ELITE (the Entrusted Leaders In Thwarting Enemies) is a clan that has been around for a long time, persistently staying in the game. Our website can be found here, where you can find out more than you would ever want to know, and where you can sign up.

History
ELITE has been around since late 2008. Sir Trekie and Chaos Al, who were both students at an online high school, made a clan with some of Chaos's friends. This was the first incarnation of the ELITE. A month passed without many worries, but, later, some in-fighting came up. It was around this time that Sir Trekie began playing World of Warcraft (WoW), and left the clan for an extended period of time.

The in-fighting continued, and the clan was soon disbanded, with Obashardi deserting the ELITE and forming the REBELS.While Chaos Al and Koramon6 continuing ELITE. Until Chaos Al left to the Iconic Knights. Then Obashardi and Koramon6 decided to make a truce and started up the ELITE again, though it didn't last long and the ELITE shut down again due to in-fighting between some of the first members. This was during the spring and summer of 2009.

Meanwhile, Sir Trekie was deeply involved in WoW, under the names "Lamesu" or "Suda," at different times. As he was slowly gaining in-game experience, he gained much more clan and guild experiences. Near the end of the summer, he became confident he knew enough about in-game social organizations, and decided to make a guild of his own: a "hardcore leveling guild," as he called it. Under the same name as this RuneScape clan, the WoW version of ELITE was a failure: After trying for two weeks to get a guild meeting going to set up the Charter (or, Rules), Registration, and more, he simply left WoW the day after Laobr Day. (Note: Never—and I mean DO NOT EVER—start a clan or guild before something time-consuming like school starts.) A week and a half passed, and "Suda" went back to the alias of "Sir Trekie," taking up RuneScape again.

Half a week after Sir Trekie left WoW, Obashardi decided to reform ELITE for the third (but really the fourth) try. For about three weeks, ELITE became somewhat large, again, with "31 members," according to Chaos Al. About halfway through was when Sir Trekie came back to RuneScape, and saw for himself how things were going. He was given warm welcomes back, and an invitation to rejoin the clan. Hesitant at first, Sir Trekie soon warmed up to the idea of playing RuneScape, so he joined. Almost immediately after, he saw that this wasn't the same clan that he had envisioned a year ago. He witnessed Obashardi almost oppressing the clan members, being skeptical of members who had decided to join Koramon's clan, such as Chaos Al, among others. The ELITE was abruptly cut off due to a sudden loss of members (which Sir Trekie still doesn't understand), with the clan chat being effectively turned off for an unknown period of time.

This is the fifth version of the Entrusted Leaders In Thwarting Enemies. Based on the founding ideas that Sir Trekie had behind the first version of ELITE, this reformation was started in order to make ELITE the best it can be. One of our goals is to stop the in-fighting and make a truly good clan. ...
