I'm not sure if I'm the only one that has been hearing that from other people about Runescape dying - or atleast the clan world soon. 3-4 clans have closed recently in the past month or so. Instead of dwelling on it and constantly looking at the negatives, think about the positives or work towards them. For one, why are we relying on Jagex to do something create for us when we can just do it ourselves? We used to have epic world wars in the old wilderness, what happened to that? What happened to meaning 'honor'? All you hear about on CD RSC is propaganda, ddosing and crashing nowadays apart from the normal/legit topics.
I will admit, it is very hard to find fresh blood with decent quality, and it does tend to effect small and mid sized clanning a lot. And some people have grown up and moved on with real life and retired from Runescape. It takes effort to do anything. Which brings me to this; As bad as this MIGHT sound, what if we had to promote our clan world to RSB? For the ones that were interested ofcourse. Sure, their quality won't be as good. But it's a step. It's a step to increase clan activity and growth in the clan world. For an example, we could promote in a way where we do RSC vs RSB in PvP, in f2p AND p2p. I'm not saying 'let's get all rsb clans to start using a fansite called rsc'. I'd like to think of this as a general statement to get the clan world in to a positive state if people really think the clan world is 'dying'.

1) Do you think the clan world is dying? If so, why? 2) Any ideas on how to get the clan world back in growth? 3) What did you think about the RSB idea? 4) What creative ideas are there left for the clan world's interest?
