You know Indi...for a leader here, you sure spam alot and hardly EVER give anything constructive to your posts. If that's how you want to be, fine but don't subject the rest of us to your stupidity and nonsense. Thank you.

With that said, and to stay on topic, all I can say is you can't force people to train. It never has and never will work. Honestly, I don't think there's anything the clan can do except for punishing those who won't or don't train.

For me, training is boring as hell. Combat, herblore, agility...it's all boring. I can perhaps stand to do it for about a half hour until I'm falling asleep at the computer. It's just not fun for me anymore.

 I won't train if I don't feel like it.

The only reason I do this is because I just can't enjoy runescape when I'm forced to do things. I do things on rs on impulses I have at the time of playing. If I feel like going Gwd then I'll go gwd. If I feel like doing trouble brewing then I'll go play trouble brewing.

There are only two events which used to motivate me to train: Operation Purple Haze (Simply because everyone else was doing it and there was a lot of people to talk to who were equally as bored as me.) and a very important war. Mainly because wars were rare back then and just like with oph almost everyone was participating in it.

All my other levels are gained by doing what I felt like at that time.

Perhaps you should learn to read too then Indi. If this question was raised for the members and not the "leaders or tertiaries", there should be no reason for you to post anything, correct?

Thanks Mugsy, it's good to be "back". Now you'll get some other points of view and perhaps those you won't particularly enjoy reading but mean something just the same. Case in point.... /me looks above.

 There is nothing wrong with having a little fun post. There is also no reason for you to be so uptight about things. When the time comes for me to be serious, i always am and take my point others point of view into consideration.

There are plenty of other posts by everyone of which only you and yourself alone point out that i post. Now if it was important, don't you think others would agree with you?

 Unfortunately, no, I don't think other would agree with me (and be vocal about it)because they don't like being a target and will do what they're told, when they're told to do it. I, on the other hand, love to point out things that I see regardless of the consequences. That's what makes me different than almost everyone in this clan. I'm sorry you had to be the one I'm speaking about, and you're not alone, however, judging by your responses, I'm sensing a little "guilt".

There's a right time and a right place for your "fun" posts. This is an important discussion to quite a few people, therefore, fun posts should be held until a more appropriate time.

On topic: There is really no incentive for those who have reached maximum combat to continue training it. You can't go above 99 in any stat (save for potions, familiars or other non fighting ways), so why continue to train it? If you have 99 herblore, for example, would you continue to make potions? Probably but only because of the monetary factor. But what about agility? You wouldn't continue to train after 99 because there is nothing further you can do or achieve by doing so...same could be said for combat.

 How about having more stealing creation events? It is not exactly training, but pretty much everyone can enjoy it and use it their benefit. For people who are training combat, the SC gear gives double exp for I think around about 30k exp. So assuming everyone gets 20 points or more, every SC game is worth like 15k experience.
