So your complaint is that you feel Mod Matthe spends too much time checking the clan leader access thread and too many clan leaders are allowed access? I.e, the requirements are too low?


If so, sorry I disagree, I would love to see more clan leaders having access, even brand new leaders. I feel they can give a different perspective on running a clan and what sort of things are needed nowadays to keep a clan healthy, plus what ever problems new clans are having. Their views may be focused on totally different issues than we here have.

@ OP

I agree with Sookie above.
With more clan leaders in here we can have more ideas & a more vibrant forum.
I think your attempt at humour is in no way funny, & has no place here.
In future I suggest you wear serious face before you post.



Sorry Mod Matthe, was trying something after my last indiscretion, I'll make myself scarce.

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound all serious business. It's just I feel the more input we can have here the better the forum section will be.

Don't make yourself scarce, there is nothing wrong with being humorous so long as it is in good taste. :P

I think the criteria needs re-examining, but I also think that you worded the opening post terribly; in such a manner that was obviously going to receive negative reaction.

Access does not need to be "exclusive" - it does however, need to only go to sustainable Clans (I.E. ones that aren't just going to die after 6 months).

I'm not a fan of the whole "Legacy Leader" thing that goes on too - I think if someone goes completely inactive , then they should be removed from the CLF. Only if someone was literally leading a clan for years, to the point in which the curator deems their leadership skills to be favourable, should they remain as a 'legacy' leader.

TBH i don't think there's anything wrong with the original post. You're only responsible for what you mean to say, not for how people interpret what you are saying.
Something written does not always carry over everything you actually want to say. Its only the words, not the feelings, humor, nuances, winks etc...

To the point of the actual question; Mathe has loads of work with this part of the forum, should the requirements change?

Imo, it should not.

The requirements;
I think the current requirements are fine as they are. Having a clan for over half a year, with a minimum of 50 members, more or less indicates that there is at least a minimum of experience in having a clan which makes input in this part of the forum useful.
Is it as a clanleader veteran, or as a newbie clan leader, all could be equally useful.

The work this costs for the mods
I'm sure its quite the job to do, on top of all the rest that might seem more important.
However, Imo the time Mathe and others spending on this access thread, is basically an investment in the future of the game, clans and this part of the forum.
Loads of people seem to not read the requirements and apply anyway, in the hope that they will get access regardless. I think those are an unnecessary workload, and maybe, that's where something can be done one way or another.

Those who actually gain access
I gather this is not one of your concerns as its not mentioned in the original post? In that case, this is a personal note :)
If you frequently read the clf threads, its mostly always the same people making posts, react etc etc. However that does not mean that others aren't lurking. I'm sure for some entering this part of the forum is about prestige only, but that's something you can't stop tbh.
Its basically working as our clans idea of recruiting, recruit loads without requirements, to eventually find that one that will make a difference.

Bottom line, no its fine as it is, we need the fresh blood

Wow I just checked how much work Matthe (& probably others but he was the only one I saw) has to do in that CLF access thread! :O

Pretty soon there will be like a million people in here, & it will be much more difficult for me to request personal missions ;)


How this thread even allowed? You want to raise the requirements so you can ask for personal favors from the J-Mods without being called out for it? (ROFL)

If it is your "my member didn't bot" thread, you should never have posted it, and it should have been locked on the spot. What you are doing right now, is you are making this forum curators feel guilty for being tolerant and wanting to help out (where they didn't instantly locked your thread).

Instead of acting with entitlement and think you are too special for being helped out from a J-Mod (where as we can see, it led to you developing audacity to post such arrogant and unintelligent suggestions), humble yourself and realize their help was pure generosity that you are never entitled for.

For dear Lucine.

CuddleBucket said :
Thanks again to Mod Matthe who went out of his way to help me, & I had a crack at him because I didn't think he took me seriously, when he had indeed done work.

Apologies & Thank You.

It was more than I deserved & I loved that you saw the human element from someone reaching out.


CuddleBucket said :
I did so!
My reason was the increasing time the Mods have had to spending with applications!
My title was blunt as to make my point clear while allowing me fun in discussion.

They are wasting Mod Matthe's time!
Now tell me, do you see anyone here that would dare waste Mod Matthe's time?

*Hides behind the leader lounge*


I ask you also read my last 2 posts on page 2 of the locked thread which I cannot quote.

Also the original thread was hidden, but I understand you're on a crusade now so evidence probably doesn't matter.
I think my acknowledgement of fault was pretty clear.
& for this person I'd reach out again without hesitation.
Selfish or not.
He reached out to me, after having so many years of hard work ripped away in an instant, without having any clue what he'd done wrong.
He was devastated, & I would reach out again for him in a heartbeat.

Lucine you have trouble recognising tongue in cheek comments.
You've referenced things which are clearly not literal.

This is evidence in response to your comment.
Something you didn't do me the courtesy of providing before you felt the need to comment on what I do & do not understand on Naruto's thread.

I have copied your above post in case it is subsequently edited, in which case I will post it here if you manipulate it.

I think this thread has had enough exposure now and am locking it now.

We do not currently intend to change the requirements of joining - both the 50 clannies and 6 month criteria have value and the numbers themselves feel about right.

The Legacy Leader issue is not something we can change sadly without binning the current CLF and starting all over again. It is not possible to pull a list of current CLF access holders or to then compare that to current CLF access appropriate for the individual. So we will not be removing Legacy Leaders.
