Tell us about your RuneScape account and history.

My account has been active on and off ever since the very oldest days of Runescape. The Classic era. I remember when Runescape "2" came out, or OSRS as we know it now, and how DIFFERENT everything was. I had trouble getting used to it, I was only 9 or 10 and was just overwhelmed (not in a good or bad way, just neutral) at first but it did grow on me. My favourite era of Runescape is when the metal dragons update was released. I remember spending lots of time and GP on training mage, ranged, and melee in order to take on these formidable new monsters. I never got the dragon legs/plateskirt drop I was after...Unfortunately, after moving away from my friends IRL and having to change schools, I lost interest in the game as I had no one to play with. However, when Old School Runescape was released I started watching B0aty and really got into the game again. I still don't really have any friends that play and this is what brought me here, to find a community.

 

Tell us about your clan history.

I was only in one other clan, and it happened to be WG's sister anti-pking clan: Synergy. It was led by Eragon_CD and Maddmurdok. I hope I spelled those right.

 

Tell us about your yourself.

My name is Brian, I am a 27 year old male from Canada. My main hobbies are playing video games, watching baseball, collecting baseball cards, fishing, as well as playing baseball when I get the chance. I have a lengthy and complex history and I'd love to get to the point where I feel comfortable sharing more about myself with new friends.

How did you hear about us?  My brother (Ferahgo28) was in the clan (damn you guys must have had some low requirements LOL)

What makes you want to join us? Well, I know this clan has a great reputation and I want to pick up where I left off when I was a kid. I had dreamed of joining WG at a higher combat/total level but never got around to it.

 

Do you agree to the rules and requirements of WG and understand that this is an honour clan? Yes

 

Come clean about anything that may deter us from accepting you: Alright, the fun part. This is going to suck. I have botted in the past, I was just starting OSRS and was too lazy to put the work in for one stat in particular. I botted to about 40 agility. This was before rooftop agility I believe, not that that is an excuse I am simply trying to give context. I am also guilty of RMT unfortunately...Not lately, and I am enjoying the grind again, but when I picked the game up again about a month ago and found that my account had been hacked I was extremely discouraged because I had worked really hard to come up with a bank worth 50m-75m. I logged in for the first time to find that whoever had been playing on my account had gotten my melee and ranged to level 99. I've never had a 99 before. The farthest I ever made it was halfway, 92 prayer in RS3 when I sold my green mask that I had been holding onto for a long time in order to buy all the bones necessary. I did this just to go kill mithril dragons in order to get a chance at the dragon full helm which was one of the most iconic items I could remember just before I had quit for the longest period of time. The 99's got me excited, the most endgame content I had ever done was a fair amount of barrows and a lot of metal dragons. That's it; but the game has changed and there are new mechanics. It piqued my interest and I decided I wanted to go kill Vorkath, and then some rune dragons after that for the nostalgia of killing metal dragons again. So I bought GP. I regret it. I used it to get a dragon hunter crossbow and kickstart my account back up again. I wanted to go straight into the end game. But I know this could come back to bite me, however I am totally prepared and willing to accept a ban for my actions and I am also willing to drop my dragon hunter crossbow in the wilderness if it makes the difference between joining and not joining. If I get banned (which has never happened to me in the history of my account, over 20 years) I plan on starting an Iron Man to force me to play the game instead of cheating my way to the top. I apologize for my transgressions and hope they can be looked back upon as regrets rather than simply just mistakes I keep making over and over again.

Very. Might have to hire a PI for this one.

ayy welcome

Welcome

[Dangerhorse]

Is there a problem? I feel judged. I don't think that's fair given the fact that I did exactly what was asked of me and confessed all my transgressions willingly...Is what I've done really that unforgivable? Stop beating around the bush with your comments, give it to me straight. "Sus" and "" are not comments that inspire confidence and I'd like to know if someone has a problem with me already.

 

Apologies for the harsh tone but life has been rough, I play video games to relax and I legit have anxiety about joining now that I've been greeted with this response.

 

To everyone who has welcomed me, thank you very much!

Welcome!

I do not know you personally and please do not take this personally. It is not my place to judge you for what you have or have not done. My hesitation to support is based solely on what you have written. Let me be clear, It's not about a one time offence its more about the history. You can drop a DCB but you cant un-earn experience. 

[Why Try Guy]

Hope to see you around bro, good luck on the app!

I really don't have a good enough response for this. I can't unearn any xp.What am I supposed to do, ask Jagex to rollback my account? There isn't a chance that they would look upon me favourably...So why should you? It's simple. I just want to be given a chance here. That's all. I'm not here to make a fuss, I don't want to ruffle any feathers. If people are going to be upset about me being allowed into the clan given that history, then I don't want to be in the clan at all. I mean, I do, but not under those circumstances. All I want is to chill out with some people, play Runescape, and get a bit of a community aspect into the game that I already love. Just give me a chance. I am going to continue to play the game regardless of whether or not I am let into the clan, and do you know what would happen if I was rejected from every clan I applied to based on my history? I would feel totally alienated from the community in this game. I would not have anywhere near as much fun. The game would get lonely and stale, just like real life. Then what? Well, if I am totally alienated by the community that would actually probably push me back towards botting and RWT. This is just like the dealing with addicts in real life. In the world, addicts are shunned and ignored. That just isolates them and pushes them further away from the societal norms and expectations, driving them further and further into addiction. This is why it's so hard to recover from addiction, I should know as I am only 2 months sober in my recovery. I don't mean to get all political with this I am simply trying to make a case for myself and this seemed like a fitting comparison. What attracted me to this clan was the fact that I was under the impression that they would accept a reformed rulebreaker, or maybe I'm not there yet. Maybe I'm just trying to become reformed. Regardless of that, I want to be in this clan because it is going to help me stay away from these destructive behaviours. I am already quite hurt by the hesitation some people are showing...As if I am too far gone to recover?

 

EDIT: Ok I took that personally.

Your edit summed it up perfectly - you took it personally. Just remember we are all here for fun and we all play the game for fun, don't take anything too seriously or personally (especially @Zebe69 who's a great laugh, I promise). So long as you are sound and able to have a laugh with others (sometimes at your own expense) you'll find yourself to have a very warm welcome and overall have a great time in WG. 

 

I can't see that your offences are anything which would necessarily get you rejected (although if you were found to be doing it while part of WG you would be kicked, I think) and your application is all in all a good one, but I'm not an app manager so what do I know lol. Welcome all the same and, even if you are rejected, WG_CC is an open cc so you are more than welcome to hang out and have a good time in there as a lot of people do.

Thanks for this. I appreciate it.

 

Also I just got the KBD pet at 261 kc after deciding to attempt to farm for it for some afk money and a chance at it.

 

Inb4 I get banned lol

[WG Repent]

This guy is a solid dude, his MO is consistent, he wants to game. His past offences is not a reflection on his integrity, he shouldn't have botted and RWT true! But he can't turn back the XP earned while hacked, if anything he's doing the best thing by using his account in a community setting that will help other players benefit from his stats. The key thing to me is his honesty, if he was out to hurt our community or take advantage of our players then why not lie? What does he have to gain from telling us the truth? Nothing unless he wants to have an actual gain from the relationships made in the cc, a clean slate to build a foundation of trust. Regardless of how you feel about the XP gains that he didn't earn, which I have my own opinions on, you can't reject the fact that he did his part by coming clean, he's repented and now we need to do our part by letting him in openly and without judgement. If you disagree with me cool, but just know that we've all been in a place of regret needing forgiveness, and were would we be if someone didn't take us in and help us towards becoming better and making a progression on the right path. So I simply ask of the members of the cc to hold their tongue and be a blessing not a burden on this new member trying to do good in the name of WG, Thanks Ahead!

[Tauriiel]

Welcome bro we glad to have you in Wilderness Guardians 

[ProtectMeGod]

Regardless of his past he sounds legit. All I can say is I agree with Simmons just dont rwt (which I'm sure you wont any more) while in WG. If its that bad for gp do what I do and buy bonds legally, (go ahead and make fun of me I work all day dont have time to grind that much but Im getting slayer etc...) but ya man as far as getting hacked and recovering your account it is a unique case but just move forward. There's a Bible verse of Luke 9:62 that talks about looking forward and not back, check it out if you're interested I think you might like it. And as far as those levels its not your fault you got hacked and you didnt bot those levels either.

 

Get an Authenticator on your account so you can secure it to you, just my advice. As far as you as a person based on your app you seem like a chill guy that Id be glad to be in the clan with. I hope Osrs is a good place for you to have a hobby and WG is an awesome place to do that hobby
