As much as I support that feature I think that is a very different topic from this one. Here are some other threads if you want to follow up on that to find like minded people that will support you.

Umm ... I was done yesterday ... then you had to get the final word. Well eff that sir. Maybe you think posters should defer to your self-proclaimed expertise but not me. I'm done arguing the point. But I'll be damned if you get to run around continuing to think you've won anything because you havent. You never used the "nice" approach on me. Condescending? Yes. Don't need your advice dude. I'm done with the rest of this forum but will ensure this thread stays at the top of the list until you either give it up, they shut it down or I'm dead. Whichever comes first.
Never wasn't done for real. You see post anywhere else in this forum? As long as you snide arses want to try to get the last word in, this thread will stay alive forever. Since I know you're apparently incapable of dropping it, it'll probably take an admin to shut it down. Until they do i want everyone to come this thread first thing upon entering the forum.
The thread is about penalizing guys from leaving clans as a means to prevent it.
I agree you are speaking more to the solution I offered (the one Bluto got mad about) in that its a tool to do one of the things I advised (making them wait through a war) in a better way than how its done today. (Kick/reinvite). But I was glossing over the opt in/out matter because I did not want to hijack the guys thread for a different debate on something that has been my own chief agenda on this forum for a long time. That's also why I only gave you other threads to read up on instead of adding my own suggested approach to that.
But the fact is you are bringing up the point I do like to push the most and so if its really felt to be the same topic then I am not hijacking if I add my full support to the idea here on this thread... (happy to get my license)
How I beleive it should work...
There should be a button (it can be a new one or the war shield can be modified) that toggles a player as in or out.
Access to hit the button to toggle should go to the leader and the player in question.
---- individual players cannot opt each other in or out
---- its an argument either way to give it to co as well - Good for clans where co is a management job, bad for clans that give it out like candy. (I consider the latter to be a sign of a bad leader)
---- A leader who abuses authority to opt guys in against their wishes are really just hurting their own selves for how they are adding a risk to their war participation. (the guy might then just not attack anyhow, if not seeing eye to eye with leader he wont care)
---- A leader opting a guy out against his wishes has that prerogative to decide who he wants in his war. And its still nicer than just kicking the guy like happens now.
The status of a player is only a factor right at the time a war starts. Instead of just selecting all eligible players from the total population it will just be all eligible players from the opted in group.
---- Can even implement by leveraging the existing eligibility functionality that currently is only driven by a timer.
After that everything works the same. The list of warriors from the clan is rounded to an even 5 via the existing logic and then the matchmaking calculation takes place also using the existing logic.
A player joins a clan with his eligibility set the same way it is today. (He is in unless there is a timer)
Things that would not happen -
...A player cannot add themselves to a war after the fact. If they change their status during a war it makes no difference until the next war when that status is read at startup.
...This would not serve as a way to replace members that take off during war. if they do that then there is the same affect on the war as there is today. Unused attacks stay unused. (it will never change that this just stinks when guys pull that stunt)
LOL, you are a silly one you are trying so hard to not have it end with you being owned by one or more people.
You are still spoiling for a fight. You keep being done, then you go off and sulk over how many people pointed out your foolishness, then you come back and try to see if you can somehow get something in to say its the forum that's stupid and not you (and keep getting owned for your trouble), then the cycle repeats.
So you are done or not done, the score gets confusing with you there.
Why do you have to punish the req n go clans, because you can't find the button that says 'invite only'?
