The Anti-Cringe Association (ACA) (originally known as the Anti-Crossbow Association) was a faction that mainly operated on Weedbox, and, occasionally, Super Garrys Mod Server. As its name suggests, the group's primary goal was to defend and rid what was its main server, Super, of cringe, which from their point of view primarily came in the forms of crossbows, killing builders and raiding. ACA also aimed to defend the server from foreign threats, which at the time of creation became much more prevalent due to World War IV.
History
Crossbow War (March - April 2021)
ACA was founded on March 31, 2021, as part of a push against a group of rampaging crossbow spammers known as the Crossbow Bois. On April 1, they fought the first (and last) battle against the Crossbow Bois and won after 2 hours of conflict, claiming victory via K/D. They waited around a week before determining that the Crossbow Bois had ceased operations and existence on Super. They then learned that the Crossbow Bois had also dissolved, effectively winning the war.
Redditor War (April 2021)
On 4/23/2021, a group was formed on Super that called itself the Legion of Independence (L.O.I.), lead by Nick Brayston.
It formed for the purpose of "freeing" Super from the ACA, even though the ACA stated they don't own Super nor control it, and don't wish to. At around 9:00 PM (EST) that night, the L.O.I. initiated a fight with the ACA, ending in an ACA victory and an L.O.I. retreat. Originally, ACA was told they dissolved after the first fight, but on 4/26/2021 it was found out via espionage that the L.O.I. was actually lying and were recruiting via a post on the GMod subreddit and on the GMod discussions page on Steam.
The ACA, having found both posts, had a few ACA members make replies on both posts. The replies consisted of calling out the L.O.I. for attempting to bring outsiders into an internal affair and for lying to said outsiders about the purpose and actions of the ACA. As a response to this, on The L.O.I. responded to the replies with biased and false info about their first fight, as well as cutting communications with the ACA. Later that day the L.O.I. initiated a fight against ACA, ending in another ACA victory.
On 4/27/2021, the L.O.I. made a final push against the ACA, rallying its remaining forces on Super to fight the ACA one final time. During the fight, the L.O.I. engaged ACA forces for around 30 minutes before the ACA claimed a large victory, dominating the L.O.I. and causing them to retreat for a second time.
After their second retreat, the ACA leader was informed that the L.O.I. was dissolving and would no longer be on Super, declaring the ACA victorious in the process.
2024 Status
In mid - late 2023, the ACA discord was destroyed by a rogue higher-up. Due to a lack of motivation and energy, Scooty dissolved the ACA.
