New Feature: Taking Over Dead Clans

I'd like to see a way for a clan to absorb a dead clan, for the purposes of helping the absorbing clan grow.

Scenario: There is a clan whose leader and co-leaders have been inactive for 30 days. These players simply have not logged into the game for that long. Meanwhile, their clan still has some members who are actively playing. These members could leave the clan if they wanted, but for various reasons of their own, opted to remain.

Another clan, with less than 10 members, is having trouble to gaining enough members to start a clan war. If they had the ability to absorb a dead clan, they could "rescue" the few active members of that clan, and finally gain enough members to launch a clan war.

Ideally, a player could start his/her own clan, and then go about absorbing several other dead clans until they gained enough members to launch a war.

Benefits

• This makes it easier to build a new clan
• This reduces the number of dead clans
• This increases the number of clan war searches
• This reduces the time it takes to find a clan war match
• Having more clan wars increases the purchase of gems

Operation

When viewing a clan's details, add a button that says, "Absorb", located next to the "Join" button.

The Absorb button will be green if the clan is eligible to be absorbed. Or, grey if it is not.

A clan is eligible to be absorbed if...

• the leader and co-leaders have not logged into the game for 30 days or more.
• the merging of both clans will result in a total membership of 50 or less.

Once absorbed...

• All members of the absorbed clan lose their status and become "member".
• Absorbed members can now be kicked from the clan.
• The absorbed clan loses its clan XP points (they do not transfer to the merged clan)

If my clan of close friends and family decided to take a break to take care of life business and we came backe to find a bunch of 12 yr old running our clan and booted half of us out id be ♥♥♥♥♥♥. And all our hard work to get clan level 9 and 120+ war wins were erased. Smh no way i dont even want to imagine this.

There should be an ability to like, make a meaning, for example, if a leader is going inactive or the clan is going inactive and will come back in 31 days, they should be able to inform SC about the holiday and make their clan in-absorbable

Or if the chat is offline for more than 30days the clan ends. Possible as hoppers still join and leave but the really dead clans would dissipate.

It's sad that this has to be mentioned in order for supercell to even consider this idea :(

Maybe the few active players in the dead clan can choose if they wanna be absorbed or not...?

How about....the players who aren't currently active can come back any time they wish and the active players can leave to join a different clan if they dont like the direction their current clan is heading? This sounds like a silly idea for a purpose that doesnt seem.very important to the game mechanics.

It's IS important to the game mechanics, because as it stands now, it's become increasingly difficult for someone to start successful new clan. No one wants to join a clan with only 1 or 2 members. This idea makes it possible to build a 10+ member clan by absorbing the few active players in dead clans.

Not definitively true, it can be argued clan wars decreases gem sales.

OP, after 180 days, maybe, and then only if the leader has not set the clan to be 'unabsorbable'.

This won't be implemented though.

Can someone tell me how to add that absorb button?
