Hi Zypher X ,

That is not an accurate representation, despite how you may feel about Jagex and RuneScape's development.

I don't think this was very fair, the amount of support we get presently surpasses what we got during certain periods in the past and lots of beneficial updates (suggested by players or not) have been implemented for clans.

So yeah, currently the updates mentioned on this thread may not currently be worked on, but it isn't to screw with us

Anyway, I haven't commented yet on this thread, as I had nothing to add (but have been reading the posts now and then

). But I probably should have said earlier, it all looks fantastic, keep up the good work

Obby.

I wasn't specifically honing in on the 'clan' area aspect of the game - but what players desires are in general. Surely, achievement diaries could take a backseat awhile, just long enough to get larger and more important projects like this one done - ones that are community focused - achievements are a personal vendetta/endeavor.

I'm in no way complaining - just pointing out the obvious - situations like this have happened time and again - and I'm just tired of seeing it. Don't 'white-knight' it either. This isn't the first time nor the last. I'm not saying anything about lack of support in any manner either. It's just when there's something already great on the table, it tends to get scrapped or put off for other garbage content. This is just one of those scenarios. There were MANY other features promised before and simply cut from even being mentioned. Go look those up if you want. I won't bother. They don't care about prioritization much. I'm not saying this won't get finished - I think there's already too much behind this to not get it done - EVENTUALLY (whatever that ever means when it's said all too often).

In the end, JAGeX does what they want. Which is fine in a way. But I'm a member of the community and I'm allowed to share my perspectives. I'm one member of the CLIENT/CUSTOMER base. There wasn't even a poll on this or anything. Just an 'executive decision'. It'll be how it will be, but in the realm of large draws to game content, to bring in new players, achievements are almost a non-issue. Nobody joins a game to specifically do the monotonous stuff like that - almost just easter-eggs with rewards. It's not a focal point of the mood/theme of the game nor a huge feature that can be player utilized. It's 'just there'. Clan:

Hi,

I know these permissions won't be done for some time - but our clan has an issue which would be nice if it was also addressed in the permissions upgrade.

Not sure if anyone else has mentioned this as I've not the time to read all previous posts - so forgive me if it's been mentioned before.

Our clan is small with 67 members of which only about 22 people per week help out at our t6 citadel. This means we need to be careful what resources the avatars collect too.

The problem being is we tell all admins and above to please not collect with the avatars and to leave it to the owner and the deputy owner to make the decision of what needs collecting to make up the difference for any shortfall for our weekly upkeep. But of course when we go to start collecting with the avatar someone has already collected resources and not necessarily the resources we need.

If there could be some way of a player permission not a total rank permission - that only certain people may use the avatar to collect weekly resources, this would be of great use for us small clans.

Thanks & Cheers

That's extremely micro-managed. I rather doubt it will be done - unless assignment of specific players is implemented for use of Avatars, and not ranks. There's currently no way they're doing that, as they've said before though. Clan:

Already on the list :-)

There will be a permission that you can grant that will allow those who have relevant access to avatars to be able to set them gathering resources. Mod Maz

Hello. So I'm not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but I was thinking when you guys come out with the clan permission update, you could also make a permission allowing us to set a limit on how high ranks can rank up other ranks. For example, I would like Organiser and Coordinator ranks in my clan to be able to rank up clannies until the rank of General, but not be able to give others Admin+ ranks. So do you guys think maybe making a permission to edit how high ranks can rank up others is a possibility? I would greatly appreciate it.

Hi Zypher X ,

At no point did any of the Clan mod team state that Mod Maz had been swapped onto achievements. We stated the work she was needed for was essential and urgent, otherwise we would not have put on hold a task we consider as important as the Clan Permissions rewrite.
