Who are some members you felt like had the most potential in VNG, TR, and now Tempest and simply haven't gotten a shot? 2. What are some of your music interests, and what are some things you do outside of RS? 3. Do you play any games other than RS? 4. Tell me something you never have about me.

Can you elaborate more on the cliques that formed that further the divide among members? I regret not closing it sooner and allowing it to get to the point that it did. I think after our victory over SV in the 4 hour war it should have ideally been our last fight. If I could go back to the exact day of our closure, I would have removed Mike and I from the picture, and pushed @Pur3 Str0ng2 and Vono to assemble a new staff team and create a new era. It probably would have ended up like Terminus is currently. Although I am not sure how much Vono cared for the clan at this point. He may have wanted to rebrand, which would have been fine. I would say in the end it worked out, though. Both Vanguard and Terminus seem happy with their clan and friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Vanguard opened up again as a PvP clan under new leadership. How would you react to it? Is it true that you're actually a robot IRL that was created by Elon Musk to study behaviors of Runescape players? The BBU should do it, aye? Honestly I would be both confused and flattered. You're giving @Bles ideas. Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it true CT tried to plant VNG spies? Rev by far. CT always had an agenda to try and recruit from us. Recruiting from small clans was like their go to lol - CT also looked down on us like we were naïve noobs. Yes they gave one of our vennies 20m to leak locs. We knew, it was obvious. We muted the guy from hearing us talk and pked freely. They wandered around for hours trying to find us and ended up walking right into Rev. I also knew what they were doing so we rarely ever got hit by them when they decided to crash us. They used to make fun of Christy for thinking they had a VnG spy. 😉 Didn't do anything malicious with it. Just avoided them if they were out with 40 to our 25. Those CT 40 pulls didn't last long, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tika191 1,099 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 These Vanguard stories seem fascinating, I missed most of that era so I have no idea what happened. What was Vanguards biggest f2p fight ever? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@The End 2,063 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Did this guy who spied on VR (and on VNG to get in VR) -- come fully clean to you after the incident and apologize? He seems very positive towards Vanguard throughout the video: 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@True 2k8 3,201 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Why the name Vanguard? What was your preferred name for Tempest? How much did your relationship with Des Troyer lead you to TR? Even if he wasn't active anymore etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam_ 1,028 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Not sure if you were in TR at the time but I seem to remember you guys closing after fighting rot in F2p, I remember mainly because after the fight they all (still in f2p gear) found mog time streaming callisto and went and killed him and the clip got pretty popular. I think TR announced their closing that day or shortly thereafter (?) but obviously TR reopened and was around until a few months ago. Why did you decide to close and why did you decide to reopen? Why did Ethan leave TR for DF (or was he allowed to multiclan?) What are your disagreements with how VnG is currently run? Have you considered, even briefly, returning to VnG since they're a community clan now? Are you surprised at where any of your ex TR/VnG members ended up clanning wise? What did the conversation(s) look like between you/David/True when you guys were trying to agree to open the clan, and trying to plan things out? What sponsorship did TR have which you didn't approve of? (The one you said you would have nuked) Why didn't you like it? Thoughts on the following clans ? (As they are now, or how they ended) SV RoT Jaja CT DK It sounds like you didn't have a great opinion of FSK or many of their community members during your time in VnG due to what happened when they mass joined. Has your opinion changed since then? When are you and Caro going to get married already? Who are some members from VnG/TR you wish were in / around Tempest? Who are some that you've lost contact with and wish you could talk to again? Thoughts on clients when it comes to warring? What do you think of the current state of the clan world?
