So... if you guys want attendance so bad why have a rank that's made for people who can't keep up event activity? It's just common sense.

You clearly havent been in WG long enough to understand emeritus, we are people who have all pretty much been highly ranked or very well respected within WG at some stage & we have contributed a large amount to the clan. Hell, the amount of Emeritus that are ex-staff/council is probably nearly the majority.

I don't think Saad want's attendance 'so bad', but like any other clan member I would expect it is nice to be recognised for making the effort to go.

Ememritus isnt a reank just for people who are event inactive, its for those who have earnt enough of the clans respect to get given it, don't worry I doubt you will be offered it.

Really? Well if all the Emeritus flame bait, can't spell and rant at the other staff for not getting top event status priority in a semi-retirement rank like that I think I'm happy with Guardian to be honest.

Keanu, you don't show respect which is why you will never get it.

You see to wonder why I and many others dislike you, well you just never get it and probably never will.

Now leave off these troll posts because WG, and I do not need to hear your opinion.

I think its because when you update attendance, the emeritus box isnt ticked, so the emeritus names dont show.

but the people marking attendance should still be ticking off every name on their list

Maybe a pm to staff that do the attendance for the event that you attend. Bringing it to their attention at the time would be helpful. I'm sure it is somehow an oversight that can be fixed.

I spoke to Gorge about this while I was still emeritus, I wasnt getting attendance, and he said that it was basically up to you to make sure you get the attendance points. So make sure you take ur own pics.

You might want to remember Keanu, if not for those "useless" emeritus members there wouldn't be a WG for you to be a member of.

Same. I never update raids or pkri/wars or whatever. I like the raid leaders/warlord to do that.

What angers me the most, and im sorry to the emeritus, is that you have no attendence reqs anymore for emeritus, yet you all still moan that your not getting your attendence points? I tried to stay off this topic, for aslong as I could..IF YOUR ACTIVE ENOUGH TO TRY AND CLAIM YOUR ATTENDENCE COME BACK TO YOUR PREVIOUS GUARDIAN RANK, AND GET THEM THAT WAY.

/Rant.

Ohh and also lee, me ranting shouldn't stop you from doing your job. It's not about emeritus being active or ranting about these things. It's your job to do it, and you aren't fulfilling it.

Now do it right and stop crying.

It would help if you did.

Lee: I am not active at all, but I would still like to get the attendance and the war count that I deserve. One event a month still adds up to something that I have earned.

If you think that I am active enough to be a guardian, then I laugh.

Inactive Emeritus complain about EL/RL not doing their job correctly. EL/RL not doing their job complain about Emeritus being inactive. Guardians get involved and get bitched at whichever side they take. Council say they're doing their part and don't actually address the problem going on.

I like this. It makes up for the lack of drama while Gene's away.

I think, we should all calm down & rethink things.

JC was obviously drunk when he made that message, well, hopefully anyway lol.
And Joe is right, it's given to anyone with Higher Guardian if they choose to go into retirement.
Emeritus is for people who can no longer play runescape like they did when they first started playing (5 hours a day or so), they probably only come on to check how things are, check updates, maybe Kingdom. People who have contributed to the clan (Which explains Higher Guardian rank) and still wish to be a part of it, that's who Emeritus is for.

This could just be a technicality misunderstanding, like Jadi (who is an ex-event leader) has said that the Emeritus box might not have been turned on when updating attendance, so the people updating the attendance thought that since the name of the person they were trying to update was not listed, assumed that that person was not a part of WG.

I feel that even though Emeritus is for retired members, we shouldn't be telling Emeritus to not come to events, in the end of the day, Emeritus is stil a part of the clan and WG, Lordy, previous Council and current Council has depended on Emeritus before, so I feel that they should have their attendance updated as well. Since it is likely that Emeritus will come back to Wg's main ranking system some point along the WG train, we should encourage that thought.

We shouldn't be putting any blame on anyone, just deal with the matter at hand. Saad feels as though his attendance hasn't be updated, so someone should update it, I'm sure they has been screenshots in the recaps to prove this.

And if anyone else is in a position like Saad, they should speak up to one of the Staff.

~Abs
