Tribal War
TribalWar, often abbreviated TW, is a general news website that originally focused on the game Starsiege: Tribes, or Tribes, a team-based online multiplayer first-person shooter, and its subsequent sequel and prequel. TribalWar was created on December 5, 1999, by Anthony "Rayn" Maio, Jon "Ratorasniki" Naiman and Johnny "Imposter" Titus. The website propagated its news coverage to general subjects due to the financial failure of Tribes: Vengeance and presumed end to the Tribes franchise. The most popular feature of TribalWar's website is their message board, which uses a heavily modified version of vBulletin. TW currently has the 17th highest number of posts of any video game forum and the 6th highest post/member ratio of any video game forum according to Big Boards. Over twelve million posts have been made on TW by its approximately 21,400 members. TribalWar has expanded to the point of almost excluding the game series it was formed around, although it still features specific forums dedicated to Tribes. In order to appeal to a more varied audience, they now feature non-gaming subforums.

Famous quotes containing the words tribal and/or war:
“What is this conversation, now secular,
A speech not mine yet speaking for me in
The heaving jelly of my tribal air?
It rises in the throat, it climbs the tongue,
It perches there for secret tutelage....”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“I really don’t think this war will end soon. We are completely aware of the difficulties, no food or fuel, the danger, but we want to be stronger than all that. With each child, we are fighting back with our love of life.”
—Tina Bajraktarebic (b. 1965)
