Leaving the clan should not be so easily

Hello Everyone!

I am the leader of a clan. I am encountering a very annoying problem: there are many people join my clan, then they click the leave button, or some leave when I am not on. Our clan need more member, but I cannot prevent them from leaving again and again. This is because leaving a clan is very easy: just by clicking a button, members can leave easily. But no one can prevent them from leaving. I think it is not good. It will cause the great loss of many high level players in the clan, whereas many non-active players staying in the clan.

In my opinion, the leaving button should be modified like this:

1. When the leader clicks the leave button, A pop-up with a box will appear. You must type "CONFIRM" in the box, then click OK. U can leave.

2. When other players in the clan click the leave button, A pop-up with with the caption "Do you really want to leave? Before leaving, say something to the leader" and a box will appear. The OK button will be replaced by Send. After you type your request in the box, then tap Send, and a message saying "Request sent, waiting for leader's response" will appear. Meanwhile, the leader will see the request in the chat. there will be 2 button "Allow" and "Deny" below the request. If allowed, the player will leave the clan. If denied, the inbox of the player will contain a message saying "Your request is denied, you cannot leave the clan."

3. New member cannot leave the clan, and member will have to wait for 12 h to sent another request if they have already send one.

So you are basically proposing that as a leader... you should have the option to force someone to stay in your clan? Lol... good luck with that

What you are asking for is a way to hold people captive in your clan. I don't understand what you hope to gain by imprisoning someone in your clan?

Sorry, but this will never be implimented, everyone has the right to play freely and leave any clan they wish too.

This, if you are having problems I suggest you recruit from better places like reddit or our Clan Talk section.

Ah, this would be funny since I'm a leader, but no I dont like the idea. Uh-uh.

They have clans like this already. They are called jails.

I understand the frustration of recruiting and running a clan. But you need to understand, that doing this would cause major problems not only with the players, but support. They would recieve thousands of thousands of requests and complete about being held against their will.

Also, some people like to visit clans temporarily, that might even be under 12 hours. The pain of people constantly leaving cannot be resolved by denying them from leaving. If you are having trouble with members, I'd recommend going in the art sub-forum and request some good art for banners. Then you could start a clan thread on the forum with those banners that say "Rules", "About Us", "Recruitment", "History", etc. then provide some text underneath. That will help attract forumers to your clan, and hopefully you will get some loyal, responsible and enjoyable people.

Please don't feel discouraged in making another request/idea for Clash of Clans. No idea is wrong, but some are not well thought out or have not taken into account all the negative/bad causes of the idea, of that makes sense? Some things that happen in the game that are not good and are painful cannot always be resolved by new features, but can be resolved in other ways.

Hope you understand, clash on! :)

LOL there's a few people I've wanted to do this to just to troll them

You want to be able to hold people hostage? This would cause more trouble than good, people should be able to choose if they want to leave, or else they will likely only donate wallbreakers and be as annoying as possible until you kick them. However, I agree with some sort of addition to the confirmation if the leader leaves however, letting him know who's going to be in charge and possibly requiring another step as you say, typing CONFIRM like for the name change. Once I left a clan thinking that my second account would be in charge while I was gone, but another member got it and he kicked out everyone (it was a tiny clan with only about 3 people but regardless). Perhaps you could choose who to promote as your replacement?

It's frustrating having members hop in and out of your clan. But any form of 'locking' them in is far, far worse.

Just think, you joined a new clan and you don't want to be in there. Your beliefs are very much against the type of chat they are having, or they are employing certain war tactics you are very much against.

If you are been forced to stay...you're going to find a way to get out. So instead of quietly leaving the clan, you would start spamming the clan chat, swearing, insulting the other players in there forcing them to kick you out instead.

A member just leaving quietly is a far better alternative.
