1.Don't pick apart my statement.
I didn't. Now I am though.
2.The clans you mentioned are no longer even looked at.
Right. That's why they clearly are, mainly because Nuthug and Samopal still play. They're still legends in their own right, and they're still around. Both the clans and the players, btw.
3.Who knows if the players became friends.
If I remember correctly, I recall something that nuthug said about RAWR being more like a family, which is what I based my original statement on. I believe it may have been from one of Hax's interviews, but don't quote me on that. also, I'd say that's exactly what happened in our small group here.
4.I do agree that the skype chat is easier, more convenient, and overall it is better, but that does not mean we have to neglect the forum.
I quote myself from 3 days ago, right before you posted:
"I think the problem, if it can be called a problem, is that we neglect the forums in favor of our Skype chats, as communication is rendered easier by near-instantaneous response times. That being said, we do have members who are not present in our Skype chats, so keeping at least a small presence here should be a priority from henceforth." Now this allows me to tackle the last part.
5.Another suggestion I had was reviving the clan. This might be a good idea. What is the point in being a clan if people are inactive.
We are all mostly still here. What's there to revive? We have members, most of us are quite active on skype. Several of us (xjuicy, myself, Cheese, and hepimen once he fixes his whatever happened) are quite active ingame, and several other members have expressed wishes to become active again ingame. There is nothing to be revived, as we have not died yet. Also, the point of a clan is to belong to a group of people. Inactive or not, which I'd hardly think describes our constant use of skype, we are still a group of people, and in there lies the point of a clan.
Second rant, over.
