I love the idea of this. I do see a lot of people in the thread are worried about scamming, the solution I think to the problem would be for it to work like item lending used to. A player would deposit the item inside of the clan chest, which a clan member could take out for a period of 1, 3, 6, and 12 hours. After the item returns to the chest where it can be reclaimed again. The owner of the item will be allowed to reclaim it at anytime. Too keep players from dying by losing the item in combat there will be a 5 minute timer if the item is being reclaimed by the owner. So if I had two accounts, I could lend claws on one and go pking without the risk of losing claws? Sorry, I only played during true old school runescape so don't really know how lending worked ingame as it was a new school update. 200M all skills, Trimmed comp Cape, MQC

As Gozz said above, I feel this is only going to invalidate things like PvP.

I honestly feel any anti-scam measures with this are unnecessary as a whole. The idea of the Clan Chest is just as a more convenient method of trading with friends. If scams can already happen in trades, then scams can happen in the chest. It poses no more risk, and at this point I think players know better than to lend valuable items to people they don't know.

Not to mention the playerbase of this game is largely adults, so I think we can handle ourselves with attempted scams or internet "friends" who ran off with our items.

I do feel the same as you do about the scamming and things of that nature. With item lending in previous versions of RS you were unable to take items into pvp areas so it did not interfere with item risks. I really love your idea and want to see it put into the game, which is why i tried to come up with an idea on how to solve scamming potential because i see it as a counterpoint which could keep this idea from being implemented. I do not have a solution for allowing items into pvp with my idea to prevent scamming mentioned above, and I do know that pvp clans exist and do wish to share items with each other without having to log in trade the item and then have to get the item traded back. I also believe that this idea should not exclude pvp clans as the game was created for pvm, pvp, skilling and all aspects as to where one should not be punished because of other players. I really hope this idea finds it way into the game for all clans to be able to use.

How would this be implemented without any ways for guests to take everything out of the chest without warning?

CC ranks. Only ranked members are allowed access to the chest, meaning a guest can't access it.

I mean that can even be associated with specific chest bank tabs giving access to only certain ranks.

I appreciate the aspect of this bringing clannies closer

However in complete honesty i don't think this would provide a great advantage to the clan community, If anything this would be considered a QoL but this would no doubt have problems and cause problems

In a nut shell i think Development time would be better spent on improving other content within osrs

Word of advice with this tho you can still recommend the game to your friends quite easily, Discord is great for a out of game communication method and i'm sure you could arrange to play at similar times to trade an item you want to either give or lend

A Shared bank of any sort would be toxic, thinking long term

I wouldn't think it as any less of an offense as running away with a lent item.

I definitely agree with you to a large extent here. It's definitely more of a QoL at best, but a social one at that. Again, there are few things you can do with a friend who is a drastically lower level than you, which is why I think growing a bank tab with them would be much more enjoyable.

As for dev time, I was thinking this would be something rather simple to add, at least compared to my previous shared PoH suggestion. I personally know little about the engine behind OSRS, but would adding a new feature that merely stores items be that much to implement?

Yeah, I can see that, but again I'm talking about playing with friends and being smart with items. If you wouldn't lend something to someone, don't put it in the shared bank, right?

This is pretty interesting, it would definitely help with clan led drop parties or leading to some event. However I do see how it can be easily scammed from. Cool idea! Getting into the community, here to meet friends! Also getting back into RuneScape after some time away!
