Create a Group

Overview​

Groups help organize players from the same clan or friends chat and allows them to compete and contribute in various group activities. This guide shows how to create a group on Wise Old Man.

Prerequisites​

  • Recommended: Having an in-game clan with the same name as the group you are creating on the website will help players find your group.
  • Recommended: Verify all player profiles exist (opted into tracking) so players can view their stats. See: /guides/how-to-start-tracking

Steps​

  1. Navigate to the create page

    1. Go to Groups and select + Create new, or open https://wiseoldman.net/groups/create

  2. Enter information

    1. Name: Your group’s display name, preferably matching an in-game clan or friends chat.
    2. Clan chat: Your in‑game clan chat name.
    3. Homeworld: Your primary Old School RuneScape world (number).
    4. Description: A short summary of your group.
    5. Click Next.

  3. Choose how to add members

    If you plan on using our sync feature through the RuneLite plugin, you should select the Add players manually option, skip adding players, and click the Next button - confirming an empty group. Afterwards you can sync in-game.

    1. Import from file: Paste a list of usernames and verify you select the proper separation type (new line, comma, semicolon)
    2. Add players manually: Use the search to add players one by one.

  4. Review and set member roles

    1. For each member, pick a role (e.g., Member, Leader) from the Role dropdown.
    2. Remove entries if needed.
    3. Click Next to create the group.
      1. If you have no members yet, you’ll be asked to confirm creating an empty group.

  5. Save your verification code

    1. After creation, a verification code is shown. Save this code securely for future verification and management.
    2. You’ll then be redirected to your new group page.

Tips​

  • You can edit group details later from your group page (for example, to update description or add socials).
  • You can add or remove members and change roles at any time from the group management screens.
  • You can sync your group from in-game if you install the Wise Old Man RuneLite plugin.

Troubleshooting​

  • If an error appears when creating the group, read the message and correct the input (for example, invalid usernames) and try again.
