I don't mean to be rude, but if you post an event under 12 hours before it starts, you can't expect a great turnout.

i even posted the link in irc for wg members to see SEVERAL times

australians and nz's are already asleep at that time so you cant expect them to come.

also the times are totally not great for the clan. we are more GMT based.

things like this need more preperation, and considering how much we pull to normal raids, you were never going to be happy

Well I was at work tonight so I would have gladly come if I wasn't.

Raids that are planned by guardians of any rank usually don't go over well. That's just how its always been. That time also probably isn't the best as most GMT would be in bed and EST would probably be out on a Saturday night.

You had the right intentions, sorry it didn't turn out as well as you had planned.

Now back to the good part!

there was a good number of people online and i didnt get a fucking reaction from them at all even though raid details were bieng spammed in the lobby so this quite isnt my fault

ok but

1. new skill is released, so everyone wants to no life it.
2. raid was on a saturday night, notice how most wars/raids are on friday or sunday? because people mostly go out saturday nights
3. just because people are 'online' on irc, doesnt mean they are at the computer
4. unless a raid is mandatory, you are going to have to offer something enticing for people to come. just saying "yo dis be normal boring f2p raid, you will lose rune and rage" isnt going to work. doing some creative like joe's pk trip is better (even though it didnt work, but it did better than yours).

To be fair, you lefty and Veph went...
Other than that, only like 2-3 people were online when I logged off to go to bed.
I'm sorry I didn't come, but after I helped to spam it for you, it was half midnight and I had to sleep.
I'm sorry it didn't go to plan.

constructive is giving a shit enough to put some effort into the clan instead of going around flaming people who do.

I was afk and came in time to go have fun at CWA with some of the clan instead. We ended up walking up to the dung place and playing a while too.

To me the disappointment is right here. Read up and see if you think this is what the clan is all about.

Thank you Garrett and Dallar.

I absolutely love WG and that's why i planned this raid despite the times bieng wrong or it bieng a fucking saturday night.
All i wanted was for everyone that was online to fucking come out and have a good time but no, everyone was aiming for Rank 1 in dungeoneering.
The least you could fucking do is put aside 1 or 2 god damned hours away from the new skill to come and have fun with other clan members, i mean this is honestly rediculous.

lets look at it this way.

Most members of this clan are old skool members (1 year + in the clan)

Therefore, they have attended many raids throughout their time in WG.

I myself would have attended 200+

When you try and attend a raid these days, where double digits are rare, raids are not fun, its a hassle.

So I completly understand why people would rather train the new skill than to go 'raid'.

its just how things are atm kung.

Once we win a war again, people will be motivated to raid, but to win a war, we actually have to have one. the excuse of it being the clan anniversary is pretty stupid considering we havnt done an anniversary event in nearly 3 weekends? (have been inactive so not sure about specs)

if we want out of this rut, we need to win a war and move up and onwards

Some didn't even have the luxery excuse of dunging to not show up. It is pretty sad really, no one cares. You can illustrate all you want that we didn't do this or that. Fact remains were dead in the water and don't give a shit.

And in order to win a war we need to raid to practice so basically if people don't start showing up to raid's were fucked.
