CLAN UPDATE:

Hey all,

people that have been a part of the clan for some time now might have already seen this, but for those that have not, we ask to read the following and giving us your opinion.

These are not final yet and may change as we receive feedback.


We would like to address the inactivity of our clan. Mainly because when new people join, they somehow lose interest in progressing their account after a few weeks or even days.

To start things off, the ranking system will be changed. Currently players are promoted when they have been a certain time in the clan. With the new changes we'd like to rank our members on the clan XP gained.

Making this change will give them somewhat of a motivation to progress further. Also, a minimum Total XP requirement will be set. As of right now this number will be 2,5M total XP, the reason for this is to avoid recruiting newer players
that decide to quit their account and we are left with a clan full of inactive accounts. The reason we chose 2,5M (can still change) is because players will have progressed far enough that they won't decide to just quit and never come back.

Players that are already in the clan below 2,5M total XP will have until the end of 2017 to reach it, otherwise they will be removed.


In addition to the above, we will also hold monthly clan events as well as XP competitions, with a monthly HiScore showing who gained the most.

We believe these changes are a great start to encourage players in continuing playing.

If you have any suggestions to add or change, please leave your opinion. Together we can find a solution.

Thanks for reading.

Welcome to
F2P Ironman!


About the Clan.

We offer a home to
Hardcore Ironman
and
Regular Ironman
players that enjoy F2P as much as we do! Our goal is to try and bring the free-to-play Ironman community together in one place, here you can meet new people that are playing the same game mode as you and make some friends along the way!

The clan was originally created on October 13th, 2014. Though recruiting other people started on November 3rd, 2015. The reason for that is because back then, not many people were planning on staying F2P.

State of the F2PIM community.

About 3 months after the release of ironman mode the overall F2PIM community remained rather small. ~100 actively playing players. After a year went by the community started to grow slowly over time.

We're 2 years later now and the current known F2PIM player base is ~600 players, though not all are actively playing.

Clan Requirements.

As of now there are NO level requirements to join, however, this can change in the future;

The player must meet these conditions:


Pure F2P status

- This can be seen on the players RuneMetrics profile. If however activity from October 17th-31st 2016 is displayed, the player will be given a pass and may still join. (Due to the Ironman anniversary celebration, Jagex has given all ironman player an unavoidable 2 week membership) Players with activity besides 17 - 31 October 2016 will NOT be permitted to join, however they are allowed to stay as a guest.

Once joined the player must remain F2P

- We can't force someone to stay F2P, however if the player is seen in a P2P world, they are immediately removed from the clan. They can come back as a guest, BUT we ask to keep the discussed topics F2P-only!

How do ranks work


When the clan was first created the ranks were determined on the player's total level, however after reconsideration we plan to do it a little different. Instead of looking at players stats, we will rank them based on how long they have been in the clan.

The ranks:

Recruit: New members
Corporal: 1 week
Sergeant: 1 month
Lieutenant: 3 months
Captain: 6 months
General: One year

I f a player has not gained 1 XP in one months time, they will be temporary demoted to recruit rank, until they return.

Ranks above general are given to players that are willing to help with ranking.

Players that have the rank Lieutenant or higher are allowed to invite other players to the clan, if they meet the requirements.

FAQ


- I met an Ironman player, can I recruit him/her?
If the player meets the requirements, metioned above, ask a Lieutenant rank or higher to invite them.

- How come 'Player A' has a higher rank than me, when we joined the clan together?
It may be possible that we overlooked you for a promotion, if you think this is the case let us know and we will have a look.

- I've been a member in the past, can I still join?
Unfortunately not, we'd like you to be pure free-to-play to avoid having advantages over other clan members.

- If I leave the clan and return some time later do I get my clan rank back?
No, if you leave the clan and return again later you will have to start over again from Recruit rank.


If you have any questions regarding F2P Ironman mode, you can ask them here or check out this useful thread.

Thanks for making this thread Frostin! Hopefully this will also help spread the word around & the F2P ironman community will become even more tightly woven, and not so far-spread. :) It would be nice to see everyone cooperating as a single entity instead of having so many split branches. And even if you don't grow large at first, don't lose faith! Word of mouth eventually will take hold & you'll get bigger in time. :)

Something I might suggest is to lay out a few rules for the clan, as well as maybe have a post dedicated to events if you you ever plan to host any. It might not hurt to reference the friend's chat here as well. But other than those few nit-picks, thread looks great so far. ;) (Also, sorry if I posted too early!)
