Elder limitation

[Ratchetfatchet]

Ever since i started playing coc about a year ago it had been evident that elders should not have the power to kick other players. It is a mess when most of the clan can kick other players, and most players expect to get a promotion if they are to stay in the clan.

So the request: remove the elders ability to kick, or add another role. Maybe players can start as student, then get promoted to member, for example.

But the cleanest option would be that only co-leaders and leader can kick. You can have many co leaders, after all.

Or you can just not promote all your members to Elders...it sounds like every problem you have, you brought upon yourself. Promotions should be earned, not given away to anyone

So just dont promote anyone unless you trust them.

If guys tell me they need a promotion to stay in the clan I just know right away they are not going to last so I don't do it. After you give them elder they will want co. And then they will want some other consideration too until they get to things you can't give them, then they quit You have to understand that these are guys that just 'want'. Eventually they go to another clan because guys that think that way always see things as grass is always greener where they are not.


So try just not giving it in the first place. If they quit that s fine, and then just know that was for the best. And if they start being unpleasant or negative in the feed about it then just kick them. They were useless anyhow.

Be a strong firm leader that doesn't get pushed around. Even if its a pain to have to play hardball once in a while it pays off in the long run.

I agree, players that join and just ask for promotions right away are are not worth keeping. I'm not talking about those.

If you have a good clan, where most members have been with it for 2 months to over a year, they should be allowed to be elder. But even though they are loyal players, it does not make them suited to decide if other players should be kicked.

There are only 4 Roles in coc, and 3 of them has the ability to kick. It's simply not a good solution. I see it only causing trouble, and never anything good. We dont need elders to have the ability to kick. We have co leaders for that.

I disagree completely. You know the implications of giving members elder, you know what the role entails. if they aren't capable of using the only benefits of elder responsibly why do they deserve it?

[Ratchetfatchet]

The point is, that loyal long time players should be allowed to get a promotion, without them getting too much power.

So we need a role that is a "promotion just to keep them happy".

This game has too many hoppers, and we need options to counter that.

[Denrochee]

Let's give some perspective...

Let's say I'm a hard working employee, doing my job to the best of my abilities. Do I deserve a promotion to be a group supervisor for example? Even if I have no qualifications and are apparently not mature enough to be able to supervise people?

What you can do instead is make sure they are happy, keep their clan castles full with great troops. Keep chatting with them etc. Don't make them feel like they need a promotion to a job they obviously can't handle the responsability of.

I don't think I'll ever agree with a "keep them happy" position which is a renamed member.

U can even kick every1 whos asking for elder :P
Its best think what u can do with that troll

[dragonhealers]

if they do that elder is useless. no new powers.

they cant kick, or promote. id personally say elder needs the ability to promote back. i hope they dont take stuff away from coleders next.
