== Heroes Group ==
=== History ===
The Group was formed under a very particular circumstance and was mainly made of a small group of active IRC dwellers, the main group of which consisted of FinnishFighter and Sir_Polaris , as well as a few others... The group itself was mainly made for fun purposes but then after about a month the group began evolving. The first sign of which was a name change from the IRC heroes to the Flashpoint heroes around the time that the new group system was available on Codemasters forums. 
At this time the group was open for all to join and many came into the group to help aid in the construction of a new community, Around this time Sir_Polaris began changing the entire group which first began with removal of alot of community members who didn't have the time to commit to the new outlying plan which was to help aid the community in multiple ways. The way's of which were that of helping run multiple web sites such as that of Operationflashpoint2.org and the Flickr account.
=== Avatar ===
The first avatar was chosen by FinnishFighter of which was a pre-made avatar from a game in Codemasters library. This avatar became quite annoying for some members of the entire Flashpoint forum and it was then decided that we needed a new more custom type of avatar. The avatar which is currently being used was granted to the entire group by the web team of Codemasters and by Helios.
