PART 2 OF 2
Furthermore, some suggestions for the interface rework. (sorry if this isn't exactly what you're looking for in this thread, it was included in your main post so I figured I might as well mention them)
First of all, I think the new interface is looking very promising! The current one is very user-unfriendly, so this is a much needed change. Whatever you can do to reduce the amount of clicks and interfaces I have to go through to edit my clan members, the better!
One thing I would urge for is working with colours. For example, instead of just having the “Avatar Warden” checkbox on the “Player Based Permissions” interface, also have the background colour of that cell change to green. There are a lot of boxes and text on these interfaces, so working with colours would greatly improve the sense of orientation and requires much less focus especially if you're tired. If this is not feasible, would changing the colour of the checkmark to a different colour be possible? If that also isn't possible, could you make the list sortable by columns? Just anything to improve visibility.
Also, when I make changes to any data of a clan member, could their entire row change to a different colour? Just something that allows me to quickly find all the people I've just made changes to for one last check, before I press that “Save All” button.
NIS might not allow for this, but here goes:
I have two pretty big monitors, one of which I can turn 90°, which gives me a lot of vertical space. Considering there are potentially 500 clan members, it would be amazing if I could utilise all that vertical space to look at pretty much all my clan members' data at the same time. So in essence: is it possible for you to let the interface fill up all the available space to reduce scrolling? I'm asking because from the draft you've shown, I can see about a maximum of 11 members on the clan menu, instead of the 18 we can see on the current interface.
