Way too many clan jumpers

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)

NO. The thread is about WHAT TO DO ABOUT SO MANY CLAN JUMPERS. Your inability to discuss the problem without attaching to made up solutions in your head is the issue. Opt in/opt out fixes the war part of it. So it's relevant. You're wrong. Again.

Stop trolling. The OP and many other people here have had a problem with people leaving without attacking in wars. The simple answer is to not go to war with new people, and an opt out would make that incredibly easy.

The one who keeps going off on a tangent is you, just go to reddit and stop trolling already :rolleyes:

Seriously? IM THE ONE WHO JUST SAID OPT IN WAS RELEVANT. It was your boy who said it wasn't. Can you people read?

I told you what would get me to leave. You're not doing it as I suspected you wouldn't.

IF it was VERY expensive to join the clan and a penalty was passed to those who practice this repeatedly it would discourage this practice. Come on supercell! ITs a SIMPLE fix and one that is SO SO very much needed. Thanks for anything you do to Discourage this behavior.

People can leave and join how they want. If they leave it is because they don't like the clan so they should be allowed to leave. And remember that ,for the war, it goes both ways. Both clans have people that are in war but aren't in the clan.

My bad its hard to see passed the rage caps sometimes, but I don't have any children...

If you're having an issue with clan hoppers you need to manage your clan better. Make the trophy requirement higher so lower levels (who tend to be the hoppers) are unable to join. Also try asking people to donate before requesting and instead of recruiting players from global, recruit from the forums. Members from here tend to be more loyal from personal experience.

Global is re known for bad apples and hoppers so recruit elsewhere.

The original statement was not in rage caps. Not sure what other options are available for people having their words completely ignored.

Sorry how does "butt buddy" fit?
