if you read down i did offer what i saw would be a filling replacement for this. Also I know Jess snipes i also Do it sometimes however that makes 2 people who are not raid leaders who snipe etc others should get the chance. I also did not state we allow some1 who does not have TS to lead us in a proper war .... Also Having 10 people piling you teaches you to tank? Having 40+ does, not 10. Our current tanking practice is very to the point which makes it good, the only fault being the attendance. Ok well i can understand that somewhat but the way we are doing it IS NOT working hench the attendance Im trying to offer something that people will Attend i dont see you coming up with anything just killing my suggestion since your so great what do you propose we do Geoff ? -------------------- ![]() ![]() | ||||||||||

What I ment is that we should let different people other than the usual Raid leaders + few others lead and snipe in Practices and Interclans Why you may ask? Suppose we're in an official war with over 50 people on each side, it got down with to 20vs22 or something with all council, raid leaders, and the usual snipers dead, it is in these moments that we would need people to step up, lead and snipe, this is where the different people sniping/leading in practices pay off. Don't get me wrong, I'm not doubting our usual snipers and raid leaders skills, I'm saying that if everyone is prepared to do all such things, it'd help us in times where we are in need of someone to lead/snipe -------------------- ![]() MSN: [email protected] IRC: Rage|Mike at SwiftIRC and SeersIRC Drop me a comment, click to view my RSC profile!

They are wise ideas but I guess we would have to take the risk in implementing this idea in actual wars seeing as our practices don't pull enough people. Maybe some wars against TDM would be good?

Some people DO NOT like to war, for example... I am 118 f2p cmb yet im not active in wars because i don't like them, you cannot force people to do what they do not want! TDM have done a great job at this and it has worked. Change is good, and it's for the best. Most clans these days also go on skilling requirements as there are still ways to support the clan! So before you start flaming, being abussive or just being a plain dick to others think about what this clan needs. It has been said to NOT be a warring clan! Yet i see minor aspects of skilling all over the place. -------------------- Friend's Forver The Long Road Ahead - 91/99 Prayer ![]() ![]() | ||||||||||

But with such a small amount of people in the clan, splitting the clan into the old Sectors(I know this wasn't the suggestion, but it is essentially the same aspect) is not what we need. If you moved all the people who LIKE wars to a different memberlist, that memberlist would have...20 people on it. Maybe less. What does this show other people about WG? Not good things. Definitely not good things. -------------------- ![]() ![]() | ||||||||||

Most people like to war these days but there are still skillers who like to skill over fight, At the end of the day the memberlist will be used for CWPL wars or Raw rank wars not for normal wars. For example i can tolerate a certain amount of fun wars but when it comes to CWPL and Raw, people's attitudes change, people become more snappy. The seperate memberlist for these types of wars show others that we have an active Warring team, As more people join and want to join the the memberlist will grow making WG create there once tarnished name once again. Skillers support the clan, they are there to have fun, not a serious group of people but like to be apart of the clan community through support. Even though the trade window is in it still does not mean that skillers are dead and cannot help in-fact they can help more now that the GE is around as you now have a way to know that you will recieve the items needed at a small price. I still think the skilling requirements should be bought back in and we should have a choice to be either in the Community OR the active Warring part of the clan. For example if you go to any work place you normally have things running along side the job's community to better people. -------------------- Friend's Forver The Long Road Ahead - 91/99 Prayer ![]() ![]() | ||||||||||

I think this post by Karel says alot and directs it at people like me. Only recently have I worked my but off to become lvl 100. Everyone knows I don't like war but yet I have attended quite a bit of them imo. Might even average out to like 3 a month. I've been with the clan for 7 months, I came in as a skiller with high enough total level, 99 in a stat with 90+ in an accompanying stat. Because of my lvl I have been treated differently by alot of people til they get to know me. I excuse bad behavior and thy to be cheerful all the time. I went to my first war when one of the guys asked me along and assured me it was fine if I got KO. I wasn't even good at falling in on the leader. They kept asking me and I kept going cause I liked the people. I always knew I'd be first to be KO. Now I am usually 2nd or 3rd to be KO. But slightly better. How many of WG have at last minute been able to get rune armor, rune skimmy, or swordies from me. I've even bought an item p2p with the intention of loaning it out. Still I'm stinky at wars. With Karel saying what he thinks makes me wonder if I've just made a mistake. I thought I was part of the community and seems I just may be dragging you all down. I think basically put I'm screwing the clan. I'm going to have to really think before posting goodbye cause I know it will be for good. I wont meet the requirements to even get back in. Don't flame Karel or Joel they only were brave enough to post what so many think and won't say. Thanks for making me aware. -------------------- ![]() Thank you Garrett and Dallar. “The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them.

Kinda bad that people think that skillers are pointless. WG was a skiller clan at one time, i guess we don't have a future unless we do something we hate. Geoff she is stating her opinion, not giving anyone a guilt trip. You posted what you wanted and she did not bait you, so why do it to her when she told others to not flame you? Skillers feel like a burden now because everyone thinks its WAR WAR WAR, when it has been told plenty of times that this is not what WG stands for. -------------------- Friend's Forver The Long Road Ahead - 91/99 Prayer ![]() ![]() | ||||||||||

BTW, They have no skillers ML, nor do they have a skill of the week or anything similar. Their skilling events is like 4 max per month?
