Ok.
I've had it.

I've been asking for event pictures for three months.
Firstly I asked my council to collect me images. Abs for one month, Jenny for another, Snowzak (I think) for another.
At this point we were 3 months behind in the archive. We are now 6 months behind. Eventually Jenny gave me 10-15 pictures... to cover 3 months. Obviously not enough.
And I have been constantly asking WG to take screenshots... do you? No.
You think screenshots magically appear on the clansite.
Well that's just great because I don't have all that many so when intros think we are inactive, we deserve it.

So then I ask Stokenut to collect pictures from clan members and then he informs me only 5 or 6 people even bothered giving him pictures... and they only gave a few. I've been waiting for two weeks now to get those, so I'm assuming he's forgotten.
I instructed him later on to ask members one by one for pictures, because I know, and the council knows, when we post requests as announcements, most of you... yes I'm talking to YOU, just forget about it and hope someone else deals with it.

How many of you even READ our call for screenshots? If you did, why didn't you help me out?

Once again, WG does nothing and expects me to slave away for them
I am really getting sick of this.

I will provide whatever screenshots I have now, and if I miss a few months (perhaps because I was overseas!), and people call us inactive, don't blame me. Our screenshots are a HUGE recruitment tool, but that's not the real reason I'm angry. It's the principle. If I need help, HELP ME. Don't just palm it off and wait for someone else to take action. Don't be fucking lazy.

I work extremely hard and all I asked for was 5 minutes of your time to inspect your computer and upload whatever screenshots you have. Thanks to absolutely NOBODY helping me out, I am going to do it myself, wasting my leadership time, which is limited as is. If someone can fucking help me out now and get me those screenshots, I'll use them. I need:

2007:
September, October, November, December

2008:
January, February

I am half tempted to not do work for WG because really, you need to learn I'm not your fucking slave. You can't rely on me to do every thing without your support. This is pretty pathetic.

And then come the posts that say "Yeah guys you shouldn't be lazy..." sometimes they will use the word "we" instead of "you"... but it's always the same. They never look at themselves. It's every member's fault except the 5 or 6 that gave images to Stokenut, and the new members. I've asked several times, and been bluntly ignored on the forums and the IRC.

Sometimes I have to wonder whether half of you are worth leading.
I'm going offline to cool down.
I'm going to check back in an hour to see if anyone can give me some last minute help by giving me a few fucking screenshots so I can use them to get recruitment going.

Whatever. Fine.
Just ignore me.
Go have a fucking mini since it's obviously more important than assisting your leader's long term agenda.
Or perhaps you could get your fucking priorities straight.

I haven't read it all yet, but it occurs to me you have penalized the clan as a whole instead of just a few.

I personally have only been in this clan for about a week and given 6 different screenshots on 2 different event threads. Im not sure if they were official, but I fucking tried.

Im new here, and im allready doing this, so don't act like your clan is falling out from under you, you just won't lift a finger to go look. If you were to LOOK into event topics you'd SEE the screenshots. I can't post recaps, so I post them there.

Please, read. Explore. Now... Back to reading.

EDIT: By the way, they aren't halfassed pictures Either. They are fully fledged, looking-fun, pictures. That's how they should be.
I got my chance to rejoin WG and im not gonna try to save it, ive pushed my limits a few times, but what you don't know is that some of us DO TRY. So some don't, big deal, family members get lazy. You aren't aquitted of that yourself. You are the leader, yes, and you do exert the most effort, yes, but isn't that expected? NO, its NOT expected for you to do everything, but instead of BITCHING like you do everything, why not single out those who DONT do anything and attack them, instead of a clan as a whole.


--------------

Okay. I read it all.

I take pictures (Personally) of the DKU inside WG And the Few events I attend. My life is up in the air (Im not asking for sympathy) so my event attendance is wayward. But im trying. Why not single out those who aren't trying?

Some of us are.

I'll show you the pics I have, but there isn't many. I've only been here for a week.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------

EDIT: I decided to put my whole post here. Maybe it'll show you that some are taking the time and consideration to take these pictures, while enjoying the event and looking back at them and laughing, not, as you say, just palming it off to someone else (Particularly the event holder)

CODE
Was a blast xD

Well, I know the whole part I participated in was xD

Eechye leads us up to RR's, to find Rainingg phats then a revenant hits me, and I run back, and we all dispurse like we're a flock of birds flying away just as we got scared xD

And then it follows us, and we all pile it hehe.

Well, i'll let the pictures describe it xD

11 pictures in total:

1.:

So that's it;D. It was a blast, i'd do it again ina second xD. It was hilarious watching the infamous WG be broken down by the wilderness they so vow to protect xD. All you see is people screaming "HELP HELP or HALP HALP!" Or other nonesense xD

Fun times. Gotta do it again sometime xD

And im sorry if thats not 'official' or if thats not an 'official' event. Like seriousely, come on. An event is an event.

I enjoy attending events, Okay? I enjoy leading them, I enjoy taking pictures, I enjoy making people have some fun.

Hope your event coords hold these attributes. I wouldn't do better by any means, but make sure your event coordinators are actually suited and WANT THE JOB, instead of pawning it off to people who don't want it


"Oh hey, the skill sector is abolished, let's make them Event Leaders and hope they can pickup the slack"

My two cents.

P.S. delete this double post after you read it, but FYI, I skipped the mini to write this. Just a FYI before you say i put minis before clan matters

And also FYI I was at the CWARS event with RoT and Adalius or w/e and all the other clans. Like DI ? or was it DF? Corr was there too. I didn't attend the 10v10 even though asked K?

Thank you.

How fucking dare you. The whole point of the request was to SAVE me from sifting through 6 months of event recap posts. Don't you EVER dare say I don't lift a finger to look at my clan. If I look at the topics, I'd be spending HOURS of fucking wasted time, which was the whole fucking point of this post.

I ask WG to present me with screenshots to save me time and this HAS been posted publicly several times and requested on the IRC. People Like fucking Eechye don't even look at these fucking topics even though I tell them personally to. I am half tempted just to suspend him for not giving a ****.

Oh yeah, I am angry by the way so if you want to pick right now to argue with me, go ahead. I'd be glad to take back the chance I gave you to return if you try to fucking piss me off any further.

Is this a subliminal way to say you think you are better than the event co-ords, Mr Trial Member? Like you said, you've been here two weeks. Don't you try and put them in their place.

Get rid of the attitude.

Get rid of the attitute? Hey, im not judging them, but when you just throw them into the rank (Or so it seems) how do you expect to get PERFECTION from people who have never been before?

Im sure they do a great job.
IM NO event coord, i can't do the job id suck at it. That what you wanna hear? It's true. I didn't say you don't lift a finger, BUT if you'd look for them, you'd find them.

Im not the only one who cant post recaps.

I said it in the last fucking post. I said, it takes me WAY TOO LONG to go through every bloody thing and the whole purpose of asking was to avoid hours and hours of topic sifting.

Of course I can look for them but it would take FAR too long. Instead, the members could fucking help me out and present me the screenshots.

Now go back to my previous post and read it again because clearly the message didn't hit you the first time.

I read the threat towards me, I don't mind posting my opinion. You know that.

Look lordy, you can't say we don't submit screenshots if you don't LOOK. Why not make a forum for screenshots? Not the gallery, or some post in Announcements cause nobody will look. How about something special, something where EVERYONE will see?

And don't give out rewards either, like that point system if you ever were thinking bout giving rewards out for submitting screenshots. Just a tip.

And irregardless if you look or not, that doesn't mean the pics ARENT There. IM sorry i wasnt around for your post about screenshots, but goddam please take my screenshotswith the least bit of a thank you.

AND IF I DO IT, im sure others do too.

Do we have to elect certain people to do forum trolling for WG?
Or are we SUPPOSED to find random screenshots while we're looking around the forums, save them, and give them to you? Id much rather continue this on IRC.

This has become more of a rant between us.

Regardless, I know deep down what you mean, BUT that doesn't mean *sigh* that you should just penalize us all for something only a certain amount of people are doing.
I mean seriousely. I try. I really do. And others do too. Why act like its ALL OUR FAULT?

And I don't know much about Eechye. Or well I won't say much really. But he's a good guy, and what part of the clan is he in anyhow? Is he even required to if hes just community?

Mm. Maybe I don't know enough aboutt he new changes.

Anywho, my point is we try, the screenshots are there, even if they are hidden, they are THERE. Please don't act like nobody takes a screenshot.

Some of us DO TRY. If we had every single person in WG taking 10 screenies per fucking event, you'd come to us and would tell us you're overstocked. Right?

Mm. This won't end well for me. Oh well, I always have been one to speak my mind.

Are you fucking thick?
For the third time... YES the screenshots are probably there but it takes me too fucking long to go through them all. Give them to me direct so I can save some fucking time.

If you don't get it after the third time I say it, I should just suspend you for plain stupidity.

PS- Since you appear to be so stupid, I'll give you a hint. All you are doing is pissing me off even more.

If you tempted to suspend me, Why not Just Clan Ban me, Save me the time having wake up very late at midnight to attend events. I still wondering why i even bother joining a clan with is American timezone instead of a timezone that suit me like SOK

I Dind't ask for this Rank Position, Much less i could care about these, Up to nearly 3 Year in WG, Have i EVER ask/beg for a higher rank. No.

In this past 3 Year, I contribute to this clan what 60% of Clan member won't feel like, You remember the time you are extremely short of money for Clan house, you ask for member and no-one wish to donate, I Step up and give you 5M for the Sake, When Clan Bank was introduce, There was short of item, I contribute a few stuff so that members can borrow it.

And i post this for Wind sake, She was extremely angry when Skill Sector to close, Her plan to 99 Herblore was ruin because she was FORCE to sell Herbs and buy guthans train Combat just to meet it to today Requirement. What happan to the "Friendly Environment"

Ok. DFudd, kindly shut up. We were fine if you hadn't replied so aggressively.

Eugene, we're sorry, we'll do our best. I'll personally do my best tommorow to get a good amount of screenies.

I regret saying what I did, after talking to lordy intelligently over IRC.

But that doesn't change much.

Irregardless, it was my mistake. You're right Snowy, and don't start with me Evil, you don't know me. I speak my mind, im not gonna sugarcoat it like you. Don't fucking start with me.

Best of luck Lordy. I won't be speaking for a while.

For my sake and yours.

Yeah thanks for the help and all... But we're talking about ages long past.
I NEVER bring up the fact that I passed out at my keyboard after the BD war... the war in which I was vomiting blood and shaking with coldness... after which I got ambulanced to Royal Perth Hospital.

Let's talk about what we are DOING for WG, not what we have DONE.

Where is the fucking friendly environment?
Don't look at me. I'm trying my fucking best.

Alright, the last thing I do before I go to sleep is close this topic. It's tearing people apart, so it's going to be closed.

If you have any further pictures for Lordy PM them to him with the topic title "Pictures."

I do not want to see this continue on and ruin our community anymore. I'm sorry Eugene for closing this, but it's turning into a flame war.

Okay, since you want to start with me then....

I dont sugarcoat (or as I would put it 'Suck-up') but I have seen the work lordy has been putting in along with Robbie to build these forums that every new member such as yourself takes for granted....

You take bites at lordy for him not wanting to go through threads to find event pics when he has been spending most of today re-doing our website while you enjoy the fruits of his labour....

How often is it you would say thanks to Lordy? surely not often enough, I have run a clan before, I possibly know what about 1/100th of the stress lordy goes through to keep Wg in the state it is....

If you want to see me speaking my mind go have a look at the aburn shooting thread....

Sorry bro. Stoke did ask me to send him some pictures, and I never got around to it. I'll send you some in a message. I don't think any of us meant to stress you out and I apologize for the laziness.
