So many pages of emotional back-and-forth over 5 defense levels. Is that really the biggest issue of the JCup?

Here are some others:

-
There should be more F2P categories
than just 30v30 and All-Out. 20v20 and 50v50 have been staples of clanning communities' tournaments for years now.

-
Matches should be best-of-3 or 5 instead of one-off
. Ideally, we'd also do run-ins instead of no-returning fights, but perhaps this is harder to police. The current conditions make DDoSing highly beneficial for the offenders, and we should take steps to minimize its effects. Also, having an annual competition's wins and knock-outs hinge on singular battles is rather... short-lived. Simple statistics tells us more battles will decrease the effect of RNG and other luck-factors, and increase the importance of skill and organisation, which is what we're after here.

-
Mass-name-changes (to similar names) should be disallowed
. The vast majority of clanners think they're a form of griefing as they make wars less enjoyable, when some clan starts it and everyone has to follow suit or be left at a disadvantage.

i don't really care about your opinion of what a pure is or what anyone else's opinion of a pure is. what i do care about is that this clan cup is accurate in showing who is the best clan. the 25 def cap is going to cut out a LOT of competition for the pure clan cup, meaning the amount of people able to participate in it will be SIGNIFICANTLY less than it would be if the def cap would be raised to 30, which in turn greatly cuts down on the activity of this event.

now let me tell you why some of these pure clanners have an issue with the def cap being raised. this is basically what has happened now and has been happening all throughout pure clanning. clan A (who is doing better than most clans) starts to get 30 def, clan B (who is in a slump) sees them getting def, but refuses to get def themselves. why? contrary to popular belief, its not because of their pride of their lower defence levels or their opinion of what a pure should be. its because it gives clan B an excuse to deny clan A action and events (that they would've lost anyway, had clan A not gotten defence in the first place). the ONLY plausible solution to this would be either for clan B to stop using this as an excuse (because its pretty ******* low, if you ask me) and/or for them to stop their whining and get higher def. we can't reset defence, and realistically no clan leader can expect all of their members to simply ditch their current account and start a the painfully long grind that is making a brand new maxed 25 defence pure. that's like having a med-level war with a 70 def cap, with nearly 3/4's of the med-level community having 75 def; it just doesn't make sense.

also, the post listing tons of clans and only 3 others that apparently allow 39- defence is silly. most of them are closed (and have been for a long time) and/or were opened on a private server. they were only listed to try and misguide you to keep the def cap where it is (lol).

current HPC's are foe, eop, cp, tlp, sup, rd and fi

20-29 defense Isn't even "pure", and turmoil was a lame excuse as well. You can't even call those "mistakes", or valid reasons.

It's a shame most of the current leaders of the top clans in the current pure community were bred in clan wars and never experienced the community and atmosphere from 2004-2007. Where clans relied on PKing regularly, fighting on even terms and showing respect for skill.

Those who actually can and do wear adamant in F2*, as well as have 90+ combat are just basically mains with an identity problem within the "pure" community. They aren't even top "pure" clans, they're mains who do not want to step up and fight actual main clans - who are, mind you, only 10 combat levels away from some of these "pures".

Your accounts are pure trash, can't even solo on them, and a main account with better Pking stats can attack you no problem from wilderness 1 and up. You're lying to yourselves so you can stay relevant in a community you don't belong in.

this is a war for pure *multi* clans. most people with 10+ defence in pure clans only pk in multi wars, not edgeville. also, whatever you think a pure is is nothing but your opinion. the definition of a combat pure is an account with stats that are purposely limited for a certain purpose. that purpose is completely up to the person training the account. quite literally meaning if i limited my maxed main to 98 defence instead of 99 defence and wanted to call it a pure, its a ***** pure.

given that 40 defence is the def requirement for rune armor, which is the best non-degradable armor in f2p, anything under it (39-) is by the very definition, a pure. anything above it should be considered a main (at least in f2p) because there are no other non-degradable armor sets with a def requirement above 40 defence.

this whole issue boils down to opinion. the def cap should not be limited to those with a different one.
