The reason I started Vlogging was for more attention :) For real though, it was because I was sick of the same discussion that plagued these boards for the past 3 months. It was all the same material.
Over the past few months, not too much has changed except for a few rant videos and some "two-cents" here and there discussions. At this point and time Zybez itself has conceded and the future is looking dim. Yet from Des Troyer
"I heard that the Twitch viewers of the recent DMM tournament peaked at 25,000. That has to transate as 25,000 people who are interested enough in PvP, lest why would they have been watching in the first place. In addition to that, there would have been people who couldn't watch the stream, forgot to tune in, or people who are interested in PvP warring but have zero interest in watching people doing it on streams (I didn't bother tuning in, did you?). So that 25,000 is an absolute minimum number of people interested in PvP (or at the very least are curious), which means over 25,000 people who would enjoy being in PvP clans."
There is still potential for the clan world to take advantage of. I say day in and day out to make Jr. Clans only because it can be difficult for higher levels who are already settled in to actually want to change their ways. Why not find ways to capture the younger generations who actually have interest to play the game in which we all share together. At this moment, I still play this game out of nostalgia but it is slowly going away. There is still a dim light lying in the faint enthusiasm that I have left. Clans like Vanguard, and New Bloods continue to follow through and try to tap into the potential that this game currently has.
Unfortunately, my way of telling clans to make Jr. Clans certainly comes off differently. I am wrong to think that clans are not actively trying to recruit but I am simply asking you guys to think outside of the box. My apologies if I come off as arrogant, or even oblivious to how other clans bring people into the clan world. It is only because I think you guys who continue to play day in and day out have what it takes to help out the Zybez Community and the Clan World all together. If it was up to me, I would have Jagex pay monetary prizes for the J-Cup. I would have Jagex bring more attention to clans like Fools, clans like Rot, and clans like Di. I want you all to remember is that if you feel clanning is really fun for you, why not put more effort into bringing new people in :)
How have you guys felt about clan discussion this past year? I can only hope more people get involved aside from the weekend banter on CD Fights and same crash war ideology.
