This just isn't us...

The goal of Surreal has never been to have the most members. It has not been the goal of Surreal to be an elitist clan, and most certainly has not been given the goal of restricting people from joining the community.

Anyone is welcome to join the forums and take part in RuneScape and Off topic areas of the forums. Infact the only real parts that a member who is rankless (or clan buddy for that sake) cannot see are the clan specific ones (PYP, Skillweeks, Clan discussion, etc). A rank does not define you in Surreal. Some of our oldest members and friends either hold a Clan buddy rank, or are rankless. But do we treat them differently? No. In fact I'd say members do not outrank those who actively participate around the forums.

That being said, I like others do not see a point in this. A suggestion came through awhile ago with the thought of doing something very similar to this, and so it was put out on a poll for our thoughts and opinions. The response from the clan was that it was unneeded and would essentially be a waste of our time since anyone can come and "hang out" with Surreal.

A rank does not define you at Surreal. You define you.
