^" a hierarchical structure to some degree." Why you need that?

You speak as most clans are warring clans, well nowadays most clans are not!

There are to many ppl just focusing on the combat skills , when actually the non cb skills will actually help you.

As for those saying that citadel gets to much attention, this is the first upgrade since it came out!

I wasn't aiming to speak as if most clans were warring clans, and I'm pretty sure I stated I was worried about a minority being affected here. Most clans AREN'T warring clans, but there still are a good few that are. Just because they're fewer in number doesn't mean they shouldn't be considered.

I wasn't meaning to slam the importance of skilling. Skilling is and can be useful, but it's a choice. As I stated in the earlier post, I'd be upset if my Fishing level determined my ability to war. That type of skilling (non combat skilling), typically does not determine your war ability. Through the use of Clan Avatars, this is requiring clans to do something they may not want to do (maintain a Citadel, which is predominantly skilling), just to compete with other clans in an area they already do. I don't find that right.

Citadels have had multiple upgrades since they've came out. New plots have been put out, the Tier 7 vex has come out, Citadel Theatre, etc. I'm not going to argue that it's the *most* updated feature in RuneScape, but it is one of the more heavily updated clan features of RuneScape. I mean, as a clan leader, I can tell you that myself and many other CL's are still awaiting new minigames to play, the clan chat to be fixed with the ranking, and whatnot.

As for your comment of being 100+ and having a Tier 1 Citadel, I wouldn't agree with you that it's "childish". Many clans have no purpose with the Citadel. Why would you if you were an active PvM clan, that only did PvM? Or a warring clan that only did warring? What use does leveling your Firemaking in the Citadel? Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

As I stated in the post on the previous page, this is NOT levels we're talking about. It's not like making some new weapon that has great bonuses and is requiring players to train a skill to get the effects of that bonus.

This is communities we're talking about. And this update, could potentially be asking clans to change the very way they run or the very way they're styled - just to compete with clans in areas they do that aren't even related to the Citadel.

Asking a PvP clan to take hours out of their day each week to do something other than PvP, should be THEIR CHOICE, and they shouldn't have to feel like less of a clan for a preference issue. And they certainly shouldn't be at a disadvantage for warring, either.

To answer your question on why a clan must have somewhat of a hierarchical structure, that's essentially what separates a clan from a group of friends. Someone needs to be leader (to an extent) and some have to follow. It's like a rectangle and a a square thing. Clans can be group of friends, but not every group of friends is a clan.

If everyone was the same rank, you'd essentially just be a group. Nothing could be enforced without someone to enforce it, nor someone to represent the clan's decisions.

It's a long political theory talk, but in essence, someone has to be in command.
