      IRC Nickname: Chimpy Group: Banned Posts: 2521 Member No.: 1474 Joined: November 16, 2008 Total Events Attended: 133    | Ohai dur So i was thinking that we should have weekly raids (F2P or P2P) on the weekdays. Like wednesday or Thursday or something. That way we can actually PvP more and I think they'd be fun etc. We probably won't pull to many people, but do we ever on the weekend weekly raids?  So wat u guise fink?????? --------------------    | ||||||||

Those pull like 10 people at the most though, weekly times would be much better imo. -------------------- | ||||||||

We can't have too many weekly Raids. It ruins the purpose of pulling good numbers on the weekends. People would get tired if we have 6 big raids a week... -------------------- The First, The Last, and the Only ~FLO Never say never, because limits, like fears, are often just an illusion. ~Michael Jordan | ||||||||

 IRC Nickname: Mr Glennfase Group: Emeritus Posts: 3064 Member No.: 39 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 220 | I would absolutely get an e-boner if we started doing weekday raids. However, there are two problems for me. First, I'm PST, so by the time I'm even home from school it is 7:30 EST and 11:30 GMT. That's a little late for people. Second, my parents hate runescape, especially on weekdays. I think with me yelling on Teamspeak and screaming gibberish, my parents would see that I'm playing runescape rather quickly... -------------------- That's Mr. Glennfase to you.

I do not think that is necessary. I mean we already have 3 weekly raids, which have mediocre attendance. If we added 3 more weekly raids, then our attendance would go down and I believe we would be getting too much PvP. If we had one weekly raid that we varied from starting out at roughly 8 GMT, which would be 3 EST, to maybe 10 or 11 GMT, which would be 5 or 6 EST on a regular non-DST time, and it lasted 2 hours, then we should be able to get decent attendance and when 1 raid leader has to go they could pass the raid off to someone else. Just a thought. It would be a "fixed" raid time of sorts, but the time would still vary within a 3 hour window to allow for all time-zones to get their action. Then when a majority of people that are in school get out, we can change the times to fit the highest activity during week days then. --------------------      | ||||||||

Then we can change the fixed time around to do as needed. -------------------- | ||||||||

 IRC Nickname: rachellove Group: Council Posts: 6955 Member No.: 173 Joined: January 31, 2008 Total Events Attended: 305 | maybe someone like Joe could host an event if that isn't a problem with the staff. Sounds like Mickey might be the only one in staff that could lead. --------------------  Thank you Garrett and Dallar. “The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them.

 IRC Nickname: Angus0000 Group: Emeritus Posts: 705 Member No.: 572 Joined: May 3, 2008 Total Events Attended: 128 | I think it'd be best to work on more spur-of-the-moment events. The pulls may be shitty, but if you show people how much fun there is to be had even doing little things, you'll create a more active and alert community. I really wish WG would do more together without so much as a minute's notice, both PVP and non-PVP. --------------------  | ||||||||
