GS Trading Co is a secluded group ran by Gsmack and SkullerG. Established in 2018 on 2b2t and migrating over to sim in June 2020, the group has grown from the original 2, to now 8 members. GS Trading Co is mostly known on the server for being very wealthy, and it has become one of the fastest-growing groups of 2020. They are known for PvP, collecting, exploring, and farm designing. GS Trading Co. was formed in 2018 when Gsmack and SkullerG wanted to make a collection for their items on 2b2t. Once they did, they invited their friends 4Pilot and Redbaron1991 to make some bases and join as affiliates. They later expanded the group by inviting iLxgend. Once the group had grew bored of 2b2t, they were looking for another server to join, and later migrated over to SimPvP looking for a new place to play.
From July 2021 to January 2022, GS Trading Co. was a core member of the G.S.F.W. super-alliance, alongside the Church of Francis and The Order of Wilbur.
After the grief of GS Base 3, many members would become inactive, but despite that some still play actively.

History
Beginning Establishment
Migrating from 2b2t, Gsmack, SkullerG, 4Pilot, and _Goujon_ would all join the server looking from a server to call home. They had discovered the server through 4Pilot, who had previously joined on April 18th, 2020 hearing about it from a long time 2b2t player who had also joined sim before, xcc2. In a short amount of time together they had ventured out to create their first base, GS Base 1 which they ended up staying till they had gained enough resources to move farther out. Their quick rise in power came through their farm expert, SkullerG, who over the course of year would develop many powerful farms for the group that allowed them to get ahead of all the others players and established groups on Sim. Their main builder and explorer 4Pilot would construct small builds alongside Gsmack & Goujon. GS's other notable rise to fame during their establishment was the legacy of SkullerG and _Goujon_ as fierce pvpers who quickly posed a threat to many long time pvpers. It would later be Goujon's thirst for blood that led to the first war GS Trading Co would be apart of.
The Brunoland War of Independence
The Brunoland War started on August 17th after Goujon attempted to kill Bruno_vera in /world. With the beginning of the war, GS Trading Co would blockade /world to every group not in support of them. In response, Anthand would assemble a small team to take back /world consisting of FlameKnight, Sellout9, and himself. Brief fighting would occur and SkullerG would be the one to bite the bullet after Sellout9 knocked him into the void.
After the first initial fight tensions began to die down as both Brunoland and GS Trading were working at their own bases not paying much attention to the war. Bruno would then ask Goujon to cease hostility not liking conflict. Agreeing, the war would seem to come to a close as both parties had mutually agreed it was time for it to end. Or so they thought.
With the conclusion of the Spawn Kast Removal Team efforts at spawn, both Brunoland and GS Trading Co members would be present with no fighting. All the members of GS Trading after the photo taken for SKRT would announce that they wanted to show everyone a 'special base' they had found. Anthand, paranoid, rushed to brunoland as soon as possible believing that it could be the base they are referring to. With his paranoia being correct Anthand watched as every member of GS Trading arrived at the base. At a standoff, both parties stood there paralyzed wondering who would attack first. Battle would occur after GS started to break chests and bomb various buildings. Sice_01 would arrive at brunoland unaware of GS Trading's presence and assist Anthand in a 3-2 battle. Outnumbered and unprepared, after his final totem had popped Anthand took to the skies in order to draw out members of GS. Only drawing out Goujon, Sice would then be crystalled to death by SkullerG. With the fall of Brunoland, GS Trading's justification for their grief after agreeing to stop hostility was that it had not officially ended. The war finally came to a close after the griefing of Brunoland and it looked very unlikely that the members would regroup after the fall of their base.
Sternenfall Nochmal
Early development of Sternenfall Nochmal would begin on June 30th, 2020. The original four members, Goujon, SkullerG, Gsmack, and 4Pilot. These four players who begin early developments on farms like bamboo, bee, sugarcane, and as well as villager trading halls to quickly gear up. Skuller during this time would be-friend llama and named it, "niggalama." The base would not see huge developments until after the Brunoland War of Independence. During the war 4Pilot would construct a powerful gunpowder farm that supplied the rest of GS Trading Co with TNT and fireworks. After the Brunoland War an old friend of theirs Redbaron1991 would be invited to the base after a six month absence from their group. One of their members, Gsmack, originally was not to pleased hearing that Baron would be brought to the base and proceeded to murder him countless times before eventually welcoming him back to the group and giving him a shovel which is still in his enderchest till this day. Reunited these five players would begin constructing more builds and farms together now back after all their migrations from 2b2t. For a few months building at their own areas before bringing in three new members to their group, SenorJeb, iLxgend, ZedZeppelin. ZedZeppelin, the newest member of the group would construct their first portal hub that included diamonds in the floor for aesthetic. iLxgend would work in a private location far off from the base creating a giant horse race track for his building pleasure. SenorJeb would create a sandcastle which would then later be ingulfed by 4Pilot's Skyscraper during the modernization of the base. More farms would be created, such as the raid farm built by SkullerG which allowed them to take control of the emerald economy on sim. A new portal hub made by iLxgend which had brought astounded beauty also sparking the base's theme of modern skyscrapers.
ZedZeppelin's construction of his own separate base would begin, calling it "Winterfell." This base would follow a wintery town theme with a giant main hall in the middle of this spectacular base. With hot air balloons flying across this cold base and an ice dragon watching over his masterpiece, Zed would create his legacy as a greatly talented builder. Winterfell would live as his home until it's grief after YMP x-rayed the portal leading to the base.
Other small events would take place during this base such as the slaughtering of pets first started by the murder of Gsmack's cat committed by Baron. This mass slaughter of pets led to every member hiding their pets in fear of their loved ones being brutally murdered by Baron acting like a complete psychopath. The last known murder of a pet at the base was the death of Skuller's pet cat, "tabby", who was killed by Gsmack on accident which caused both Baron and Gsmack to scramble to find a replacement cat before SkullerG could find out. Skuller never found out about the cat's death to the hands of his friends and assumed it's death was from the later grief of Sternenfall at the hands of YMP. This base would be home to many civil wars within the group such as the death of Irwin, Goujon & Gsmack's pet Iron Golem. The Trial of Gsmack V Baron, a court case ruled by the judge, SkullerG, over a case about the many griefs and murders the two had committed against each other. Gsmack and Baron's rivalry and playful hatred for each other would continue throughout the second base with Baron griefing Gsmack's Christmas tree & bee farm, and Gsmack blowing up Baron's first home at the base. 4Pilot would begin base hunting during this time and discover many bases including Creaverse. SkullerG would reach the Z+ World Border during his time at this base. Sternenfall would also be the operation base that GS used during the Imperial War to gear up themselves and their allies up with the resources they had. As time passed on all the members of the base had started conversation of relocating to a base farther out and more secure as their old base was still fairly close to spawn. In the summer of 2021 they would set out on a long journey of creating what would have been their biggest and most powerful base yet, GS Base 3. Sternenfall Nochmal would thrive for a whole year before it's eventual demise in August of 2021.
Imperial War
Before allying with Church Of Francis, GS Trading Co would join the war alongside the People's Coalition. All 8 members of GS Trading would help in the war providing the People's Coalition resources and gear while also granting them the assistance of their best pvpers. GS would fight together with The Order Of Wilbur, YeeterMyPeeter, Goldforge Citadel, The Order of the Wyvern, and many others. On December 10th, all People's Coalition members would meet at Lakeside Lodge, a Church of Francis outpost that would be griefed. Immediately after, they would relocate to Gibraltlar Castle also griefing that. As war continued, GS Trading Co co-leader, Gsmack, discovered a spawn base that was initially started by Anthand. While exploring the base he discovered a Francillian Flag and alerted the People's Coalition where they would grief it on December 14th, 2020.
A breaking point would occur in the war when fellow PC member, Sellout9 would scam ZedZeppelin in a trade in /world on January 8th. In retaliation to this betrayal, both GS Trading leaders SkullerG and Gsmack would encourage all GS Trading Co members to withdrawal from the war. All GS members besides 4Pilot would leave the People's Coalition causing them to take a huge hit in numbers. During this incident, Francis leader Lord1, seeing an opportunity would attempt to recruit GS Trading Co to the side of The Church of Francis. Declining, GS Trading Co would leave the war and continue building at Sternenfall Nochmal.
