In January 2011 Vio, the Historian of WG at the time, recieved a temporary suspension from the clan for an unrelated issue. After offering and rescinding his resignation, he reached an agreement with WG staff to leave for an indefinite period. Around this time, Jagex had announced the "re-release" of the Wilderness, reverting PvP to near it's original state prior to the updates on 10 December 2007. Having previously founded and led a number of moderately successful clans before joining WG in 2009, Vio chose to found a new clan once again. TBK opened around 1 February 2011.
Although not intended as an exodus from WG, TBK recieved a number of former WG members including former warlord WG Justin. Within 2 months of opening, TBK had over 50 members, which was more than WG at the time - though WG had better levels and significantly more experience. An important factor in TBK's numbers was a merge between TBK and another small clan, The Vigilantes. The merged clan retained the name and attributes of TBK, though grew considerably in size, and the TV leader Madz was given a staff rank - much to the displeasure of a number of the original TBK members.
TBK was initially on considerably peaceful terms with WG. Members of the two clans would attend the other clan's raids, and on at least one occasion the clans met in the Wilderness without engaging in a fight.
