I'm still waiting for that valid argument to WHY they should be able to collect minor contributions from members?

You're contradicting Yourself. If the "smaller" ones in Your clan pay contribution to leaders, then it'll slow down their growth and only leaders will be bigger and stronger.

Then you just need to get promoted... or have your own Clan. Why should Higher level Members contribute to helping you win? If I give you Lvl5 Barbs to fight a TH4-5 opponent it is spending MY resources to give you an advantage. What Do I get for that Advantage? What are you doing to help me? I give you Hog Riders or Vals? That isn't worth 1% of your haul?

If you don't use Troops from your Clan mates then sure you shouldn't pay, but if I help you out, or My Leader slips me a Lvl 3 Dragon... I owe him one! Since I can't give him worthy troops 100 gold per thousand I take is worth it to me!

I don't think I have ever seen a dumber comment.

What about the FIN achievement? arent we, the members, by requesting allowing him, the leader, to get closer to getting that achievement and the gems that go with it? I know 250 gems isnt a lot, but to those that dont Pay4Play, it is.

leaders are supposed to lead those who cannot lead themselves, meaning that they help out their clan no matter the cost for no return. Of course they can request too, then we can help them when they need it.

I can't beleive this thread is still going, thankfully supercell has more sense than some forum members:rolleyes:

There should be a loot tax paid to the hierarchy of the clan. Let's, for the sake of this example, say 1%. Every member pays a tax to the elders, co-leaders and leader. Elders to other elders, co-leaders and leader. Co-leaders to other co-leaders and leader. Within that 1%, elders get 50%, co-leaders get 35% and the leader 15% when being paid by a member or elder. The split would be 75% to other co-leaders and 25% to the leader when the co-leaders are being taxed.

So, if a member were to loot 10 million gold and elixir in a week, 100k (1%) would go towards the clan tax. 50k split between the elders, 35k split between the co-leaders and 15k to the leader. Same breakdown if an elder is being taxed. If a co-leader lots 10 million a week, 75k to other co-leaders and 25k to the leader.

Obviously this will add a whole new dimension to clan politics and people will try to manipulate it to their advantage. You will probably have to put a cap on it where one individual can only receive up to a total amount. But, it does make you choose your leaders more carefully and how many of each you choose. It also gives each individual something to shoot for other than the ability to promote/kick and write messages.

Obviously the numbers and percentages can be played with, the ones in this thread were to just explain the idea. Let me know what you think.

If being an elder means you get 50% of tax split between you and other elders. Wouldn it benefit to have more co leaders? So you would lose less money. This being if you were a greedy leader.

This is the absolute dumbest idea ive ever heard. You must work in politics, im guessing....

I gotta agree with this guy. I'm a Co-leader, and while an extra source of resources would be cool, I wouldn't want to take them from my members and elders. They worked for those resources, it'd be stupid if I could take some of them away.
