Ever seen those CC requests where people request specific troops/levels? My update request is to allow people to choose specific troops/lvs (similar to the troop list when donating), to request specific troops. This will also allow ONLY the donations of those selected troops.
Donating would be harder to achieve. Being too specific is not a good idea. What is stopping someone saying level 2 Witch when they are town hall 8Quote:

During war, it is especially important to get specific troops to work with your attack strategy. I had a clan mate request a pekka to go with his gowipe, and before I could give it to him, someone else gave him archers... Or many clans constantly have other members donating goblins and wall breakers to war CCs. This is not ok. But some people don't read, or click too fast to donate. And some peope just like to cause trouble.
Ask for level 4 dragons.
Only one 15 space clan castle.

These are my feelings whenever I see a request of some form of safeguard against something. If SC implemented all these safeguards people request, then the game would become way too monotonous. Let's look at this example specifically. If SC made it so only requested troops could be donated, then it would really blur the line between good, coordinated clans with good leadership, and those without. If someone is a troll and is intentionally donating stuff that isn't being requested, then he needs to be kicked. If someone is not thinking when they donate and not reading, a leader or co needs to talk with him and make sure he slows down. The clans who allow it to happen deserve to get unrequested troops. I like having human personality as a game factor, and many requested safeguards would take that away. So like most similar ideas, I'm gonna have to disagree with this one.
I like it... hope it is put into game

I've been in both, and I'll admit, I'm not that good. I'm TH 10 but im not fully maxed out. When you get into war with only TH 10s, everybody better know what they're doing. For our type of clans (with a good set of high lv leads/ cos, and a lot of new players) we don't wanna kick every noob that comes in and doesn't know when/what not to donate. There are times when it is ok to donate your lv 2 archers... And there are times when it isn't. This allows clans the opportunity to let in low lvs without worrying about what they will donate.
There is no flaw I see. People can now actually get the troops they want. No more giants etc. When wanting defensive troops and no more goblins etc when asking for a dragon. And if people ask for something they want/need they get it. Why give people the satisfaction of getting awards and being praised for donating when they really don't deserve it?

It is frustrating to receive different troops from the ones you requested then have to remove them and wait for the timer to reset. I noticed that this happens a lot when there are new members or players from other countries where there is a language barrier. We have kicked members who are in war for this reason and had a few unused attacks.
However, as another poster have mentioned it will make donating more difficult. Many clans have donation requirements (usually 1:1 or 1:2) and it would be difficult for lower level members to hit that number when people are requesting troops levels higher than theirs.
Would it suck to receive barbs/goblins when you requested wiz/archers? Yes. Would it suck to be kicked out of a clan for not meeting the donation requirement simply because your troops are not high enough level? Also yes. So it all comes down to good clan management and integrating new members into the clan well enough for this not to happen or at least less frequently.
Maybe you can only set troop restrictions on troops you have unlocked.
ie. A th8 can't ask for witch.
A guy with lvl 2 wizards can't ask for lvl 5+ wizards, etc.
This can also cause problems as lowel level players usually need stronger troops for war attacks.Quote:

The restriction that prevents them from donating, or them getting yelled at for donating the bad troops, until eventually getting kicked? In my clan, if it is for farming, anything goes. But for war, those requests mean what they say.

Managing a clan properly is important. But kicking low lvs becomes tiresome after a while, especially when they are useful when it comes to the war rankings. Lower lvs are needed to help balance the clan out and make wars a bit easier. If you're always having to kick them, The wars are gonna be much more difficult.
The time is much better spent teaching the noobs how to set up a proper defense and attack, rather than constantly telling them what not to donate to whom.
Not to mention the fact that a lot of people go on a click-fest when they see several requests. Even I've done it from time to time.
