Downyz Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 So it's pretty obvious that the overall population within the pure community has declined within the past couple years. I would think that with an increase in OSRS players because of Mobile release, we would also see an influx of newcomers checking out the pure clanning scene; that shit ain't happening. My question is why? Why are we shrinking as a community when OSRS is growing as a game? Is there anything that we as a community can do to help alleviate this problem? Truthfully I don't even play the game anymore, but you would think that someone who really cares about pure clanning would have brought this up by now; oh wait maybe thats it!

I feel that. Maybe we should work on the culture within clans? That way, newer players would be more than happy to spend the money to make sure that their squad wins ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I daresay most of the growth have been absorbed by the XLPC scene. They went from 4 to nearly 18 clans/snipe teams in a month. The current higher pulling LPC(or the main bulk of 1-20 def pure clanning) is a lost cause atm because some clan leaders are on a continuous PMS cycle leading to unceasing starvation, main bringing and suppression of any new clans opening. However you have lower pulling LPCs who are doing their own rev trips and a recently, a newly formed group of clans pledging to be non toxic.

Scims Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 xLPC is the hottest scene right now and has the most potential in terms of bringing in new wave of 2019 clanners at low levels. puppyslush and Owl 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pkeru Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 The problem is that the same leadership with the same recycled clans and same people joining them. Kids would rather join a clan and be glory hunters than to find new people into the scene and train them to be leaders/ranks. It's always the same people opening clans and when they get bored clans die. Look at the clan me and some friends founded TP. We have about 3 or 5 ranks who have been in the scene for a while but our officers and below are fresh into the clanning scene. Nobody wants to take the time to teach new kids in the ways of clanning+ you have toxic kids who are very competitive and that makes newcomers leave then to just have fun and enjoy rs clanning. Idk that's what I've notice in the last 2 years of clanning. Owl, kyleG, Stompy and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yaz Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 It’s not dying It’s just not the same scene you recognise LPC pulls combined would hit approx 600 right now (weekend trip) xlpc pulls about 600 too it’s just spread over more clans that’s about 1k players (since some overlap between scenes) i do wish more LPCs would open so we could have 8 clans pulling under 100 rather than 5 clans pulling over it, but new clans will open, or old clans will reopen because no one ever really quits RuneScape, they just take breaks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edjez Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 Only jagex could improve the scene by getting 1-5 def worlds and a clanwars update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusher Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 Clanning got out of the hand. Everyone are grown up man now. Ppl take the game to serious, leaders arent capable of making the right decisions for the whole clans sake. Clans use propoganda and lies to set their members against other clans. Clans rather starve eachother from action or use scummy techniques to win. Jagex doesnt give two fucks about the pure scene. And kids rather play other games now then a rng based game wich takes 1000+ hours to JUST get a good account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 Should just stop having separate trip times. Force people to commit to one clan, in one big community like the old days. The best will survive and compete, those not will be forced to adapt or die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
