The VOID controversy, The Sky Clan of ROBLOX, and the recent TGI problem.
What do all of these things have in common? They all cause drama.
Before you attack me for possibly insulting your favourite clan, just hear me out. Countless times, people outside of the clan world have told me, "I don't like clans, because the clan world is dying."
To begin with, the word dying means "gradually ceasing to exist or function; in decline and about to disappear.". Is the clan world gradually ceasing to exist? Sure, wars may start to deteriorate in purpose (as no clear winner is ever decided), but wars aren't a critical part of the clan world.
Groups which host other events other than the generic "wars, trainings and raids" and have more features are the groups that can function without them. A good example of a group that would still function without the war is the Vaktovian Empire - with events such as the winter and summer games, it could still function as a roleplaying group AND teach players how to combat against others, which is one of the fundamental purposes of a group. People believe that wars are the only part of the clan world. Quite clearly, they aren't.
Another popular argument that i've heard in the past year or so is that "a strong group will beat all the groups and kill them so the clan world dies." - the problem with this argument is that new clans are created almost every week. Not all of them may function, but at least ONE clan can start functioning every month if the right amount of preparation is applied to it. Groups may die, but along with that new groups are created - and some may still follow the customs used by those dead groups.
Some say that because the site administration does not apply updates to clans, it will eventually die. Let me give you an example of a community which only benefits on new releases every once in a while - the community of trading. They only received ONE new site feature, being trading, yet they still manage to function. You may argue that they receive new items, but we receive new groups - and we've received arguably several clan oriented updates or updates that help groups (Such as group payouts, group items, group places, the allies tab, etc.)
The clan community has etched itself into becoming a part of ROBLOX which could only die if the groups feature as a whole was removed. Groups could function without this forum (As seen with SEVERAL groups/the guild community functioning without constantly posting on here and declaring their wars on this forum), and some could function without wars (Other examples being Alpha Authority and Concord of Exiles - if it lasts this time 'round).
As long as the groups feature exists, so will the clan world.
-Mont. |

| They'll be useful, but we will never NEED those features. |

I mostly agree, but wars ARE a big part of clans. Personally, one of the main reasons I mostly do clan-related stuff on ROBLOX is because of wars, defenses, battles and all that stuff, since it is the most fun for me in the clan world.

| Wars are a large part of clans, but they can still function without them. |

@Monetori, somehow. Me, including thousands of other people would quit clans if wars would cease to exist. That is my opinion, at least.

| Not all clans are centered around war - the clans that aren't are the ones that could still thrive without war. |
