      IRC Nickname: Squelchyfish Group: Emeritus Posts: 625 Member No.: 38 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 71    | On the old forum we used to have propper recaps where its actually concluding what went on. Now 90% of the time all you guys do is edit the title to say 'recap' and then slam it in the recap forum, so after going through 4 or 5 pages of "100%" you might be lucky enough to find one post that says "o this was good" -__- So to conclude my lazyness rant for the new forum:
Lol only joking :/ - we need to start making propper recaps instead of either quoting the origional topic and putting it somewhere else, or just editing the title to say recap. - thats not a recap! thats just the origional topic! >_________________________> --------------------   "Take lobsters because I don't want us to die" -HisLordship on WG pvp PKing, 26 April 2010. | ||

 IRC Nickname: Pazenon Group: Emeritus Posts: 1477 Member No.: 33 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 79 | Yeah I find that annoying sometimes, too. I suggest making a new topic, other than the event's original topic, designated to discuss the event itself instead of going through 5 pages of attendance like you said. -------------------- | ||

 IRC Nickname: Dnovelta Group: Emeritus Posts: 2750 Member No.: 130 Joined: January 20, 2008 Total Events Attended: 137 | I was thinking the same thing, but never bothered to post a rant because it didn't bother me enough. It was just a slight annoyance to have to load another page (which with my internet can take a while) in order to see how things went, while everything before that was "I'll be there!" --------------------  | ||

| IRC Nickname: Group: Banned Posts: 2447 Member No.: 114 Joined: January 8, 2008 Total Events Attended: 149 | When I've done that, I do put in a recap in the original post. I have edited it to at least give some information on what happened. [Over/Recap] The original event is in Quote, and the recap is above or below the event info. -------------------- | ||

 IRC Nickname: Tnuac Group: Emeritus Posts: 1806 Member No.: 51 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 58 | Every event, be it a success or a failure, is a learning experience. Its worth making the most out of every one. Each event use to have its own recap. Then people started editing the recap into the existing topic and now, sadly, there's no recap to the point you don't even know if it was a win or a lose. If leaders don't have time to recap things, they should allow a member to do it, and I'm sure there'd be happy to. I use to write recaps all the time, just for the fun of it. -------------------- ~Aetas: carpe diem quam minimum credula postero~ "Seize the day and place no trust in tomorrow"  | ||

| IRC Nickname: Group: Guests Posts: Member No.: 0 Joined: January 1, 1970 Total Events Attended: 1 | I actually think members should write the recaps anyways. Perhaps the last person alive in a war or one of the ones who survived the whole thing. Leaders here have plenty to do and don't really need to make recaps. However members who want to actively participate in the clan should get the option to make one so in my opinion that should be encouraged. -------------------- | ||
