So I was being accused of removing the fun from the clan when I set the rules of contributing to clan points. It is just a game but from this game I learn that there are various type of personalities and some of them are not team players or fit to be in the society if this is their attitude in real life scenarios. The clan could only take in 40 players and it has a total of 10 levels. To reach those levels we need to accumulate clan points which can be done by playing 1 world boss using 2 training tickets and that would be 1 point, winning 12games /day to earn 2 points and alternatively purchasing clan points using gems (this would be the most expensive way which I have never asked any members to use this method). I do acknowledge that I may not be the oldest member of the clan but as the subclan master, I have to foresee that the clan moves forward and I do that by moderating the clan points contributed by each member.
I have been kind enough to remind members about the clan point but most of them took it for granted. We are stuck at level 7 for almost 2 years. I was invited to join a level 10 clan but I am not going to leave this clan again for the second time as it is after all dear to me. I believed it was also dear to the few illogical players so they were really mad at me for removing them. Oh well, they were rude and so resistant to earning clan points. The most absurd argument was them being "loyal members of the clan", so what is loyalty? does that mean staying in the clan and not doing anything? A good analogy is couples staying in a marriage but not doing anything for the marriage, yet want the status of being married to enjoy the perks offered to married people? (Okay I can't think of any perks unless some government gives incentives if the couples have children). Is this loyalty?
I was cautious in removing people from the clan as it may be clan master's friend but I noted that clan master was online and doesn't seem to care about the removal of 2 "loyal" members for their rudeness. The 3rd person is still in the clan and I would not hesitate to remove him if he makes so much of fuss. Good luck to them finding a clan that will take in all 3 of them and tolerate their dormancy. Too bad I am not easily provoked by a "1 vs 1" offer and to take them in if I lost. I know my strength and their capabilities, why do I need to make fun of myself and give them a chance to brag?
All these while I have been removing new members who are inactive and not contributing and for once it felt good to remove old "loyal" members who are not contributing. One of the members was sensible enough to inform me that he would be away for 2 weeks and not to remove him from clan. This is the kind of people the clan needs.
