Suspend Status for Clan Members

Feature Request:
"Suspend" button appears when a leader click's on a regular clan member's name. Button is replaced by "Reinstate" when viewing a suspended member. A clan member who is suspended will be excluded from the war when a search is conducted. The member will still be able to participate in clan chat though and donate troops to support the war effort.


Premise:
Clan members have varying levels of commitment to the game. Some are very active who prefer a permanent state of war. Others are casual gamers who check their village once a week. Usually these birds flock with others of the same feather in the online world. This is harder though for clans built around real world friendships. An inactive player negatively affects the clan during war leading to resentment among clan mates. Ultimately, this leads to strained relations in real life. A suspended status (perhaps someone can come up with a better term?) aims to fix this by allowing the hardcore and the casual gamers to co-exist within the same clan.


Pros:
- Temporarily inactive members can be just suspended instead of being kicked out
- Can be used as a form of punishment to address inappropriate behavior that does not justify an expulsion
- Leaders can better strategize since they'll be able to choose which members are not yet ready for war


Possible Points for discussion:
- Who should have the right to suspend members? Leaders only? Up to Elders?
- What should be the consequences of suspension? Just exclusion from war? Chat participation? Troop requests?
- Cons of having the suspended status. Can it be abused somehow?

This is a nice idea that will more than likely be added sooner or later! However this has been asked for like a million times... Use search in the future!

It's fine man it's a great idea and honestly it needs to be added! Yah if u use the search tool for an opt out of war thing there will be a lot of results!

I agree. I think only coleaders+ can suspend. Elder is too much power.

Suspend should prevent them from warring (unless overridden with a opt in system(that I'm assuming will get implemented sometime)) and also decrease request time to 30 min

If this idea is put into the game, than leaders would just suspend players in lower levels and have a higher chance of winning.

There have been a lot of similar post, pls check before posting something that is already there. Thanks 😊

Not if they want to win. War is more complicated than just loading up the highest level guys. In fact, doing that can hurt your chances of winning. The low level guys add a lot of value so you want to keep them. its greatest use would just be guys needing breaks for life reasons or upgrades, stuff like that.

\\Its cool man. Its because its worded a little different there. Many of the 'read the sticky' cops don't realize how often a word search does not find it unless you hit upon exact wording.

Also its a very good idea so it is good for it to get raised multiple times. The more the better in fact. Its badly needed so if it keeps popping up a ton of times that helps by showing just how widely needed it really is.
