EDIT: Since the Lounge has now pretty much completely cleared out, and everyone seems to have successfully moved to the new clan chat, Jaron has officially closed RV Lounge's friends chat. Again, I have to give a big THANK YOU to Jaron for helping to manage Rv Lounge! You really are the best.

Hey guys!

As many of you know, Jagex released an entirely new Clan system today. This accompanied the renaming of the old clan chat system to "Friends Chat", as well as released a secondary chat system that is now the new Clan Chat system.

While we may not be a clan, there are many features in this new Clan Chat system that we can take advantage of. For starters, RV Lounge can only be managed by a single person. We've always had to rely on Jaron for any bans and unbannings we've had to make, which has obviously caused us more than a few issues, despite how amazing Jaron has been with the entire thing since turning the management of the chat over to me. This new Clan system allows the Clan Chat Moderators and myself to manage the ban list, which is something we've needed for a while.

Likewise, having (most) all of the villagers united under this new clan system will allow for an easier time with in-game RVET events and such. It will also allow users to use Friend Chat channels for lootshare and whatever else while still being able to chat with RuneVillagers! And the best part is that anyone can enter our Clan Chat even if they're not in the clan, or already belong to another clan. There will be no limitations due this switch, only perks! It will be much more convenient for everyone.

A week from now I will be asking Jaron to officially disable RV Lounge's friend chat, and we will officially use the clan chat "Runevillage" from now on. As I said before, you don't need to be a member of the clan to enter the chat, so just hop on in like you would with RV Lounge!

It's also worth note that if you would like to be a member of the clan, all Clan Chat Moderators have the ability to recruit. Becoming a member will give you access to a Clan Cape to show off your RuneVillage pride. I'll also be taking suggestions for what our cape should look like.

• Villagers who wish to be an official member of the chat will have the "Recruit" rank
• All Clan Chat Moderators will have the "Admin" Rank
• All Administrators will have the "Co Owner" Rank
• I will have the "Owner" Rank

Aside from the new chat name and the new ranks, everything (rules + strike/step system) will remain the same.

Let's thank Jaron for all his hard work and finally give him a break!

Clan Chat: Runevillage
//Before your message in Clan Chat
///Before your message in Guest Clan Chat

Thanks for gettin' us all caught up to speed so quickly!

I really like this new system they've put in place. It makes a lot more sense than the old one.

For those you who don't currently play or who have yet to see the clan capes, this is what our cape currently looks like.







In no way is this style permanent, it's just what was chosen by the group of people in the clan chat at the time.

Personally I don't like how Jagex designed the collar at all, but hey, whatcha gonna do?

Need better colours. Should be baige (sp).

The collar is epic failure!

Other then that I was there for the whole 'debate' on the color scheme.

So far I like this current design.

Sweet! RV clan! Dunno how active you have to be (I'm never on on weekdays), but if I'm eligible, sign me up!

For the record guys, this isn't actually a clan, we've just moved our in-game chat over to the new Clan Chat system. There's no worries about needing to join or being active or anything like that - It's exactly how RV Lounge has always worked, just under a new chat channel.

If you're not a "member" of the clan, you can enter through the Guest Clan Chat and speak freely. If you'd like to be added into the clan (the difference being that you only have to use //message rather than ///message, as well as having access to the clan cape), just contact one of the Clan Chat Moderators while you're in-game and we'll get you added in.
