Clan Leader rank

[OIdwildy]

G'day everyone. My name is OIdwildy.

Now that I've baited you in with my topic title, let's talk about EF.

They're a sh- lol nah just trolling, this topic is srs.

 

While I was reading topics and thinking a bit, I found a nuisance.

 

There isn't a single clan I like anymore!

Every clan I see here that has the potential to do big, play in a mature and fun way with other clans get demolished by their own immature member base. 13 year olds getting baited too soon, forgetting to turn off profanity filters... the list goes on.

When a clan is featured in another clan's topic, some kids jump on it to defend their clan. Nothing wrong with it, until it gets out of hand.

And since the mods can't just close every topic for us, and have to hide 80% of the replys anyway, these flames keep getting out of hand.

 

As a great man once said;

 

No rivalries anymore, it's just blatant hate.

 

This is all too truthful. The biggest reason for this are aftermath topics. I admit to being part of the blame, but let's stop pointing fingers and start rebuilding this community.

 

What is my proposition?

To give the Clan Leader rank on purewarfare semi-mod powers.

No, I don't mean give Inu the power to mute TH members (- what? He already has that power? Bias.)

What I want to see is clan leaders have the power over members of their own clan. When one of your own members goes out of line, you don't give him warn and let his comment keep fueling the hate, no, the clan leader himself can just 'hide' that reply, or mute said player for a certain ammount of time. This will keep your clan looking mature and Zen, instead of a bunch of butthurt crybabies.

 

I'd also like the Clan Warfare section to get cleaned up a bit. Topic makers (LULZ ME- nah, just keep the power with the clan leaders) should get the 'power' to hide replies. Yes, it's bias. But way too many topics get off topic as soon as a person from a rivalling clan gets on it; even if they weren't featured. And fanboys jump on haters, and the hatred continues.

If you have a different view on what happened on the fight, and you can't express those feelings in someone elses topic, you can just make your own. And opposing members won't be able to flame your topic. Everyone happy. And so everyone will become one big happy family again.

 

Will this solve rivalries? Nope. Rivalries are needed; it gives both clans a purpose and a reason to get out and kick some ass. A reason to train and grind this game called 'scape.

But the Hatred between clans is what should be fixed.

Nobody is forcing you to get on friendly base with members in opposing clans, but just interacting in a polite or mature way with fellow gamers could be a real great experience, because face it; your clan isn't the only one with a great memberbase with some serious clanpride.

Good idea, Support!

[Yawnz]

Good idea, only problems would be Clan Leaders actually taking the step to hide their member's flame/troll/bait.

 

I think the major problem is two clans claiming a win while providing proof that conflict each other's claims.......if nobody claimed a win and if nobody implied taking the win it would solve everything. But that'll never happen ;)

[Lawson]

Would be a good idea, But there is no way Karl can make it so I could only hide Zenith members comments. I'm sure alot of clan leaders would abuse this and hide anything on there topics and maybe just go round hiding anything they can on stuff nothing to do with aftermath topic. You would think all the clan leaders and mature sensible and smart, so did I until I was given access to view the "clan leader" section on the forums.

 

But I do think this is a good idea is it could be executed correctly.

I think it's a good idea, but some clan leaders may not be as active as they should be and may not keep up with all their out-of-hand members or may not control it when they see it. Which only deletes a small percentage of the idiots on this site. Regardless, I think it's a good idea ~ small percentage is better than none.

 

Good topic mate.

[badger]

find me an admin that wants to set up member groups for every clan, give leaders permissions over that member group, and do it everytime a clan closes/opens

 

 

 

cool idea, but it won't happen man

[Feelthef1re]

Where is the love? :(

Hello, my name is Mr. LanCleader and I think that Your idea is great! I think reducing flaming between clans is the first step in overcoming the ever-continuing downgrading of this community!

 

*goes to the clan warfare section*

"you are stupid, you should stop feeding your clan propaganda and here is one random picture which makes everything look like we won. now gtfo purewarfare and stop flaming and take example from me, anyway you won't be a problem for long cuz we'll close your sht clan"

 

*goes to his clan's forum*

"Dear members,

-insert motivational ********-

please stop flaming on pure-warfare, i know that -insert clan- is sht and we're so much better and laik omfg we own nubs and we so awesome, but please stop."

 

 

 

Point being, giving these privileges to clan leaders will ultimately fail simply because clan leaders are some of the people who bait/flame the most.

 

 

And anyway, if a clan leader cannot control his members simply by asking not to flame, then maybe he/she should reconsider the value of those members to the clan.

[ydoC]

How would you grant such a "power" to be able to hide/warn only your own members?

 

 

edit: lol just read bager's reply and I think its the only way to do it, and it won't happen

[OIdwildy]

I will not interfere and let this topic mature on its own.

[blue]

people make troll accounts and flame on that but w\e

 

 

not much we can do good idea i must admit but i can think of way it could cause problems

[I Serbia l]

tldr

[DRAKEE]

Or we can just lock the aftermaths topics immediatly so that there are no flame topics. Most leaders (if they get the power you requested) will abuse against the enemy clan they rage @. Easyest and quickest way without any disregards. If you have YOUR way of seeing things, post it :)

[Solo]

So pretty much the topic maker can make a topic of complete ******** and hide any replies challenging its validity or disproving the facts of it.

 

Sounds like a smashing idea m8.

looking at it this way :/

[Craveb]

stop making beast topics

[Azrael]

Love the idea of allowing clan leaders to moderate their own members even if I doubt it will happen. Don't like the idea of topic creators being able to mod, I think that should be left to the real mods.

[Sirswat]

Its a good idea, and I support the idea of rebuilding this PC, however, most of these clans nowadays have kids who care WAY too much about runescape and WAY too many immature kids who cannot control themselves. If it was up to me I would have already banned a lot of members and keep the ones that dont cause problems.

fun idea

The abuse and blatand lies (if proven to be lies by either pictures or videos) would result in said topic creator/clan leader having his rank/rights removed.

Can you imagine EOP ranks with MOD on PW

[Seany]

Great Idea in theory. But what if that member does not want to be "affiliated" with their clan and people know they are from that given clan. Then who hides their flame? No one wants to be controlled by anyone even their leaders.

Lol idiot

 

Although good in theory It would be a lot of work to do.
