Hey there, so I just want to start off by saying this is an idea formed by the collaboration of some of my #TNG Clanmates, as well as some of the community members who have posted below.

 

The idea is something seen in a few other servers, which is in-game Clan Tags. Maximum of 3 letters (to prevent spam), this would help people figure out what clan everyone is from. This is especially helpful in the Wilderness as bigger clans have trouble remembering all their new recruits. 

Now to prevent masses of people creating their own Clans just to have a cool little Tag beside their name, players would have to register their Clan Name in-game by talking to an NPC and paying a fee of perhaps 5-10m; #Moneysink. This price is only temporary and I would like to know what price you guys think it should be. Now in order for new recruits to have your Clan Tag in their name, as the Clan Owner, you can either invite a player into your clan and have them accept, or a player may apply to join your clan and you the Clan Owner can choose to accept or deny. This can all be done at an NPC as well, where you can also choose to set your Clan as "Invite-Only", to prevent dozens of unwanted spam applications.

 

 

TL;DR: 

• Clan Tag appears beside the Player's username
• Clan Tag is a maximum of 3 letters.
• As the Clan Owner, to create your Clan Tag you must talk to an NPC and pay a fee of perhaps 50-100m (It is this high to make Clan Tags more respected as it's a 3-letter tag added to all Clan Member's usernames) #Moneysink
• A Playtime requirement of 1-2 days is needed to create a Clan Tag  - Credits to  Iron Flee
• Certain ranks can invite players to officially join the Clan with a Clan Tag
• Players can apply to join the clan and obtain the Clan Tag.
• Clan Owners can choose to set the Clan as "Invite Only"
• Option to toggle on/off Clan Tags from being visible to you   - Credits to Error

 

Pros:

• Helps Clans identify their clanmates in the Wilderness
• Can be deemed an official way of joining a Clan
• #Moneysink when creating the Clan Tag

Cons:

• Clan Tags may look tacky to some (however being able to toggle them being visible to you will counter this)

Thanks for reading, and please let me know what you think and if you have any further ideas to build on top of this!

Support, would be a good identifier in the wild.

I suggested this a month ago, didn't really gain too much traction.

 

Here's the example I used in my thread

The more I've thought about it, it's probably not worth the dev time + it's not in osrs

[Heroic]

I don't see anything wrong with this, it's even very helpful! But does the Clan Leader buy it once and then they can do it forever for that clan? Because in that case I think 5m might be a little low, near 10m might be better. :)

Thanks for making this very well-written post!

Ahh, thank you for informing me. Hopefully maybe this time around it'll gain more traction, or at the least more input from the community.

Also I just wanna note that I did try searching to see if someone else already suggested this but I didn't really scroll that far l0l.

Thanks man! I'm thinking It's maybe 5-10m for the first Clan Tag. Then if the Clan Leader wants to change the Clan Tag, the price is increased to maybe 25m? Let me know what you think. Either one-time fee of 10m+ for unlimited Clan Tag changes, or just 5-10m for the creation, then 25m or so to change. Price can possibly double after every change?

Support, seen this in another RSPS' aswell.

[Macauley]

Yes please, I can create my own clan.

[DIK] Macauley would look good.

If this was to be added, there would have to be a toggle option to toggle on/off clan tags as I can see some players complaining about it being annoying.

That's a great idea, adding it to the post and crediting you.

Fuck yes, Im not in a clan but this is a great idea (sadly syntax's didn't get much attention). lets get everyone on board with this.

I feel like if this happens it should be more pricey.

 

5-10m is pretty simple for most people, there should also be a certain amount of time played before being able to create a clan. Now, anyone can join it of course, just the person who is to create the clan must have a certain amount of time played.

Thank you for the feedback! I agree, 5-10m is nothing now that I think about it lmao. Also considering it'll be adding a special 3-letter Clan Tag beside Players names, it should definitely be higher to make sure these Clan Tags are official. Depending on how many people are in said Clan, this would mean hundreds of people would suddenly have special 3-letter tags beside their names. I'm thinking maybe perhaps 50-100m would be high enough. This would put more sentimental value onto these Clan Tags and people will definitely want to choose more wisely. I also agree with the playtime requirement, I think it's a good idea. I'll add to the post and credit you

[Hoppin]

definitely support for this 

[Snurf]

Fully supporting this. would be a great addition, and if people dislike it then it should come with a toggle so that it doesn't annoy anyone who's against this.

[Heavy Weight]

Would be nice. 100% Support
