1.1 b. About Mentally Insane Gamers

Mentally Insane Gaming (MIG) was created in 2013 by a guy named Dylan (MIG ANTHRAX XI) and a bunch of Ex Leaders and members from the gaming community XG. The idea behind the community was to build a large gaming community that was built for gamers who have a passion for playing video games as a fun, social activity.

Built around a ranking structure that is fit for never ending growth and to create social experiences that inspire action. The rank structure offers the opportunity for members to stand up and lead a group of members. The leadership experiences gained in our rank structure can be put to use in real life situations and future jobs that a member may take on.

Since starting in 2013, MIG has participated on the games; Call of Duty Black Ops 2, and Battlefield 3.

MIG is for Gamers 15+
