We sit here and wonder what happened... I. The Current state The pure community as we know it is in shambles, and hardly exists. We sit here as our long lost glory is now masked by the cancer that is high defence, selling clan locations, specific clan times, spies, DDoSing, attacking player's real life information. How is this fun and how does this define anything that is pure clanning? The current state of the pure community is now not a pure community, but main clans that accept pures into their clan. They use this as an excuse to still call themselves pure, but they're in denial. 35-40 defence is being used in such clans and has now left me to believe all is lost for the old community, and everyone should just face the facts and go up to main-dom. These clans also base their "fun" off of specific times to Pk at, for just the weekend, with like 50% or less pulls of their clan. And if these clans don't get the "leaks" of their rival clans, they will have a horrible trip. These clans feel the need to do anything to win on their only scheduled weekend events to show their "power?". Sounds really fun to me, big time. So what do they do to add more fun to the table? They add weekday events, that you should sign up for! Everything in this clan community is based on schedules that works for every clan, not for a single clan, because the only thing that's important is their "power". These clans are afraid to go off and do their own thing, they won't even p2p on saturday and f2p on sunday because the other clans "don't do that". Who the fuck cares what other clans do? None of you are pure anyways so I really don't give a shit what any of you do; and the fact that they need to have scheduled trips, leaks, spies and defence to beat their rival main clans who also have leaks, spies and defence in order to live, is just pathetic. Can't even be different or try to have fun in their type of community or you fail as a clan. II. The Chance Some of us have had chats these past few months, and probably the same ones as I was having a year ago. It's time for a change, and a big one at that. It's time to bring back the real pure clans, and it's time to bring back the real way of pure clanning. No more of this bullshit leaks or spies and what not. It's time to bring the fun back. Even mains in the current community say "I wanna make a low lvl for FUN" or make a clan for "FUN." Because their current clan or community sucks so hard that it isn't fun, and it is super serious business, which is what pure clanning is about... NOT. It's time my friends, it's time to make the biggest change this community has ever seen, and thats the split of main and pure alike. Others and I have agreed that in order to do so you need to build everything back from the ground up. This being, LPC's or Low Level Pure Clans. Clans that are real pure clans, they focus on the real art of being pures by staying as low of a defence as possible. With that foundation of keeping the art of purity alive, we can establish rules to go with it, which is combat and defence caps, thus keeping it pure. In order to start this type of community, you're going to need more than 1-2 pure clans. Yes there are masser clans and tons of kids pking at our levels, but that's half the fun. Having that extra competition just adds that full effect of true pure clanning of the old days. With so many more options available, the fun will never stop. With that I hope any guest reading this that isn't join AI, will go on to make their own with a group of friends and come join the party. We will also need to do things apart from the "norm" of this previous main-like community. Instead of relying on specific trips and times to attack clans, we'll need to pk randomly throughout the day and throughout the week, and stay away from the times that the mains stay at(not like they can attack us anyways, but even if we grow to be higher, we will need to show that pure clans do not compete with main clans and we stick to ourselves.) Do not be afraid to go off and do your own thing, you have nothing and no one to impress but yourself and your members. With the change in what your clan and our clan do throughout the weekend, and the distance that we create with the main clan world, they will have no-one to compete with, but themselves. Of which they die in the end or just become fullblown main clans. With our new clans formed, we will need to keep a close knit on what our rules are and how we will form this new community, because we cannot and I repeat, CANNOT, allow what happened to the former shit community that stands today. I give all my respects to Enemy (NME) for being the only pure clan left in that community, I pity and envy them so much. There is no reason to lie to themselves that they enjoy fighting clans in armour, because that's not fun at all. My respects to you guys, and I hope more clans will be coming up to see you soon and we can all branch off to a new community and competition filled with more enjoyable people and more enjoyable ways to have rivalries. III. The Archaic
Is what we stand for, the old ways of pure clanning. With the prior statements to this topic, The Archaic will stand for everything that is to come, and help revitalize the ways of the old styled pure clanning. -In irony, we will help bring in the new era, which will be based on the old era. We will stand for everything that use to be and what will be.- The Archaic will allow multi-clanning for one sake and one sake only. It's not for that +1 person, but just to allow members from shit main clans to join and to prove to them that they are missing out on real pure clanning and that I can convince them to stay or go make their own one. I want you to leave this clan knowing what real pure clanning is, and I want you to fucking know how to properly do it. If you're multi-clanning or a leader reading this right now, don't take offence but I'm showing you one of the secrets as to why I'm allowing multi-clanning because I don't give a shit and I know I'm right and I know I can show your members how much more fun they can have. The Archaic will be pking randomly throughout the week, and possibly weekends. It depends on if people want to pk or not, but that doesn't even matter because it's just members asking other members if they want to pk... you know like friends? I'm going to allow members to lead random trips whenever they please, even if I'm on and with them. I want this to be a friendly environment and I want to teach people how to lead and how to have fun in this game. I also want to take this and put it in the stand point of how teams use to play in the wilderness or the random friends that would just enter the wild to play. That's what we're doing, playing and having fun. I will take over if need be though, and the ranks that are earned through AI will also be leading whenever they choose(they'll be picked on how well you do with actively starting up trips and running them), so don't get any ideas ;). The trips will be based off of respect earned through everyone given a chance. With that all said, that's also the reason for the initials "AI". It stands for artificial intelligence, which is how the clan will be ran, it will live off on it's own having fun and doing whatever it pleases under the guidelines set by me and Ai. Everything I do or say has a million reasons and meanings behind it, remember that. Last but not least, we will not be accepting anyone with 5 defence or more, and we will not be doing any of these "matched" fights, and we sure as hell won't be using clan wars. Clan wars is what killed the pure community in the first place, I don't see the reasoning in using the machine that started our demise, it's just ironic and stupid. And if you want to find AI, or fight us, it'll be in the wilderness. If you want to prep us, expect it to be our pull against your pull, I don't give a shit if I'm outnumbered, it's runescape not life; not gonna cry over losing pixels. IV. The Utopia Imagine 10+ lower level clans, all pulling the same, all having the same requirements, and the same morals. Imagine all that, and the massers plus random pking. This is what it all use to be like, and it was fun as fuck. I hope to see this happen, it's crazy and sounds impossible but at least I'm willing to give it a shot, because honestly I don't see myself in that community or in any of those clans. I want to have fun and I want to play the game for what it is, not for what a standard main community wants it to be. I wish for all to see this and to try something new... which ironically is something old. They all said they needed to adapt to the change to the new times. I say nothings changed, you can still be 1 defence, they didn't take that away. I say "they" changed, and I say it's time for us to change back. Edited by Matt, Dec 28 2011, 03:34 AM.

Ahh, this is it. I had, almost, a faint, not sure if it was there or not, smile while reading this. And yet I said I would not train a new pure for this, I lied. I will have one ready soon. Thank you for this oppertunity. -Chad |

I like your idea, and I agree with your belief about the current state of what once was the pure community, will be a fun ride. |

It can't be the same as it was in the past. But there can be to some extent a slight reliving. The mean reason being that back then we were all in high school (in some cases middle school) and now most of us are college students working jobs, meaning we don't have the same amount of time. So as far as these smaller clans competing against each other, I don't think it will ever be a big thing. It will for the most part stick to late night events which in its own way is a nice release from the stress of living in the grown up world when it can be allowed for each individual. Although that can make for large amounts of inactivity, which if things stay at a reasonably loose pace isn't a bad thing. |

Well after actually going ahead and starting to pk and such, I can see hope in more clans opening up if only they realized how fun it is, but with my anti-publicity, that really doesn't help much due to I don't want cancer joining this forum and would rather attempt to do the more impossible of the two and hopefully inspire more massers to be made and pk and then become a mirror image of out clan(s). You're correct on the times though, and how to incorperate it with the wilderness. Its a shot in the dark at 11pm est that you're gonna get some action. Since most of the clan is of young adults to adults, that's usually the time we go PKing. So far we've done amazing with what we have, be able to worn with, that is out timezone. Everyone can vouch at how much fun they're having at the moment. But we are stuck they unless I leave work early or someone decides to step up and lead without me. My current plan is to move times back to 7-8 pm. As we ended up PKing for 3hrs non-stop decimating everything. But with that, I'm looking for a leader to take control with earlier hours and to help expand out influence, timezone-wise. We need gmt people, and we need to door privately. With that we will fully be the clan that I'm envisioning. Close knit, private, active, organized and trendsetting. Once we have all timezones cleared and know when exactly we should pk at, well start getting new kid on runescape to join, who of which will keep this alive and new. Don't mind the spelling mistakes, this phone kills with autocorrect Edited by Matt, Jan 12 2012, 03:12 AM.

I just don't see the low level seen becoming populated again in today's Runescape. Granted I would agree that in its current state it is fun enough, but I don't see there being more then 10 clans/groups (I'd argue less then 5 clans/groups honestly) out around the same time so the competition will be no where near what it was back in the old days. And over time I wonder if that will hinder what a lot of people hoped this would turn into and whether or not it creates a decrease in activity. But far be it from me to rain on everyone's parade

I'm not too worried on ther clans, but moreso the activity the wild has. We've had non-stop action every night, and to me that's all the matters at the moment. Really is just 04 pking and we're just taking our time with no seriousness to be added. Hopefully we're trendsetters but in reality all the matters is we're enjoying ourselves for the time being. And we really don't go out on the weekend because the clan currently revolves around me, and as you already know I work all weekend til late nights missing most competition, as well as till late night everyday.

What about high combat pures, with low def, who are still in their clans, but would want to join? Do u allow them, or only if they train a new pure? (Which many people would refuse to the time it takes, or other reasons?) Aren't u afraid that all the experienced and valuable members are joining ur clan, leading the other clans to that less quality/quantity that they possible go to spying/cheating/whatever reasons just to not get beaten? And seeing u got so many experienced members, and also the ability in this clan to learn how to get a (pk) leader, don't u think if people have settled here for quite some time, they just don't want to leave because of their friends here, or the amount of fun? How are u gonna reach new pures, basically alot of people here know the pure world since it the good days, yet there still alot of mains making pures these days, but with the amount of 30 def publicity of 30 def, and now even 1-45 in Pot, aren't u afraid these new ppl will get turned on to easily by the high hits and better def that turm/zerk provides? So yeah how are u basically gonna show the rs world that this form of pure is better, more fun and more sticking to the original way pures were ment to be. Haven't played rs for months, so my info may be out of date or slighty wrong, just some questions that popped up reading ur speech. |
