    [Glitch] Small thing, but fix! When you click attack on the second base the background color on the elixir changes color to the color on the original base. A small miss that is still not corrected.

    [idea] idk if anyone said this but the active challenge should move over the lumberjack to 1) make it more obvious what challenge we have and 2) get rid of the 4th row

    [IDEA] It would be nice if clans with all th11+ didn’t get challenges to 3 a 7, 8, and 9 town hall since we don’t get put up against those levels. We should be getting challenges that we can complete instead of ones that sit there and take up space.

    [RANT] The *Find New Members* button is USELESS (Proof)

    Welcome Friends! Today I share to you proof that the removal of global was devastating to clans from a recruiting tool.

    As many of you know already, global was taken away or "Sunset" from the game. In it's place was a brand new system for recruiting players to your clan. This feature is called Find New Members and was added to a clans profile for Elders and up to use. As many know, there is a cap of 10 invites a player can have, and with this, a ton of people will already have a full inbox because of this already.

    Clash of clans has taken note of this and addressed they plan to tweak some aspects relating to this new feature including how invitations work and have recently made an official statement in the games News Tab. Many would suggest to just remove already invited players from the filter but this would limit a players options of clans to select from. Alternatively, they should remove players with full inboxes from the list instead.

    Now the big question is, Does this new recruiting system work? The answer is a big NO. This is a bold statement to say and you might think I speak solely from pity from the fact global was removed, but I ensure you I have proof, and here is my reasoning.

    Why It Does Not Work:

    So, let me start of with the minimal time it takes to invite all 64 players from the Find New Members tab. The answer is around 8 minutes. This is due to when you find a player with a full inbox, you have to wait 5.7 seconds for the red message to disappear for the ability to invite a valid player. Clicking invite with this message up will NOT invite them.

    So what? This might be a boring process but do you actually get people to join your clan with this system? The answer is a surprising no. Recently before posting this thread, I conducted an Educational study to see JUST how many players would join your clan to how many people you invited. The results are shocking.

    WARNING: This is NOT promotional material. All Content was privately made for STUDY Purposes.

    So In the image above, I invited 560 random players from the Find New Members tab, spending over ~2 hours. The clan being tested was a very successful level 18 war clan with a 2.45 Win/Loose Ratio. After 560 valid players where invited, only two players actually joined.

    Finally, In conclusion, for every player you invite theirs only a 0.00357 chance they will join your clan. Keep in mind this is a huge variable as this particular tested clan was level 18. So is this Find New Members tab worth the time to use? Absolutely not. Bellow I try to explain why I think global was so important to the game and why this new Find New Members tab is a failure.

    Why Global Was Important:

    Global other from a social aspect, was the back bone for recruiting. The issues with picking players from a huge list is the invites become saturated and spammed until your inbox is full. The most efficient way for people to choose a clan is talking/socializing with a clan member to see if this clan will fit there needs.

    Many people are very choosy on who they join as everyone has there own needs for what a clan is. The most important aspect is socializing as this is something you are stuck with in each clan. The Find New Members Tab HAS a "Talkative" label but this is not the point. Most clans have a social environment where there are many types of groups (ex: mature, immature, clingy, open-minded, exc) and by talking to someone hands on helps you class who a clan is.

    How Global Could Have Been Fixed:

    Global had some negatives as why it was removed from the game. Some people used this as a place to target or harass others. Having constructive arguments over clans is fine and from my point encouraged but bulling others is not alright.

    So how should they have handled this? The answer is pretty simple. Most of the arguments where based on region. People did not get along with people from other regions based on a communication differential. The simple solution to this would to change the the system from being based on language to based off region.

    If you did not know, clash of clans decides what "Servers" you chatted on based off what language you have chosen from your settings. This may sound good on paper but in reality people may speek multiple languages. They would know English and as its the default for most, stay on this language setting. If you rather pick people based on region, then they would have there servers/language picked based off region. Of course an optional language setting is needed to remain in the game, but this would fix a majority of the issues in global.

    For the remaining trolls, exc, a revamp to the filter can be added. As many know, using a Russian keyboard for basic vowels will bypass the filter in all profanity words. Simply remove the option for cross keyboard/Unicode letters or add those words to the filter with an extra Unicode clone.

    By changing the basic report button from 7 reports to 3 reports, you can allow the people to help moderate your game. Keep in mind allot of people don't use the report button because "Snitching" is wrong in the eyes of many. If a player is legitimately being targeted and the person doing is "Witch Hunting" these targets, chances are he will target at least two others before calling it a day. The reason its 7 is so they can be illegitimately banned based off a few trolls falsely reporting people. This is why they have a report cap of three. By reducing the reports needed to at least three, you are still covered from that aspect.
