what i'm against the toggling is then it will be the same as before the update.... Elders that has been toggled mass kick clan members..... Thus rendering the update useless.....
maybe a shorter cooldown will do the job, but as to toggling them, that would just defeats the purpose of cooldown on the first place..... I'm currently an elder as well... And i don't see any problem so far....

The thing is, smart players wouldn't kick both by "mistake." If they would, they shouldn't be designated as Elder in the first place. The problem remains that cooldowns don't allow Elders the necessary force behind them to protect the clan against certain individuals who seek to destroy the clan. A leader should have more options to give kicking power to certain individuals and the LEADER HIM/HERSELF should decide if a cooldown is even necessary for their clan. Many leaders only promote people they know in real life, so what purpose does an overreaching cooldown serve for them? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. What needs to be implemented is a cooldown toggle switch for each indolividual elder. That way, Elders who already have WARRANTED trust from the leader CAN enforce the rules without a cooldown hindrance, and NEW Elders can be given a cooldown time for as long as the leader determines. It is completely ridiculous that an Elder who has been one for months should have a cooldown same as a newly promoted Elder. This also supports an argument for MORE RANKS. SC has yet to recognize and implement this, but its necessary for the smooth functioning of a clan. I appreciate the goal of a cooldown and what it's intended purpose is, but this is a better way to handle those sporadic elder kickings that people seem to fear. Don't take away power from trusted Elders to solve your problems, figure out how to dispurse it in a more effective, strategic way.

I agree with the original post.

The elder kick cooldown is an obvious over-reaction to pranksters with elder status kicking out the members of a clan.

The problem this is creating is, players who are legitimately kicked out can return repeatedly. Adding to this complexity is, with the recent update, every member can now invite other players. And invites override a closed clan or a clan with a high cup requirement.

Let inexperienced leaders learn the hard way. Giving elder status hastily will implode a clan.

That has been one of my main issues with the cooldown is that the recent update allowed so many invited players into the clan who don't meet requirements. I couldn't kick them all even though it would have been legitimate and was necessary. SC needs to get on this.

It's a feature that never should have been implemented. It basically punishes all of the elders in the game for the transgressions of a relative minority of clan kickers.

Now that we have this silly option, SC needs to make it clan specific allowing clan leaders to set the length of the cool down. I imagine a lot of clans would prefer it set to "0".

I believe that the leaders should give certain cooldowns. Or maybe this elder doesn't get cooldown and that one does. It all depends on trustworthiness. If it's an real life friend you can turn off cooldown for them. You might even be able to disable kicking or promoting, but accepting should always be something elders have.
For kicking though maybe they could submit an appeal to have a certain player kicked out and the leaders receives the message and chooses whether the elder's explanation of why a particular clan member should be kicked is reasonable.

Since this update i cannot go into the APp clash of clans update please 🙏

That said, any "kick cooldown" imposed on our elders makes it very difficult to effectively enforce our clan's rules. Also, since many of our elders have lives, there are times when only one elder is available to weed out the hoppers.

I can appreciate that a cooldown helps to prevent elders from abusing their priviledges but, in my opinion, the problems this cooldown causes far outweigh any potential benefits.

One option I've heard that I liked was being able to have each leader set their clan's cooldown period, maybe ranging 0-30.

Personally I would go with probably 5-10 minutes in my clan. Sounds like others would go lower and others yet higher. But at least we have a choice then

I agree with the OP. I had a thread about this aswell. The elder rank shudn't be given by donating 600 a week. Is shud be given by proving loyalty over a period of time. Inculding donating a requirered minimum to stay in the clan. Then elders shud have the job Of managing ppl's donates / running the clan in any other ways depening on how the clan works. I have run into problems where this feaure get's annoying.
But there are ways to work around, especially when more elders / the leader is on. To me this feature seems like throwing the baby out with the bath water. Yes the elder rage problem is significant. Even trusted elders who have been in the clan for months (yes this has happened to our clan once thankfully only a feeder which was only just set up at the time). If people promote hoppers then it's their fault. But yes they'res little u can do about trusted elders (especially if a sister /bro / son / daughter etc gets on the account and kicks ppl instead). However isn't there another solution to the problems instead of the silly cooldown. (What about simply a 5 min cooldown rather than half an hour). Yes elders could still do damage but it's better than nothing. Seems like
A compromise to me. Another thing is the let the leader choose the cooldown idea. Maybe reinvite features for kicked members. It's like the fix to a problem creates another

Supercell the new where elder can only kick one member thing isn't a good idea .Yes this does get rid of people kicking a clan but well since no clan can be destroyed then eventually there might be to many clans and second what if your a real elder like me and there is two people being a pain(has happened to me) I could only kick one and the other just kept on bugging me even more now that the other was gone. I believe one is too small and 30min is too long I'm trying not to complain but I'm just saying. Also I have noticed many people are saying that all the new stuff is going to higher levels so can the next update be for like lvl 6 town halL and below (which I'm not) so they feel included in updates more than just 600 more gold and elixer when u win I feel bad for them so please consider .

Unfortunatly i disagree, if this had been implemented at an earlier stage then i might have been able to save 29 memebers of my clan, on three seperate occasions. With this new feature i can have clan mates notify me so i can kick the meneace, or they have time to promote everyone so no more can be kicked. That's all
