		<description><![CDATA[It's not technically not a surprise since many of you are aware of them which are the "Homepage" and the "Pure Client". The Client is doing amazing but we're taking time on it as we don't want to rush it and make the outcome look inadequate. The Homepage is doing great also and it's going to take a while(possibly a month since I want it to look gorgeous) and don't want it to look sloppy. The tournament is still pending and I'm not going to forget about that. <br />
<br />
<br />
Nick is considering re-doing the forum layout and starting fresh(excluding removing the post counts). We're working hard to bringing back Pure Community to what it use to be, and I see some of you on the boards daily and I appreciate you still sticking around with us. We will make sure these updates turn out fantastic, so I hope you're all ambitious as I am <img src='http://purecommunity-rs.com/public/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> .<br />

		<title>Tournaments coming soon</title>
		<link>http://purecommunity-rs.com/topic/25744-tournaments-coming-soon/</link>
		<description><![CDATA[This upcoming month or so, I'll be releasing a Tournament for the clans. The location is still being decided but I'm considering it at Clan Wars and I do apologize about it being that same common area for clans to fight in but its to prevent crashing. There will be different styles of hybriding, melee only, range only and such. Not just that, but I'm also planning on creating a Tournament for 5 vs 5, etc. to mix this variety around. The Tournaments will be both P2P and F2P. If you have any idea on the locations, or wish to help out I would be appreciated.<br />
<br />
The reward will contain a month of Runescape Membership - And for security it will be a pin.<br />
<br />
<br />
<em class='bbc'>This is still in discussion, plans still need to be created, so I will need your feedback on what you would like to occur, thanks!</em><br />

		<title>Revision of Clan Area Update and PC Flip Changes</title>
		<link>http://purecommunity-rs.com/topic/25720-revision-of-clan-area-update-and-pc-flip-changes/</link>
		<description><![CDATA[To get more clans involved and improve on the idea we raised the limit drastically to <strong class='bbc'>100</strong>, The Leaders in the channel have recently talked to us, and they wanted the Memberlist requirement raised, and we approved it as well. Instead of the Low and Medium clans participating in this Community, everyone will be able to participate with a raised Memberlist requirement to <strong class='bbc'>100</strong>. Clans such as EOP, IR and EOD have agreed and is in this.<br />
<br />
Our old topic can be found <a href='http://purecommunity-rs.com/topic/25623-clan-area-announcement/' class='bbc_url' title='External link' rel='nofollow'><strong class='bbc'><span style='color: orange'>here</strong></a></span> regarding Clan Area changes.<br />
<br />
<br />
--------<br />
<br />
<strong class='bbc'>Post Count change for Pure Community Flip and a board change</strong><br />
<br />
Due to a numerous amount of complaints due to our post count requirements being so high, I've decided to lower it to <strong class='bbc'>35</strong>. For the board changes, I'm sure some of you have seen, I've decided to create its own category for Pure Community Flip. It's more neat and organized and its mainly focused on Merchanting and Flipping. I know many people have interest in the Market, which is why I made this decision. Pure Community Flip members can make their own threads and show their goals and Community Members can reply to them.<br />
<br />
<em class='bbc'>*Note - We will monitor your post counts and will check the quality of your posts if you apply. If we see you spam on boards, I will not hesitate in temporary revoking your posting privileges for a day. Keep in mind if you post in Goals and Achievements with no effort such as "nice", "good job", "Congratulations!" and other stuff, your application will be <strong class='bbc'>auto declined</strong>. If you want your post count to count make sure you post helpful tips and such on how to get to their goal faster. Be sure to post a constructive post also which is 2-3 sentences. </em><br />

		<title>PC Flip - Reminder</title>
		<link>http://purecommunity-rs.com/topic/25669-pc-flip-reminder/</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Hello, <br />
I would like to remind you all that posting spam on our boards without constructive posting will <strong class='bbc'><span class='bbc_underline'>not</strong></span> get you in Pure Community Flipping. We(Pure Community Flip Staff) will and continue taking action on all people who flood through the boards as many members are seeming to complain about it also, and it takes the whole quality away from the boards. Let me also remind you that, if you post in Goals and Achievements without <strong class='bbc'>constructive</strong> posting you will <strong class='bbc'>not</strong> be accepted. We made a rule stating your posts will not count in Goals and Achievements if you make a application, but the exception will be made if you make a constructive post as of telling the person how to reach their goal, and giving them tips. "Grats", "cool", "i want that level", etc. will not count as a post, and will be a <strong class='bbc'>auto decline</strong> in your application. <br />
<br />
If I notice you on boards spamming, I will revoke your posting privileges for a day or so and will send you a personal message regarding why you got suspended from posting.<br />
<br />
<br />
Thanks guys,<br />

		<title>Clan Area Announcement</title>
		<link>http://purecommunity-rs.com/topic/25623-clan-area-announcement/</link>
		<description><![CDATA[<div class='bbc_center'>Clan Area Changes</div><br />
To improve the community and help new and all pure clans all around Runescape we have revolutionized our clan area! The clan area will now only be dedicated to Pure Community Approved Clans.<br />
<br />
<span style='font-size: 26px;'><strong class='bbc'>FAQ</strong></span><br />
<br />
<ul class='bbc'><li>What is a Pure Community Approved Clan?<br /></li><li>How do I get my clan to become a Pure Community Approved Clan?<br /></li><li>Why did you set these specific rules?<br /></li><li>How come I can not reply in the clan searching forum?<br /></li><li>How do I become a Certified Member?<br /></li><li>Who gets the clan leader rank on these forums?</li></ul><br />
<br />
<strong class='bbc'><span style='color: #FF8C00'>What is a Pure Community Approved Clan?</span></strong><br />
A Pure Community Approved Clan is a clan that follows certain rules for the well being of the pure world.<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong class='bbc'><span style='color: #FF8C00'>How do I get my clan to become a Pure Community Approved Clan?</span></strong><br />
<br />
First thing is first, your clan has to agree to follow certain rules.<br />
These rules are:<br />
- To always have <strong class='bbc'>Re-directing link</strong> back to the community's homepage. <br />
- Agree to maintain your clan's memberlist under 100 members.<br />
- Follow all <a href='http://purecommunity-rs.com/index.php?app=forums&module=extras&section=boardrules' class='bbc_url' title='External link' rel='nofollow'><strong class='bbc'><span style='color: orange'>Board Rules</a></strong></span>.<br />
 <br />
There are no exceptions. If a clan break any of these agreements they risk losing their approved status.<br />
<br />
<strong class='bbc'><span style='color: #FF8C00'>Why did you set these specific rules?</span></strong><br />
We set these rules to try and create more competition in the clan world.  Instead of having top clans taking in all the new recruits, middle clans will have an opportunity to grow their memberlist just as big as top clans resulting in closer competition.<br />
<br />
It is important to understand that clans are not at a disadvantage for having this member limit because all clans here will have the same limit.  Other clans in this community are clans just like yours which will result in closer competition.<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong class='bbc'><span style='color: #FF8C00'>How come I can not reply in clan searching forum?</span></strong><br />
That is because in order to recruit in the clan searching forum you have to become a certified member.<br />
<br />
<strong class='bbc'><span style='color: #FF8C00'>How do I become a Certified Member?</span></strong><br />
<br />
You must first be in a<a href='http://purecommunity-rs.com/topic/16346-pure-community-approved-clan-directory/' class='bbc_url' title='External link' rel='nofollow'><strong class='bbc'><span style='color: #FF8C00'>Pure Community Approved Clan</a></strong></span> <br />
You will then need to reply to <a href='http://purecommunity-rs.com/topic/25622-apply-to-be-a-certified-member/' class='bbc_url' title='External link' rel='nofollow'><strong class='bbc'><span style='color: orange'>This</strong></span></a> thread.<br />
<br />
<strong class='bbc'><span style='color: #FF8C00'>Who gets the clan leader rank in these forums?</span></strong><br />
<br />
The clan leader rank in these forums is only given to a leader of a Pure Community Approved Clan.<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong class='bbc'><span style='color: orange'>Changes in Clan Searching:</strong></span><br />
<br />
Anyone can still search for a clan, but the people who reply can only be of Pure Community Approved Clans located in the <a href='http://purecommunity-rs.com/topic/16346-clan-directory/' class='bbc_url' title='External link' rel='nofollow'><strong class='bbc'><span style='color: orange'>Clan Directory</a></strong></span>. The Members who want to reply to help post recruitment topics for others, you must be in Pure Community Approved Clans, and a Administrator will give you access to let you reply to Clan Searching.<br />
<br />
<strong class='bbc'><span style='color: orange'>Clan Offering</strong></span><br />
<br />
In order for clans to offer there clans on Pure Community forums they must do this : <a href='http://purecommunity-rs.com/topic/16348-want-to-offer-your-clan-to-the-public/' class='bbc_url' title='External link' rel='nofollow'>http://purecommunity-rs.com/topic/16348-want-to-offer-your-clan-to-the-public/</a><br />
<br />
<strong class='bbc'><span style='color: orange'>Changes to Clan Wars/ Run-Ins</strong></span><br />
<br />
Changes are you must be a Pure Community Approved Clan or a Certified Member to post an aftermath topic.<br />
<br />
<br />

		<title>Starting off a New Year!</title>
		<link>http://purecommunity-rs.com/topic/25464-starting-off-a-new-year/</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Happy New Years all and welcome to 2010. To start off new things, Nick and I implemented a new board for Pure Community. The board is called <strong class='bbc'><span style='color: orange'>Member Cabinet</strong></span> and it is only visible to people who want to see it by requesting in a personal message to me or Nick and we will sort your masks out. <br />
<br />
<strong class='bbc'><span style='color: #FF8C00'>What is the purpose of this forum?</span></strong><br />
<br />
We implemented this forum because we want your opinions and views about the boards and Nick, Ray and I will listen to your thoughts and we will of course discuss them with you. We don't want you to hesitate at all with posting. Post about everything you have in mind.<br />
<br />
------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />
<br />
We thought this would be a great way to help change these boards around. We'll be only letting the members who want to help us out view the forums. <br />
<br />
<strong class='bbc'>In other news...</strong><br />
<br />
We have changed many forums including their descriptions. We added a <a href='http://purecommunity-rs.com/forum/214-archived-announcements/' class='bbc_url' title='External link' rel='nofollow'><strong class='bbc'><span style='color: orange'>Archieved Announcements</strong></span></a> for you to view our old topics. We deleted a couple of forums also which are:<br />
<br />
<ul class='bbc'><li>Achievement of the Month<br /></li><li>Meet The Staff<br /></li><li>Sports & Entertainment<br /></li><li>SOTM(Signature of The Month)<br /></li><li>Mini-Wars</li></ul><br />
<br />
Forum Names and Descriptions that got changed:<br />
<br />
<ul class='bbc'><li>Guides - Pure Guides & Tips<br /></li><li>Pictures - Screenshots & Medias <br /></li><li>Off Topic - Outside Life<br /></li><li>Check In and Out Desk - + Check In & Out Desk</li></ul><br />
<br />
<br />
<strong class='bbc'><span style='color: #FF8C00'>Staff Ranks Available</span></strong><br />
<br />
We have Global Moderator, Elite and Honoured Member ranks available as we have demoted majority of the people. This means you have a chance of being promoted, but this isn't a easy shot. It means you need to be posting daily, showing dedication and being involved in the Community. We are not promoting immature people, but people who put in effort into the Community and show maturity. Follow the <a href='http://purecommunity-rs.com/index.php?app=forums&module=extras&section=boardrules' class='bbc_url' title='External link' rel='nofollow'><strong class='bbc'><span style='color: orange'>TOS</strong></span></a> also.<br />
