The new Forum Leader, Coil101, has begun making massive changes to our forums. Bare with us until we have everything reconfigured into simpler groups, for easier access for all members of this forum.

They should be completed earliest, tomorrow night. Latest it may be is about the starting of next week.

Take your time, the NGoR HQ wasn't built overnight. I'm still working on it every single night, for almost the past 2 years. :P This is my baby, what can I say? :D

So yeah, the forum part is now yours to maintain if you want. But I still will supervise such things like bad material or if it seems to be going off in the wrong direction. I mean, I am the founder of clan MF-D afterall.. lol. But yeah, besides that, if all is is well, you are the head of the forum for MF-D RS (NGoR).

You can read it, can't you? This is because when the human mind reads something he doesn't look at the letters, but at the word as a whole. Therefore, the first and last letter must remain the same.

Trust. Without it, we would never be, for I have forever depended upon myself for everything. The community is growing, expanding into a larger area of players, in which I cannot read and reply to every single question by myself. Let alone, we need a team of people who are willing to put aside their obsession of playing the game, to know it takes more then just gamers to run a community. I have been carrying the entire load by myself. Waiting for someone to show potential to dedicate time to the site/forum, in order to maintain it for the gamers. Those who think this place runs itself, yet wouldn't have the time nor interest to edit the coding of the site, or reorganize the layout of the link, or tip site.

It was based upon trust that we even had out 2 other admin of the forum. But it is by game interest that they did not show potential or interest in building the site for more than the moment.

Trust me, I have been waiting for a long time, patiently hoping for the right person to come to our community, recognize what we lack, where we are, what goals we have in mind for a great community dedicated to helping the needs of friends, rather than just 'players' in a game-based world.

So, if you want a reason for change.. because it was not a matter of 'if', but more a matter of 'when'. And if you want a reason to trust, consider that one person cannot carry the weight of the world. It is the duty of every player to take his part in life, and to make the best of it. I saw the ability to succeed within Coil101, and I trusted his loyalty to society to help others, rather then tear down what we worked so long to build. And this is just the beginning. I plan to find more people who share the common goal of putting aside their game-life, to help build and maintain the backing of us all, of the community/tip site of the NGoR.

Without a chance to trust, you cannot find out if one is trustworthy. For I trusted each and everyone of you, as I have those you claim as your 'friends'. For if I had not trusted you, there would not a an NGoR.

Q. Why did you not ask everyone who would want to be forum leader?
A. This was a question brought up to me while earing some gp to get back items I lost after I died in lag.. again. But the answer is simple: potential to change the world, and lead others, is not a matter of recruitment. Sure, you can go around and ask 172 people, "Do you want to edit the forum every day, day after day, for the rest of your existance in the world of Runescape?" But what would this accomplish? Those who have potential to lead are found out by their interest in stuff beyond the game.

Coil101 was a very quizitive type from the start. Asking me about forum settings, I knew he came to the NGoR with pre-existing knowledge about running a site / forum. This was the first step, along a path of daily questions about how I created the layout of such pages, and forums, along with the history of clan MF-D, and such.

I was seeking those who show potential, rather than just asking for a position, but havin interests more into the game, rather than of building forums, site layouts, and other related matters. I wasn't looking to who I can recruit for the position, but more of who will prove their worth as a forum manager.

------

So, my question to those who oppose such change. Is it a matter of jealousy that it wasn't you chosen to edit the forum layout for 5 hours a night, so you had to finish it for the use of other NGoR members? Or do you truely not feel confident in the trust I give to others, the same as I have given to every application not declined?

<_< >_> Thanks. Zone, the new layout will take some getting used to. After that, and when I'm 100% done, you shall grow to like it. As of now I have a poll in democracy asking people's opinions. I did not trash the old forums, they're just hidden, I can have them back in 30 minutes if majority rules so.

Actually, I did away with some of the things that are never used, which we didn't need. I just never had time to get around to reorganizing the forums. It is better now than then. Everything takes getting use to, even the NGoR HQ links did as well, just I want to make it easier for those that are lost, rather than only providing to those who are 'use to' the chaotic layout. :P

Hey, Coil, I'll be back after work tonight, around like 1 AM. If you are on then, I'll talk to you more on MSN. It's about minr fixed, colors, and changes. Like there are some missing forums that I think we might want to consider keeping. But Unsure where they should go, still. As even I am still getting use to the new and improved style. ;)
