Clan Auto-Kick

Hi all,

The idea is simple, an optional choice to enable/disable an auto-kicking feature for clan members that are inactive.

There should only be 2 options to edit the feature;

1. Exclude Co-Leaders/Elders? [YES/NO]

2. The amount of days before the player gets kicked. (Minimum 3, Maximum 30?)

It would kick them if they haven't opened Clash of Clans within the time period selected. It would help a lot with filtering out inactive players more efficiently.

In my opinion only the Clan Leader should have access to edit this as I feel there are a lot of disruptive players out there who could abuse it to destroy a clan. It can be debated though.

Proper clan management is needed rather than a system that is automatic.

Worst idea ever. Learn to manage your clan.

No automated tool will cover every situation and will miss people who drop in to avoid a kick but still don't participate and kick people who have valid reasons to be inactive.

An inactive player only affects your clan. Dumping them automatically will potentially make the recruitment tool even less effective and that affects every clan.

I’ve been kicking inactive members for over five years. I wish it could be automatic.

🙄 I never needed help to notice who is inactive. And I have no need of help to kick them out.

What recruitment tool? Is that the one where u invite someone and it tells u their inbox is full?

Why was my comment deleted with no notification ?

But Clash of Clans have Clan Games and Clan Wars, so it's easy to spot who ain't online

Because it is ruled out.

It is also against the rules to publicly discuss moderator actions. If you have an issue, take it up with the moderator concerned if you know which one it is, or with any moderator otherwise.

Oh yes, it is also (unsurprisiongly) against the rules to repost something that has been deleted.

My comment are only partially ruled out, and there's also some suggestion other then the ruled out idea, that I didn't read carefully.
You can't always say something without mentioning others, and that's not even the point of my comment.
You're the mod, what have I to say, BRAVO

Your suggestion is entirely ruled out. There weren't even multiple parts to it, for only part to be ruled out.

Not at all sure what you are trying to say here.

You can say what you like (provided it isn't abusive or bad language), but privately not publicly.

My point is (ruled out part) but we got clan wars and clan games, so it's pretty easy to spot people who are inactive, that's the point of my comment, not the part that I'm mentioning before I said this.

In the post that was deleted, you didn't even mention that.

I missed it in the later post, and edited it out with the ruled out bit by mistake. Apologies for that. Now reinstated.

But again - this conversation should be taking place by Private Message, NOT in public. Please do not make any further public comments on the matter, or action is likely to be taken.

I think I manage my clan well.

No automated tool will cover every situation, no, but tools are useful. Spelling check tools don't write my communications but they are still very useful.

I would like to be assisted by some option tools. eg.

• Autokick a new member after one week of no donations or received troops.
• Autokick anyone who at the end of the season does not have a league shield, and preferably kick them into the sleeper clan where I can still talk to them, and they can still play with the low activity players.

Routine tasks like these, the chores, are well assigned to tools, so that when I log on I can engage in the positive aspects of the game.

If kicking inactive people is a routine task (I assume you mean regular), you might manage your clan well but you're creating the situation.

You run at least two clans, recruit to the sleeper and promote to the other when they prove communicative and active.

Open clans need to expect a lot of kicks.

Transferring, not kicking, into another clan needs quite a lot of changes. Twinning, allying, coupling clans has been requested for some time. We need that before we need auto-kick.

I'm past the effort of running multiple clans but SC supported alliances between clans are becoming useful as clans manage CWL rosters.

I get what you are saying, but it's not onerous unless you let it get out if hand. We kick if a person doesn't respond, good player or bad, and we rarely kick more than two in a day. Clan set to invite.

Kicking was easier once if I recall correctly. Wasn't it possible from chat ?

Kicking did used to be easier, such as from the chat. To do it carefully, I find I need two devices. The main reason for kicking is failure to turn up for war wen opted in. You can’t kick from the war team view, and I like to check their base for signs of activity.

Coupling clans is something I very much desire, cross clan chat, donations, and even being able to kick someone into another clan.

I’ve never run a feeder clan, or a clan with a feeder, but I’ve been in them, and what I saw is that they are not stable, but soon go their own ways. The top clan has people join via real life contacts, not via the feeder. The feeder clan develops on its own, and gains an independent identity, and a loyalty to their own.

I reckon I kick on average two per week for not turning up to war, plus five per season for being insufficiently active. The war no show kicks usually return and say sorry, no WiFi, went camping, house burned down, or something.

I'm not in favour or any automated clan management including auto kick , I've played lot of MMOs and never heard of this and that's definitely not the way a clan should run, the responsibility of managing the clan must be on the leaders shoulders not on some bot
, but I do prefer to have the tools and aids for better management , for this inactivity auto kick , the info that should be available to the leaders is unfortunately ruled out so no point in discussing that.
