~Questionnaire~
Do you see yourself as the most important person of the clan? I do not. I believe that I am equal to everyone else. The gold key doesn't mean a thing, we are a family!
Have you ever kicked a person from your clan that you considered as a personal friend? I have done so before. It is tough to do this, but it's only fair to everyone else. I try my best to avoid any special treatment.
Do you like to give speeches to your clan? Hmm, well I do nag them about collecting their resources often. The citadel demands effort!
Do you lead your clan in wars? We have really only tried a Clan Wars event once. If we do it in the future, I won't take much part because I prefer skilling over combat. :)
Do you spend a lot of your time while playing RuneScape in your clan chat? I am almost always found in the clan chat; I try to keep up with conversations.
Are you able to control your anger when a member does something very wrong? I suppose I have exaggerated my anger or disappointment before. I attempt to solve problems rather than add to them, though.
Do you rank up people fast? Sometimes I feel that this person was ranked up too quickly, or this person deserved to be ranked up last week, but I just didn't get the chance to review it. In most cases, I base ranks on how helpful of a member they are, rather than a set-in-stone template going by weeks or months.
Do you speak with your clan members on MSM, Skype or other? No, everything is kept in-game or in the Clan Forum.
Have you ever taken leadership from another leader because he was lazy? I have demoted a highly ranked, respected member before, but it was what the rest of us felt was best.
Do you discuss clan problems with the whole clan and not only with the high ranked members? Problems such as Citadel maintenance, yes, I explain them to the whole clan. Problems involving a particular member(s) are only discussed with admins.

Did you ever had a dream about your clan? Hehehe, I have dreamt about my clan's potential before. :) :)
Do you motivate people to attend events in your clan? I try to motivate my clanmates, but it's become a bit stressful lately, due to events failing with minimal amounts of people in attendance. This is an area that I would like my clan to improve in. I would LOVE any tips from any of you, on event scheduling and motivating!
Do you think your clan is the best clan in RuneScape? I would not say this at all. We are not the best, and we don't wish to be the best! We want to be US. I think we have achieved that goal. :)
Does your clan stops you from playing other games? Me? No . . . RuneScape is the only game that I play (a bit addicting)! I believe a few members play some other games too, which is just fine by me.
Would you ever join a clan again as a recruit? Well, if my clan ever does face its demise, I think I would like to take a break from being a clan member and experience RuneScape flying solo. After some time I think I would join a clan as a recruit, just to see what it was like for the recruits that first joined my clan!
Do you doubt on your abilities as clan leader from time to time? Very recently, I have. If you can relate, feel free to PM me about why I have doubted myself (I absolutely love to talk to anyone).
Do you attend all the events your clan has in a week? Most of the events that we have held so far have been organized and run by myself - Yes.

Do you look down on other clan leaders? In reality, I look UP to many clan leaders. I was originally a member of a clan, not a high-ranked admin, or a leader. This clan that I lead now was formed about six months ago. It is my first time taking on the clan leader responsibility.
Do you ever read the applications new members post before accepting them? We haven't done much recruiting through forum applications, maybe only a few members. Yes, I would have read their applications to revise.
Are you happy with your clan as it is now? Mostly, yes! I am extremely excited to build new connections with every upcoming member (it will be a lot of hard work, but fun work).

Hi guys, I'm another new add. I guess i'll start by filling out this questionnaire :P
Clan Leader Questions
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Bit of, not a tradition, fun for clan leaders to get to know a bit about you, your clan and what type of clan leader you are!
(Copy and paste this post on the thread while answering these questions.)
Put YES, NO or SOMETIMES as your answer to each!
Do you see yourself as the most important person of the clan?
Not with how active I am now, haha

Have you ever kicked a person from your clan that you considered as a personal friend?
Unfortunately yes, and recently...no fun :/

Do you like to give speeches to your clan?
Not particularly, it only seems to happen when something's gone wrong

Do you lead your clan in wars?
Sounds violent! I'm not the type, really :P
Do you spend a lot of your time while playing RuneScape in your clan chat?
Yes

Are you able to control your anger when a member does something very wrong?
I won't go off at them verbally, but there will be appropriate consequences.

Do you rank up people fast?
All ranks are by vote, once/month

Do you speak with your clan members on MSM, Skype or other?
Nope

Have you ever taken leadership from another leader because he was lazy?
With fall semester nearing, i'm more likely to be giving away than taking leadership :(
Do you discuss clan problems with the whole clan and not only with the high ranked members?
Hmmm...if they center around a certain member, probably not. Otherwise, yes.

Did you ever had a dream about your clan?
Nope

cont'd...

Do you motivate people to attend events in your clan?
With limited success :P
Do you think your clan is the best clan in RuneScape?
It is the best at what it does :)
Does your clan stops you from playing other games?
No, Runescape is the only (electronic) game I ever played seriously

Would you ever join a clan again as a recruit?
I would probably have quit by now if not for my clan

Do you doubt on your abilities as clan leader from time to time?
Yes, I usually end up using a vote on any confounding decision I can't rely on myself to make.

Do you attend all the events your clan has in a week?
Yes

Do you look down on other clan leaders?
Not at all!

Do you ever read the applications new members post before accepting them?
Adds are made based on activity in the chat and recommendation, not by application

Are you happy with your clan as it is now?
A loaded question...In some ways, no, in other ways, very much.

I should probably give some background that would put my answers into better perspective. Some time last spring, I got annoyed by the fact that people on the forums and in W2 were frequently able to rip people off by trading items that have a real value far from guide price, in particular the rares Easter Egg, Pumpkin, and Disk. I made a friends chat to track the real prices of these rares, and make them public so that it would be harder to scam. The chat quickly grew to include all rare items, and became wildly popular.
Because It was so busy, I founded a clan as a place for people in the friends chat to hang out and chat without getting in the way of all the friends chat business. It's mostly been just that ever since, although we've recently started doing citadel as well.
In some of the questions I was answering with regard to the friends chat, and with some I answered with regard to the clan chat.
Sorry for the long explanation...I'm happy to finally join this community (even if my clan-based idol Moe is leaving :( )
