It's allowed us to put forward suggestions which have largely been ignored as something you could do, but other than that this thread has not done what was originally promised - to help sort the mess that's called a probation system.


It has captured a large number of suggestions and feedback. Those will be borne in account when we look at the probation/cooldown system again.


And meanwhile clans like mine have pretty much died. Thanks for the support, Jagex.


When will that be? Will it ever be a priority? Will we ever be a priority?

Dont need to answer, I think we already know.

Yeah it's captured ideas which may be used if you come back to look at this. It seems it's unlikely that you will ever come back to view this. So no, it hasn't done it's job. MrBrokenBow - Former Leader and Founder of

I don't think you're alone. All but the most aggressively recruiting clans have had issues with maintaining activity with this update. Source: RuneClan. Hang in there :)

I was doing some research on RuneClan earlier today and see what you are talking about, Seer of War.

Thanks for the words of encouragement.

We have had several discussions in the last few week about the probation/cooldown - this does not mean we are planning development but the feedback on this thread is something we are aware of and considering deeply.

Hope this will be looked at. This system is a horrible mess for those players that return after months/years of taking a break from RuneScape and want to get back and fully enjoy the game. Then there's Jagex trolling them by saying "HAHAHAHA you shall wait a week because lol". You're a bunch of meanies :P Part of the

Not really trolling, no. I can only change things on the player when they're online. I can't tell when they've been kicked from a clan if they're offline, only that they're not in one. Mod Maz

While reading your reply I'm not sure if you understood me. I'm trying to point out that this system is unfriendly to players who took a long break for whatever reason they may have had.

I'm not sure with which personas in mind this system was developed but clearly many important ones were missing. The returning player who lost most of his in-game friends due to his inactivity and who's stuck in a dead clan being one of them.

The probation period is discouraging. If a clan no longer suits our needs nothing should be standing in our way to join a different clan. It's a game and clans can play an important role when it comes to enjoying it. Stop putting us through unneeded difficulties.
