[One & Only] Clan Chat Reporting

[Jose23]

Multiple reasons.

No matter how solid your line up is, you'll always need to recruit other members. Anyone can report anyone, from a new member reporting a leader to the opposite. This means that new people only need to be in the clan for a few seconds to destroy it and cause innocents to be banned.

I'm also concerned about others using it to send reports against the leader or co's as vengeance for not putting them in war, even if their swearing in a clan that advertises that they allow swearing, since SC may or may not deem it necessary to take action in such a case. And would happen fairly often in adult only clans.

I'm triply concerned about people trolling others in the clan by being hidden snitches, reporting "inappropriate behavior" even in a clan where such behavior wouldn't be considered inappropriate. And that SC won't see it that way and end up banning innocents.

The ways this can be horrifically abused are numerous, and if your just shrugging it off your either far too trusting of your fellow clan mates, know them all in real life, or somehow believe that a single bad member wouldn't take any chance possible to get those above them hurt and banned and steal power for themselves.

Even a Co would do this to a leader if it mean't they were banned since they (or another co) would then become leader. Co's would do it to other Co's to shrink the pool of people that can possibly be offered the leader position if the leader were banned....you see where I'm going with this?

Adult clans have A LOT to fear from this even existing. It needs to go.

Not to mention req n go clan. They are forcing us to play role reversal. Soon the leaders will be forced to become hoppers.

[Stormy90]

I was just told via in game support, the the report button works the same as it does in global. after so many reports u get banned from chat. Dont know how this works with request, replays, or fc.

I am on the side of "not a good idea"

I just see more situations where the change could cause issues than situations where it solves them.

Problem members can just be kicked. If the issue is protecting members from higher ups are they really going to stay in that clan long-term, when obviously the wrong type of person gets co-leader rank?

And that SC won't see it that way and end up banning innocents. One curse word in said adult only clan and ban, banned for inappropriate behavior. We don't know how deep SC looks into these things do we now?

Even a Co would do this to a leader if it mean't they were banned since they (or another co) would then become leader. Co's would do it to other Co's to shrink the pool of people that can possibly be offered the leader position if the leader were banned....you see where I'm going with this? And we don't even know that SC won't take action or will see the clan (or it's leader's) side of things, that since they advertise as a clan for adults only, meaning 18+, and they allow cursing, it wouldn't be inappropriate to swear there. Since we don't have evidence of them saying and proving this, we all need to be fearful now.

Just a single troll or hidden reporter or new player to the clan will absolutely wreak havoc and destroy it from the inside out.

Adult clans have A LOT to fear from this unwanted, and unnecessary feature even existing. It needs to go. The potential for extreme and easy abuse if just far too high to let this stick around.

I suppose so.

Guess it really comes down to whether or not players trust their clanmates, old and new. If you can't trust anyone and have to potentially vacate your clan, then there's a problem. It's human nature to abuse and take advantage.

Locks and laws only keep honest people honest.

This feature has been popping up a lot in I&FR sub.

Mostly the arguments in favor of it were childish and used "stalking" or "harassment" and then threw the fake legalese about SC needing to do something about it or face lawsuits. There were some seemingly legitimate complaints about vulgar language but mostly it was all oversensitivity to easily handled situations by using in game reporting and a few screen shots.

I am very much opposed to this new feature and it potential for abuse.

At least previously the reporting player had to actually decide if they were egrieved enough to send a message to support. Now it's just so easy to tap and report. And we all know that SC is going to err on the side of caution which is likely going to be very extreme.

And honestly why weren't we told about this feature? Is there some expectation the backlash any less if it's snuck into an update? A little clarfication, or actually an exact rundown of how it works, would be nice.

I didn't know about it but I sent a mail out to everyone to report me and it banned me for 2 days what should I do I tried contacting supercell earlier heard nothing yet the worst part is I'm a maxed th8 pushing for champs please help me what should I do?

Will any of the moderators kindly verify this information? This seems to contradict the communication we received from supercell that no automatic ban can happen.

[Willyking]

I like it.

Are you banned from chat only or the entire game?

If chat only, can you still request CC troops?

[Kozmo91]

Why is this in general and not in the clan chat forum?
