Hey Vicers! Ever wondered how our amazing community came to be? Buckle up, because we're taking a trip down memory lane, right back to where it all began in the wild world of Grand Theft Auto Online!
Our story kicks off in 2013 with a small band of just 10 dedicated players in Grand Theft Auto Online. It wasn't easy at first; getting new members to join the crew was a real grind! But even then, the passion for gaming and community was clear.
Later that year, we even put out our very first promo video on Xbox 360. It was rough around the edges, but it showed our spirit and early days!

Things started heating up in 2014! Rockstar Games themselves noticed our growing crew and gave us a shout-out! This was a huge moment, putting us on the map.
With this newfound recognition, we absolutely BLEW UP! 🎉 Our promo videos got a major upgrade, showing off our expanded crew and improved style.

To keep our growing community connected, we launched our Original Forums at https://vccm.freeforums.net. It was the hub before the Discord era!
2015 brought even more incredible moments! Our members started meeting in real life, making it to the front page of Reddit and even Rockstar's website! This truly highlighted the strength of our bonds.
And then Plenty More Followed

And thenWe were featured YET AGAIN by ROCKSTAR GAMES, coinciding with the exciting launch of our PC Group! This expanded our reach even further.
The years between 2016 and 2019 marked a major evolution for our community. We dove headfirst into the creative gaming space, largely thanks to the powerful tools in the Rockstar GTA Creator. This gave us the ammunition to design and build our own unique experiences.
Our official promos from this time captured the energy and spirit of our tight-knit group.

Our game nights were legendary, spanning not just GTA but other titles like Halo, leading to some hilarious and unforgettable moments.

By 2020, a vibrant subgroup of creatives within the community formed the Creators World Server, which eventually blossomed into what we now know as Vice Creators. This marked a significant expansion beyond just gaming.
Finally, in 2022, the gaming and creative groups officially merged into one larger, unified collective: The VICERS! This brought together all aspects of our diverse community under one powerful banner.

The journey hasn't always been smooth. In early 2024, the community faced a major turning point. Internal conflicts led to a huge implosion and a mass exodus of members, shaking the foundation of what we had built. It was a challenging time that could have been the end of our story.
However, from the ashes of conflict comes rebirth. Our leader made a crucial decision to pivot and redefine our purpose. This wasn't an ending, but a transformation. The community has since been reforged with a brand-new, more inclusive vision.
