Anyway I'm gonna copy the history here so you all read it.

Early 2009

The early days of 2009 were somewhat weak days in comparison to the clan's noble history. To begin, 3v0lution_X, an ally of WG, was torn in a leadership rift, and soon collapsed, and out of it, two new clans were formed. The alliance was terminated. At this time, a new system of applications was created, in order to improve the flow of applications. The first weekend of the year saw WG attain rank #10 on the RAW list of top CWA clans, a big achievement indeed. There were two major victories in the early part of the year. A victory against CR, and a victory against RE. These two official RAW wins affirmed to everyone that WG had plenty of strength... but the clan was still lagging behind the rest of the clan world... who were now all competant in PVP. Awakening to this, WG immediately began taking steps to become more PVP-conscious. One of the early attempts to do this, was His Lordship's siding with The Titans clan, against Violent Resolution, who had angered much of the clan world by crashing fights and flaming. Lordship pleged WG to the cause of counter-crashing VR. This meant crashing VR's planned fight with DF. These two clans were the two strongest clans of the day, and going against either of them would be dangerous for WG. Ex-WG-Warlord Dalejamesw, now in DF, made many threats against WG, causing him to get banned. In the end, His Lordship conceded to the expressed wishes of his co-leaders, and abandoned the cause, but not before VR directed much anger toward WG. Mugger84, the warlord of the time, was instrumental in ceasing the hostilities. We will never know what would have happened if WG continued their plege to the Titans, but as a result of pulling out, WG lost an opportunity to dive deep into the realm of PVP... though admittedly we were saved from VR's vengeance.
As February came about, long-time member Gorgemaster was elected into the council. At this time, WG started stepping into PVP. His Lordship left for Vietnam, and the clan was placed in the hands of the second-in-charge, Kingrandy0. Randy, alongside Mugger84 and Arsenalfan32, saw to it that PVP was given more attention. WG, after so many years, abandoned the full-out war. It was now PKRI's. CWA would only be on occassion, with Megaraids becoming the feature event of the clan's weekend. His Lordship hoped intently, that the full-out war would make a comeback. Mid February came around, and all of a sudden, there grew a tension between the leaders and the clan members. The central figure in this saga was Mugger84, who found himself getting harrassed by several clan members, and fighting back. Events started to lack, as the leadership circle pushed for greater PVP activity. His Lordship, at this time, introduced new set raid times to be strictly adhered to. But it was too little. Too many members had become disgruntled with the clan's lack of progress. In the course of two days, the clan lost almost 20 members, who quit at the same time, including Mugger84, the warlord, who banned himself. WG was left with a core of loyal members, upon which everything had to be rebuilt and improved. Counting his blessings, Lordship began work promptly. The council would remain lacking. Poor timing also saw Anatcrafter leave the council reasons due to lack of time to lead. His Lordship could no longer allow the council to maintain such a high turnover rate. Promotions into the council would be more difficult than ever.
Following the mass leavings, His Lordship renewed the clan server, and upgraded the clan website, working hard on recruitment. Kingrandy0 and Gorgemaster would together work on bringing the JaGeX cup to WG, and remind the clan that there was more to Wildguard than PVP. The clan had suffered big blows, but as this very history has shown, WG's resilience and ability to recover swiftly is its great strength.

Mid 2009

Then, in blew the summer wind. As summer came in, so too did a new strength and spirit into this old, seasoned clan. Remember, the clan was still crippled from the loss of many great members, and was in its weakest state since D-Day in December 2006. Things were dire. But His Lordship had finally come out of his studies, able to provide his full time services to WG. And Back To Own, the new warlord replacing Arsenalfan32, forged a new path down p2p PVP wilderness. Over the next two months, the clan transformed, What was once a crushed group of core members became a flourishing community once more. Many major changes took place, the most important of which was the creation of a required equipment list. The demands on members banks allowed them to sustain much higher quality raids, and very soon, Back To Own's innovative wilderness leadership saw the greatest recovery in morale and power since Kenshln and KF.
The rift in 3v0 that happened several months earlier caused the clan to divide in two, and WG had allied the new break-off clan, Zero Tolerance. The two clans had been allies for about three months, but ZT was undergoing inner turmoil. It was only in late August that the alliance could properly grow.
Most other clans experienced what is described as a very uninteresting summer. People had expected so much more from the clan world. But WG seemed to flourish. As the autumn of 2009 creeped in, the clan was left with a breath of fresh air, ready to continue growing.

So yes, it's taken me 5 hours so far, and I'm expecting it to take another 3.

I hope you ALL go and look at it and see if you can find anything that needs updating, that I've missed.

Also read the history... and LOOK OUT for that secret I put onto the bookshelf page.

Gorgemaster collected all the photos, collected the leadership info, and scanned the clansite for the required changes.

You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed
So you can open one that leads you to the perfect road
