WELCOME

Rune Sophia was formed on January 17th, 2009 with the aim of creating a friendly environment for friends to hang out, provide friendly entertainment, and to help each other out while playing Rune. Rune is referring to Rune Scape, the game we play while Sophia means wisdom in Greek. We are a group of players who mainly enjoy doing skilling (both combat and non-combat). For the most part, we don't hold regular events. We do enjoy 'spur of the moment' events often. We don't do PK'ing but sometimes we do boss hunting. However, not as often because we aren't a pvm clan. Our focus is overall skilling rather than a specialty clan.

We took a break from Rune for a year due to some issues with the game itself. We are now back to reestablish our clan on Christmas of 2011.

REQUIREMENTS TO JOIN

Simple, be a mature person. Mature is defined as follow:

- Maturity encompasses being aware of the correct time and place to behave and knowing when to act appropriately, according to the situation and the culture of the society one lives in.

To clarify:
(to be edited as needed)

- Respect others
- Be considerate
- Know when to stop
- Be tolerant and keep a cool head
- Keep an open mind
- Don't act like a "noob" (e.g. constantly begging for stuff or help)
- Monitor your own behavior

Besides being a mature person, we suggest that you at least have some interests in common with us and understand what doesn't interest us. You can find out about it on the above post and the clan info.

We are a humorous bunch. We have lots of laughs joking at each other. Sometimes it may come across as mean and abusive, but it's all a joke without ill intent. So we ask that you would keep an open mind, learn and adapt, enjoy our jokes and share yours, if you want to become one of us.

We don't require you to be a certain level to join us. However, we do have a citadel that requires a weekly upkeep. We would like you to help out with it weekly. It shouldn't take more than two hours (unless you afk a lot). It isn't mandatory to help with citadel but we hope you would for the clan. However, in the event that citadel's upkeep hasn't met as the weekly reset drawing near, you'll be mandate to help out. You'll be gaining exp for your service (accordingly to your skill level) along with a clan ring that give you exp boost.

We also ask that you check our clan forum often (at least once a week) because if there are important announcements, they'll be posted.

CLAN RULES

To be edited as needed

• Clan reputation:
While you are in this clan please remember to act respectfully toward other clans and players, your behavior reflects on the entire clan.

• Respect others:
This is important. If you can't do this, we don't want you in our clan.

• Promotion and demotion:
Do not ask for rank. Asking for one will only prolong your promotion if any at all. Do not discuss about another member's rank. We promote or demote for a reason. If you feel that we neglect your contributions for the clan, bring it to the attention of one of the high ranking members.

• No Multi-clanning:
Also known as "clan hopping". If you leave our clan to bear other clan's vexillum or cloak, do not ask to be re-invited. You may use any other friend chats if you wish.

• Rules of RuneScape:
We do give some leeway to suggestive talk, just still be careful when you're doing this so you don't get carried away.

• Do not use bots or discussing how to use and/or get one:
- This should be covered by Rules of Rune Scape, but it is important to list it here so that it is absolutely clear. To clarify, bots are macro programs that help you cheat to gain advantage in your game play, such that you would gain exp and items without actually being at your computer.

- Note: this is not the same as multitasking, where you surf web, read forum, watching youtube, etc... while training skills.

CLAN RULES CONTINUED

• No scamming of any kind:
Again, this should be covered by Rules of Rune Scape, but it is important to list it here so that it is absolutely clear.

• No flaming:
While it's okay to talk about religions, politics, history, and etc., keep it friendly and no "flaming". If you feel uncomfortable with the topic, simply do not partake in it. You could also leave the clan chat (the chat, not the clan) for the time being.

• Clan citadel weekly visit:
You are REQUIRED to visit our clan citadel weekly after each reset. It only takes a minute to teleport and step inside. If for some reason you are unable to log on for a whole week, please let one of the high rank members know.

NOTE:
- If you don't visit, you will get one (1) strike per week you miss without letting a high rank member know ahead of time. At three (3) strikes will result in dismissal from clan.
- However, visiting three (3) months without missing any weeks in between (unless with notice) will remove one (1) strike until you have none.

• Absences:
- You are required to inform us and let us know before hand if you are unable to log on for a long period of time (you don't need to tell us if you are not logging on for a few days).
- You may post on the Absences thread to inform us.
- If you are absent for a month without noticing us, you'll be demoted.
- You will be losing 1 rank per month if demotion takes place, till you are corporal again.
- If you are absent for at least 6 months, you may be removed from clan completely if necessary.

CLAN CHAT RULES / GUIDELINES

To be edited as needed

• Be considerate and don't get carried away with joking/teasing:
Just because you can joke with one person in a teasing manner doesn't mean another person might not get hurt by the same teasing.

• Be tolerant:
Be tolerant and don't over-react to jokes in cc. If you feel someone has or is crossing the line, please pm a high ranking member or let the person know in a polite way that you would appreciate if they would refrain from joking in that manner when you are around.

• Listen to higher rank:
When a situation arises and a higher rank tells you to stop, do so. If you think that they are wrong and abusing power, bring the matter to the clan owner or deputy owner later. Do not argue back as two wrongs don't make a right.

• Do not disrupt the cc:
No spamming. Try to refrain from typing many lines of text while someone is giving someone else help.

RUNE SOPHIA RANKS

To be edited as needed

Our ranking is mainly based on the consistency of your capping in citadel. However, other factors are also taking into consideration when we give rank.

RECRUIT
• Automatically given upon being accepted into clan.
• Please note that all recruits will have a 1 week probation (7 days from when they joined clan chat), preventing them from contributing to the citadel. This is default by the clan system, we can't change it.
• To check if you're still on probation:
- Click clan chat - Clan settings - click the button with an arrow pointing right by your name.
- Check for the yellow
!
in the triangle.
- If it is not there, then you are off probation and are able to contribute to clan citadel.

CORPORAL
• Another auto rank that is given upon your probation status is lifted.
• This rank lets you know you are able to visit and collect in citadel.
• ~~You are required to perform your weekly visit as mandated by the rule.~~
• This rank is where you'll stay if you only ~~visiting citadel~~ , without resource contributions.

SERGEANT
• Sergeant rank is given after 4 or more complete caps in citadel. Cap means collecting in citadel till your you max your resource allowance per week.
• This rank also gains the ability to invite, adding new recruits that have been approved by admins. You'll sometimes be asked to help if you're available or easier access while admins aren't.
• Do not invite anyone that hadn't posted their application on our recruit thread and hadn't been approved by an admin.
• The time for promotion might be varied, depends on how consistent you are with capping and if you are helpful to clan in other ways.

LIEUTENANT
• It takes 12 or more complete caps in citadel (3 months) since your last promotion to be given this rank.
• In addition to what sergeant can do, lieutenant can:
- Check the resources contributions of other members.
- Kick guests who are disruptive from clan chat.
- Able to operate party room.
• Lieutenant is also granted the trust to be given temporary admins status.
• Again, it may take more or less than the set numbers of complete caps, depends on your performances.

CAPTAIN
• Captain rank is twice the time of lieutenant to achieve, which is 24 complete caps (6 months).
• In addition to what lieutenant have, captain may edit battlefield in citadel.
• Other than that, captain rank shows how prestigious you are in clan.
• The time is again varied and dependent on your performances.

GENERAL
• This rank doesn't give any new ability.
• General rank is basically same as captain, except it's being more prestigious due to the time it takes for promotion.
• It takes twice as long as captain for this rank, which is 48 complete caps (1 year).
• Prestige gives seniority over lower rank.
