Member < Warrior(?) < Elder < Leader

What happens 9 out of 10 times when a new recruit joins your clan?

They either (a) request dragons, hog riders, or some other high level troop and/or (b) immediately ask and sometimes demand Elder status.

I do not like the fact that there is no status between Member and Elder. I simply cannot trust awarding Elder status without knowing a player well enough and the clan I am in thankfully does not do this. However, being able to show recognition of a player's contribution to the clan and are valued is important before trusting them to the extent to making them an Elder with promotion capabilities. This is essential for retaining good players and weeding out the hoppers.

We had one issue a few months ago where someone was promoted to Elder and then disagreements occurred. One thing led to another in a short period of time and this particular Elder decided to promote all Members to Elders before providing all of us with a comical diatribe of our meaningless existence. Was it a big deal? No, not really. As soon as the Leader was able to log in he remedied the situation by demoting everyone aside from a trusted "inner circle" of players.
I think another status is necessary to help with this issue. I don't believe this would snowball into a desire for more and more statuses, but one more seems to be sensible to me.

Member - No privileges
Warrior - Can recruit
Elder - Can recruit and promote
Leader - God status of the clan

TL;DR - I think one more ranking level between Member and Elder would be helpful.

Thoughts?

Interesting
Member - No privileges
Warrior - Can recruit,​ cant kick
Elder - Can recruit and promote and kick
Leader - God status of the clan

there should also be a co leader rank

I wish I could count the amount if threads on this idea...But my brain might explode. Good idea though.

member-no privileges

scout-can recruit

warrior-can recruit and promote peeps to to scout only

elder-can recruit, promote to elder and lower, and kick out scouts and members

co-leader-can recruit, promote to elder and lower, can demote elders to warriors, kick out all lower levels than co, and automatically becomes leader when leader leaves, (there can only be 2 co-leaders in the clan)(if leader leaves and there r two co leaders then the leader becomes the one with more trophies)

leader-can recruit, promote to all levels, can demote to all levels, can kick all levels

there should also be an option for co-leaders to take a poll to overthrow the leader and the outcome comes from number of votes for either side(if a tie then leader stays)

Welcome to the forums! I must say I am really impressed with the quality of the post for the FIRST post of a forum newcomer.

Thanks. I tend not to say/suggest things unless I have given them some thought. Additionally, I only convey those ideas in a manner that reflects that degree of thought.

aka...I don't like to say stupid s*** unless I want to say stupid s***

:D

I am sure it has been proposed before and is not a novel idea. I just think it is one simple alteration to the game that should be given some attention.

Yup! I agree and thank you. I thought of this (I swear!) right after I posted it but didn't have the time to come back on.

NO! Have you ever been leader? If you were in my clan I'd kick you for saying this, no matter if you're co-leader or what.
