      IRC Nickname: Lefty Group: Emeritus Posts: 3340 Member No.: 1055 Joined: June 30, 2008 Total Events Attended: 211    | I have now seen 3 leaving posts from people who are great members within WG, and it seems like their reasons for leaving are very much alike; our PvP isn't up to their standards. So this had me thinking of what do the people of WG want. Where do you want us to go? What is your goal? What do YOU want? This can be anything from more skilling events, to an increased and enforced attendance, to bigger raids, to a new training programme. A good way to make sure that you idea is fail-proof is to know that I am more than likely going to ask "Why do you want this and how is this going to make WG better?" Be able to answer that, or answer that in what you want. I am just curious.  --------------------      | ||||||

As I said: Why do you want this? How do you think this is going to improve WG? Hopefully that will give you enough to expand more on your thoughts. -------------------- | ||||||

^ +1 I would also love that, and would love for them to see that now isn't the time to jump ship because one person is leaving for a similar reason.
Why do you want more P2P? Do you think it is going to bring WG back to the sense of old-school? What do you think we can do to try to make that change? If it is P2P, would you be willing to lose stuff in PvP too? Come on! Everyone start expanding more on your answers! I am trying to ask questions to get you to think what you say out more so you can give a better and more thorough reply. -------------------- | ||||||

| IRC Nickname: dieyou2000 Group: Elite Guardian Posts: 711 Member No.: 1300 Joined: August 28, 2008 Total Events Attended: 158 | Yes I'm completely open to losing stuff in p2p pvp worlds. I pk solo all the time sometimes in wild even though I know I'll get owned by myself. As for why I want p2p...I just personally think it's more fun. I do like the idea of the megaraid and I think anyone active on rs or in the irc should be made mandatory to come or else you get a warn, because in my opinion, yes skilling is good, but let's be honest if anything brings a clan together more than anything else it's warring and raids. -------------------- | ||||||

Shouldn't get ideas like that mate, I had my own private plans for over 3 months, Lee and Billy decided together, Rob alone as well My leaving was never really to prove a point, Sad to see you and others think that all of our leavings are because of that. To add to the subject: I'd say PvP would be good for WG but not many would like it, so instead of that just add a little more PvP and don't wait until the summer for a skill war, get it now, make both sides feel happy. --------------------  MSN: [email protected] IRC: Rage|Mike at SwiftIRC and SeersIRC Drop me a comment, click to view my RSC profile!

I think Personally there looking to have Fun Pking by joining an F2P powerhouse and pk and burn through rune sets all night long. For WG i guess i would kinda like WG to be more of a PVP Powerhouse too however I also know that this is not what WG has always been about i believed WG was always about the good community we have and i think we do have an absolute epic community in WG atm. I just think some people are more orientated and want big fights and WG to be able to fight like DF were as other people want to skill or do there own thing and are not bothered about being an F2P powerhouse i think we need to come to some sort of compromise or something i am not really sure. But i do not think WG will turn into a clan which pulls 300 opts of lvl 120s who return all night long. --------------------   | ||||||

 IRC Nickname: DyIan Group: Emeritus Posts: 1205 Member No.: 1638 Joined: January 15, 2009 Total Events Attended: 107 | I think we should keep the regular level requirement but have a training program. Also we should try and work in some skilling events because we can't be purely PVP. Also for people to quit leaving because of a "rough patch". Every clan has a few problems --------------------   | ||||||

 IRC Nickname: Sithofwookie Group: Ex-Member Posts: 2842 Member No.: 815 Joined: June 11, 2008 Total Events Attended: 48 | Here's my two cents: I think WG needs to decide on to cater to the skillers or the pvp people more and get it over with and move on after sorting through the pros and cons of both because obviously we can't cater to both equally. -------------------- | ||||||

 IRC Nickname: Mickey Group: Emeritus Posts: 5305 Member No.: 48 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 282 | Feedback is appreciated by all of the leaders, so keep it coming. Personally, I want some people to start pulling their weight instead of the pissy excuses we get for not attending certain events, why, because I hate seeing good members leaving because things certain aspects aren't good as they SHOULD be. --------------------    | ||||||

| IRC Nickname: dieyou2000 Group: Elite Guardian Posts: 711 Member No.: 1300 Joined: August 28, 2008 Total Events Attended: 158 | I just find it a bit funny that the first week we re-implemented scheduled raids, none of them were held. American raid was cancelled to do AC vs VR which fine I can understand. Aussie raid was cancelled (since there is no recap up I'm assuming) for reasons I don't know since it is 3 am for me, and now gmt raid is cancelled because of...the council meeting? The thing is even if we had held any of these raids we wouldn't have gotten more than 10 or 15 people, considering by the end of our allied fight against VR we had something like 10 members there. All I'm doing right now on RS is ranging til 99 for pvp this summer, so I'm not going to make decisions now, but I will say that if by the time I'm 99 if I haven't seen improvement I will be leaving for a more pvp focused clan. Maybe that will just never happen in WG, I don't know I've only been here for maybe half a year. -------------------- | ||||||

 IRC Nickname: Wayne|Eregion2 Group: Emeritus Posts: 3087 Member No.: 156 Joined: January 25, 2008 Total Events Attended: 8 | Separate requirements for warriors and skillers and WARS in single combat zones. Multi-combat wars are just retardedly senile. "Look we got a bunch of people and we're going to smack you until you die lawl." Absolutely retarded.  I HATE multi-combat wars passionately, but single-combat wars would be a huge priority for me to attend because they show skill and ability. You can't rely on 50 other people to help you kill your target it's just you and them and if you get a kill you've damn well earned it. There's a sense of accomplishment in it that two gangs of caveman thwacking each other with clubs just can't match. --------------------  | ||||||

 IRC Nickname: rachellove Group: Council Posts: 6955 Member No.: 173 Joined: January 31, 2008 Total Events Attended: 305 | I just want peace. I want to sign in IRC and love all my friends with a hello. To have great talks with the epic members of WG, to help the new members feel welcome and to get to know everyone. I want to sign on the forum and read the pm that my friends send me with their troubles and be able to help them sort it out. I want to do my 100 days of training my combat without  people talking about me behind my back. Saying things that is non of their business and just causing more drama.I want to hold challenges and events and feel like part of the clan. I want to buy stuff for people at GE, loan my equipment to those that need it, encourage others to achieve their goals, attend events, skill wars and congratulate everyone when they succeed. That is what I really want from the clan. Just to be able to love you guys. --------------------  Thank you Garrett and Dallar. “The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them.

| IRC Nickname: Group: Banned Posts: 2447 Member No.: 114 Joined: January 8, 2008 Total Events Attended: 149 | I'll admit, I haven't been logging on to rs as much in the past few days. I'm either talking on irc in different channels, or I'm afk, or I just don't want to go to yet another pvp type event that will last more than 1 hr. I don't have any real goal beyond 85 slayer, yet even that goal is boring to me. I don't have the funds or much want to get higher ranks in herblore. I won't quit, because I don't have anything else to do with my time. And if you're complaining about the attendance to raids/wars, compare it to most skill/community events. -------------------- | ||||||
