Do clans "suck" now because people are disappointed with standards that would have been acceptable during the superclan golden age?
Are the current standards for clans impossible to achieve for startups, and are they contributing to a degradation of the community?
Discuss. |

| standards mean garbage because usually clans set standards too high and never live up to it or clans set standards too low and try to push their limits |

"clans set standards too high and never live up to it."

I think clans suck now because they seem to be a vent for people's boiling testosterone and competitiveness.
Plus there's less people in the community. |

This is a very general topic as most clans have different standards.
it's like comparing a semi truck with a super exotic sports car there's no actual comparison |

I'll be honest, being a superclan leader myself, I have very high standards compared to other super clans. As goes for my HICOM, especially. Any ounce of incompetence I sense is just utterly off-throwing and I usually won't even considered.
Now that you've mentioned it, I do think standards being set may play a role, despite the fact that there are plenty of clans with 0 standards, hence BWE/VE/ any other clans that presently recruit with VIP and cheap methods.
But you're getting somewhere. |

The comparison is the fact that clans like WIJ have set standards for tech that other start-up groups simply cannot meet.
Elite powerclans have set standards for combat that start-up clans simply cannot meet.
That is the comparison, well established standards that improved over time, and those standards being imposed on start-up clans.

@valiant I'm the same way about my high ranks, but there aren't a lot of good high ranks anymore. |

| I still think the clan community is still salvageable if people stopped being competitive dunces and were more open to accepting an amassed amounts of people (yes even newbs). |

Yes, there is also a distinct lack of high rank heroes in the community now.
Many high ranks appear to just be over glorified normals, distinct lack of people that go above and beyond. |

"I'm the same way about my high ranks, but there aren't a lot of good high ranks anymore."
It's not really that there aren't any good ones, its that the ones with potential have focused elsewhere, such as with power clans because they set themselves standards.
Its really a matter of whose in your group and not and what your general idea is on giving autopromotions to the more competent ones. |

But it isn't low at all.
Clans are expected to have excellent tech that uses absolutely no free models, with rosters full of elite and active troops to defeat any enemy.
That is a really high standard that has evolved here. |

Exactly.
It's sort of overwhelming to starting clans or clans in development.

"rosters full of elite and active troops to defeat any enemy."
And as a result this makes clans look extremely hostile to any new person interested in them.

Some people would even argue that the days of square walls and carbines were better than the days now.
Originally the concepts of great tech and building development were used to pull more members into the clan, and attract more people to join.
It's evolved to the point where the tech and building development becomes too "good" for people to join, and clans end up secluding their member base in order to encourage an elite community, which is not sustainable and for some people it is not enjoyable.
Angles on that? |
