From back when IBIS was on the street
This is a cell phone pic I found from 2005 when the clan itself was only a few friends who played in cal. We started off on the streets with no server but thanks to this growing community that we have had after launching our first server years ago we have become the great community and servers we are today
IBIS Master
Thats amazing!
IBIS Regular
That story made my heart shed a tear
Keep up the good work of owning a fantastic server

Below I will attach other funny pics from my 2005 cell phone cam
So in order:
First is a pic from a place in south Georgia where they still had people pump your gas for you, a full service gas station.
The second pic is of a monitor I moded
Next is some chick in a cooler, she needed to cool off apparently...
This truck I saw when I pulled off the interstate to get some lunch!
This is a one of a kind HL2 poster that was made prior to the games release to commemorate the event, I own this poster.
This was on the bathroom door in west Virginia
I can not remember where I saw this
An engine...
An awesome car with a better engine.
From the same car show as that truck
Apparently this is what it looked like when the pirate house has Christmas... (Halloween)
This was also seen in that car show I randomly ran into.

Ok, now back to other old files and data from back in the early days of ibis: December 2006
darksaber24: i think we should focus on less "red tape" and more on playing css
darksaber24: why do we have a clan
darksaber24: to have fun with guys on cs as a team
darksaber24: thats the way i look at it
darksaber24: thats y i joined
darksaber24: to be part of a fun group of guys
darksaber24: i think if we clearly state the clan rules and admin rules up front there wont be any discussion over them
NO TAG CHANGES
: i think the forums should be streamlined more organization
darksaber24: divided into admin groups clan groups and general groups
darksaber24: i think some posts should be gone
darksaber24: i think we should fix the server map rotation
darksaber24: i think no more map vote or a limited amount of available maps for vote
darksaber24: allows for a stable server
darksaber24: we have to organize the recruiting process
darksaber24: i think that just observing for couple of weeks is not a good idea
darksaber24: we can do that
darksaber24: wat if a guy who wants in only plays late at night after we are gone
darksaber24: we need a form of tryout
darksaber24: wat im saying is clean up forums
darksaber24: have a rules page for each different group
darksaber24: admin and clan
darksaber24: have all the info and equipment needed in a announcement or its own forum
darksaber24: such as vent info, xfire, etc
darksaber24: and have a list with all that info for each member
darksaber24: that way communication is always readily available
darksaber24: thats wat it comes down to communicaiton
darksaber24: i mean i dont think i have officially talked to zero or jigsaw at all
darksaber24: now i know we are just starting out so i think it should be presented now before its really too late

One month after the above steam message the ibisgaming.com domain was registered.

Think IBIS is ever going to die? This message was sent to everyone via e-mail on the original forums January 18, 2007:
---------- Post added at 05:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:22 PM ----------"1. IBIS IS NOT DEAD. Only our leader (who, with all respect was only mostly a server admin) has resigned his position. We are being run now by others who will strive to hold this clan together, and respect all those former members who have held strong throughout this confusion.
2. WE ARE BACKTRACKING. We notice that we tried to expand much too fast into a large clan. We are going back to the good old 20 man pub that made us so likeable by so many.
3. WE ARE NOT SPLITTING UP. We have become aware of many rumors swarming throughout the clan. These rumors stem from many things, including Jared's resignation. Most IBIS members have not distinctly left. They are in a sort of limbo, and they need to come back to what we had. We are going back to the good times, where everyone was happy. "
-----------------
The above was the post made by 'voodoo the llama' and can sum it up fairly well.
The new server will be 20 slots, and the maps/mods will be chosen and dictated by the community and its members.
Also, since it seemed to be a major concern of all those that left, the AWP and AUTOSNIPERS will be unrestricted, or at least, limited to 2 a team.
Now that one of the main admins/founders has stepped down from his position(Jared/JigSaW), the current members and community will dictate what ibis should now do in all reasonable bounds.
We understand that a few clans have spurred off to create exactly what ibis is doing, or is about to do, so why not simply return to ibis, just in time for CAL?
All previous admins and clan positions will be (re)assigned without discrimination.
We acknowledge that the members who left did so with justification, but now that ibis is reformed, why not come back?
Lets do exactly what clans are suppose to do, which seemed to have been forgotten…have fun!
I hope to see all of you return to a great clan.
It would be 12 months later in December of 2007 that IBIS Gaming got its own forums on vbulliten which we use to this day

5 months later the database was broken and all the forums were deleted, starting us over from scratch.

This is the first multi clan issue that ever started on our servers and the e-mail informing me about it from April 2007:
This e-mail is for ZER0 of the IBIS counter-strike regime.
Hello ZER0, sorry to bother you with server drama so early as an admin...
There has been some issue with admin The Sandman (not sure if that is the exact name)
calling =AHillz= members: "venters" "ghosters" etc. I wasn't going to bring this up I figured it
was just because we were new however I witnessed Malefica kicked tonight.
I was going to mal's house to dicuss meeting up @ the bar. After arriving I played with his pup and
watched him own/be owned a little. He was the only one playing... after watching 5minutes Sandman
said, which appeared to be in reply, that we were just venters and mentioned a derogatory remark
about us. Honestly out of nowwhere. Malefica replied he didn't even have a mike you fucking ass. I'm
sure it was something quite beligerant never the less, truthful. Sandman then kicked his ass. Mal had
to wait (full server) then pops back on 5min later and tells Sandman he can't be pulling this shit with
CoLa as an admin. Sand asked if "are you threatning me!?" hostily a few times. Mal told Sandman
that he said what he wanted to say. End of that bullshit.
Everyone on the server seems to be cool with us and accept us, now that we've played
with them for so many hours. Most of the players have seen howoften we play alone, duos, trios,
quatros. How our playstyle is damn good at times (shitty at others) that we fuck up and rape and make
mistakes like good players. Noone has really tried to call this "vent" shit on us. We're all literally
best friends that live in michigan, we're competetors at heart and would never try to get
the upperhand on a freaking pub let alone each other. We're too goddamn competitive
hell mal brags all day about being top 10, think we're gonna try and ruin our integrity by
venting or ghosting? It's honestly ridiculous.
AHillz is a college group of potsmoking gradeschool friends who love playin games
(been playing counterstrike for 5+ years, just took a break for a year or two then joined IBIS)
I purchased admin for more credibility and stability. There were some people
throwing up =AHillz= Lozerkid (laptop) and tking the shit out of teammates. It is just
ridiculous, I want to have a fantastic server to play onn. We don't play cal or anything
we just pub like nubs so it's fun to have a solid server to hang out and frag on. Noone wants their clan
to look silly or hackers to play the game, were as large in favor of that as anyone. If anything
we believe we bring more competitive, skill based action to the game. We do it in a
legit manner as anyone else would.
Just giving you a heads up ZER0, honestly man you seemed really cool today which
I respect. We've gotten a slight bit of grief ever since we started playing 1-2 weeks ago.
I will definitely address sandman in a positive manner but being firm he needs to show
some respect and chill, play the game, have fun.
Just making sure you understand where ahillz comes from.
