Trip the Light Clantastic (17-May-2010)

The RuneScape community is a vast and varied place, full of different people who band together to form all sorts of groups and organisations. Perhaps one of the most long-standing groupings in RuneScape is the domain of the clan - a bunch of players who join in a common cause and who swear a pledge of loyalty to their fellow clan members.

But what do you think of clans? How do you participate in them, if at all? What do you like about them? Do they interest you? If not, why not? By letting us know what you think, we can get to know the needs and preferences of both our clan and non-clan players alike, and then cater to them more effectively. So dive in and share your thoughts!
