Level requirement to create clans

(1/11) > >>

Arturo Sanchez:
Since time immemorial (3 or so years ago) this game has not had a system of automatically dissolving inactive clans. In fact I don't even think there is a function to disband one either.

Most common of these are new players who bought the 4 pack and just created a clan amongst there friends. Play for awhile and then eventually quit the game. Some return. Majority find other games. Most often returnees aren't clan leaders or officers.

Let's just go with the assumption here, that if a player has made it to x lvl. They are far more likely to stick around long term. As such they are able ro create a clan that might actually last more than a week.


There are 4 characters in a clan tag. And many combinations are taken by dead clans. We will never see [NaCl] on active players ever again because of this fundamental problem.

Jamini:
Doing this will only chase off more new players that want to play with friends.

There are literally thousands of possible tags with only four potential characters (331,776 combinations, not including numbers or special characters, just using four letters alone). Running out of tags is completely a non-issue.

If there is a particular tag you want that is held by a dead clan, perhaps putting in a support ticket is a better option?

FranckM:
Should we not do a big cleaning of the clans and remove the records of all the clans (I meant disband the clans sorry too much programming today.) where no one connected in a year.

Richard LeMoon:
I think perhaps a change to the rules might be in order. Change the rules to:

"A clan name/tag hold will expire after three months if the clan contains less than four active members. This means your clan will remain in effect until someone else applies for that name/tag. After that, your clan will retain it's members, but will no longer have a name and will be unsearchable and unlisted on the leader boards."

That would solve a lot of problems.

Hoja Lateralus:
I suggest level requirement for playing matches. You have to earn lvl3 in tutorial and practice mode to play ;]
