor, and Rivix. New ideas such as the creation of a clan history and medals began to be tossed around, but other members were dissatisfied. In October, Raw made a deal with the ever-opportunistic Darchind and gave him his account information for the message board so that Darchind could read posts in various forums. This prompted Darchind to register under his own name and begin yet another string of attacks on the High Council, claiming the High Council was concealing its past, lying to eXistence members, and silencing anyone who spoke against them. The members of eXistence vehemently denied this as a majority, but Raw and Darchind used freedom of speech as justification for their assaults upon eXistence. When it was learned that Raw and Darchind had collaborated, the High Council took action and banned Darchind, then ejected Raw from eXistence.
