Den Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I'm not in a clan, nor do I really have any plans on joining one, but I definitely see the benefit of this update to clans. I grouped together with a few friends and we formed a clan to test it out, and I do really like some of the features. The private clan meetings in the tent with the voting box and send meeting invite features there we're some I found really cool. Sadly I haven't been able to see the rated clan wars battlefield since both teams need 10 people to start a match, even though I just want to view the arena. All in all though, I think it's good that they added this feature for clans. This doesn't change the fact that I'm tired of listening to Jagex going on and on about clans every month though. ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

Fekambard Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Why oh why must everyone be on at once to form a clan? Does this cement those original founders in a specific position? Anti-flood measure. The only way for cheaters to register a clan for the fancy clan cape is through multi-logging. Not like it'll stop the serious ones since there's at least one client that's coded in multilogging, but it will slow down the greedy lemming types.Or to get random people to help them found a clan, then just kick them off after it has been founded. Thus, free custom capes for the individual only. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's feasible. Prepare to Die! Path of Exile RPG "Think where man's glory most begins and ends, and say my glory was I had such friends."

I don't think it's feasible.Why not, it works with IRC why shouldn't it work in runescape.. Or simplier: why the hell decides jagex to constantly build custom crap software? Instead of using a well established open source flavour and change it to their flavour! - There are many IRC clients for java, and creating a personal IRC server/network is something even I can do.. This isn't only faster, more customizable, better and cleaner.. But also won't face any downtime (since a network never goes down with a server crash). First they came to fishingand I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing Then they came to the yewsand I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews Then they came for the oresand I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak out for me.

Flareboy64 Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 So, im a little confused with this update.... Can I join a MH / Pking clan and still be in another clan with friends? [hide]99 Strength 99 Fletching 99 Range 99 Hitpoints 99 Attack99 Dungeoneering <3 99 Magic 99 Smithing 99 Herblore 99 ThevingSlayer Drops: 14 whips, 22 D boots, 27 Granite Mauls, 42 Effigies, 5 Dark Bows. What would be cool is if Drakan and his minions kill all the sig heroes in the quest except Raptor who is wrecking. You and him team up and cave in some vampyre heads. He becomes a total bro in future quests and in a GM quest he receives a fatal injury and his last dying words to you are "Brofist, mang"[/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkDude Posted April 12, 2011 Author Share Posted April 12, 2011 So, im a little confused with this update.... Can I join a MH / Pking clan and still be in another clan with friends? There are 3 different chats: Friends Chat - Exactly the same as before, you type in a name and join that persons chat, no restrictions on this.Clan Chat - You join a clan and you're in this clan chat, forever. YOu can't leave this chat no matter what (unless you leave this clan).Guest Clan Chat - You type in another Clan's name and can join their clan chat if they allow it. So if your friends are all in clans you can still talk to them in Friends Chat. Or if you're in one Clan and your friends are in another Clan you can join their chat and talk to them there.

BloodAngel Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 The only thing I don't particularly like about this update is that orange dots take priority over green dots so it's difficult to differentiate between friends and clan members. Other than that this update doesn't effect me hugely but I can see why clans would find it useful. "Unfortunately, the real world isn't the same as a fairy tale."

Or if you're in one Clan and your friends are in another Clan you can join their chat and talk to them there.Though this requires quite a bit of efford: X joins main 1, but also wants to join 2: so 2 is "friend"..Y wants to join 2 & 3, so "3" goes mainZ wants to join 1 & 3 - now what? I'm aware this example can be avoided by guests: but what when you like to join 3 chats? than this problem will occur... And if you "leave" your clan chat, you'll have to be reinvited manually by a leader!

geomaniak Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I love this update thus far, it's pretty nice. However, I wish I could have affiliation with more than one clan. But all in all, it's a well implemented update however I don't feel it's *that* great for clans whom have their own forums, IRC channels, etc. Meh, I also uploaded a video about the update with commentary a few hours back: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be fine creating one with some other users as long as people remembered that actions inside it are not the responsibility of staff. Want to be my friend?
