Hey everyone!

I've talked around to different clan mates, and some would like to grow the clan and keep leveling the citadel. Others are happy with a smaller clan, and some happy with the citadel the way it is now.

So, I'm putting this poll together to find out were we are at as a clan.

We have had a drop in clan participation, particularly in the citadel. I've seen activity start in the 40s, drop to the 30s, and drop again into the 20s.

There are benefits to having a small clan, most notably getting to know one another well and having a great closeness.

The benefits of having a medium-sized clan revolve around advancing the citadel to higher tiers and having more activity in the clan.

I have allowed vote cancelling in case people change their minds. The voting will run until Friday, March 9th, 2012 and close by 5:20 am est.

Please vote!

Thank you everyone.

I put undecided simply because I haven't had time to "play" rs just log on occasionally and see how things are going. I wouldn't feel as if I have a decent amount of knowledge to specifically say "yes we need to" or "no keep it" just because I myself haven't been as active as I'd like lately.

Granted Jagex should clean up a few of those new areas, I can't even walk into them, like the new Taverly and Burthorpe. Otherwise I would enjoy being on more often if things weren't so choppy.

I for one would love to see us get to the lvl with crafting and summoning!!

But I agree that theres an advantage to smaller clans, also a risk of picking up idiots but if it happens we can always solve the problem no? I say we recruit and use good judgement. I'm at a stand still at the citadel having 99 in everything we have and its such a chore atm.....but the updates coming in march are cool with the xp lamps and all I WANT TO LEVEL!!! Just sayin ........

Ok, I voted yes.

Here's why . . .

For one, I would love to see us get a Tier 7 citadel. Each successive tier has great benefits. At 7, we get an awesome dragon guardian in the citadel and a shimmering vex. There are other benefits, too.

With the participation we now have (23 people visiting and collecting resources), we will never pass Tier 4 for our citadel. That means no crafting or summoning which comes at Tier 5. No cooking at Tier 6. None of the extra special stuff at Tier 7.

Also, more than just the citadel it would be exciting to have a few more people and have more events and activities going on.

I'm not looking to have explosive growth. But a few new people each week would be cool.

Those are my ideas and what I'm hoping for as to growing the clan.

Citadels and clans might become more popular after this months update to the citadels.

ok so we have 48 people registered on the clan forums and only 11 have voted so far.

laughs cries hmmm

ok i'm going to dance on the citadel dance floor with my pet turkey now

Sorry, I didn't see this until it was too late to vote, but yes, I think we should try to recruit more. I would like to see where we can go in the citadel.

In an effort to lure more members to the citadel, perhaps you, Je, could put out a all clan memo letting people know that part of the recent update included changes at the citadel allowing faster resource collecting. No longer does one have to chop each branch individually, for example, as the update allows for consecutive chops on the same branch.

I, for one, find this change most appealing, as it makes a mundane task more likable, and I am able to do all requested work in a good frame of mind. I will say one thing tho, and I'm sure most people have realized it, that when you work on bars, it is better to do it in the order of ore, coal, and then bars, and then do all the operations in the same visit to the citadel. I was going to do just ore one night, and realized that when I returned, my resource would probably have been used, so waited until I could do all 3 operations at the same time.

Just a suggestion tho. Also like that I can check my progress at the citadel from the surface. Which tells me that our admin can probably check everyone. Good to know that someone is watching over the fold!!

Good ideas Chris! TY

Opps I read the forums but missed this one. I didn't vote but I think we should grow. I want a big citidel and a flashy vex. And we will most likely keep the closeness of the group we have now even if we get bigger and bigger. And to me - Strangers are friends I've not yet met - in growth there may be others we feel a kin to we won't know if we don't grow.

I agree with Chris too - the new way to gather resources is the bomb! Plus you can gain extra xp but getting at least enough for a clan ring each week. Thats incentetive. (spelled wrong maybe?)

So Lets get BIG!!!!!!!!!

Plus I was in a big group before moving over here on Zan and it was fun. Still had closeness.

Just my opinion
