Although this is a fabulous attempt to activate existing clans with inactive clan leaders, there is always room for further considerations and improvements. The current criteria has some flaws not only for existing clans where no deputy owner is designated, but opens opportunity for exploitations by current active leaders. Example:
(I plan on quitting the game but before i do, I'll rank everyone to Overseer and below. This ensures if i change my mind later regardless if over 12 months or not, I'll still have ownership)
Opening up the ability for highest ranking member of the clan to apply for said ownership would alleviate these issues.
Current clans that are struggling with maintaining Tier 7 with Overseers and below is a problem. To remove yourself and all active members, then start a new clan, just to start all over again from scratch does seem a bit harsh. Especially so when the clan can simply be saved using the system you and Mod Maz has presented to the clan community and initiating some minor adjustments.
This adjustment should be very minor just as it is by declaring the need for deputy owners to request ownership. The following Criteria would make more sense and would correct any issues where there are no deputy owners, and wouldn't prevent progress of the clan if a disgruntled or departing clan leader decided to use your system to their advantage.
Proposed Adjusted Criteria
1) Your Clan Leader must have been inactive (ie not logged in) for over 12 months.
2) One of the highest ranking members must have been active in the last 7 days.
3) The request for change of ownership must be made by the highest ranking clan member.
You get the idea I'm sure
As with most clan content and topics, the word
NO
seems to be a very common answer, but, I am asking that you and Mod Maz please reconsider the criteria of this program and make some very desperately needed improvements.
Thanks,

The limitations currently in place are there for technical reasons - while I understand your reasoning for your suggestions we will not be changing the current policies on this in the foreseeable future.

Hey, our clan has an inactive Clan Leader. Most of our high ranked players are inactive. But I am still active, and I was wondering if I could take lead of being the Clan Leader. I am currently a Deputy Owner, so I request to be Leader, as the current leader has been inactive for over a year.
Clan Name: Rockin Skills
Inactive Clan Owner: Fog825
My rank: Deputy Owner
It would be appreciated if the current clan owner was demoted to recruit.
Thank you.
Your Clan Owner last logged in during April this year. As such your request does not meet the criteria for removal of an Inactive Leader.
Hi, so im looking to make a clan, but the name happens to be taken by a user who has been inactive for ages, their user name is [#4WU9FYZT0]. (lol) But they are the only member in their clan and I would like to make one with the name. (Im kinda paranoid on saying the name because I like it and dont want it to be stolen).
So Im not sure if criteria meets with that but I think it would?
Please get back to me, and if possible through message center would be a lot more easier.
Edit: would be easier for you i guess if i gave the clan name
It is "
