We are having a council meeting soon and already have a large agenda to discuss. WG clearly has a fair bit of issues that need resolved and kinks to work out, and we are going to be doing it very very soon.

However, that is not to say that the group of us 6 knows everything.
In fact I'd venture to guess that what is important to us is probably stupid to a fair few of you.

So what I would like to know is.

What do you think needs improved about WG, specifically what should we be discussing and changing.

Now I realize that everyone could post an essay on what they think is wrong, but that is not what I'm looking for here. What I would like is for you to try and summarize problems in a few words each. This will be something for the council to look at and realize what people are concerned about, and it will give us a great starting or continuing point for the road ahead.

So for example instead of:
I think that WGs activity is horrendous and it is really killing us. I mean if you look at the other clans you can see that they are pulling 95% of all of their members to every event and we are pulling 7%, that is just ridiculous. Here are a few screenshots of our bad turnouts that I have taken and I'm just appalled!!!!

Try this:
*Activity

Hopefully we can get a pretty simple yet detailed list here of things YOU want to see addressed.


Suggested thusfar:
Aussie Events
IRC Environment
Possible Conflict Resolution Forum
Community Overall
Activity
P2p Events
War Skills
More Skilling
Application System

<jadi_simondz> we should have events where we just sit and talk
<jadi_simondz> like a weekly event (maybe 3 for EST, GMT and AEST) where council talk to us about whats happening this week and how we are going n stuff

*Activity
*IRC-no greetings or gratz's
*IRC-No descent convo's where many can join, maybe even trivia once a day/3 days or something
*Mentor System Please
*More Skill events.
*Less war focus, more skilling. 2 wars, 1 skill event= much better imo, maybe even 2/2 for each...
*Harder app system=Real members, not ones that are just an extra 3 opts to wars.
*Family/Friendly Atmosphere

SKILL WARS TOO MAYBE? W/ GLADZ?

First of all, activity sweep. Our memberlist reflects nowhere near our real strength.

Wars. Lot could be improved here. Mandatory hybriding is necessary, as well as warnings given to members who don't listen to the leaders. Basic eating and hugging ability as well, especially new members. The amount of people we have getting koed is ridiculous.

P2p. A lot us have paid a lot of money to be subscribed to runescape membership, so why is that all going to waste in a warring sense? Even a some more all-style f2p fights would entertain and give a lot more variety than the uniform melee+binds.

Timezone. I know I've failed as an 'Aussie timezone' raid leader, but has anything else been done? Members in and around australian timezone have to constantly wake up in the early hours of morning and lose multiple hours of sleep every weekend just to be able to go to any proper wars at all. At least give warnings to applicants in aussie timzone.

There are quite a few other things, these are just what I feel most important.

    - Activity
    - More confidence at wars (hybriding, tanking, etc.)
    - More war training (same reasons above ^)
    - Change the community, make it more friendly and helping like it use to be
    - New application system, too easy to get in right now

Many of the things I would of posted have already been posted. Good luck council, you got some work to do tongue.gif. Post in lvl3 if you need us smile.gif

I could help you out with the skilling if needed. I think you got all the major points just remember to care about issues tenderly and not put this agenda as a set planned thing because you have to be open about the topics and not only the council to discuss it but for the clan to agree and carry it out.

1.) Massive Activity...if you are not here, then there is the door
2.) More Community Events.. suggestions..CASTle WARS,, BARRows. Simple events all could attend. God Wars is good but limited in how many can attend.
3.) Old fashioned events....Possibly Revenant day..old skool clearing of the Wildy.

Good luck to the Council ..please listen to the members and be responsive. Don't let things fall on deaf ears.

Tbh, we have to do something about the Emeritus system.

Don't get me wrong Emeritus, I <3 the ones who are still somewhat active. But the ones who haven't been here in a month+, or haven't attended a f2p war, need to be dealt with.

That's just my opinion. :9

In my opinion there's not enough people in TS, it gets really boring just talking to myself then BPN comes in saying he wants my babies and he likes it up the bum. Even if people just idle in there it would be more fun happy.gif

i need think we need to raise our requirements (like Spenser suggested: having the fog robes)
this includes a change of our apllication system, because its pretty easy to join nowadays, every1 get accepted, and this isnt doing us any good..

We got a huge ml (like 140 people?), but im pretty sure we wont even pull 50 people to the War vs MoD on saturday..

* Bring back the mentoring system
* Do something about the activity
* General atmosphere isn't what it was like before
* War practice programs
* A clear step between introductions and applications. Create a new rank for Intros maybe?
* More concentration on the skilling aspect of the clan
* Council reports
