Would very much like this - if possible. Especially the guest knocking/awaiting approval, so long as the alert for this is not overly intrusive (no popups). RSC - Gone, but never forgotten.

while i like the idea, i have to agree with samurai, i would rather see more important things such as a citadel expansion or the clan permissions rewrite.


Community safety is far more important to me than all of that. Thank you for your opinion though =)

No support. Completely unnecessary. We already have the option to kick/ban them, that's enough. I am in favor of previously discussed whitelists, but that is altogether different than what you are suggesting.

They would do the damage to the atmosphere of the Clan before they get kicked. Even the kick message is very unpleasant in itself. Gives a clear and true feel that there is issues going on in that Clan. That's not good for the health of the Clan to me, nor is it peaceful (and no, I won't suggest to disable guesting completely, because it is a bad restricting move. The guesting system should have a wider diverse of options than it currently does).

Anyway, considering your emphasizing's; I think we can only come in terms of agreeing to disagree =) . Thank you for your input.

Support in principle.

We have recently stopped broadcast messages when guests enter and leave which has become especially annoying since players now auto rejoin the last guested in cc. This in turn is difficult as we now revert to officers noticing who is guesting.

With this, I would like to see the clan ban list size increased as, with the number it currently allows, you have to be very economical with its use.

Would see some usefulness in blocking players from guesting based on the clan they are in.

As for F2P I would also find this hard as when we answer LFC posts we will sometimes invite F2P persons if they are intending to get membership soon.

Also impossible to have probably but blocking players who have ban meters into the red would be wonderful..... just wishful thinking there.

And also I agree Lucine, that sometimes damage is done as soon as a guest puts something into the cc, and then the attempting to kick/ban etc causes ripples.

We have well known "Friends" of our clan who are in other clans and since we are open and friendly and do not poach people from other clans, they are welcome to guest.

However we do have instances of guests joining who then want to cause trouble for one of our members.

Since you can't tell how someone is going to be until they have "spoken" it is always damage control for bad guests and at a minimum, being on alert for the officers who are monitoring the cc at the time. It would be wonderful to not have to stop guests from entering or talking sometimes as we really only revert to this in cases of continued problems.

Also, I believe that the RS community is worthwhile putting development time into, which includes supporting people who strive to make drama free zones possible. This game isn't just for rebellious youngsters who find trolling very amusing.
