This is something I was telling Coil101, the new Forum Leader, about what the NGoR stands for, as far as beliefs and purpose. So, feel free to say if you agree or disagree with the following PM'd message. Also, let me know if you even knew the whole situation behind the 'community' idea (which was far from what we started out as).

OMG. Your leaking secret PM-Information. >.> Well, I am rather new. It's just a habit. Which I AM trying to break. If I do accidently call it clan, simpily reply or PM with me with this message:
And I will then slam my head into a wall and edit my post. |

Heh, alrighty then. It's okay, as you are aware, by how quickly Raven replied to you wording, that it isn't the first time, and it's far from the last. Everyone who joins considers it a 'clan'. We will probably get more of it as time progresses, as well, because I had to find a way around posting it in the RSC forums. he only thing they allow are 'clans', and they also state 'all tip site posts will be deleted'. So, what's a hard-working community going to do? Conform to whatever guidelines are needed to gain the notice of the players we are built upon.

clan - group of families with common ancestor; group with common interest. community - group of people living in the same locality or having the same ... interests ... We don't want anyone thinking we are all related. |

Raven: You are the only one to correct Coil so quickly. I know it was me who first told you, and stressed it as I tend to do. Thanks for helping me keep the wording out there. As I see it:

It's alright, though. I got into a total disagreeance with a member of one of the current 'top' RS clans about this, before I found out. He claimed his clan was the better, because they won more battles over other clans. This is the constant determinant behind any 'clan' you speak with. And, even though I am proud to keep the same name, clan MF-D; it was my way of making a 'clan', which would not conform to the laws of most 'clans'. But, in the world of Diablo II (much like on Halo 2), any group is a 'clan', reguardless if you deny the title or not.

I think something from the past is still not changed. Maybe somewhere in one of the very first redirect links it mentions "clan". Or else the clan MF-D is confusing everyone.. since it does own the NGoR. But neither is a "clan" function or purpose.We only adapted to the newfound word of "community" after expansion into Runescape. And forever more, we shall use the word we have always been seeking, but just never knew was a proer term used for a gaming group. |
