Still doesn't change the fact that huge clans such as Kandarin and even the Kinshra with that giant ass mega-glider promoted the use of gliders at a certain point and several others still do. If I were to use an air force during an RP War, let's say the Siege of Varrock, I wouldn't bring the entire frigging 50-62 fleet. No. I do think the total amount of gliders I brought in that RP was four. Sure, we blew up the front of the castle, and also may note a few more instances, such as Yanille, who was in joint operation with the Cruor gliders. As well as their acknowledgment during Eden's attack on Zenthosian Camelot back in February last year. I only used one glider then, and it only ended up killing one person, and she took that character's death to the face and accepted it. Even though the use of a glider was still there.

You may bring up good points on the over-powering uses of gliders or even the fact that obtaining them would be extremely hard for one person, it still isn't going to change how the past worked and how clans may function today. A majority of clans actually don't strictly abide lore to it's extent. If a majority of clans did, we wouldn't have POK's and POC's such as Misthalin, Kandarin, Southern Asgarnia, Al Kharid, or clans in Morytania(Who do somewhat abide by lore with that they're characters are only regents for Lord Drakan, but my point still there). As well that Kandarin I.Cly wouldn't own lands such as Port Khazard or even the entire battlefield if we even went to the extent of just following a little bit of lore, as this was brought up in the history of whatever page(Probably Kingdom of Kandarin's, actually). If we're ignoring the NPC's that rule said lands such as King Roald, the Duke of Lumbridge, the King of Ardougne, whoever is in place of the Emir of Al Kharid, and thta lord baron NPC guy who runs the Kinshra, then why would be stop to use gliders if we're going to ignore the fact other NPC's rule cities that us role-players do? Wouldn't that be a bigger deal?
