I'd like to present an idea that may or may not have been announced before; I'd like to add in a Clan Chat feature in which we could have a different chat with another clan! With this feature we are able to communicate with another clan (if they do so choose) without having to leave our current clan! This can be very helpful for feeder clans and/or friendly clans in which communication will become more accessible to all players.
I wouldn't support it. Could be easily abused. Would include Supercell having to modify the chat system. Seeming how they came out with friends and no way to even chat with those friends in game I seriously doubt they'll support. If your clan/people are worth their salt, communicate via discord or skype.
No need for modifications to the current one, they'll simply add another function in which you can talk to other clans through yours. For the abuse part, there will be countermeasures to protect against that. This is also much more convenient considering not everyone wants to communicate with skype or any other source.
Adding another function includes new programming, that is what I mean by "modify"-ing the chat system. What counter-measures? Will the chat be any clan can chat with any clan, or only those invited and accepted amongst each other can chat? And really what clans are we targeting here? I don't see random clans ever wanting to chat with each other. And if they did then a player from their clan would request to join yours. The only reason I would see random clans talking to each other is after a war to spout some rage. Otherwise, feeder clans and other close-knit players could just clan-hop or talk via one of the aforementioned programs. The real question is, does Supercell really intend for different clans to bond with each other? I think the answer can be found in the title of the game. Honestly, you want players to join your clan, that is the whole purpose; go to war. If not for rage or feeder clan purposes the feature would be used to poach other people's players and there's already global chat for that.
I don't see Supercell viewing this as an impactful edition to Clash, one worth their effort on the development, programming and implementation; there are just too many other options outside the game available for chat that people already use.
I like the idea, if it would be like in global and not in clan chat that swearing would be censored and that any clan can leave whenever they want (against abuse), then it could be a really nice idea
