Brief history
Sapphire was officially established in 2011, but members of the group began to band together as early as 2010. Early members of the group turned towards communicating via Skype because it was the best form of the group knew of at the time. The group began to grow throughout 2012 and eventually realized that Skype's services have poor quality and lack utilities that were needed by Sapphire. Some members would often not join Skype calls.
In the summer of 2012, t3sla proposed the idea of transitioning to the RaidCall to the rest of the Administrators, and it was fulfilled. RaidCall was an upcoming communication program that had seemingly promising features. Since t3sla proposed the idea, it was decided that he should create the first RaidCall channel, sapphiredev, and serve as the Server Admin.
After a short while, Slar complained that t3sla abused his powers too much. As a result, he defected and started his own channel called Dirty Sapphire. The group came to the unanimous decision to join his channel. Although Slar promised better conditions, the group suffered even worse power abuse and corrupted administration here. It was during these times that members of the group were beefing with each other nearly every day. The overall atmosphere of the voice chat was agitated and irritated. The general consensus was that the group needed an even better voice communication program.
Bryan was basically the de facto leader of the group, but he decided to legitimize his position by renting a TeamSpeak server. TeamSpeak had the perfect utilities to keep the community in check.
