     IRC Nickname: [Randy] Group: Raid Leader Posts: 5065 Member No.: 16 Joined: December 29, 2007 Total Events Attended: 499    | After much discussion about changing the requirements, it seems the clan was tied between not and 105. We have decide to raise the requirements to 105 for three months. At the end of this time, depending on how it went, they will either remain the same or go back down. Anyone under 105 (F2P) has six weeks to train up or you will be placed on the Non-warring list. What is the Non-warring list? The Non-warring list will be the members who no longer wish to participate in PvP events. However, on this list, you have no access to the war and PvP events forum, and you may not apply for any leadership positions. Also on this list will be Emeritus (no more honored emeritus!), but they WILL have access to the war forum. Raids and wars will be mandatory (unless supplied with a valid excuse) for anyone on our normal member list. The catch is, there is no limit to how much you stay. You must come for as long as you can possibly stay, it shows respect, even if you can come for 15 minutes. Please stock up on our ally's capes. TBE is team-40 and TDM is team-18. We plan on having lots of events with them which will require you to have their capes saved up. WG is going to become a dominant P2P clan once again. We plan on hitting up members raids and wars a lot more, with much more practice strategy training. For right now, all members are advised to stock up on P2P gear. Along with this, raid leaders and council will now be making sure that weekly raids take place and the turnouts increase. War skipping will be a thing of the past. WG will be getting our name out there, just give it time, every weekend from now on will have an evident improvement. A special project that I'm working on which will later include the event leaders is the quality of events. I can promise you all that you will see some strange and out of the ordinary events in the future. Don't overlook them and think they won't work. I advise everyone to try them and broaden your horizons. Elias has been working hard on the new recruitment movie. Here is a link.. http://www.wildernessguardians.com/misc/recruitmentpage.html (put your mouse over Fally and Varrock) Every city in Runescape will have a special page showing what WG offers for that city. For example, castle wars at castle wars, Zombie at varrock, etc. The looking glass will bring up the wilderness (PvP) side of WG. The size of WG is expected to rapidly increase, we're hoping to double in 4-5 months. Along with the new video will come the RSC recruitment team. We're looking for volunteers who can actively check the looking for clan section and post on their topics. The details of this job haven't been fully worked out yet, however drop me a PM if you're interested. Some people have brought up some issues in our leadership. This will be strongly looked over. Apologies will be handed out, ways will be changed, etc. Look, shit happens. Pick your heads up and realize that WG is stronger than it has ever been. Don't let a few people leaving get you down. WG still has a fabulous community, people come and go, but the environment stays the same. We will get over the hill and become what we all dream of. That's a promise. "The community has been so welcoming, being a ex leader of a clan I was suprised at the welcome I was given. For a clan like this I found Wg to be very open. Too which I like!" -Mtoise, Trial Guardian --------------------   | ||||

Also kudos to Elias for the hardwork on the recruitment video, it's coming together very well, and i'm sure that it will help bring in a large amount of people.

 IRC Nickname: Lefty Group: Emeritus Posts: 3340 Member No.: 1055 Joined: June 30, 2008 Total Events Attended: 211 | With the choice to switch back and forth between the lists, is there going to be a waiting period for those who are on the non-warring list and want to go to the normal list? If not, I suggest there is one of like two weeks per switch. --------------------      | ||||

| IRC Nickname: Group: Elite Guardian Posts: 7306 Member No.: 47 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 343 | The requirement raise is stupid, the vote was overwhelming in favor of the same requirements (50%) along with a training requirement (50%) so raising to 105 makes no sense to except a pointless poll created without the voice of the members in mind. TBE - Team 40 (green) WG - Team 9 (purple) TDM - Team 18 (yellow) Stay as they are (100 to apply, 102 to graduate) [ 36 ] [40.00%] 105 to apply [ 32 ] [35.56%] Stay as they are, but enforce a training requirement [ 17 ] [18.89%] 1) the stay as they are is 36 or 40% as compared to raising to 105 to 32 or 35.56%. 2) The two options that have the same requirements total 58.89% In America we call that a majority. -------------------- July 5, 2007 - June 27, 2011 | ||||

They aren't permanent. The results were so close anyway, we might as well see which one works better. -------------------- | ||||

| IRC Nickname: Group: Elite Guardian Posts: 7306 Member No.: 47 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 343 | Thought WG was also lead by democracy. The member's opinions actually mattered. If the poll has no weight then it will be just like any other pretend democracy, they vote but the result is already determined. P.S. We can discuss this on the topic or in PM, either is fine. -------------------- July 5, 2007 - June 27, 2011 | ||||

It was my decision. I voted no, but we should try it for a bit. Whichever requirements work better for WG will be kept. I'll make the assessment personally in three months' time. -------------------- | ||||
