OT Here; Thanks to -Charlie-
G'day y'all. Wilderness fights are something beautiful, yet clans stopped having them when Jagex made a faggy update. Do you really want to follow Jagex' rules and fight in a safe, ugly, Orb viewing environment?
Nope, ofc you all want to have Preps in the Wilderness. This will give experience and pleasure to your clan, and most importantly; your members. Let's go back to the days of old, and fight where fights were meant to be; leave Clanwars for the main clans who are afraid of losing pixels, or don't have the woodcutting level to return.
Does this mean I can't go into Clanwars anymore? Ofc not. You lead your own clan the way you want to. I'm not telling you to do anything, but if you want to fight in the Wilderness, but are afraid of the before mentioned reasons, this topic is for you.
While carefully reading the Wilderness Prep topic, I came to read the reason (NOT excuses; these are valid reasons which I understand) why clans stopped having them.
This is a huge problem, not only on preps but on saturdays. Is this fixable? Ofc it is. I wouldn't be making a topic if it wasn't.
'But how, oh great Oidwildy? How?'
By showing the leadership of clans you're trying to prep some mutual respect. I'm not telling your leadership to get along with every kid that flames your IRC on a daily base, but buck up, and show the clan that is supposed to help you train and give you a fun warring experience the respect it deserves.
An example of Respect;
You can't expect a clan you find yourself flaming day after day to Man up; they WILL steep to your level. If you really can't grow the balls to do this- don't Prep that clan. If the hatred between two clans is so big that crashes DO occur, then both clans can just decide not to prep each other anymore. Simple as that.
Another important rule will be Tardyness. When your leadership PMs your opponent, make sure the location and World will not be known to your or their members. Tell your members to hop at the very last second, Privates OFF (like any other saturday) and let the location only be known close to arrival. No time for sniping mains, or for that spy in your clan to call HF.
-Want proof that you can do this by showing your opposing clan respect?

Yes. Those two clans everyone here is flaming for being massers. Hell, they don't even respect each other. They hate each other more then Zenith hates Intense Redemption. Clans filled with spies and untrustworthy members. Clans nobody here can find the balls to respect; But those two clans can get a crashfree fight, why can't you?
-You don't have a clan that you respect/respects you anymore? Can't help you there mate, seems like you've isolated yourself in the pure community. I hope you find some fights on Saturday I guess.
There have been clans who are crying out for Wilderness preps.

Does your clan not want to participate? Is the safe haven of clanwars something for you? Feel free to keep doing this. This topic is only for those clans who want to explore the depths of the wilderness, not just 2 days a week. I will copy paste this answer whenever I see fit. ;)
