The Classic Clan Campaign was a movement conceived in late 2007 where WG made an effort to preserve historical aspects of the clan world which were being phased out, in particular the tradition of hosting non-returning wars as opposed to PK run-ins which could last for hours. While the clan world itself continued to evolve and PKRIs became the standard type of engagement, WG continues to avoid extended run-ins. The clan also enjoys occasionally reinacting historical traditions such as marching up from Edgeville into the Wilderness and organising fights where more recent in-game items are disallowed.
2007 Event
In an effort to raise awareness regarding the decline of the traditional non-returning war, WG organised a promotional event in late October 2007. The event was open to the public and announced on several fansites, with multiple clans such as The Gladiatorz also being given invitations via their forums.
The event took place on 10 November 2007 and hundreds of players were in attendance. It took place mainly in Falador and consisted of five activities:
- Games in the Burthope Games Room (unannounced to the public).
- A public speech about the campaign.
- A drop party at the Falador party room.
- A "firefest" where the clan lit hundreds of fires.
- A "flower power" event where the clan planted hundreds of flowers using Mithril seeds.
2010 Old-School Wars
In late 2010 WG hosted a series of "old-school" wars (in RuneScape 2; not to be confused with wars in Old-School RuneScape which at the time was unreleased). These battles involved gear restrictions on almost all items released after 2005. Popular items which were disallowed were Helms of Neitiznot, Team Capes and Rune Crossbows. However a unique aspect of the fights were that they all took place in unusual locations around RuneScape in PvP worlds, rather than the traditional location of deep Wilderness.
