Any possibility that the 7 day wait could still apply to members who were kicked from a clan for whatever reason?

One problem with the current system is that the penalty for leaving and being removed from a clan is the same - 7 day wait. Some people therefore, go out with a "bang". Some wait period for members removed from a clan would help to deter that sort of behavior in the future.

It actually is not hard at all to recruit with this,
Just need the understanding with the prospective members that they can guest
in the clan and participate while waiting out the probation.

Less clan hopping this way :p


Except that very few people actually like the concept of the system, with it's multiple failings and no input from clan leaders - instead it was just a "oh here's an update we're sure you'll love!"
It didn't work out, and I can't wait for it to be removed.

I liked it, and it didnt really cause us a issue, it did make people think about do i really want to join a clan. Also it was introduced if memory serves me correct for the clan cup games issues.

Basically seems we are going back to the old way, I think its a shame. I am with you on this one aaron

I did say very few people liked it. There was a huge issue created here in the CLF with people opposing the idea, and many people kicked from the forum for it. And yes, a whole system was brought on for a small event that happens for a few weeks annually that the very large of majority of clans don't care for, or participate in.

Looking at it from your position there might not be many (if any) downsides to the current system. Perhaps you could try to look at it through the eyes of someone who took a long break from the game. The system isn't too friendly to those players. Nobody should be stuck for a week with a clan they've picked ages ago, which died during their absence. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with your view. I just hope we can look beyond what the current system does for us and improve it in general, for all players.
