Aren't Public Polls Supposed to show who voted for what? It doesn't show for me.:(

Yeah there's a way to see but I haven't figured out how :)

The part in bold I do not quite understand. Could you Clarify?

I'm a co-leader in a small clan, which I sort of manage part time. But, we've lost too many members to go to war. I hate the idea of leaving a clan with a decent war record and level 2 perks.

I recently joined another clan, just so I could go to war. I switch back and forth a few times a week, and I lose all my donation stats. I'm usually highest in donations after a couple days, then it resets, then I'm highest again, then it resets, and so on. BTW, I left a dummy account in the old clan with co-leader access, so I can promote myself back to co every time I rejoin (if I need to, otherwise I don't bother).

Anyway, I guess my next biggest issue (after losing stats) is that the new clan is invite only, so every time I get back into the clan, I'm a member again, until a co-leader notices and promotes me. (I'm not petty enough to ask every time I rejoin, so I have to wait until someone notices, usually after a war.)


I actually wouldn't mind making my old clan an official feeder clan into the new clan, assuming both leaders agree. But it would be nice if there were a built-in way to set up one or more (maybe limit to 3-4) feeder clans, so that stats don't reset when you switch between the clans. Even if each clan keeps its own stats, it would at least be nice if they don't get forgotten when you go between.

This isn't really about feeder or family clans. It's about being able to have membership to different clans at once. It's kind of like dual citizenship, but for Clash. There's already an idea to link clans. My idea is totally different, it's more like linking YOU to the clans, not the clans to each other

Speaking of, why is linking feeders to the main clan ruled out?

First I like the idea myself since I move between a few clans and have people asking why I keep leaving.

However if if you look at the first line of the ruled out clan ideas it says that designating clans in association of sister/feeder is ruled out. I would think this idea may fall in line with that. As in making a clan a sister/feeder clan is ruled out. It may not be the same concept but may in the eyes of SC fall into same category.

Actually, it's the first line of the frequently requested section at the top. Ruled out ideas are at the bottom of that very long post. This has to be one of my biggest pet peeves with that thread, is that people think everything in that thread is ruled out. Nope, just the stuff at the bottom, under the heading:

My idea has absolutely nothing to do with linking clans. It has to do with allowing the player to travel between multiple clans quickly, and easily. Maybe someone could explain to me why everyone has that impression?

I'm not sure. Maybe because it could mean more complications for like, wars and raiding. I hope this isn't linked with that suggestion though.

I agree that donations should be carried over if you switch to other clans, although i think that the reason it is erased in the first place is to prevent or atleast minimize player movement between clans.

I agree with rwelsh that a player should only have a max of, say, 2 clans registered to. One is your primary clan, and the other is the clan that you usually switch over to war or donate or simply to chat buddies with. You can change the secondary clan but only once every 24 hrs. Im not really sure how the other mechanics go because im imagining this to become very complex when you think about the scale of players that it will handle.

Dont get me wrong, i like the idea. Just not sure if SC does.

Oh and i like the thing about your profile displaying the clans that you belong to.
