Are there any thoughts on introducing a PvM section to the Clan Cup?


30-Jan-2014 17:02:43

So that just sparked a discussion here - the thoughts are as follows; while we would really like there to be PvM inclusion in the Clan Cup the ways to monitor it cause difficulty. Boss Kills are the most obvious one to track but what counts as a group clan kill, how does that get recorded, etc? Yuck. So what about solo kills? Well how does that support Clan play?

In short - probably not. But we will think about it.

Is it possible for clannies to get promoted automatically after having been in the clan a certain amount of weeks?

30-Jan-2014 17:05:37

Technically doable.

Where this becomes a bit of a nightmare is where every clan then needs to be able to set what your x is, and up to what rank this can occur, and how to make sure it doesn't happen to people who the clan thinks have reached the correct rank already, and how to display all these options in a sensible way, and...

...and frankly, it's far better to just leave you guys better able to control ranks within your clan yourselves. I'm aware the current interface is less streamlined than it could be, and we'll be discussing potential improvements to the clan roster and functions like this with the CLF on Monday.

Will the clan citadel ever be accessible to free players?


31-Jan-2014 08:11:11

Unfortunately not.

We actually discussed this in great detail and depth when developing the project. Unfortunately there were too many problems which would require more dev work than the entirety of the rest of the project.

To give you one of the smaller problems: if the citadel is a free world, then members objects can not be used, and if it's a members world, free players can't go there...

This doesn't even start to address the issue of trading, and other systems that may only be available to members, but which would either have to be accessible to free players if we made the citadel free or not accessible to members.

Is it possible to add a weekly/monthly/yearly clan skilling competition feature to the RS website?


04-Feb-2014 08:41:49

Original message details are unavailable.
This is entirely possible (It was one of the initial design pieces of functionality we were intending to release with the seasonal hiscore system at runescape 3 launch).

However, if such a system was to be created, it would be developed for all first. We would then add any specialisations required for clans (e.g. pages, sorting etc...). -

Add a polling feature to the clan page for clan votes:

06-Feb-2014 13:31:06

Original message details are unavailable.
I think there are a few higher priority things in general (current projects web side) as well as clan specifics which would need doing before we'd even get a chance to consider this.

Never say never though, and if it's something which you feel is important, then I urge you to get as much support for it as possible!

I also don't think it's much work, maybe you can copy and paste some currently existing poll code?

Ferenc2017 :)


I will point Mod Maz and the other developers at this. I am sure that line will amuse them greatly.

(Hint: there is almost no situation which can be resolved by simply copy and pasting existing code) :)

PS I will point Mod Boko at this as it probably is more his team's thing than anyone else's.

I've wondered about this... is it uncommon at Jagex to make code modular so it can be easily reused, or do your engines just hardly allow for it? It seems like if you could have the opportunity to work on your code a bit longer to make it modular, this would save you time and resources in the long run.

I don't know, I've just wondered about this.

The back end web sys code is actually very modular, well structured and designed in such a way to minimise work should the need for additional 'segments' of functionality need extending (e.g. polls is its own module).

Unfortunately it's not as straight forward as copy and pasting duplicate code from one area to another in any case.

As you can imagine the poll functionality to more than just a couple of lines of code :( .
