There are three categories of players:
people who get caught up in this game and community they have created. Then there are those who cannot see for the life of them WHAT the other group are getting so FUSSY about. Then there're people like me who just sorta lurk and stand there and only get involved in 'trolling' because they like arguing ^_^
I don't really care about trolling, I don't walk away from my computer aggrivated about it, and neither should anyone else. If you can't handle someone else being a douchebag over the internet then I think you have problems and need to man up. The real world's got a lot more pressing issues than the internet ever will have.

lol, how did I know that in this topic there'd be some argument about RSD's actual birthday :P

First!! Oh mah gawd, what do I win???
OT: Gratz T0, semi expected.

Because majority of the players are in the EST timezone? Also, for GMT players, they can fight in the EST timezone if they're willing to sleep a little later. For EST players, it would be a pain in the ass to wake up like 5-7 am in the morning to fight a pixeled war (unless of course, they don't have a life) Don't forget it's easier to stay up late night than wake up early in the morning lol. (I bet all of you should know that since we all know the pain of waking up early for school/work lol)
So you think staying in on A SATURDAY NIGHT warring until 8am Sunday morning before going to bed is easier than getting up for a war at maybe 12.00(17.00)-14.00(19.00) est (gmt) on the Satruday? Staying up late at night I find tends to make it a pain in the ass getting up in the morning. I know I'd be pissed if I had to go to a pkri that lasted til 3am, then realise that in 3-4hours I'm going to have to start getting ready for uni/work/school.

Nice work EoS, well in :shades:

expected from a CR member to post something like this, knowing you guys kinda hate eachother lol.
They lost a lot of members, have 32 main and 21 FA ml, also not many people like RJ, so unless they do a miracle on their next prep fight, imo they will shrink further and eventually close.
i still wished them luck on rebuilding :/
Downfall beat them at 9pm est. there dead.
60% of their clan is gmt.
They still managed to pull 26 to our 30 in a cwri.
Ok, so what's the point of all this? That you're good, or that they're bad?
:thumbsup: I agree with that. IF they're pulling 26/37 to a 9pm EST war, with 60% of their ml being GMT, it shows that they are striving to do well.
What they've lost will come as a huge blow to them, but they will be able to take on the top 10 again in about a year if they want to.
That said I honestly prefer mid size clans pkri's (Like Gladz, bk, df, tr do) so I think it'd be great if RJ kinda stayed within that league. Think it's way better than the top 10 who essentially mass recruit high levels (albeit skilled warrers) that fails to interest me. But each to his own I s'pose :)

The peopole in your clan chat sound like the fisherman from the story of the fisherman who caught a fish that was thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis big.
Bosses aren't easy. If you have maxed stats + all the best gear than they're probably like fighting the Barrows brothers with standard gear; more of an inconvenience than a difficulty. But not EVERYONE has a cls, a cr, maxed stats, full vestas/bandos, overloads, dclaws and a pack yak. If someone is finding a boss to easy then the ycan either try another boss, or fight the same boss in a different manner. For the most part I think bosses are fought for loot rather than fun anyway.

Damn shame, you guys were one of the best.
But, sometimes it's better just to end than drag it out.
RIP.

Q1. Do you see any possibility in designing a pvp system for CWA? The current 'dangerous' fight drops hardly make it worth the risk.
Q2. For Cwa is there any possibility of introducing more maps? I'm sure ones like Greater Demons to East Tree would be greatly appreciated. That coupled with the possibility of a good drop system in dangerous CWA would mean clans could pvp without having to worry about crashers.
Q3. Will we be seeing an increase in the clan chat capacity anytime soon? Furthermore is there any possibility that the operator of that cc could give greater priviledges to different ranks?
Q4. What is your view (if any) on clans who use No Honour tactics such as mass name changes, crashing and cape switching?
Q5. The term 'no honour' has certainly evolved over the past few years. Are you currently aware that Hacking, real life threats and (D)DoSing are becoming more commonplace within the clan world? Do you feel that JaGex intervention and proper recognition of the clan world would lessen the extent to which these 'tactics' are used? Do you think this inervention may actually become necessary in order to stop some selfish children in different clans doing some serious damage to your game?
that is all :)

tbh whenever I'm playing my chat is 'off' and the only tab I have on is clan (unless I need to see game chat like at Metal drags :P). Regardless, I can never see anyone talking and as such I don't reply when they talk to me. You have no idea how many times I've turned my chat back 'on' just to see:
"20 Rhys 04
Yo, 20 Rhys 04
Dude are you there???
Oh ma gawd he aint talking
Bot
Reported."
Idc tbh, Jagex aren't TOTAL idiots so they'll know you aint botting if you've been reported for not entering into a conversation :P

you, and most free players give nothing back.
Now that's not true, most of jag's profit comes from advertising. It's since they have such a MASSIVE f2p fan base that they can get so much money from their adverts- because the people paying them to advertise KNOW what kind of market they're targeting. That statement is like me saying "Seeing as p2pers don't have to watch the adverts, they contribute less to the game than f2pers" Logistically that's probably correct, but at the same time they've bought that privilege, not like I'm goning to get hung up on it.

The 'top 10 clan ranking' has always been a touchy subject. It's open to interpretation and there are so many factors that can affect these ratings, however I have noticed there is a distinct lack of GMT based clans based within the top 10. One of the more recent opinions on these forums ranked the top 10 as follows:
1. Runescape Dinasty
2. Corruption
3. Reign of Terror
4. The Titans
5. Violent Resolution
6. Echo of Silence
7. Rejuvenation
8. Divine Forces
9. Crimson Raiders
10. LDK
Only one of these clans is actually ground-in GMT, and they're ranked 10th, although there doesn't seem to be a shortage of good GMT clans like LDK, Fools, TR, NG, TRWF, DG, RKOF
So my questions to you are as follows:
1. Why is there such a distinct lack of GMT clans in the top 10?
2. Do you think that a GMT clan is ever going to make it into the top 3/5?
3. Is there any one reason why EST clans seem to flourish so much more than their GMT counter parts?
4. Why aren't the majority of clans GMT based, and as such why are most wars not fought at a time that is more suitable to GMTers?
Personally I don't see any one reason why a GMTclan couldn't take number 1, I know all of the top 10 do have 'GMT units' It just seems to be that the majority of their wars are fought at a time that favours esters, which obviously puts GMTers at a disadvantage.

I have no sound card in my PC
Lol'd :P
Gratz DF, nice pull and a solid win. Looked like BK lost a lot of people towards the end of the war though, musta been tough on their part, so props to them.

JaGex were responsible for the destruction of the clan world with the removal of the wilderness. After that it started to cannibalise itself with DDoSing, hacking, Real life threats and flames and beefs gone too far. I doubt 12+hour fights in f2p, which calls for some serious dedication from the individual, really appeals to most people.
Jag have just now made it easier for people to join the RSB rankings. The majority of people who use the Rsforums anyway are members, and most of them are probably kids who don't see why they should fight in f2p when they have maxed account, with the best armour available. Obviously the more relaxed and p2p focussed RSB is going to appeal to them.

+1,000. [bleep] bonus exp weekends.
yeah... and [bleep] the government too@!!
:roll:
I LOVE BONUS XP WEEKENDS SO MUCH OMFG.
You're an unintelligent troll who has no idea how the game or economy works and are just a lazy new[bleep] ruining the spirit of the game.

I said that because by level 90 you are expected to get membership or quit.
Please search the hiscores for names like "el popo1" " S diamant Y" "Pietha" and "water is nat" then apologise for making such a stuck up, ignorant and sweeping statement.
-
well thought out, I agree with you totally!!
I'm mems until the end of septembr, but then I'll be back to f2p at level 119/120, I'm pretty much boned at dungeoneering!! Does anyone know if the 47 Prestige bonus carries from mems to f2p btw?

One of the few teams I thought were worth their salt :( RIP Guys.

OH goody I like TR ^_^
As far as multiclanning is Concerned on TIp.It I THINK that clan members can be in one main clan and one team/country clan, so you should be okay, but I'd check with a mod first :P
Hope you enjoy your stay, reckon there'll be some good pkri's between you and The, Gladz and BK. Might be nice to see a cheeky wee CWA between you and Downfall or True 0wnage.
Goodluck :thumbsup:

[/hide]I'd rather have a troll-free "inactive" forums than let those sad kids do their thing.
:thumbup:
this one opinion led to this:
so you'd rather have boring forums that are like hanging out at your grandmas retirement center, then actually active forums? Yes this is a very intelligent post.
To be fair he's more of the kinda poster that focuses on his clans topics or topics concerning his clan, so naturally he won't like trolls.
You seem mad bro.
Don't tell me.
You are one of those sad 8 year olds too?
You can keep trolling my clan, I'm not worried.
Your clan will die soon, whereas my clan will continue to evolve and thrive, as we did lately by winning one of the Jagex'c Cup sub divisions with a pull of 75 people.
You say you dislike trolls yet you call people 8 yr olds :S:S seems like you too do your fair share of trollin'
How is saying someone focuses on his own clan on forums and probably won't like trolls considered trolling him? There is nothing wrong with sticking to your own topics and it's a pretty true statement about him. You are really hard to please so I'll expect some kind of weird response about how this is a troll too...
I fail to see how the other part where I called him out calling people 8 yr olds is a troll. Control your member if you are really that upset that he caused problems.
I was focusing more on how that post was a stepping stone, rather than itself beign a troll, and semi-contextulised the rest of the 'conversation'.
It's not upet me at all, but I thought this topic was about 2 things: getting people to post in a more original manner and discussing the problems of trolling. As I said in my post if you just ignore these things it helps, if it's annoying you THAT much report it. Really there's no need to 'call him out', because that's ultimately just going to lead to MORE trolling and nothing constructive...
Yes, there is a need to call him out if he is being a hypocrite about trolling. What your saying is that his trolls are acceptable and don't need to be called out, however you feel the need, on every topic to call out other people's. Control him if you don't want him to be made to look like an idiot, because his posts reflect back on your clan, and currently the image isn't looking too great.
I never said his trolls are acceptable, I don't know if you've completely mis-interpreted what I've said but basically I was hinting that it would be best to ignore trolls, because if they don't get a rise then they'll be much less inclined to troll.
As for me calling out trolls on EVERY TOPIC I READ, would you please show me an example? The only place I know where I'm an ass is the 'rants' section of forums. Usually I only post on a topic if it interests me or I want to respond to someone who has adressed one of my previous posts (as I am doing just now). Very rarely do I go out of my way to point out that someone has been trolling, I trust my fellow CD readers can pick this out and don't feel the need to point out that someone is being an idiot.

bugger to hear that :( Gl to your other members finding new homes.

Jesus Christ, you people need to get a grip, just because you don't agree with something doesn't mean you HAVE to respond to it. Maybe it'd be a good idea to think about what you're going to say and put forward a valid argument rather than go in for a "I can't think of anything better to say, so I'll just insult your clan, dignity and personal stance, thereby undermining you, trolololol" approach.
Do i have to remind you this is clan discussion lol..
That does not mean it should be beyond people to think about what they do before doing it.

Did DG have enough 126's O_o Congratz T0, looks like you're doing well in all styles.

Got my first ever elite 15 kills into my first ever iron drag task a day after they were released.
Became addicted to metal dragons and done well over 20 runs, killing over 70 iron/steels per run. Still not had a second clue from them.
