WG is one of the most prestigious clans in Runescape.
Every day we get 5 to 10 introductions.
This is far too much and the terrible truth is, most will not make it.

This is your essential guide to surviving the application process.

1. Introduction and Communication

The Wilderness Guardians requires that every applicant post an introduction in the introductions forum. After this, you wait for 3 full days before you may apply, or else if you fit into one of the exceptional criteria, you may apply straight away.

With any one of these criteria, you may apply instantly following your introduction:
i) You were previously in this clan
ii) You have been referred by a current member
iii) You have more than 25 posts on these forums
iv) You were once a member of a top 20 RAW clan
iiv) You attended a public clan event (proof needed)

If you don't fall into any of the above, your only option is a three day waiting period.

2. Applying for Membership

Once you are eligible to apply, simply fill out this form and post it in this forum. If you have any questions, consult an application manager.


Before you copy this form, read these important notes:

1. The form should take 10 minutes to complete
2. It's better to write more than less. If you rush the application, you'll be asked to remake it.
3. None of the questions are optional
4. If you haven't received feedback from an application manager after 48 hours, PM a leader.

Assuming your application is successful, you'll be accepted into WG as a Trial Guardian.


3. Trial Membership

If your application is successful you will be made a trial guardian. Being a trial is almost like being a full member, but trials have less benefits. You should be aiming to become a full member of the clan. To know how to Graduate to being a full member, please view this topic: How to Graduate.


As of recent, you must now graduate within 1 month of being promoted to trial. If you have not met the promotion requirements within this month, you are in danger of losing your rank. Being a trial member is a test of your activity. If you have real life issues which prevent you from meeting the requirements, state them.

We have tried to make our application system as simple as possible. If you are at all confused, please let a Tertiary leader and above of your problems. The list of people you can contact (along with everybody in WG) is here: Important Contacts
