Our Warring..
By Gusmighster on 12/07/2008
Introduction
As you can see, from our recent performances against the top 3 clans in our league we are not anywhere near up to scratch for promotion. There is many, many places where we are going to have to improve in the break between seasons if we want to plant ourselves in a solid place
1 or 2.
Activity
Firstly, and definately most importantly, is activity. If we pulled what we have the potential to pull we could have easily beaten Lpt and Mod. We need an extremely strict check in activity, as blatantly, 40/140 is ridiculous. We need a topic like DZ posted a while back giving everybody 3 days to post. When the 3 days is over we need someone who can immediately sort out the topic, and PM (through the forums) every single person who didn't post. If they reply within 2 days, they get Guardian status granted, over 2 days means a kick unless they reply within 5 days and the person is deemed worthy of emeritus, where obviously, they would get emeritus.
After this sweep, it would be a neccesity(sp?) to become a lot tighter on activity rules. These rules, I believe, should be discussed between Council/Level 3.
In addition, my theory for us being deemed inactive by ourselves is the fact that we entangle Emeritus with the main memberlist. I believe if we want to be active within our Main Memberlist then Emeritus and people on the Main Ml have to be seperate. Having them entangled just continues to get us down and display our strength awfull inaccurately (i.e pulling 39 out of 140 to a full out). Basically, you're either emeritus or your not. People who will only attend 1 CWPL war, and get added to the ML and left there, are half the problem. OR, and a big or, we could have a rank of people who are dedicated for this kind of thing. A 'RuneHead Manager' rank who add and remove people EVERY week. If there's an emeritus who attends one week, the RH Manager would write this down somewhere and add them, but instantly remove them when the weeks war is over unless they are attending the next weeks war.
In conclusion of this section, I believe there are 2 main problems for our inactivity; 1. We haven't had an activity sweep in a long while, and 2. We need to find out how to get emeritus who want to war onto and off the memberlist efficiently, or eternally.
This is totally unfinished, I am going to do other sections of; Binding and War Practice, which I also think are key, aswell as getting information on how you think our anti-snipe should operate as our anti-sniping future looks extremely uncertain.

We probably won't be joining the league again. Most of WG just doesn't care about warring anymore.

Your 'Binding and War Practice' topic is probably unnecessary, as the Council/Level 3 have worked out plans regarding these weekly. As for your theories on activity, I agree entirely. I'd also believe it to be a good idea to re-seperate the memberlists into WG Emeritus and WG Active again. The only reason that they were merged slightly was due to the CWPL, and it now seems unlikely we'll be taking part in that anymore.
I look forward to reading your theorys on how Anti snipe should work

I'm going to make a topic regarding the CWPL either later tonight or tomorrow, to see if the majority of the clan still wants in.
My exact fear of what I was hoping wouldn't happen if we joined the league came true - starting off with a boom and great turnouts then people losing interest after a while. Looks like I was right.

I've only made a topic about it three weeks ago

I've never really been big on warring... You guys know that. The fact that I've actually gone to a few of them is pretty amazing to myself!

You've made alot of great points and I agree with many of them. In the next couple of weeks, theres going to be alot of new changes that will hopefully improve our warring skill.

Man I don't know anymore..
A large chunk of my heart is saying for the good of WG I try and get us to pull out, for the sake of our activity, war turnouts and to be honest, CWPL could be half the reason we have big names leaving and our community is entering a badddd downwards spiral..

I want to get back to where we put emeritus on their own list and if they show up to a war we add them then. Not if they are planning on it...IF THEY ARE THERE. We then remove them afterwards again, and all is well.
