So, We all know that when you implement clan fees people have to make the effort to pay them. Well I propose a feature that can be set By clan Leaders to acts as a form of TOS for the clan. For instance when Joining a site you are generally required to check a box that says something along the lines of "By creating an account you are agreeing to abide by all of so and so's terms and conditions. HOWEVER, Instead of terms and conditions when someone goes to join it pops up with something like "this clan requires a monthly renewal fee of 250SB, Do you still wish to join?" The feature WILL NOT Automatically remove SB from your Account it will simply create a membership agreement that sends out a monthly renewal fee notice on the 1st(or whatever day the clan leader sets) to each current clan member. Once you sign up you will begin a running balance due to the clan. from the time the message is send to say 14 Days you can pay this. IF it is NOT Paid, the clan leader gets a notice saying "these clan members have not paid membership fees in 14 days, If you would like to lock their memberships until fees are paid please do so from the clan page." Once someone is locked they will be "blocked" in sorts from posting/viewing clan events including clan hoard/in clan raffles/forum contests Etc. in order to unlock themselves they have to go to the clan and pay their"outstanding balance" to do so there would be 2 Buttons"Pay all Fees" or Apply X amount to your balance" for those who need to make payments. the locked portion would only apply to the fee amount that is overdue.During this time members will also be locked into clan membership meaning they cant leave until they pay the balance and unlock themselves. Like Paying for a product. You can't take something from a store without paying for it. I think this feature would make it easier to keep track of active members and members who are only there to take what they can get. Like working for free. you can't buy nice rewards for the clan if you don't have the funds. Edit: If no support Please post why :D Edit: Due to some awesome suggestions, In Addition to there being restrictions on clan members who don't pay fees. Clan Fee amount would need to be confirmed by the clan Owner once every 30 days and once confirmed could not be changed for 30 Days at which time the new confirmation would be required. In addition members who have locked accounts would be Charged the current rate of the month of which their account was locked only. once the rate was changed their outstanding balance would remain locked without interest. Once paid A message would Appear stating something along the lines of "Thank you for contributing your fees to the clan bank, Membership fees may have changed in the last 30 days, Would you like to stay in this clan> (Yes/No). Please understand that clicking yes means you adhere to all clan rules and all new fees must be paid before you may leave." |

That's why you can make payments. There is absolutely no way someone can never have SB if they are exploring and battling. Not to mention if you are hunting you can fully feed your lions and sell the extra food. 0 players like this post! Like? |

Newbies, me, those who are too lazy to Explore (also me), those without enough time on their hands, etc. It have an option to have no SB charged to members and only admins, or maybe no one has to pay anything. 0 players like this post! Like? |

Clan fees are set by the owner of the clan. if the owner of the clan does not set one, there is no fee. As for the 1st comment, If you can't afford to pay an SB fee every month don't join a clan that has one lol. Why should certain members be singled out and not others. That is why there is a clan description because they tell you if there is a fee. If you choose to join you are agreeing to pay it. Which, As stated above is why it would have a notification. in case the description does not say there is. 0 players like this post! Like? |

I still just don't feel like it would work out...Maybe the mods would add a: 'This clan has a (price) monthly fee.'? 0 players like this post! Like? |

possibly, I mean we don't even know if it will be accepted and added to the game so If they do and something is not working out Im sure people will voice their opinion and a solution will be decided :D 0 players like this post! Like? |

...would there be interest on this? For example, if a clan has a fee of 10sb and I didn't pay it for like two years, would I have to pay 240sb for all of the months I missed, or just the 10sb? Also, there would be a really easy way to exploit this :/ if a Clan's membership fees are set to 2sb and it's a really nice Clan that gives out free event applicators and muties to everyone daily so people will want to join but the leader is really underhanded and horrible, they can set the membership fee to 10,000sb or something ridiculous like that on the day that people have to pay the fee, so they would be locked into the Clan with no way to get out of it without paying an outrageously high bail price that they might not be able to afford, especially if they really like the Clan and do want to keep getting free muties and event applicators. Another way to kind of exploit this would be to leave the Clan the day before the membership fee had to be paid and then rejoin after it resets to avoid having to pay anything. (This would be possible in bigger Clans where a lot of people want to join; admins/owner might just click 'accept all' and not realize the same person is applying for membership over and over again to get out of paying anything. It can also happen in smaller Clans but it will be noticed faster, as there's no way to tell when someone is leaving the Clan and the leader might not remember who it was who wanted to join the Clan until they have rejoined/eluded payment multiple times over. ..A lot of failsafes should be added to make sure those things can't happen. Support the overall idea, by the way :P 0 players like this post! Like? |
