The [HOP] House of Pain Clan was
founded May 12, 1997 by Lord Velen, who later changed his name
to Sp|tf|re. [HOP] has been a clan for many years and is very
powerful with it's members and leaders. When Lord Velen
founded [HOP], it took him about a year to get it up and
running with members, which was consisted of his most trusted
friends and the only game that was played was Diaspora (until
it was shut down). Then we started to look into other games
and Half-Life, TFC, Unreal Tournament, and Quake 3 popped up.
After the clan had its first war in TFC, which of course they
won, the [HOP] members were becoming confident, including Lord
Velen, of their new clan. [HOP]'s old logo was [HOP]...(name
of members) until TFC's update patch dissalowed the use of
three periods. Then, [HOP] had a clan meeting and the High
Council (now known as the Captain rank) had decided that the
new clan insignea would be [HOP] and it still is. Everyone
that is a frequent player of TFC will know the clan name [HOP]
House of Pain because it has become a symbol of real gaming.
Last year, [HOP] had expanded it's territory to many other
multiplayer games and continues to grace the servers of
the old games. [HOP] will continue to dominate games because
of the strength and integrity of their clan leaders which will
lead the way for the coming generation of gamers, which means
that we will never quit, no matter how hard the task at hand
is.
