You always blame yourself, which is 1 of your major flaws imo. You cant just take the blame, when everybody knows it WASN'T your fault.

They had amazing binds, moved a step, got binded, and so on, thats what we need tbh. I got koed, but at least i lasted a little while, 30+ Members on you whilest not moving with 79 def, aint a good combination if we're honest.

Yes i know my defence is bad, and YES i am training, got 200k XP in a matter of 4 or 5 hours in the past 2 days. Was barely on yesterday, and woke up late today, so i couldnt do much more. Im ill atm, so i wasn't going to spend all day on the computer with a head ache and sickness for the sake of 1 defence level.


However im sure we will do better next time around!

If you don't have a positive attitude, then we're all screwed, the blame could be put on anybody.

That's counting emeritus as regular members, which is pretty pointless. Emeritus are emeritus because they likely can't make events for one reason or another. Sure, full-out wars should be an exception in an ideal world, but often people have good reasons for being emeritus, so you can't count on them like that.

If we start telling people we have 128 members, we're shooting ourselves in the foot. Its realisticly more of a 50% turnout, which still isn't fantastic but bearing in mind the time of year (and a sunday, as you said), its pretty good.

I know what emeritus is. I maintained that rank for like a year. I'm just saying that out of all the things emeritus don't have to do, I don't think attending 1 war is too bad. I think we should be able to at least count on a few of them showing up.

And even if I don't count emeritus, that's still a pretty shitty turnout.

Boy, you make a great point, except...I was one of the only people to NOT GET KOED. So next time you want to flame me for my combat level(sorry I have a life), use some fucking logic. It's not about levels. It's about skill. I know level 126s that get koed way more often than I do.

Having a lower level is not a fault. I've gone from level 86-106 in 4 years. I don't train a lot. But does that stop me from doing my job in wars? Fuck no.

And writing a personal recap for the benefit of the clan is the raid leader's job? I've got news for you, nobody wrote a fucking recap so I DID. WELL I'm so sorry for taking some initiative and trying to help out my clan. And what the fuck are you doing? Pissing on other peoples' work. Other people are helping. You are hurting. Sure, you've been in this clan before, but you are currently a trial member. Trials should be showing respect and maturity if they wish to remain a member of this community. Way to fail.

I'm not flaming you.
I'm pointing out you could be more useful if you trained.

Flaming..flame-baiting..it's all the same thing. Don't do it.

Don't fucking tell me what to do. I can't believe we let you into this clan again.

Levels are not everything. A find that a lvl 100 who attends events and wars, binds at wars, knows how to tank, anti-rpks, shows respect inside and outside the clan, and stays loyal to the clan is more valuable than a 126 who may for one reason or another not do many of these things.

And anyone write a recap, especially an elite guardian and especially if no raid leader is willing to make one. I think it is pretty good recap actually, pretty much what any raid leader would have said.
 
--------------------

Um Rachel, we're not sexist, I see you mention stuff similar to that a lot of times but come on, just because the majority of the clan are males doesn't necessarily mean females have to do double the work lol.

I fail in seeing how it is your fault. This war was lost as soon as we entered Clan Wars, mainly because we relied on our numbers to decimate them. I think we should do something about our pull (52 is very nice, but as colin pointed out, it's not great), we had 58 'Yes' signups so I was expecting at least 58, not to mention the 'Unsure' and 'No' people who came. Levels were a factor, but not a deciding one.

Binding is another problem, I didn't bind as usual at this fight because I was getting sniped quite often, so I just did my old binding trick: Rune armour + Druidic top, it means more splashes but a lot less reduced sniping chance.

Organization, we had a little trouble at the start, but after that we were doing very well, could have better sniping but other than that, we did good.

KO's, always bound to happen, best thing to do is to reduce them, by getting at least 90 defence and coming to war trainings and small fights often.

Come on Maths L.
I'm level 113 F2P with 90 defence only and I managed to tank them for full food. It's not just the levels, we had a few 120's KO'd, I'm sure.

Come on Maths L.
I'm level 113 F2P with 90 defence only and I managed to tank them for full food. It's not just the levels, we had a few 120's KO'd, I'm sure.

All I'm saying is this:

After every single war we lose, somebody always writes how we can improve.
Yes sure, but like don't you realise that we pulled the same amount?
They have a 119 average compared to our 116.
Its pretty hard to do that stuff.
Can't we just accept a loss as being "outperformed".

And what I mean to colin is.
He always writes these suggestion thingies after wars.
He suggests to the whole clan ideas, but receives no feedback on how he himself can improve.

I'm telling him a direct way to improve.
If he's mastered the tanking + stuff, he can be a better tank by training.
And to colin, if you have such an active real life, why do you have enough time to complain?

Edit: I don't mean it forcefully, its just a suggestion. You suggest how the whole clan can improve, and I suggest how u can improve. Sure it may have come off a bit harsh, but thats just me. I mean no harm by it. People just listen if you tell them directly.
