    In Star Trek Online, Star Wars Online and other F2P games I have received donations from my Clanmates, It helps but does not break the game. I also make donations to the Clan's Coffers!
    Paying taxes to people is not working together. Nor is it comparable to other games where you make donations to a clan bank. It's not like leadership can use these funds for contests or to purchase clan wide advantages. You're just giving them funds and receiving nothing extra in return for it.

    You are gaining the protection of the Clan. You can have Troops donated that can be far superior to what you can make. It is a small price to pay for being in a Clan. They COULD eventually go towards such things as you suggested. But unless we ask for such things, they won't be looked into.

    You gain the right to participate in War.

    Gaining the protection of the clan? What is this, the mob?

    If SC wanted to release clan levels or some such where member activity contributes to increasing those levels, they could. This has been requested before already and is an idea I like. No taxation required.

    You join an organization, you declare war on other organizations... maybe it is the Mob. I guess being a UAW member gives me a different perspective on paying dues.

    Right now, what is the point in moving up the clan hierarchy? A label in front of your name? No, I've got it! I can write little messages to the rest of the clan! YES!

    Its not not like it would be required. Join a clan that doesn't do it.

    I said it before, it's not like it will be millions of gold and elixir.

    The purpose of the clan hierarchy is to maintain order through an increasing set of management privileges granted at each level. Clearly no order within a clan could be maintained if all members had equal amounts of privilege. Thus there are a few different ranks that allow for a variety of different clan governmental structures. The idea being to allow a lot of freedom in how a clan is run but not so much that the interface becomes overly complicated.

    This does not make it a good idea. This specific idea I believe is really on the fence as to whether or not it's ruled out as a form of loot transfer.

    Actually it would indeed be that. My gold grab is in the hundreds of millions. Others have gold grabs in the billions.

    It's not like your clan leadership contributes to your raiding success in any way.
    this should be adding for donations, i think it should give hierarchyly to donations rate (troop u donated-troops u asked), the one who donates the most dont pay, and receive from everyone, the 2-5th pay to the first and receive from the others, the 5th to 10th receive from 11th to the rest. The percentage should be taking just from people colector, or decrease to 0.1%.

    If you think hoppers are a problem now just wait until you are taxing loot. Nobody in their right mind would join a clan except to get a few troops. Taxing lower ranked members to feed loot to the elite members is a horrible idea. Bad in every way.
