Welcome to Born to Rune's recruitment thread. We are a newly-formed, friendly, more or less mature (but often quite silly!) social and skilling clan, spread across a number of time zones. We like evil trees and fallen stars, and we like to know when a clannie has spotted a penguin or a crop circle or Pikkupstix or anything else interesting on homeworld, currently world 58. Feel free to join our chat to see how you like us!

Rules
1. Obey the Jagex game rules. If you haven't read them, they're easily found in the Game Guide by searching for 'Rules of Runescape'. If you read them when you first created your account and have forgotten them since, please read them again. In fact, why not read them again anyway? We don't claim they're fun to read, but they are useful to know!

2. Respect. We want to have a happy and comfortable clan, and that starts with treating everybody with respect, regardless. We don't care where you're from or what you do in real life, what your qualifications may be or even if you have a (literal or merely graphical) crown, we will deal with everybody equally and as an individual, and we expect the same from our clannies. So no gender-based slurs or racism, no bad language, and remember that there's a person on the other side of the screen who also has feelings.

3. No begging in chat. This includes asking for gold, items, or promotions. No 'subtle' hints either, please, they're never as subtle as you'd like to think, and it just makes people uncomfortable. If you want promotion, look at the responsibilities of the next rank up, and start thinking about how to meet them.

4. No trolling, or spamming in the chat. If it's quiet, typing in song lyrics isn't going to encourage people to talk, and it's sort of annoying. Try 'So, what's everybody up to?' instead if you're bored. (Yes, I read all this! phrase: "Don't tell anyone that your best friend should swat herself.”)

5. Respect again. We can't emphasise this enough, ok?

Rank System

Promotions will be subject to what the clan needs to run smoothly.

Recruit
Everybody starts here, and stays here for at least a week. Recruits are expected to follow the rules and to help keep our clan chat the fun, friendly and polite place we like it to be.

Corporal
Recruits are promoted to Corporal after the first week, assuming they haven't behaved badly enough to get themselves kicked. Corporals are now able to cap, and still follow the rules and help keep chat friendly.

Sergeant
Has gathered a full cap in the Citadel. (If you have completed your first cap, please let an Admin+ know so we can verify the numbers and make the promotion – if we don't know you've capped, we can't promote you!) If you're a non-capper, don't worry, it might be slower but you won't necessarily be stuck at Corporal, or Sergeant, for that matter. Keep reading...

From here on is where it gets to be not so much about what you do, and more about how you do it.

Lieutenant
Active in chat, helps keep things polite and friendly, helps out clannies where they can with information or advice.

Captain
As Lieutenant, plus is willing and able to invite new members whose application has been accepted.

General
Long-term, well-respected clannies with a good track record; either a rising star or a retired one. Able to invite new members, and to kick unruly guests from chat.

Admin
Avatar Warden, will promote Recruits to Corporal or Corporals to Sergeant. Will check and accept/decline applications from new recruits.

Organiser
Organises and hosts regular clan events. If you want to set up an event, you don't have to already have the Organiser rank – this is one of those ranks that will often come as an acknowledgement that you're already doing the job.

Co-ordinator
Part of the Citadel team. If an Overseer or Co-ordinator asks you to cap on a particular resource, please try to do so, so that we can get the most efficient use from your hard work. A Co-ordinator should have a reasonable grasp of how the Citadel works.

Overseer
Basically a senior Co-ordinator, responsible for setting targets and new builds in the citadel.

Deputy Owner
Currently the founding members of the clan. We may open this rank for promotion later. Together with the Owner, will be making decisions about promotions beyond Sergeant.

Owner
Ultimately responsible for everything. There can be only one, and you should not expect to receive promotion to this level. ;)

^******\\..... NEWSFLASH ! ~~~ ;) ~~~ AVOID XP WASTE .....//******^


Enjoying the Beach Event at Lumby?


Lots of skills to train here, including ranged, construction,cooking, farming, fishing and even a bit of a scrap. There's summer-themed rewards, and even portals to some of the popular minigames


Tuska's now fallen into the ocean, off the coast of the Bedabin/ bandit camps in the Kharidian Desert. Swim over to continue hitting those islands for the xps.

Monthly tasks updated on 1 July, so remember to do your god statues, and troll invasion.


Clan/ citadel changes in recent update, 12/01

Players joining a clan no longer have to wait to access clan features.
On leaving a clan a player must wait for 7 days until joining a new clan.
To help smaller clans maintain upgraded citadels, upkeep costs of clan citadels have been reduced.
Upgrade costs have increased.

We've now built our
T5 citadel
Capping gives plenty of xp, and helps out the clan. We've got all the T5 type skillplots now: woodcutting, firemaking, mining, smithing
summoning and craft!
Help us work towards getting the new T6 (sitting in the build queue). Need help reading what resources are required? what we're currently building? Contact Me, or other ranks, and we can show you ;

We're building T6 citadel atm... could do with a few more clannies for the visitor numbers!


Clan
Avatar
is now available. With the skilling buff active (go pay those orts to either the avatar or the quartermaster, at the keep) you'll get 3% xp when on the same world as the avatar, or 6% if the avatar is within 10 spaces of you.

No avatar? Talk to the admin+ ranks in the clan, and ask about getting it out.
No
rank online when you skill? Contact me in clan forums, or via pms . Lets see if we can change that
