The perils of the occasional leader!
I am in an excellent active clan with a reasonable war record. W4 L4. I am a co-leader but our leader only comes on maybe once or twice a week. I assume he set up the clan when he was more active. I have now reached level 83 and overtaken his level by some way. I effectively run the clan.
I have about 5 sensible elders and 2 co leaders. All is well in the garden. Then our leader (who seems a nice chap even though rarely if ever on chat) comes on last week and promotes 5 more elders. Cue moans from non promoted players many of which were quite right as the choices were random and ignored more active players. It is amazing how much the atmosphere changed instantly! The chat was frosty and to be frank the feel of the clan is not the same and has been damaged considerably.
Anyway, off pops the leader on his merry way leaving me to try and repair the cracks before the dreaded red type starts appearing with people jumping ship! Grrrr. I know I could leave and start again with probably at least 20 nailed on to follow me but 45 active players who all war is not easy to achieve and takes time and work.
Sorry, needed to whinge. I feel better now.:mad:
