I understand OSRS and RS3 are completely separate games, run by completely separate games. However, it's going to leave a bad taste in people's mouths on RS3 if OSRS implements Clan support, while RS3 refuses to even do QOL updates.
Oh well. At least RS3 players even have a clan system. As you said, the dev teams are entirely separate and function independently.

Would it make those people feel better if it meant updates in other areas for Old School would be slowed down to spend time on a working clan system?

I don't really understand this trail of thought?

The OSRS clan system is (obviously!) going to be newer than our clan system is. They're not going to have the same "spaghetti code" issue. They're most likely going to have features in their clan system that far exceed the RS3 clan system. Not only will theirs exceed our system on launch, but they'll also be able to expand on it and make future OSRS clan updates.

As I said, it's going to leave a bad taste for a lot of people. RS3 has been asking for clan updates for years , then OSRS comes along with minimal to moderate demand for clan updates, and they go ahead and give it to them with far less people asking for it.

To be clear: I am not saying "OSRS shouldn't get clan support," I'm saying "RS3 should get clan support as well." @Lisaa_RS - Followed by @Runescape

I haven't read many posts could already be stated but I would recommend this sort of rank system:

The highest ranks,
mirrors
The lowest ranks,

Highest being active ranks,
Lowest being passive ranks,
As above, so below.

Can't be said too often- -

The only reason why there's not an outcry for clan support here for OSRS is that Old School never had that support in the first place, CLF is primarily for RS3 players and is not representative of the OSRS clan community. I've been active in the OS clan community since release day and know quite a few other clan leaders. The forums aren't really a thing people use, let alone CLF.

I don't see why it makes any difference to you whether a different game you don't play receives an update or not. It's certainly not a downside to an OSRS clan system update at any rate. I sympathise with your spaghetti code issue but we have our own problems with that elsewhere, thanks to a lot of the outdated game-code which comes with a 2007-based server.

I hope RS3 players get the clan updates they want, it wouldn't leave a bad taste in my mouth if they did while OSRS didn't and I don't even play RS3. RS3 has nil to do with me so if the tables were turned, I'd not be bitter about it.

If people are feeling jealous about a different game receiving updates from a different dev team then Jagex as a professional business probably (hopefully) have bigger concerns to deal with than that.

To try and stay on topic: In your situation OP, I wouldn't mind too much about many ranks being the same, you could just try and re-allocate roles and shift ranks around so that some of the less used ranks are used more often. Generally reserve General/gold star for leaders of the clan.

You're still totally missing my point :@

When OSRS gets Clan support, the people on the RS3 team should work on RS3 clan updates as well. That's all I'm saying. If they get updates, we want updates too. If they don't give the main game updates but give OSRS updates, people will be upset. @Lisaa_RS - Followed by @Runescape

I didn't miss your point, I just don't recognise your argument that a few people getting upset is a legitimate reason for an ultimatum regarding Old School getting a clan system update or not.

I never said anything about Old School not getting an update due to people on RS3 being "upset." What I am saying is that RS3 should get updates too, preferably around the same time OSRS gets theirs. @Lisaa_RS - Followed by @Runescape

And what if RS3 can't get that update at the same time? Spaghetti code is a problem for you guys. Then there's going to be people that are somewhat upset over this. You'd think that, even with the spaghetti code, RS3's vastly larger dev team could work out something at relatively the same speed as the small OSRS dev team.

Anger Alt said :
Should OSRS devs delay their updates to avoid RS3 players being upset? Absolutely not. Why should OSRS be punished for a community reaction on a totally different game? I never said they should delay it. All I'm saying is RS3 should get clan updates too. @Lisaa_RS - Followed by @Runescape

I really hope so, otherwise I wouldn't even bother using the OSRS clan system.
