      IRC Nickname: Rage|Mike Group: Clan Friend Posts: 1948 Member No.: 1238 Joined: July 29, 2008 Total Events Attended: 132    | Well guys, being a new member I decided I'd just stick to do a 'read only' on this forum until I understand WG better and become more involved. But I noticed one thing, A lot of people seem to think negative about the community in it's current state Clearly, I'm in no position to comment on that but I made this topic to state THESE facts that I thought I should share with you. Before I joined WG, I can tell you me and alot of friends were DYING to get in your IRC, it's one of the best IRC's ever, fights arent often from what I've seen, it's really active (TDM's IRC doesn't have a lot of talks). TBE have an active chat as well, but I can tell you that they fight daily and it's hard to communicate with people there. WG's TS, I'll quote a friend of mine in TDM:
In communication skills, WG is clearly one of the best clans and in our WG-TDM-TBE alliance, WG is the top by far. Two terms that really play a vital role in a community clan: Skilling and Warring, WG right now balances BOTH of them, TDM and TBE don't have a skill of the week for example, and TDM suffers alot of bad pulls in RAW full outs, while TBE doesn't have good skilling and warring is looked upon more. I compared WG to these two clans in these aspects because they are some of the top clans (Community wise) and WG is truely a great clan, sure from what I've heard there are activity problems and all that but trust me, all this can be fixed, I'm sure that you've seen Eugene (Although I don't know him personally) fight for this clan for a lot of years, what was the result? WG is one of the few clans that survived that long! I'm not trying to offend our allies or anything because I've been involved with them in the past a lot, but what I'm trying to say is, everything can be fixed, and if you want stuff to be fixed then stop looking at the negative sides, and look at the positive sides, I only listed VERY FEW of the positive sides as I'm sure there are a lot more. So yeah, just wanted to tell you guys how the OUTER worlds thinks about you and what you really have since I'm a new clan member, for example did you think I would get TDM to ally with WG (Yeah I allied WG with TDM back in my days there  ) if I didn't know their community was awesome? Think about it And as I said earlier in my post, I'm only going to list these positive sides and I'm for the time being staying away from debating clan matters as I'm not an old member in the clan --------------------  MSN: [email protected] IRC: Rage|Mike at SwiftIRC and SeersIRC Drop me a comment, click to view my RSC profile!

You are fresh from other clans, and I think I can trust your word over my own. To be completely honest I like our community now. But a few weeks ago I think it was complete crap. Anyways WG is currently being pulled out of a slump. The worst is over, it only gets better from here IMO. --------------------   | ||

It's the people saying that we're going through them who cause them to happen. -------------------- | ||

 IRC Nickname: Kiwi011 Group: Emeritus Posts: 3052 Member No.: 40 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 21 | BAH dont just read, POST We want to see your opinion...at least I do...I mean half the people in wg would probably rather not see my opinion or don't care. But you posting will help you get more familiar with wg than just reading...not to mention more wg will know you also. SO POST FFS If people don't like what you have to say screw them and ignore it. Plenty of people still want to see it. Thanks for this post also. Was great and takes a great trial member to do so. GJ --------------------  | ||

 IRC Nickname: Wayne|Eregion2 Group: Emeritus Posts: 3087 Member No.: 156 Joined: January 25, 2008 Total Events Attended: 8 | Great post m8.  From my experience WG tends to go up and down in a cycle that repeats about every 4 to 6 months (sorry for the pessimism). Now we just have to keep going up instead of resign to another slump.  I really respect the people who have stuck through it all. --------------------  | ||

With that kind of attitude, we have nowhere to go but up! --------------------  | ||
