Quote - "In July 1996, I came across a website one day, put together by
Moebius of the Red Dragons, that listed CLANS ... listed them with graphics and a
description of each clan, one by one. It was a very tedious process for Moebius. Moebius
and the Red Dragons where THE clan resources back then. RD-Moebius did a terrific job and
I wouldn't have started Quake Clan Ring without him" Will
Bryant ID Software 12/22/96 on the creation of clans
Quote - "It was so odd the way it happened, the
formation of clans, internally, we at ID software had talked about clans of warriors
forming after we released quake, we never talked publicly about it, and to have the same
terminology apparently spontaneously evolve in the user community was pretty weird.
I love it!" John Carmack ID Software

Quote - "I got back from Japan right after Quake 1
Shareware came out, and there were maybe a dozen clans, like the Red Dragons, The Amish
and some others. I didn't think that clans would go so far as they have." Founder - Impulse 9, Early Quake Pioneers |
In July of 1996 the Red
Dragons were formed. A handful of new players to quake started a "Clan" and soon
ID Software's Will Bryant took notice and that term became adopted throughout the Quake
World. ClanRing was introduced by ID software and the Red Dragons were inducted into the
Clan Hall of Fame at ID Software. In September of 1997 the Red Dragons began playing
Ultima Online. Our gaming fraternity has grown to other gaming realms and thousands of RD
members have gone through our ranks. The Red Dragons have become a legendary fraternity of
worldwide gamers. To all who have come and gone we say "thank you." Many have
left a legacy behind them. Some have gone off to college and some have gotten married and
relocated. Whatever the case may be, remember, once a Red Dragon, always a Red Dragon! Redkiller |
