Good Evening RoV! :D

So, I appreciate your posts Sxy, and I truly appreciate the motivation and passion behind them. I will also start by saying that I will help you (and all the other members of RoV involved) in the efforts you explained.

However, I feel I need to clarify the plan that Greg and I have been talking to clan members about and working out over the past few weeks. First, while the word "disband" has been thrown around, we were not planning on disbanding.

Being a member of this clan has become part of my runescape identity. As long as I am playing this game, this clan will exist.

We planned on transitioning to operating out of a friend's chat instead of a clan chat. We planned on using the runescape forums to maintain a simple thread. This thread would explain who we were, when our occasional events would be, and allow us to keep in touch with allies. The cc would also be kept open by alts, to protect our clan name. I feel the community would still be able to stay strong being operated in this fashion.

The reasoning behind this idea: From talking to prominent members in the clan, I began to understand that many people are feeling trapped here. They must stay in RoV out of duty, loyalty, and friendship...yet we dont offer the structure and events that would make the clan even more fun. Furthermore, few of us have the time to devote to restructuring the clan and revamping it to the level we would like to fully enjoy it as a "clan chat." Therefore, I came up with the idea that we could operate out of a fc and thread, maintain our tight community, but also allow our members to join large social clans (via the cc function) that offer events which RoV is not able to offer. All of the members of the clan that Greg and I were able to contact in game were receptive to this idea, or were willing to follow those of us who thought it was a good idea.

So, while I will abandon this plan and I will help you restructure RoV and recruit new life...I need you to understand why we made the decisions we did, and what you are asking us and all the other members of RoV to do...

We have no doubt our community will stay together. So what you are asking is for us to stay in the cc, in a clan chat system without events and solid structure...essentially, you are asking those who feel trapped to continue to feel trapped until we can all, by our combined efforts, revitalize our events and structure.

Your goal is worthy, I do not mean to insult you. I just need you to understand that if we are not successful in our revitalization attempts, we will have wasted more peoples time (because they could have enjoyed the same benefits recived while in the friends chat). In addition, there is a chance we will continue to lose solid members to other clan chats (in the time it takes to become an active clan again), and we may lose contact with them. That consequence will also be connected to our decision to save the clan chat and citadel, instead of moving into a friends chat.



Finally, I will start the process of helping with a suggestion (my usual suggestion): If we are to revitalize the clan and have positive recruitment, I truly feel that we must regain our POC structure. Why would a rs player in today's climate wish to join a small social clan made from an old poc...I think they will want to go to the big active social clans with lots of events. Our ability to draw people will depend on the roleplay aspect of POC life that we offer. We need coherent government structure, we need departments, we need churchs and shops, we need allies and allied events...once the POC structure is in place, we can attract those players looking for our specific type of clan.

Wild Page 2 has your clan invite. Enjoy!

Really excited about how everyone is starting to come together and we are going to get things done! A couple things need to be hammered out but that is normal of most plans. Hopefully this weekend will help shed some light on any confusions people may still have and paint a beautiful picture of the future we plan for RoV.
