    Hey Gene. +)

     

    It's great to see you Tom! I'm glad you're still around.

     

    Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I love this combination of old and new faces. It makes me feel like WG is thriving, which I'm glad to see

    Hi everyone,

     

    I'm His Lordship, old leader of WG. Was speaking to Stokenut, and old friend I made here years back, and got a little nostalgic so here I am!

    IN A NUTSHELL

    RSN: His Lordship

    Name: Gene

    Age: 32

    Country: New Zealand

     

    ABOUT MY RS HISTORY

    • Started in July 2003, and founded WG in December 2003 at level 45ish (in RS Classic)
    • Led WG as the main focus of my RS time, and didn't bother doing much skilling and other content
    • Backed off slightly from leadership around 2010, and then pretty much fully around 2013 when Mojo took over
    • Tried to come back to RS once or twice but couldn't find enough time
    • Still want to come back to OSRS, but life is busy
    • Became a somewhat enthusiastic Youtuber, which helped recruitment for the clan
    • Visited Jagex studios twice, once for fun and once to workshop legacy mode in RS3
    • Went to every Runefest from 2010 (the first one) to 2016.
    • I know very little about what's happened to the game since 2013. That's kind of exciting because I get to relive the discovery when I do return.

     

    ABOUT MY LIFE

    • I grew up in Australia, spent a few years living in the UK where I met some WG members, and now live in New Zealand
    • I love board games, working out, LARPing, classical music, fantasy fiction and adventure travel
    • I'm a music teacher, mostly for high school, but right now looking for work
    • I have a partner, Dan, who I've been with for two years now.
    • WG still affects things in my life. I like the colour purple because it was our cape colour, and my gym locker is 27, because that was our homeworld. Other silly little things like that.

     

    I will try harder to visit theser forums and connect with people. I miss my old friends dearly, and I'm looking forward to making some new ones.

    About time someone took over from Mojo!! ;)

     

    Welcome (back?) :)

     

     

    This sounds interesting

    Medieval cooking is indeed very interesting... If you find food poisoning interesting haha. I haven't quite mastered it yet.

    Oh man... you summed it up really well Mojo.

    A few things.

     

    I agree with your belief that it was our ability to adapt and try new things that let us live this whole time. Runescape changed a lot, and we really had to work hard to keep up. I also think it was sheer luck. Between you and me, we had two leaders who persevered. It really wasn't easy and not many people had the tenacity to stick things through. That's where your second point is especially relevant... we had beliefs worth fighting for, and that motivated us to keep going through the hard times. Finally. I think the real life meetings were critical in keeping us alive. We stopped being a game and started really becoming a community.

     

    Also... wow at the Tmal screenshot. I don't remember it being that intense either.

     

    Third, thanks for the compliments everyone. Narrating this video took a while because I had a very dry mouth haha.

    Hi everyone,

     

    Looks like I'll be annoying you with plenty of posts in the forseeable future.

    This is actually my first time on these forums, so I'm keen to see if there are any familiar faces.

    It also appears that Mojo was kind enough to assign me leader rank, though I assure you I won't be leading in any capacity (this may change in a few months).

     

    For those of you I haven't yet had the pleasure of meeting, I'm His Lordship, former leader of the Wilderness Guardians.

     

    A brief timeline:

    • Started Runescape in August 2003
    • Founded WG in December 2003
    • Led WG until about 2013
    • Remained in regular contact with WG until about 2016

     

    Some basic player info:

    • I used to be well known as a video-maker. I'd love to start again.
    • I *may* still hold the record of being the longest serving clan leader in Runescape
    • Australia is my current home. I lived in the UK for four years (2012-2016) I've met at least 40 clan members around the world
    • I was not as good a leader as Mojo is. If you were unlucky enough to be under my tyranny, I had regular temper tantrums and poorly thought out decisions.
    • I will be starting up on OSRS. I dislike RS3 but I tried my best to get into it... I just couldn't

     

    Some real life info:

    • I'm a musician. Specifically I'm a classically trained composer. I teach piano full time
    • I have a boyfriend (I'm bi), and he lives in Bali. He'll be moving to Australia sometime next year.
    • I travel a lot. Not including trips to Bali to see my partner I usually take three or four overseas trips a year.
    • I'm a dedicated bodybuilder and I'm at the gym six days a week
    • Random interests of mine including LARP, scuba diving, medieval cooking, fantasy novels and cross-country hiking.

     

    I'm so excited to get to know everyone again. I grew up with this clan and it'll be part of me for as long as I live. I'm looking forward to a treasure trove of new memories.
