Look I know the idea might not be that popular, and people seem to be very adamant on this but I really think it might be a good idea to include a section on Clans.

I can give you guys some really good reasons to justify it if you would let me.

1. The number of users who " Just " use the clan forums. It's like a cave there, once you go in you don't come out trust me, that was Sal's for me for a while.

2. The fact that topics there can manage 600 views an hour for a well anticipated war, I've created many topics there, I'd know that.

3. The fact that Jagex makes so many updates centered on clans alone shows you how many people are involved with clans. A newspaper is a newspaper and newspapers are part of the press. The press always does better when it relates to it's readers, not only does it draw their readers more deeply into the paper, it also proves more readers, as the material would be relevant to more readers.

4. The job of the press is to be honest, and provide people with an unbiased understanding of things, as well as some entertainment. You can't totally fulfill that without being open - minded which might be part of the " anti clan " feeling I sense in these forums.

Remember I am not trying to change things, I'm trying to improve them.
Adam?
We don't need two sections dedicated to one game, and we really don't need a full section dedicated to a certain aspect. If you want, you could join the paper and give a "Clan Update" article for Runescape Discussion every month, but that's the most you would get.

It's unnecessary, and not a very good idea.

From the way people were posing it earlier they made it seem as though I couldn't just write about clans though. I am not saying two seperate sections for one paper, I'm saying add it in there somewhere.
Adam?
Then apply for Runescape Discussion and write the article yourself. I doubt people were saying you couldn't write about clans, as that is a part of Runescape.

Listen PK.

Heres the Runescape Discussion section

Are Clans part of RS? Yes? Then stop trying to get your own corner, hush and take the job that they gave you. You got in, just reapply and they will probably give you your own minisection space every issue.

Same with quite alot of sub forums, if you enter the fakes forums you'll be neglected
(we don';t want your cake...hisss!)

So we look at the topics instead of newspaper articles

Clan wars and Clan chat I can't think of much else

|How is the newspaper going to help that, everyone is biased apart from dani biggrin.gif

Okay, so how many articles can you fit in if we were to make this section? tongue.gif There aren't too many Clan Events and Discussion article writers, to be precise. And I'm not sure if we can only have one writer, unless that one writer is willing to write a ton of articles...

The only reason no one writes about Clans on the paper is that no one here is all that massive on Clans. Most people here either don't play RuneScape or don't Player-Kill or participate in Clan Wars and subsequent activities.

If you want to write RS Clans then do so in RuneScape Discussion. If you want to write about Sal's Clans then write about it in Forum & Site Discussion. Problem solved!
