Trust me, we have plenty of systems in place for running the clan.

It's simply a lack of clanmates that's the problem.

And "mass recruitment drives" are simply not how we work. Most of the people in my clan don't want to put in that much effort, plain and simple. I generally like to get to know someone before recruiting them. Talk with them, befriend them, and then afterwards ask if they're interested in joining.

Will we have to put in more work to survive? Most definitely. But my point stands - this single update has fundamentally changed how clans must operate.

What the world needs is more geniuses with humility; there are so few of us left.

We had the meeting we wanted to have at the end of last week and I have pages and pages of notes to write up in response to the various ideas that have been floated. I'll be working on those for the next couple of days.

I am looking forward to the replies. In any case our clan used to recruit a lot of people before the update, but our steady flow of recruits has dried up completely. W91 is a hard world to recruit in since almost everyone already has a clan, and people that guest in our cc and start to be on W91 to be part of the clan get 'sniped' by other clans just when their 7 day cooldown is over, by money or with other offers. Very frustrating.

Mod Matthe i am wondering if you have a way of monitoring how many clan leavers have occurred since this update.

And if you would/could share these statistics.

Personally i love the new system in my opinion its the best thing for clans.And my moneys on majority of clans having far less leavers since it was put into place.

We do track such data but it is largely very business sensitive - I will discuss it with the team. I will say though that we are happy with what we are seeing numbers wise.

Cool i understand, just thought it would be good for the people doubting the new system to see the statistics.

Glad to see its a success we really needed something put in to slow down the clan hoppers rate.

I know resource and time wise things are tight to do but the impact of them are massive on the game i believe.

Like now instead of hopping a person would sit tight and eventually lose shyness for example start making friends become settled and end up buying a years membership rather than hopping and not playing as much.
Now that update has given us a great member and Jagex a years subscription.

Just an example i know its not the case in every scenario. Hopefully any new changes being reviewed at the moment don't change it too much.

This will be made of a number of posts as I work through all the suggestions. In order to fairly discuss this Mod Maz, Mod Moltare and myself locked ourselves in a room with a computer, a whiteboard and a big old pad of paper and worked through every suggestion we can find in the thread. Some of them were clearly the same thing or very similar ideas repeated so we have broken them down into ideas rather than attempt to answer every single post on the thread. There may be some we have missed but if so flag them for us once I have done all the posts and we'll see where we are.
