I'm sorry but I don't support this in any way.

People don't just leave clans because of bad experiences they also leave because the clan may not offer something.

When raids came out I lost members to PvM clans but then at the same time I had people from PvM clans join my clan because they didn't like the atmosphere or there wasen't enough of a community feel.

I have to agree with Subzero, looking at numerical data like this is completly pointless and in its general purpose is very subjective. The number I would give to describe a situation you may give that same situation a higher or lower number.

From your posts you haven't made it clear enough to convince me that the screening to ensure accuracy is good enough because ultimately I could pay my clan members or friends or random people on RS to post about my clan being so amazing. How could you prove otherwise?

Additionally I think the analogy 'airing my dirty laundry' is best used here, I'm sure clan leaders here would agree with me they wouldn't want their clan affairs being shown in public. - An example a joke in my clan my members call me Ray the dictator if a random person saw that and posted that on your side without having had any context or knowing anything how does that work?

More over I wouldn't want people to judge my clan based on what is on your site, I'd rather they guest in my clan and interact with my members to see if they fit in and how my clan truly is.

Finally my clan members are very open and if I wanted feedback from them i'd make my own survey or pm them or use other methods to get feedback.

The ideal way for any player to find a clan that's right for them is to check them out for themselves. They can guest in chat (or pm a rank) and ask questions for answers about things that they find important.

Also, rating a clan is subjective. What one person finds appealing, another won't like at all. And what makes a good clan is not limited to citadel size, ranking system or how many people are in the chat at any given time. Of course, these can all be a factor but are weighted differently from one individual to another.

Trying to promote Clan Score and not being able to answer questions ('not my department') doesn't build much credibility for your venture either.

For these reasons, I'll pass.

no support for this, its naming and shaming game. ppl join clans for reasons and some leave clan for reasons, it should never be posted out of 1 to 10.


no support and 100% agree with subzero post on page 1.


ps, this whole thread should be locked, and reviewed by jagex mods.

No support.

While I do see that there was a good intention in creating this, it leaves too much room for distortion of results. Statistics are the most accurate when you have a large sample size contributing to them. I just don't see a great potential for exposure here to get accurate results.

And to quote a previous professor of mine, "when you hold a survey, you're only getting results from people who like to take surveys." This typically only includes people who have either a fully positive perspective or fully negative perspective of something. Take product ratings, for example, (typically) most ratings for a product are either 5 stars or 1 star, with varied results in the middle.

I just don't see how this would be beneficial to clans as a whole because you would need the results to be easily accessible to people who are looking for this information. And in my honest opinion, I would much rather have people who are looking for information about my clan to read through our forums, which I spent a lot of time working on, or contact myself or one of our ranked members.

I personally would not trust a third party's rating of a clan that they have no involvement with. ~ Sicariu

This guy is also the one questioning me about the name impersonators, and pm'ing me warning me of "higher forces" coming after me and my clan.

This is a game, and I dont know your intentions behind this "organization" but it seems to me like it is trying to be a behind the scenes, clan controlling entity.
