Issue 07 is here and it seems that ComSect is finally starting to get itself back together thanks to everyone who was a part of this issue, especially the new writers, guest writers, and the continuing “vets.” A special shout out to ReconPace for his hard work with internal re-cruiting which made this issue possible. So here it is, enjoy guys.

Hello fellow
DeathBringers, Hex
here. As most of you
know, and all of you
should know, The
DeathBringers are a
clan that are strictly
against hacking, mod-
ding, cheating, and any
other form of activity
which will give you an
unfair advantage in the
game. Some of you may
say, Well what is the
point of that? We at
DBC think you should
actually have to work to
achieve something,
rather than just have it
handed to you. If you
hack and get all the at-
tachments for a gun, or
to that rank you really
want, then you didn‟t
work for it. Having said
that, I‟d like to bring up
the point that over the
past week or so, we‟ve
had a few cases of Chal-
lenge Lobbies in Mod-
ern Warfare 2. Some
people think that these
shouldn‟t be considered
an unfair advantage,
because they don‟t
change your rank in
most cases. Wrong. The
challenge lobbies give
you all the titles and
emblems our players
strive for, and all the
attachments on the guns
that people have to
work for. They are a
bannable offense here at
DBC. Don‟t try and
hide the fact that you
have done them, be-
cause the Military Po-
lice and I will find you,
and we will get you.
Another point I would
like to bring up is re-
specting the CoC
(Chain of Command).
Every one of you has a
person over you. If a
person over you tells
you to do something,
you follow suit. You
don‟t argue what they
have said. If a member
of the High Command
tells you to stop doing
something, you do so
immediately, not carry
on doing so, and tell the
HC they are wrong in
their order. This is con-
sidered insubordination,
and is another offense
that won‟t be tolerated.
Minor cases of insubor-
dination can land you a
simple infraction. Me-
dium to major cases can
get you even worse,
possibly a temporary
ban from DBC, or if
deemed necessary, a
permanent ban. If you
are insubordinate to a
person that you are sup-
posed to work under, it
is up to them what ac-
tion they take, maybe
they let it slide, or
maybe they fire you and
tell you to have a good
day. And finally, I‟d
like to bring up the is-
sue of dotting (using . or
… to mark you as an
active user) in the chat-
box. We only have 'X'
amount of bandwidth to
share between all active
users, and the recent
reduction in the time a
member remains active
in the chatbox saves us
a significant amount of
bandwidth to share be-
tween the actually ac-
tive members in the
chatbox, allowing it to
run much smoother for
those active chatters.
When you are on the
Active User list, you are
using bandwidth.
Hex’s Journal: The Good, The Bad, and The Banned
The Good, The Bad, and The Banned Cont.
If you are not going to
be an active participant
in the conversations go-
ing on, please do not dot
the box, just use the F5
button on your key-
board, or click the re-
fresh button Doing this
will allow your chatbox
to keep updating, with-
out placing you on the
Active User list and
stealing bandwidth from
those members actually
using the bandwidth to
hold discussions. That‟s
it for this month guys,
maybe you‟ll see me
back another month
with more news on clan
rules and helpful re-
minders to keep you
out. of trouble. Peace.

November 9th, 2010, the day
the world changes for the
sake of humanity!
Yeah, as we all know, Black
Ops & Medal of Honor is
coming out very, very soon
and a lot of people are look-
ing forward to this upgrade
in technology as they say,
mainly due to the dedicated
servers it holds, and the abil-
ity to actually kick people
they wish to kick. Now, this
means there will be a lot less
wall hacking, and a lot less
aim botting, and a lot less of
everything, but is this what
we really want?
I spoke with a few people
about this topic, through my
very own clan, and random
bystanders in the game, and
most reported that they are in
favor of this dedicated serv-
ers, and better game play for
a lot of reasons, and one be-
ing, yup you guessed it, dedi-
cated servers!! I spoke with
them for this little discus-
sion, and ask the more de-
tailed questions, if they
wanted the old style of MW1
& MW2 to be implied into
Black Ops, and they said no,
because MW2 was a pretty
awful game play! I ignored
the, and ended up noob-
tubing that entire game, I
went 19-5. Now, when the
MW2 branch came out, and
the day the servers were re-
leased, 26 minutes after
those servers were open to
the public, there were al-
ready wall hacking, and
game boosting happening,
and I believe it was hours
later, that people were al-
ready being banned! That‟s
crazy, and seeing how every-
one is anticipated for the
release of Black Ops along
with Medal of Honor, I am
honestly afraid of turning
that game on, and watching
the problems occur, and yes
they have dedicated servers,
but it‟s still going to happen,
and it‟s still going to be a
problem no matter how
much they try to stop it. Yet
the downfall to this
„dedicated servers‟ is, that
they are only provided by
one provider, which is
GameServers, so if they back
out, we‟re all done for! Oh
and they cost money for the
servers, due to the only pro-
vider, they can charge, it‟s
not much though, around $15
USD.
I want to end this article with
a good note, and something
you guys can look forward
too! The game will have
Dedicated Servers, the game
play will have more quality,
the game play will have
more options and modes, for
hours of play, and they will
have competitive sections for
team parties! The list can go
on and on, but I‟m going to
leave you with this, and hope
you buy it for your PC, PS3
or Xbox!
I dedicate this news article to
the famous ReconPace! He
has been there for me for
everything, he has also re-
cruited me to this wonderful
clan, where I hope to further
with everyone, and become
good friends with most of the
people! He was effected by
these hackers very person-
ally, and I feel that is bull!
So Recon, this is for you!
Thanks!

I‟ve heard the
expressions,
“You look like
you‟ve seen a
ghost” before.
Hell I‟ve even
used it myself,
but I never really
felt that way
until today. To-
day I did see a
ghost. Ok he
wasn‟t really a
ghost, but he
damn well
should be. Let
me explain.
I was on sentry duty, I hate
it, but I do it to the best of
my ability. There‟s an un-
written rule about sentry
duty, if someone sneaks up
on you and touch you with-
out you noticing them, you
pull their sentry duty, if you
catch them first, they pull
your next shift. I‟ve only had
to work another‟s shift once.
Strangely enough he was the
same guy who gave me the
name Arc. His was Wraith,
and he earned that name. He
could enter and leave our
compound at will and no one
ever knew how. About a
month after he gave me my
name, I was on sentry duty.
Suddenly there was a tap on
my shoulder and I damn near
jumped out my skin.
“Take my next shift Arc, I‟ll
see you when I get back.”
He never came back, until
today. I was on sentry duty,
been out there maybe an
hour. I don‟t walk a set path,
I don‟t scan to a set pattern.
Patterns make you lazy and
you miss things. Keeping it
random helps keep me alert.
I don‟t know what caught my
attention, but suddenly
something wasn‟t just right
on the ground in front of me.
Then he stood up and
brushed himself off.
“You‟ve gotten better Arc,
I‟m impressed. I guess I have
your next shift.”
And with that Wraith just
walked past me and into the
compound like he only been
gone a day and not years.
I caught up to him after my
shift was done and we talked
like to old friends. Turns out
that he has special orders that
allow him to come and go as
be pleases. He went AWOL
when he was back home a
few years before coming
here. Turns out that he got
word some how that a group
of extremist had kidnapped a
High Ranking General‟s
daughter and were trying to
blackmail him. Wraith spent
6 months tracking them
down. He got the girl out
safe and back to her father
and then spent another year
tracking down all the mem-
bers of the group. When he
was done, he presented him-
self to the General for court
martial, but he gave the Gen-
eral a box for his defense.
Inside were the hands of
every member of the group
that had kidnapped the girl.
Wraith told him that they
would never touch anyone
else child again.
He was given choice of de-
ployment, but he chose this
hell hole. So the General
gave him special orders to
allow him to come and go as
he wished. Well he went and
I have no idea how he sur-
vived, but he did. He‟s seen
more of this place than any-
one else that ever been here.
He‟s learned things about
this place and the things that
call it home.
He told stories about what
he‟s seen in the bar and
drank for free. Oh he tried to
by a round but everyone that
was listening wouldn‟t let
him. I think that it will be a
while before anyone does let
him buy a drink, if he still
has more to tell. As long as
he‟s been gone, I‟m sure that
he has stories to tell for some
time to come. For I‟m going
to get some sleep. I have
Sentry Duty with Wraith at
0600. He said he would do it
himself, but 2 sets of eyes
are better than one. Besides,
I wanna see if he can teach
me to be that damn sneaky.

Riddler’s Rant
have been older and “wiser.” This is where my problem lies, I do not be-lieve that people can base an as-sumption that someone does not know what they are talking about simply upon an age and experi-ence correlation. I have always been a more mature and intelligent person than my peers, and have dabbled in de-bates and made my opinion heard, but to no avail there is always a skeptic out there that questions me because of my age. I know that I am not the only one who has and continues to suffer from these igno-rant individuals because just by being part of the DB community I have come to learn and know
many young peo-ple who hold themselves to stan-dards that far ex-ceed those of their peers. There are members that can hold themselves in a full on debate providing factual evidence, members that can assist you on all technical as-pects, members that can help you out when you are having a bad day, and heck there are members that can do just about any-thing you could need. This is one of the strongest argu-ments that I can bring forth to-wards those who believe that
There are plenty of things that get on peoples’ nerves, but I con-sider myself to be a timid person at nature and it takes a lot to push me off the edge so to speak. Unfortu-nately recently I have come across one of those things, and I de-cided to reflect upon it. Ever since I was a little kid I have been repeat-edly been put down by older members of soci-ety because I was deemed “young” and inexperi-enced. However, I have never taken these comments lightly and have always fought back and voiced my opinions re-gardless, and to be frank I have usually provided better arguments and valid points than those who

personally wit-nessed some of it here myself. On the other hand I commend the older members of our community for hav-ing the patience and respect for the younger members by allowing them to voice their own opinions and tak-ing their views into consideration, I know that nobody knows everything and from each other we all learn and develop over-all into better members of the DB community, but in
every community.
