3v0luti0n_X (3v0, also sometimes spelled "3v0lution_X") was a clan founded in 2005, and is notable for being one of the top clans in 2007, as well as the clan of Durial321, the player responsible for the Falador Massacre on 6 June 2006. An alliance between 3v0 and WG was formed in August 2007, and lasted until the clan's closure in May 2009.

History

3v0 was founded on or around 15 March 2005[1] as a US Central-based F2P and P2P clan. Slinger X, Sharpiesmurf, and Miss Diggler were the original leaders, with Torreoria and Prospa joining the leadership team in 2007.[2] 3v0 was a largely central-American clan, and focused on both F2P and P2P multi, though they also hosted a range of skilling and fun events. Durial321, the player responsible for the Falador Massacre in 2006 was a member of 3v0, albeit on a new account after Durial321 was permanently banned. 3v0 also had alliances with Golden Elites and Elite Order.[3]

3v0 saw most of their major success in 2007, being considered to have "come out of nowhere" as one of the top P2P clans during the summer, and having over 100 members. They developed a rivalry with another top clan, The Stricken Cards[4], and on 6 December 2007 3v0 and TSC fought a 4 hour and 30 minute P2P war, which TSC claimed to have been the longest P2P fight in RuneScape history at the time. 3v0 outpulled with around 76 members to TSC's 71, though TSC ultimately proved victorious.[5]

3v0 is also known to have fought and defeated other top clans including Damage Incorporated and Reign of Terror. Their alliance with GE is of note - joint trips under the moniker "G3" resulted in several large-scale fights against WG[6], RoT[7], and others throughout 2006 and 2007. 3v0 would defeat WG multiple times in P2P prior to the formation of the alliance.[8]

Alliance

An alliance between 3v0 and WG was formed in August 2007. This started with a joint PK trip, in which WG and 3v0 would fight RoT and TSC, though the battles were considered unclean due to 1-iteming and WG and 3v0 left the Wilderness.[9]

The relationship was considerably successful through to the end of 2007, and several videos exist of joint PK trips and wars between the two clans. 3v0 was considered by some members to be significantly stronger than WG - being able to allegedly pull 4 times the amount of WG members to an allied event.[10] 3v0 also competed against WG in the 2007 Skill Olympics.

3v0's success began to dimish noticeably in early 2008. This started with leadership issues resulting in Durial321 and several high-ranking members leaving, along with a large portion of their member base. 3v0's memberlist had dropped to 41 by 23 February 2008.[11] By May of 2008 they had recovered somewhat - having around 70 members with a combat level average of 120 - though no allied events had taken place for a while, despite WG's offers.[12] However as 2008 progressed, the alliance's activity improved with several joint events. These included some friendly Clan Wars fights between 3v0 and WG, in which it was made clear that 3v0's PvP skill remained significant, despite the losses in numbers.[13] The last known allied event was a P2P clan wars run-in on or around 4 October 2008, which WG won.[14]

In early 2009, 3v0 encountered internal issues which were described as a "civil war", the result of which was the formation of the exodus Zero Tolerance, led by former 3v0 leader Torreoria - though 3v0 continued to exist under Miss Diggler's leadership. By March of 2009, the alliance had been inactive for around 5 months and its status was called into question by WG members.[15] It is unclear when the alliance with 3v0 formally ended - however, His Lordship had been informed of the split with ZT as it occurred, and had shown support to Torreoria. As a result, the ZT warlord offered WG an alliance on 30 April 2009, which WG accepted on 22 May 2009.[16]

Post-Alliance

An attempt was made to revive 3v0 in early 2009[17], which included a merge with another clan known only as "IL" in June 2009.[18] This iteration of 3v0 is believed to have been unsucessful.
