Why within the first 5 seconds did I know this was made by WildyGuard?
Anyways, yes, they make some valid points, and although they make it seem like PK clans were full of honor and rank-and-file before the free trade change, they were regularly rife with jealousy, immaturity, and constantly taking advantage of each other by crashing scheduled wars and the like. While I can't say I particularly agree with everything, PKers definitely gave the game a different dynamic that affected all players back in their heyday. Thousands played the game just to PK with their clans. Now few do. While it could be argued that PKers fueled the economy based on their needs, you also have to remember that this game met a tipping point in whether it was going to favor skillers or PKers.
Whether their return would improve the game, I can't be sure. When you look at it, PKers prey on those who cannot defend themselves and that in itself is a very immoral way to play, though that's why it's a game. We play games to do things and be things we aren't or can't do. If I had to pick whether to have the money hoarders or PKers, I would definitely pick the PKers.
All in all, this is a very well made video by His Lordship and his cohorts. Wilderness Guardians have always been at the forefront of dictating the voice of clans' desires, and have the people with the passion to express it. While I could write forever on them as a clan, His Lordship, and their impact on RS itself. I have extensive knowledge in this area and have lived through it, so I have some interesting views. Let's just say, Wildy Guard has some motivation for the return of PKers, because they participate (or at least once did) in ARPK, which is Anti-Random Player Killing, meaning they kill PKers and save the skillers. This explains their name - The Wilderness Guardians.
However, RSB&B doesn't appear to favor clans in general (something I'd wish to change). If anyone wants to know more or ask questions, shoot me a PM. Perhaps I'll force Shane and Trekkie to talk about this by submitting a question on it.
