There are many clans out there that are well built and pretty strong. Many with maxed out players and a maxed a clan of people well in to the 100's. But these clans don't get built overnight. They all start with one person who spends 40k to start up a new clan. I've tried this many times and every time I have seemed to fail. I have realized it is ridiculously hard to start up your own clan. Although recently I have succeeded in making a pretty decent clan..... until last night. So I have come up with a few ideas to help better clans. If you have any ideas to improve clans please post below.
Anyway I had a pretty decent clan. I had about 15 people between levels 40 and 90. Whatever not great but enough to do a war. Anyway last night one of my two co-leaders was recruiting. He got in two level 100 guys. One of the new players asked for the position of co leader. In the description I explained to not hand out free promotion. But in order to keep the guy around one of my co's agreed and gave out free co. The level 100 who was newly promoted kicked out everyone in the clan that he could. I was in bed at the time and when I cam back on he kicked out 12 players. So now the clan is just down to 3 people again. Whats worse is we were in prep day to start a war now we only have 3 out of the 10 players so there is no way we will win. Great time to start the clan all over again.
Anyway there are definitely ways this can be avoided.
1. Please either go back to the 3 level clans of only member, elder and leader. The leader should be the only one to promote members to elder. Elders should be able to edit the clan and kick people they see fit. But they should be unable to hand out promotions.
2. Stay with the current system. Fine! keep the 4 level system of member, elder, co-leader and leader. I don't mind either way. However I don't think that co- leaders should have the authority to promote someone to the same level. The should only be able to promote people to elder because it's below their status.
3. Keep the system how it is but add in an option for only the leader of a clan to touch. And that's how promotions are given. When editing a clan have it set so that the leader and co-leaders only promote members who have met certain requirements. These requirements can be as follows.
- Member can become elder if he has donated 200, or 300, or 400, etc troops per season. This member can't be promoted unless his season donations has reached that amount. or an alternative.
- Members can only be promoted if they have stayed a certain amount of days in the clan. Members won't be able to be promoted unless they have stayed the minimum number of days required to be promoted.
- Elder to co-leader promotions can be done in the same way.
but also keep it as an option so that clans dont have to turn on these options if they dont want to. So if a clan doesnt like the idea they dont have to use it.
4. kick out cool down. Elders should have a 30 minute cool down for kicking people out and co's should have a 10 minute cool down. This would prevent someone from being quickly promoted to kicking everyone out of the clan. Remember, a leader can control who is co or elder but they can't control what that player does.
5. Only a leader can kick out elders. Chances are if someone has promoted a player to elder they have probably earned that position in a clan and the leader probably wants him or her staying.
6. War time mandatory stay. If someone is in a clan war they should not be able to leave the clan until the war is over. With the new "I'm in feature" a player doesn't have to participate in the war if he or she doesn't want to. But if a player is in a war they shouldn't be allowed to leave the clan or be kicked from it while they are an active participant in the war. This would definitely prevent some problems with clans.
7. A certain period cool down time from going in between clans. I'm definitely sick of trying to start a clan and dealing with constant hoppers. If someone joins a clan they should be unable to leave it for a certain amount of time or if they leave they shouldn't be allowed to join another clan for an hour or so.
