I don't know how to tell you, this, guys. The reason ENJ "died" (I prefer to think of it as retired) was because you all abandoned it. I know, I left too, but that was only because I could no longer lead a clan. I simply don't have the time or patience. Nor will I sit back and watch you people just abuse it. The only reason I am joining FoU is because, back when I first started ENJ, I decided that if for some strange reason, I left ENJ, this is where I belonged. These are my friends and I couldn't imagine being in any othe clan. I left ENJ because I realized that it was no longer the same clan it started out as. Those people who created it no longer cared or no longer could support such a small clan that needed full attention. I realized ENJ was dying. I realized that I had started it to be in a clan with my closest friends on JK2. I left because I realized that the people in the clan, those who were left, were no longer my closest friends. And those who were my friends had abandoned me. I have been friends with FoU for almost a year. For almost a year, I have gotten know almost every FoUster well. I don't want to be in FoU for a tag. I don't want to be in so I can feel like I'm part of a big important group. I want to be here because these are my friends. They stood by me. FoU supported ENJ better some members of ENJ did. Everytime someone who barely knows FoU askes to join, I feel like they are doing it for the wrong reasons. They are doing it for a tag, a name. They don't know everyone, they don't share that bond. For a long time, I was confortable hanging out with FoU and wearing the ENJ tag. I didn't care that my tag was different from their's. I don't even see the tags anymore. It's the name after the tag that matters. The tag is just a way of finding each other. A way for others to know when they are messing with one, they mess with the entire group of friends. This isn't directed at Veg. Lee, I know you tried. I know you were loyal to ENJ until the end. You are definitely one of the reasons ENJ was founded. My anger is directed at those who ask to join FoU without even knowing them. Without understanding the bond between the members of this clan. Before you put on the tag, before you are a formal member, you must become a member at heart. Once you put on that tag, it shouldn't matter. The rest of FoU will already know you are in, they think of you as one of them before you put on that tag. FoU is not the only clan. But no one ever tries to join other clans anymore. Before long it will be. It will be everyone who plays 1.02. There will be no tournies because there will be no one to hold them against. And FoU will be full of people, all good people, who don't know each other. Who don't know every other FoUster. FoU is a family, a community, and a union. Everyone is connected to everyone else. That's where I feel I belong. But there are many of you who don't realize, this may not be where you belong. You must understand, you are part of a whole, and your actions touch every single FoUster.So think long and hard before you ask to join FoU. Before you abandon any clan. And before you make a mistake that can't be fixed. There have been those who joined and it didn't work out. They are banned. Excommunicated. They are no longer allowed near FoU. You screw up, you may be screwed forever.

I wanted to join ENJ a while back, but the person who did the testing had already quit. It's a shame to hear that ENJ retired, u guys had a sweet site and u guys seemed friendly.
