=History=

Creation
RogueSKillers was created in 2008 when the founders of the clan Spiritlink and Zuggalo had looked around for a clan that fit their ideals, but could not find one that was a great fit. Created to provide a relaxed, mature, friendly atmosphere for players to socialize in; RogueSKillers brought in a crowd of players who had a hard time finding a home just like our founders and the clan took off and prospered.

Leadership Changes
Leading a clan comes with a lot of responsibilities and even at times stress. In July of 2010 the founders of RSK, under a large amount of stress from issues related to real life emergencies, decided to step down as the leaders of the clan. The reins of the clan were handed over to two elders Solidflip and Shanestieber who lead the clan until Shanestieber had to leave Runescape for a while due to matters in life.

RSK Today
RogueSKillers is now lead by Solidflip and Torincs and has continued to grow. Expanding to include a clan teamspeak channel, clan website, and clan forums RSK is a stable clan with a stable and growing member base. RSK is still a no requirements clan that contains all the ideals set forth by the founders when it began. By staying true to its roots RSK has continued to see growth while maintaining the tight-knit feeling of a small clan.

I have met a lot of people I truly consider as my friends." - Princess Nu1   " I have been in RSK for over 3 years and it has been a great place to find new friends and to socialize. These people aren't just my clanmates many of them are my close friends who i can text or call when im feeling down or on top of the world. I could never imagine leaving this tight-knit community" - Solidflip   "I havent been in the clan for long but have  been made welcome and lots of people offered and helped with many things." - Matts the 1    "This clan is awesome, no drama policy, TeamSpeak, webpage, twitter, forum, and now wiki page. I have been a RogueSKiller for IDK over 3 years I think and is getting better as time goes on. There are more events within the clan and everyone supports the 99 parties within and for personal friends of the clan. We just had our 1 year anniversary of merging our clan with another that started out in just such a friendship. The result is we now have a strong core of members that are willing to encourage and help everyone progress in their RuneScape activities. I couldn't imagine being in any other clan, I will be a RoguSkiller for a long time." - Oresayer
