Clan Names Loosing The Effect??

Recommended Posts

OK heres what i think...

 

 

 

you got older players who remember the early days of clans and the classic clans. they are now either in the big clans or have retired from runescape.

 

 

 

you got newer players who have either heard the tales, been PKed, know someone in a clan or been in a few clans or something and now want to start their own clans.

 

 

 

you got players who are just scared of PKing or want to focus on skills rather than combat (AS I SAID SCARED OF PKING LOL).

 

 

 

ok so it aint a perfect world and so not every player is gonna fit nicely in those 3 groups but you get the picture...moving on

 

 

 

now clan name stealing doesnt necessarily come from knowing there was a clan and stealing their name. it usually comes from liking the name and not checking any clan lists to see if its taken.

 

 

 

dont put people down for having a bad clan name...yes they may not have the same effect as the clans of old but oh well you cant put people down for stealing names then put them down for not having a name as good as one they could have stolen lol...your never gonna be satisfied lol.

 

 

 

im starting a clan when i reach 110 cb but im getting my friends together now so we can train together and get the word out that The High Clan is coming...now The High Clan (using my clan as an example) is a pretty basic name and i liked it because its THC for short lol. its not the name thats gonna inspire fear its gonna be our reputation...and thats the same with any clan. if a clan has a good name and no one decent then its not gonna be a very good clan...visa versa if one of these clans which doesnt have a good original name turns out to be a harsh clan that owns a lot then they will get a reputation...a name doesnt mean much its just to differentiate yourself from everyone else.

Rofl, THC. That's cool :mrgreen: Umm... I don't have any problem with THC running after me...

Yeah, I think you're right. Back forever ago, before i got involved with ZF, I made a clan called the Mystic Crusaders. I had actually used the name Mystic Crusader back in this other game I played, but Raimus of the Mystic Knights and some guy from the Crusaders clan decided I purposefully stole their name (Hadn't actually heard of either at that point, to be honest.) Anyways, I decided that it was more amusing to ridicule Raimus at that time than to make any well thought out political move, so, it was... interesting.

 

 

 

Anyways, alls well that ends well, and I learned a lot from that. Especially not to put people in leadership positions in your clan just because theyre friends of yours... Yeah, bad plan. But that's a side story.

After pixels became easy to obtain, no one really cared about clan names.

 

 

 

Like someone said, Back in teh day when rune cost WAY more than it does now, people would add other clan memebrs and if they logged same world its "OHH CRUD ZF IS HERE!" or "GLADZ RUN!"

 

 

 

Soon after that though, it became "gladz only has 60 people, and exer has 35, so, lets take out exer instead of gladz :-P"

 

Now its just like "what, they have 300 opts, we have 150? lets go! MASS RETURN ALL!"

 

 

 

Btw, Its really cool when people know your clan through you as a person. certain names would let you know what clan was where. Just a small list

 

 

 

Pally(paladinwinz)

 

Supa (super vegetable, err vegeta :-P)

 

Dimi (dimitrix)

 

Lucca (lucca13)

 

Swifty (swiftymcvae) I dont think he was really "IN" a clan ... but his name was pretty popular back a while ago)

 

Jerico(jerico)

 

 

 

Wow man there were a whole bunch of others. I wish i could remember........

The only thing I know Dimitrix for is running from our war against Jagz, even though he can mine and smith rune :oops: Hilarious

Says a nameless guy who is afraid of showing his RS name anywhere.

 

Have I killed you sometime and you lost your last set? Perhaps. Spent few weeks getting another? Jealous of my levels since you had to mention that as well?

 

I bet that all has ticked you off.

 

 

 

I did die in the war in the end. Just gave you guys a bit of a run, since most of you are f2p with lvl 1 agility. But I guess you just can't figure that one out... Since you're a new guy in clans, otherwise I had heard about you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And to the topic itself... Names do not run out. Be creative.

 

Any name can become "cool", though. It's not the name that makes the clan, it's the people in it.

Oh, my name used to be in my signature, but apparantly it's gone or something? You certainly never killed me (Pure Knights), Jagz themselves even failed to kill me in that war and I was what, #2 on their list of people they wanted dead?

 

 

 

I'm sorry, but when the war is to take place ***EAST OF THE GREATERS*** and you run to the Chaos Dwarfs? That is what one would call running from a war. I could certainly care less about your stats, it just adds even more to the fact that someone who could make the armour would try and get away from a fight.

 

 

 

Oh and just a lil info, my name on here would be Pure Knights, but it was wrongfully banned back when tip.it switched boards. I think Lady Sarf tried to fix it at one point, or forgot to, I don't really remember, all I know is that it stayed banned and I had to use this one.

I own The Plague i Think thats original what do you think? Lol and a few days ago some noob clan stole the name lol.

 

 

 

Yea, and your clan had what... 2 members?

 

 

 

The other clan offered to war you for the name. They had about 30 members with a 102 combat average. I wouldn't call them noobs :shame:

Nah, not all the good names have been taken. It's just more RS2 products are being born, tis quite sad. :-#

 

 

 

I can come up with a lot of names at the drop of a hat. :lol:

 

 

 

Warriors of Lazuli

 

The Onyx Seance

 

Mist Riders

 

 

 

La la... Terribly cliche gem names! O:)

 

 

 

Uuh, more RS2 products are being born? Meaning what exactly? I hate idiots like you who think because they played Classic, they are 'cool', and are just the best and higher than the rest.

 

 

 

Wrong.

Just out of curiostity, why does the name "Runescape Raiders" have an insult beside it? And why do you say it's a noob clan, that are thieves? :lol: Then you say "Im not flamming about the clans"... Bull. You just gave them a direct insult. What's up with that? :-s

Those are some pretty good names. In fact, I'm pretty sure there's an Excessive in RS. I think it's an RSB clan though. :wink:

  • 3 years later...

The problem is there r 2 many clans now, every1s got 1 - including my noobish lvl 10 mate

 

That is true, but if you think about it, probably only 25% of those Clan's go no to be succesful and well known Clan's. The other 75% just fall apart after the first couple of weeks.
