If anyone dares close this topic, they should be advised they have been warned right now.

Whatever, don't blame me when this becomes a flame fest and something happens, good night now.

I think for half the time used in this argument it could've been used for sorting and doing something for it.

Archiving takes alot of time to do. Looking at the event recaps, there's pretty much a bit of images there to use but its right up to only end December 2007 and quite a bit there doesn't have screenies. It's good to post recaps with pics as a habit, this way its fun to view and helps in long runs. But perhaps those more screenies could've been left back in the old forum? If we are backdating to 3-6 months?

Sifting takes time and it helps with the recaps given they are dated. Unless you're asking for more and those that aren't posted yet. For a start, maybe just use what's available first rather than hold it for what's not available yet. If its pressing atm and add more eventually.

Would you like just the links or the full pic posted or sent to you directly? Bear in mind that it can take me quite some time to upload anything while on fucking dial up.

You can try using www.yousendit.com. Subscribe to the free account, it allows you to send multiple files and up to 1GB in one shot, for the free account and its safe (corporations use it). Not sure if it proves better than things for dial ups, but in cases for comparison to imageshack, its much quicker in my experience. And you don't have to copy and paste links - that waste alot of time. Only thing is you need to send to an email address.

I have been through the screenies and there arent many that were outstanding. There were screenies with events we had but they were scant.
If we want to show people our activeness and fun side then they need to be shots that are good, showing us haveing a good time.

It's a good pointer though.

Another way around it, which is a little tricky but it should always be honest as is. The updates have had alot of effects all around RS. I can't remember when was it but it should be back to somewhere in November 2007?

The updates have caused alot of shifts to the RS world, intensities of such changes are apparent. It is only natural that activities drop. Ongoing activities are still activities however few or undesirable.

If pictures aren't enough and credited to the latest changes then its only fair to add comments to those months besides letting images speak for themselves. Such as "this is what's going on despite...although...". Cases of downturns aren't and shouldn't be only for one clan. It is already rare enough that any clan have archives in library format to relate past activities in a showcase format. It doesn't have to be gleaming with great images if those were times of hard hits that has nothing to do with clan performances.

It's your call. Just that, no point in presenting something that isn't there or that it had nothing to do with clan performance already trying to do something inadequately available around it already to start with.

More suggestions is the last thing I need.
The only thing suggestions fucking do is tell me to change something or work on something.

I simply cannot provide picture of events, when every single event this clan has is EST based, at which time I am more likely than not working.
What happened to the "all timezone friendly" thing.
Went out the door.

Btw, I post any screenshots I take on the event recap.
Then delete the file off my computer.
I haven't taken any for a long time, as for a long time, too much favouritism to EST has been given.
Events which I attend lack numbers.

With a leader ranting his face off, I sometimes wonder.

You have to realise that not everybody on their computer keeps a folder for wg screenshots.
I keep the main ones (anniversary + lvl pics), but nothing normal really stays.

Btw, ranting fairy's face off doesn't do well to serve your reputation.
He's bloody well active, but again, do you see this ? No.
Like, does it matter if he gives a ****?
He's here + is around.
Do you seriously want to demolish the pillars of this clan?
If you keep picking off + singling out members, they'll leave.
Simple as that.

Your call. There are damaging and constructive suggestions. And some are solutions or eye-opener for betterment, not simply suggestions. I don't often say this but take a breather and cool off, too much work on your hands and not met for what's needed might can have its toll. Don't work on it if it's not what you want.

Give things time to react especially if its a new page of constructive lament.

Don't blame me - I just looked through my screenshots folder, and found *tw Runescape screenshots from the time period you are looking for. I don't play runescape, and when I do, I only take screenshots if I get a kill.
Both screenshots have been uploaded to:
http://www.wildernessguardians.com/screenshots

If you want me to go searching through the forum looking for screenshots, sorry, but I spend my time doing other, more important, things, like keeping the forums working, getting your site-files uploaded, and keeping teamspeak and everything running.

On the topic of the miniwar, you yourself have been telling us to be active and that if you are online at the time, you need to do your best to come.
I actually attempted to come to this miniwar, but it was full.

I apologize if I sounded harsh here.

WHAT!
I'd be more worried about ME leaving.
If anyone is going to demolish the pillars of this clan, it's it's own members for not fucking helping the leadership when it has requested help!
Don't you fucking blame me for slaving away despite being completely ignored by WG.

Picking off and singling out members is one thing, and I am prepared to start talking about the risks I've taken with YOU, but I'm not going to breach security forum privacy. Yet, you don't see me making a deal out of it. In fact, instead of being GRATEFUL to me...

Anyway, don't you fucking dare say I am destroying this clan.
This clan is destroying me so if you see a fucking quit topic don't get too surprised.

But you see.
I have done nothing wrong.
If you haven't realised by now, there's nothing to spy on.
You can't crash?

Umm, yeah.
I thought you would have figured that out by now.
I'm clean mate.

Now, back on topic plz?

Seriously, did you not read the section where I said I delete most screenshots?
Mmm, so how am I s'posed to find you screenshots, when z6 is offline?
I can't even access or sort through anything?
I wouldn't even have a clue what events were run then.

Oh, I have one screenshot.
Rhk war, I got the first kill.
Want that? hash.png

Good, I don't want to hear it.
Because that's what most people in WG are anyway.
Windbags.

They give opinions and suggestions and tell leaders what has to be done.
They'll come to events but when requests are made, it's always "Let someone else do the work" and that person has always been me and I'm fucking sick on not being able to rely on anyone, not even my fucking temporary council. Council members may last 6 months, a little longer if lucky/lazy.

ok well since you have resorted to calling me a windbad ill call you a blind royal asshole.
I respect you(how hypocritical)
But how about I give my fucking opinion know eh?

How about you take one thing at a time from best idea to the most retarded idea. Weed out the bad ideas, find the good,fix up the good ideas nice and slow completing it till its as good as possible with the help of council. Then you fucking look at what its done and marvel at it or get ass fucked. If you want something done, ask someone in the irc if they are up to it. If they don't do it. Give them **** b/c they volunteered and didn't get it done and wasted your fucking time. If they do it, give them a nice fucking chocolate chip cookie right out of the god damn oven.

Calm the **** down and relax. Ask for help and chances are, you will. You would be amazed who would help if they were guided along but not just asked and helped no more.

I fucking work my ass off, and I take in your orders to improve WG and when I ask for help I get ZERO... and when I let you know how fucking pissed off I am... YOU TELL ME TO DO MORE FUCKING WORK.

Yeah you try taking the **** I get and we'll see who calls who the close minded fool.

Have a good long talk with Jenny some day and ask her what it's like to be a WG primary leader. She was one for six weeks until she broke and had to resign.

If you are going to disrespect me, why should I have any fucking respect for you. Go buy a gun and shoot someone.

as i said don't take the **** and calm the **** down. How about you go out into an American Ghetto and yell white power.

So much for unbiased? Yea yea bullshit.

I know it takes its tool on you guys but seriously. Learn to relax and take things slow and ask for help from the members that actually care. You dont always have to be so serious. Take a chill pill.

I'm terribly sorry I failed to send pics, takes ages to find good ones. I'll go through them tonight, will definitely have some up tonight.

Also, my SS takes pics of F2p are messed up, you can only see the bottom half. Any solutions? If not, anyone know a good screenshot program i can use?

For mini-wars, prt screen.
Open paint.
Paste.
Crop it + copy.
Click for new paint sheet.
Paste, then save.

Do this all multiple times while fighting in f2p mini-wars + tanking.

Or just take 1 screenshot per event.

hmm, not my fault our government sucks, and don't you be saying I like our government, even Firelion can say I'm right on that i do believe(me lot loving the government and sending it letters with x's and o's etched on).

O wait /me sees an Anti-American racist. o.0 I wonder who that is.

I guess i don't fall under likable members right now. Well, now I see you judge people for what country they live in and believe....yea good fight.

Edit-Well, from your bottom post im not gonna reply anymore and will in essence "hold my tongue for now". And as I said you fail to see who people are and just look at certain views they have. Typical.
