sad to see another clan go.
I use to say this to all these recent closing topics :sad: Do take note though that this closure is not related to any of the recent closures of clans. All during 2009 we were basically struggling to get MoD back to where it use to be and this just happens to be the day we accept closure

Today, after 4 years and 7 months of existence, Masters of Dragons closes.
Almost two weeks ago, I made a post in leadership circle stating I was stepping down. The reason for this is that my life has become busier, sooner than I thought it would be. There are a number of things I want to focus on, that have been pushed away as a priority in my life since I started the MoD revival a few months ago. Since then both Ravindave and Busterlin have decided to step down. With Nintendo also not being that active recently, a complete new leadership was needed. Leadership started discussing our options. With activity in the clan dwindling already, no-one really felt that they could step up as leader and be successful, and so the leadership agreed that it would be better to close MoD now while we are on a high, than head back down the increasingly likely road of where we were a few months ago.
I suppose too many people in the clan have moved on from the game. That drive for runescape and clanning isnt as strong as it once was, with a lot of people not as active as they feel they need to be to make MoD succeed.
I myself have been in MoD for just over 4 years, and it has been a great experience. Ive met hundreds of great people, had countless good times, and have learnt a lot. Weve had a huge number of great achievements, and to name them all, would make this post far too long. I have no regrets from the times I lead MoD, I made mistakes for sure, but always tried to do what I thought was best at the time, and learnt from anything else. Our forums will remain open, after I re-arrange them to be more accessible to guests. Irc will stay, and vent will stay for a few more weeks until it runs out (after that I suggest people get skype to talk with). Over the long time Mod has been alive, we have had our ups and downs, but always we remained a close knit family with a great community, and I hope that the community remains, and people keep in touch with each other, despite closing.
Im not going to make any special shout outs to individuals, as there are simply far too many and I wouldnt want to leave anyone out. But I would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who went above and beyond what they were expected to do as a normal member of the clan. Thank you to all the councils, leaders, warlords, generals, elders and team members etc whos time into the clan, really made us what we were; your work did not go un-noticed. Last of all, thank you to every person, who was once a part of MoD, even if not a part of the clan now, you made your impact, and I hope everyone enjoyed the time they did have here.
There will we be no substitution for MoD for me, but all good things must come to an end, and unfortunately its time for MoD to be laid to rest.
R.I.P Masters of Dragons.
Quoted from our leader, Kiwiwithbow, from our clan forums.
Personally I was in MoD from May 2008 and really enjoyed my time. Glad to have been with MoD until the end.
Once a MoD, always a MoD.

looks great although his tounge looks too much like balls
Haha that's the first thing I thought when I saw it :oops:
Anyway, yours is definately more vibrant and "sunny" like :thumbup:
Nice job
-

Fine lol make it difficult :(
Someone add a poll
-
Yeah well it was 28th for me and it didn't seem like anyone else was going to enter. 28th now though and no more entries so its done.
Btw when do I get the underbanner for winning the last one :(
-
Not sure if you guys extend when only one entry but I'm just going to close it now and give winner to NoFuns, now you can make it littleboy :thumbsup:
Congrats to NoFuns for winning! The only entry, but a great entry! :thumbup:

I agree with Dan. The ring is nice. However, I don't know about the color. It's a nice, neutral gray/silver, but it seems too... blah. I don't know if this makes any sense (it could just be my own views), but I associate gray with the corporate world, factories, and cement roads. It doesn't scream "environment" and gray seems to be the dominating color in it. Of course, you're not done with details, so I don't know what the globe or the ring will look like when finished.
Anyway, the logo is really coming together nicely :thumbup:
He scratched the entire idea

The palace looks quite blurry compared to the hands
-
The ring just seems useless to me, what is the purpose of having it there? The stuff wrapping the globe is very nice though :thumbsup:
-
When I said reality I meant how the wind/snow, water and plants/nature all work together
Like that but your new one looks good! Maybe have text around the ring?
-
Oo making them fade would be good, since they all link together in reality, Having the globe definately looks better. If you moved the 3 symbols to sit on the edge of the globe that might look better and then they would be close enough to connect
-
-
I was about to say how many sets I have but that might not be a good idea :ohnoes:
-
Would it look better having only 3 sun rays instead of 4, and have each one point towards an element?
-
I'm not sure about the binding ring thing, it would be better if they were being bounded in the triangle shape not a circle
-
Yet another clan to close in these recent times *sigh*
Well good luck to those who were Akel, hope you find a new home :)
-
I'm allowed to enter right?
-
-
I should thank all the skilled people who didn't enter :thumbsup:
The winner makes the next topic correct?

Well I have been making quite a lot of sigs recently and made this one following a tut:
I love the outcome so I'll probably make more with this style
Looking for some CC to help me improve. Trying to ween myself off tutorials at the moment :thumbup: (not that tutorials are bad, they are very helpful!)
