Activity Issues.

And this is where the problem arises.

WG's current balance is a group of staff who under allot of pressure both In Real Life (IRL) and as a Staff Member for WG, which is resulting in a group of people who do not have time to play the game that the majority of the rest of the clan revolves around. This results in a perception of a leadership team that is lagging behind in one of the most important factors in any RS clan, Activity.

Why is RS activity so important?

RS activity is the cornerstone of the community in WG, there is nothing in my eyes that is more important than see'ing clan members & staff playing RS as much as possible. If you're on RS, you're on IRC which inevitably means you're helping to build WG's community, which sadly seems to be suffering at the moment.

Staff being around is very important for our community.

So what do I think should change?

WG Desperately needs a re-balance of the way everything is working, if staff (specifically council) can't find time to play runescape something is going wrong. I can understand that staff work needs to take priority at times, however WG members do not see most of that and as a result we only see the bad that I have listed above, the lack of visible activity on RS & IRC.

Spending time on RS and on IRC should be treated as one of the tasks that staff should be doing every time they can. Just like a company, interactions between the higher & lower echelons are hugely important for everything to function properly.

If thats not practical currently, do we need more staff? is there too much to be done with the current 'crew'? are the systems that WG currently uses not doing their job if its slower/more complex than it would be without them?

Whatever the issue is, it is really important that WG members get more 'face time' with council, because at the moment I think people are really wanting that.

Terrible, step down. Now.

Although my activity has improved lately as I've gotten back into slayer

Lol???

Ok, first of all, a clan's activity is not measured on how much the members afk at a bandits spot. Whatever the players do outside of the clan isn't our business and personally I could care less what skill you're training. The activity of a clan as a whole comes from the members (staff included) showing up to events. I went through a whole council term barely playing runescape solo, but I still showed up to every event I could, and did my share of work. Like I said, people are only here to be in the community and play with others, that's the only responsibility they have. Every time I log onto runescape, I literally have less than 3 WG members online at a time.

People enjoy different things in this game, and playing solo is not one of mine. I'm sure many people in WG share the same beliefs as I do. Yes I'm a new raid leader, and I will make sure I create events and lead them, but you're disappointed that I'm not growing tomato plants right now???

I'm not going to go on and on, but I think you can all see my points to why the other post got made. I actually like all of you. Everyone in staff has their own very good qualities or you would not be there. Just take a step back and re-think what the members are seeing. I'm sorry my bringing problems to your attention is upsetting, but you ignore the hints the clan gives you all the time. Maybe in a joking way but still they tell you.

If I need to clarify anything, I will try to post responses.

Edit: the img link needed fixed.

It has been the same thing forever, all the council have these same rules.

Alright, wasn't sure why you put that in a post that was a rebuttal to Randy's (at least that's what I think you did) when hes a raid leader and not council. Unless it was a reference to his part about being council before.
