Leaders

Over the last couple of meetings, we have all agreed that we definitely need more planned warring events. We've agreed on many things. However, reality is, we haven't been accomplishing that.

We gotta get back in the motion of planned fights.
I don't want to be the guy that says this, but someones got to drop the hammer. We seriously need to be making more planned events, especially with summer coming up for the majority. We have to be able to hold the members we have now, and with our pvp activity, we're not going to hold on very well.

We're not going to survive living off of weekly P2P raids as our main pvp event. We're not going to survive on Weekly D&Ds and ToGs.

Just look at the events for the past months. The events below are ANY events relating to any fighting activity with other players. (CWA, Fights pits, PvP, etc). This is based off of topic makers for event recaps, so it may be a bit unreliable.

PvP Event Hosts for May + bit of june
Bto - 11
Vephy - 1
George - 2
Glenn - 4
Rachel - 1
Robbie - 1
Lordy - 1
Andrew - 1

Lets not forget about Non - PvP events either:

Vephy - 1
Lefty - 1
David - 3
Saad - 9
George - 3
Rach - 1
Andrew - 1
Fin - 1

Its hard, I know, especially since our strength has weakened alot. Activity has failed hard. Most of the clans we usually fight have surpassed or strength. However, we still have a job to do, and it HAS to be done if we ever want to regain any of our strength back. Warlords and Raid leaders; we've all been slacking in our job, and we haven't been trying hard enough. Theres plenty of things that each of us could do better.

Glenn, I know you have a great life now and stuff, and I know that you just finished taking the SATs. I know you got a girlfriend(s) # and stuff now, and theres probably a ton of things you'd rather be doing then playing runescape.

DZ, you're getting older and you're going to eventually be doing something with life. I know with your work schedule that it's hard to keep going.

I know that Andrew has alot going on right now, and george has been busy with life too.

I have been questioning my activity myself ever since getting raid leader. I didn't know whether I wanted to keep going, or if I even deserved my position with how much work I was doing.



=================




We can't hold this up for much longer. We need help. I know that it'll be hard finding clans our strength, but we can't give up now. DZ and Glenn, you have told me that you guys are struggling and questioning your activity. I don't want you guys to quit or throw the towel.

In my history of WG, There are no other two people I would choose to help bring back WG's warring section. We've each accomplished so much, and now we're in a crucial period where we either bring everything together or die. We can't fade into inactivity now when our activity is expected to finally rise up.

We have some of the most dedicated members in the past couple of years as Staff. You guys have been there for WG. We've experienced alot together.

There will be a time we will finally have to let go. There will be a time where we simply don't care anymore, or when we finally have to move on to our lives. Slowly, one by one we will eventually fade out. However, we are at a point where WG needs us most; its do or die.

Help me. Together, lets finally make that final push towards stability. It will only be temporary; we've all gone through the many ups and down, and we all know what to expect. The higher we reach for the stars, the father we have to fall. However, its our responsibility to continue and preserve WG for the next generation of guardians. This community is too valuable to let die out.

Lets do this guys; our goal is in our reach, and if we work together, we will get there.

Absolutely right.
I more than ever want to bring some vitality back into this clan, but that can't happen for like another 10 days. I have every intention of doing this, but recruitment is harder than ever and motivation is slipping.

I know I've been sucking, just got so much shit going on, it's that time of year. Let's not forget that it's not just the leaders being inactive but also the members. I tried to host both of my events at their exact times but BOTH of them pulled under 5 people each, in a clan of 60.

That age thing is so true.

Back when was extremely active, back when I was the only leader of the fighting sector, I was much younger and had way more time on my hands for this game. I'm in my final year before technically becoming an adult and there are just so many things I would rather be doing than being on RS. The weekends where I would stay at home playing this game or doing things for WG are gone from me right now. I want to get out and do so much more because I never had that chance in my younger teen years because I spent them with this game.

My past 3 months have been nuts. Rehearsals, performances, deciding on which university I want to go to, deciding what I want to take, applying for those universities, choosing my courses, graduation plans, work, it's all been piling up on me like mad. I'm one of the most experienced people at a few units at work so they seem to always want to schedule me busy nights, which are basically every Friday and weekend. It's hard to schedule an event that would preferably be on the weekend, and that will give us a long enough prep, when my schedule goes up on Wednesday which is mid-week.

It seemed to me that even when I had free time that could potentially be used on RS or WG, I just didn't want to do even more work. My personal motivation is gone and thats not a good thing.


But I'm not going to use this post to give reasons why I'm not doing my job.
It hurts me to see WG in a tough time. This clan has and will always be a part of who I am. It was my first and hopefully last clan home. Bringing it back to power would be one of my greatest wishes at the moment. I know what it takes to restore this clan and I can speak from experience. Back when I was Snowzak's only raid leader and he gets his computer access taken away the entire fighting sector was put into my hands and my hands only. Yeah it sucked intially because pulling 8 people to raids and wars was depressing, but I made it through.

We have an amazing group of leaders in this clan at the moment and I think once we use our potential to it's full extent we can get this clan going again. I'm going to do all I can, in full force, this summer once I'm finished with Exams and graduation (both in two weeks from now).

Let's do it.

I was really tired and a little buzzed when typing this so I hope I wasn't all over the place

My girlfriend is gone the next 7 days and my mom told me I'm stuck at home babysitting my lilttle brother at least 2-3 days this week. I'll host some shit. Maybe 2 PVP events and a fun normal event. I can try a F2P CWA matched, a P2P allied raid, and something random like godwars or getting potential then 26k'ing.

It is my intention to host lots of Non-PVP events (and some pvp) when I finish exams (TOMORROW OMFG WOOOT WOOT WOOT )
I also want to get a lot more events going with TBE, TDM + ZT....
Although atm I am currently running CSotw and skill of the week + sig of the week is re-starting next week as well.
SO i'll do my best!@
