Reward losers for performance too, then a bad match won't feel so bad, knowing you're not going to simply waste 2 hours of time and 2 xtals. Get more people to war, not everyone rushing to get into a winning clan or simply not warring if they can't.
Or you can do like everyone else get in a clan have a tough grind to like 5-6mil c/s then go to a bigger better clan... I mean if ur huge and want in a top clan why wouldn't they take you... think about it... even Monster Garage takes members... but only 10mil+ why would they take a noob into there EE... lol and yea starting clans are rough but its all about the people in the clan... gotta be active and fun and recruiting... I would prefer a clan with funny talkitive members over a stronger clan... most people feel that way... long story short work your way up the ladder like everyone else... peace
