VIPer Inc. ™

Family: On December 17th, we celebrated our 1 year anniversary! Thank you to all that have been with us from the beginning and to those of you that have joined us along the way! What a year it has been. We have had our share of ups and downs...lost a few...and gained a hell of a lot more! To all of you, this family would not be what it is today without you. Thank you for everything! This Civil War was a way of bringing the old and new together in a fun way and to celebrate our one year anniversary! With all of you, I know that this crew will remain strong and keep fighting the good fight in the game. Each one of you have become a part of my virtual family and have helped Zone and I to see our vision come to life in a way we didn't know possible. My respect and love to each of you. ~*Solana*~

I would like to thank Solana for all her hard work that she does. This is a very time consuming job. Her dedication to the family is the heart and soul of  VIPer Inc. For without her this family wouldn't be what it is today. She is very appreciated by all. Besides her awesome personality she is a straight killer. She doesn't half step anything she does. Solana is VIPer strong!!!

Thanks again, Sol

This month, VIPer Inc.™ is granting several VIP awards! Due to the heavy game involvement we have had as of late, VIPer Management has fallen slightly behind on handing out VIP awards! The hard work put in by so many of you has NOT gone unnoticed. Although VIPer Management would like to extend VIP awards to all active members, we have narrowed down the selections. In no particular order, VIPer Management and Officers award 60 GF points to the following players:

Ez2Hate has been an incredible asset to the family. Even though Ez’s primary family is the Hated crew, Ez has provided VIPers with links to opposing crews and has even “donated” some of his non-VIPer accounts by temporarily changing his name in game during war time. Ez’s friendship to our family has been both beneficial and welcomed. Even more than that though, Ez is a great person and adds some serious fire to our crew. He may be Ez2Hate for some but to the VIPer crew, he is definitely Ez2Like and even Ez2Love. Congrats, Ez! Enjoy your points!

Darren joined VIPer Inc.™ back in February 2010. Since then, Darren has done a great deal of work for the family. He has been a VIPer “spy” and an aggressive player in the game. Darren might not be as active in Pal as he once was, but he is still as active as ever in the game. Darren has proven to be a loyal and honorable family member and VIPer Inc.™ could not be more pleased to have him on board! Congrats to you, Darren!

Willis, who was in the now defunct La Familia Azteca with Solana and other family members, joined VIPer Inc.™ in February 2010. Even after resetting a few times and only being limited to in-game conversations, Willis has hung tough with the VIPer family. Although Willis is one of VIPer Inc.’s youngest players, Willis has shown great heart and a feisty spirit! He has given us memorable moments in the game with his “Willis-isms” and good-natured humor, but if any opponent thinks he is weak…they better think again. Willis is growing up and growing into his own; a true VIPer. Congratulations, Willis! Well deserved!

Justin joined the family soon after VIPer Inc.™ severed ties with LF. He first joined by giving the family one of his baby accounts, but proved to be a great friend to the family by donating his big account during wartime while his former crew, The Hoods, was running in camp mode. Since then, Justin officially left The Hoods and has been made General of his own sub-division of VIPer Inc.™, Special Ops. Several ex-Hoods members have followed him because of his ability to lead and his activeness in the game. Justin is another example of a die-hard gamer and overall, nice guy. Justin has been another asset to the VIPer family and his hard work is proven time and time again! Congratulations, Justin!

Semperfi, Captain of Iron Grenadiers, joined VIPer Inc.™ in its very early days. Two weeks after VIPer Inc.™ was founded, Semperfi joined the family as a member in the ranks. His willingness to war and his ongoing presence in the family allowed VIPer Management to easily give him a top position within the crew. Semperfi has consistently been a hard hitter and has even pulled in his lower level accounts to do some major HLing. He has been a consistent team player and has whole-heartedly taken on any crew who crosses our path. Semperfi is a valuable member and contributor to this family and we are happy to have him. Way to go, Semperfi! You are respected and well-deserving!

Lady, Sergeant of Iron Grenadiers, joined VIPer Inc.™ in January 2010. When Zone approached her about joining in December 2009, Lady had her own questions for him. She wanted to know how joining VIPer Inc.™ would benefit her. At the time, Zone and Solana shrugged and jokingly said to each other, “We don’t know”. All Zone and Solana knew was that they wanted to make VIPer Inc.™ a true mob family and something about Lady’s feisty way s let them know they wanted her to join. Since that time, Lady has become an integral part of the family. Not only is she a hardcore gamer but through the months, she has also become a confidante and friend to Solana; as well as being a devoted to the family. Congratulations, Lady!

Heavy, one of the newest members of VIPer Inc.™ and in the sub-division team, Special Ops, has jumped right into the VIPer way of doing things; fighting hard, dying on the HL, and a social player. Since joining the family in October 2010, Heavy has been noted as being one of the most vigilant players in the crew. Since joining mid-way during the war with the Ballers and subsequently, the war with DC and FN, Heavy has put in a lot of time and energy in the game. His massive amount of work has impressed VIPer Management so much, that we believe that he is deserving of this award. Welcome aboard once again, Heavy. Thank you for all you have done for your team and for the VIPer family!

Shark joined the VIPer Inc.™ crew as a member of the sub-division team, Ninja Division. Since joining in September 2010, Shark has been an active member in the game and in the family chat. Shark has been heavy hitter and his name is fitting! VIPer Management has seen screenshot after screenshot of his multiple kills and direct attacks. Even though Shark has only been with the family for a short amount of time, his dedication to both his sub-division and the entire family has made him a welcomed addition to the crew. Congratulations, Shark!

Bundy, who also joined VIPer Inc.™ crew as a member of the sub-division team, Ninja Division, has been a wonderful addition to the family. He has bonded well with the family and has brought in a significant amount of Aussies to the mob crew. Bundy joined the family in September 2010 as well, with the merge of The Untraceables and VIPer Inc.™. Since his joining, Bundy has been an active gamer and is both well-liked and respected in the family. He, along with others, has warred hard and consistently since his joining. Bundy is yet one more example of what it is to be in this family and this award is a small token of VIPer Management’s respect. Congrats, Bundy!

NEO joined VIPer Inc.™ six days after its launch date. Real time life and work have kept NEO busy, but he’s faithfulness and friendship has been consistent. When time permits, NEO has been a strong player for the family. Screenshots of his previous work are noted on the website and he has moved up through the ranks to Lieutenant in the Cobra Elite team. NEO has been and continues to be a valued family member and his commitment to VIPer Inc.™ is noteworthy. He will be reaching his one year anniversary with the family in December and VIPer Management is more than happy to show their appreciation to him. Congratulations, NEO!

MagNI joined VIPer Inc. most recently as a member of the sub-division team, Special Ops. Since he has joined, MagNI has put in a tremendous amount of work. Because of all his efforts and countless screenshots, VIPer Inc. is pleased to award MagNI as another winner this month. MagNI might not be a big Pal talker, but he has been a non-stop presence in the game. VIPer Inc. could not be happier to have him on board! Congrats, MagNI!

Honorable Mention: Cheeky joined the family in September 2010 as a recruit courtesy of Bundy. She joined VIPer Inc.™ mid-way through the war with the Ballers and has since been active in the smaller wars that have followed. Cheeky, another welcomed Aussie, has been producing screenshot after screenshot of direct attacks and kills. VIPer Management has been extremely pleased with the increasing amount of Aussies added to the family but not simply because of the numbers, but because of their gumption and lively spirit. Cheeky is a force to be reckoned with and VIPer Management recognizes her contributions. Great job, Cheeky! Another strong VIPer female in the family!

VIPer Officers and Management wish to thank all active members for their contributions to the family and their loyalty. As I have always said, without you, VIPer Inc.™ would not be the true iMob family that it is.

Much respect!

It’s been some time since the website has been updated with news. This is mainly due to all the activity that VIPer Inc.™ has gone through both in the game and within the family.

After some consideration, VIPer management decided to take a chance on former foe Phantom. Before allowing him in, management gave him a warning that if he did anything shady the family would go after his account. Phantom again requested to be a part of the family and the good-natured VIPer crew welcomed him in. Phantom had plans of his own though. He was attempting to coordinate a massive multi-family attack on the crew and was going to “attempt” to take down VIPer Inc.™ from within. Not realizing that VIPers have many unknown associates in the game, Phantom’s plan was stopped in its tracks before it ever began. With all the intel that was needed, VIPers coordinated an attack on all those who were part of Phantom’s “secret” group of alliances.

VIPer Inc.™ marked the enemies and launched direct attacks against four of the five families in his alliance group. Whether or not they supported Phantom or not, they were hit until they pulled out of the pal room and told Phantom they were out. The old saying held true for the crew; “Strike first, ask questions later”.

The first crew to take a hit was the MM crew. VIPers went in and pummeled that crew. Within two hours, Solana had the first post on her wall saying that they wanted no part of VIPer Inc. and were bailing out. With none of the other crews jumping in to take some of the heat of them, MM Leader Bkneff demanded to know where the support was (ss available on ss page).

Within the first two hours of the war, Phantom dropped his VIPer tags and picked up new ones. He apparently was already a member of NWO. During this time, VIPers began hitting NWO as well. With Big Al being the biggest tool in the game, he reduced himself to using racial slurs and profanity against Solana in Pal. Liking the sound of his own voice, Al harassed Solana in Pal for two days. Not biting at his racial slurs, Big Al finally did the only thing any gamer in Imobs could ask for….he shut the hell up.

The next crew to take VIPer hits was a crew called the Wolf Pack. After a short day of direct attacks and HLing, Wolf Pack pulled out of the secret alliance Pal room and called it quits. To this day, Solana gets taken down off of the HL by WP members who want a little bit of retribution for the attacks. All in good fun, Solana and WP members have bantered in the game about a future “snake vs. wolf” war.

After Wolf Pack, The Paragon and MIA were the next two families to be hit. With hits going out on The Paragon and MIA, they too only lasted around two days before pulling out. MIA bosses messaged Solana in pal and she was told that they were out and would pull out of the room immediately. The Paragon was next to drop out. They too did not support Phantom and his efforts against VIPers.

In the end, poor Phantom was left standing alone and today, remains a permanent target for the family. Although still carrying the NWO tags, Phantom has not been seen or heard from since.

One of the major changes to have happened most recently, was the absorption of The Untraceables. This group was led by Foghorn and was comprised of former Redrum members and newer additions. After much discussion and clearing of the air, it was agreed that The Untraceables would be an asset to the family. After creating a new division, Foghorn’s team became known as the Ninja Division under the VIPer Inc.™ umbrella. The addition brought in an additional 15 gamers to the VIPer family and have shown true heart during the “8 Ball Brawl” that is currently underway. Screenshot page to be updated soon.

Thanks to all the family for your continued support and to the new additions of the crew!

06/21/10: After camping for a little more than a month, VIPer Inc. ™ decided to embark on a new adventure within the game. For the first time since VIPer Inc’s.™ existence, the family scouted out a family to begin warring with. The scout, who will remain nameless on the website, conducted some diligent research and produced enough intel for the VIPer family to construct an organized attack. At exactly 9:30AM CST, VIPers marked their targets and came out guns blazing against one of the largest crew in iMobsters, the Hazard Mob. With no provocation, VIPers decided it was time to war with a worthy opponent and Harzard Mob was the target.

An unsuspecting Hazard crew was jolted from their peaceful camping by massive HLs and direct attacks from the VIPer crew. The Hazard crew was not prepared for the onslaught of VIPer attacks and it took several of their family members days to gear up to fight back. Hazard Mob proved to be the worthy adversary we hoped they would be. With a strong family unit, Hazard Mob demonstrated they are as tight as the VIPers. With a lot of playful banter, espionage, tossing onto the HL and direct attacks, Hazard Mob and VIPers engaged in what might be one of the most amusing wars in iMobster history. With both sides playing the game as it should be played, VIPers and Hazard Mob participated in a week long battle of farming and killing off the HL.

Hazard’s Level 200 gamer, Ace, approached Solana seeking a truce on 06/24/10. Ace proposed a 06/25/10 at 5PM stand-down. Solana countered the offer with a 06/28/10 at 9:30AM deal. Since there were no hard feelings that went into this war or hard feelings coming out of it, Ace and Solana worked out the deal in the game since Pal was on the fritz. At the end of the war, both crews walked away with a lot of hugs and handshakes. Not many wars end this way, but that shows that there are crews out there that like playing the game for what it is…a game. Ace demonstrated the biggest gesture of friendship after the war; inviting VIPers to farm his post-war camping account. Much respect to Ace for such a generous gesture.

To Fern and the Hazard Mob: Thank you for playing the game with us and for having a crew that knows what it’s all about. Your crew has proven to be the most worthy crew that we have battled this far; not because of strength or bigger accounts but because your crew knows that game is meant to be played for fun and play it that way. Much respect! 

Long live mobbietown!

Late March 2010 thru May 2010: VIPer Inc. ™ decided to take a leap of faith and join a union of families called La Famiglia. Solid Hits, The Turks, Takedown and Carnage were the first four families to join. After a test run of our active members, VIPer Inc. ™ showed up with 66/70 members and were invited to join as the fifth family. Soon after joining, the “War with the Boar” commenced. After fighting them for two months, La Famiglia and the God Farmers called a mutual truce and walk-away.

Towards the tail end of that war, La Famiglia was engaged in an additional war against The Union. The Union consists of 357, Viral Syndicate (VS), and The Hoods. With no break in warring, La Famiglia fought for another month against The Union. After several discussions and the conclusion that no one would be giving up, another mutual truce was achieved. During that war, VIPers made some good friends and personal alliances.

After much discussion and careful consideration, Zone and Solana came to the decision that VIPer Inc.™ wanted to remain an independent mob and take some time to work on the VIPer Inc. ™ crew. Although VIPers made a lot of friends and acquaintances, it was time to say goodbye. With no hard feelings and much respect for La Famiglia, VIPer Inc.™ is back on its own.

To all the VIPers: Thank you for your willingness to war for 12 weeks and for sticking it out. During the course of that war, VIPers only lost one member, while our opponents lost several. There is a lot to be said about VIPers and their commitment to the family…truly unmatched by all.

To all of La Famiglia: It was our honor and our privilege to fight alongside you. VIPer Inc.™ truly appreciates your camaraderie and your spirit. We wish all of you nothing but success and the best; both in your personal lives and in the game. Respect to you all!

04/30/2010: VIPer Inc.™ awarded the April 2010 VIP award to Eyelash VIPer! During our “War with the Boar” aka God Farmer War, Eyelash displayed true VIPer spirit! Eyelash was mass HLing and knocking boars off the HL like a true killer! She may not have the highest level account, but her dedication to the team and to the VIPer family truly displayed what a loyal crew member can do. Eyelash’s wonderful personality and spirit exemplify what VIPers are all about.

This may be late in posting, but congratulations once again Eyelash! You are without a doubt a valuable player every day of the week! You rock! I hope you enjoyed your GF points and your award. You make us all proud!

03/31/2010: VIPer Inc.™ is pleased to announce the March 2010 VIP winner! Dad VIPer (previously known as Water) was nominated to be the March winner! Dad was selected for his fun wartime antics and his dedication to the family! Dad has shown that he is a force to be reckoned with during wartime while having a good time doing it!

Dad has previously taken on other player names to cause the havoc and confusion we all love during war. Dad has portrayed the role of Stinkerbelle and Solana during our Valentine's Day War and Handsom Al during the VIPer Civil War non-war! Although there were reprecussions for taking on those names during the wars, Dad knows that war is war but good times should be had at all times!

Congratulations, Dad! You are a valued player and without you, we might have missed out on some good laughs and good times! You're awesome! Enjoy your 60 GF points and your award! You deserve it!

Much respect,

Zone, Mamba, Power & Solana

03/2010: VIPer Inc. wages war against VMA! After a short duration of idleness in the game, VIPer Inc. waged war over the snake! In the end though, what was to be considered a Civil War against VMA turned out to be flat. VMA refused to fight back and VIPers were left shooting at sitting ducks. This war ended becoming the "Non-War War" for VIPer Inc., but still allowed the family to get together once again to have fun in the game.

Thanks to all the VIPers who geared up for this one-sided war!

02/14/2010: On Valentine’s Day, many VIPers woke up to a barrage of HLs and direct attacks. Not knowing for sure where they were coming from and why, VIPers began the task of packing up their tents and gearing up for the war that was about to ensue.

VIPers battled a fierce mob group called the Body Snatchers and two days into the war, Carnage, another mob family, joined in on the side of the Body Snatchers and began HLing and direct attacking the VIPer family as well.

The VIPer family hung in there for six long days. On the 5th day, Carnage management approached Zone and Solana about discussing a merger between the VIPers and Carnage. Although Carnage is a powerful mob family in their own right, VIPer Inc.™ refused Carnage’s offer. Respecting our decision, Carnage called a stalemate and withdrew their family from the war with the exception of their big gun, Haze.

On day six, a mutual walk-away was agreed to by VIPer Inc.™ and the Body Snatchers. Zone and Chopper (BS Leader) agreed in the game that we were stalemated. VIPer Inc.™ was not going to back down from the fight and was willing to continue battling on, but it was apparent there would be no clear cut winner. After a round of congratulations on a well fought battle, VIPer Inc.™ walked away with the knowledge that we had successfully taken on two strong mob families on our own.

NO COMPROMISING. NO SURRENDER.

To all the VIPer members who took direct hits, were farmed, were HL’d countless times and played the game to the best of their abilities, VIPer Inc.™ Management congratulates and celebrates you being a part of the family.
