I'm referring to the "I'm new and started a clan, join me and we will kill everyone lol!" variety of clans. One way to eliminate this is by only allowing silver and gold members to start a clan. Or just gold, or whatever.
This would be an added "bonus" of becoming a member and would greatly restrict the number of people who can make a clan.
Perhaps it's too restrictive, but I thought I'd put this idea out there...

So would that mean that I'd have to pay money or pass leadership of my clan to somebody else? A better way to solve the noob problem would just be have a time and/or level requirement to start a new clan.
Clans are too big a part of the game to hold them hostage to donations.

Yeah a level requirement would be better.

I agree. Perhaps all the members would have to be above some level for the clan to be active.

No, Mog, there's no problem with level 1 people JOINING clans, they just aren't allowed to start them. In fact, joining a decent clan is the best way for new players to learn quickly...we shouldn't discourage clans from taking them in by 'deactivating' a clan should they suddenly decide to take in a 1:1 player (well, you did say ALL the members would have to be a certain level)

As Raptor hasn't spoken for himself...I will. What about the poor Newbie Training Clan? 
Won't it need at least an exemption, or a different approach to all this?

Make the minimum requirement a campaign rank of 40 (to start a clan - no requirements to join an existing one). This means a player has done well in there first 3 games (or has played 5 or 6 campaigns and has done average) OR a minimum battle level of ??. I don't know what should be put for a min battle level - one of the upper level battlers should specify a level that would show a level of competency in the game (not elite skills, just competent) along with a reasonable amount of play time/experience.

camp level not clan,
there is no clan battles, only clan campaigns, and making camp level 40 takes longer time.

Actually, there's something far better for this, but alas it needs Req to either automate it or have time. We need a clean out of the 3-players-or-less clans

I would say a campaign level of 20 or or more to start a clan, no battle level requirements. No requirements to join, just to start, thanks Sage.
If we had experienced players starting clans we would probably keep more players around, too. They wouldn't start a clan, have no fun and leave the game.

So it seems no one liked the pay to own clan idea 
It was just an idea to throw out there, but I'm also fine with a level requirement. There just needs to be SOME way to limit who can make a clan, though NOT who can join a clan.

Done!
You must be Campaign Level 20 or above to create a new Clan.

heh
i'm end just one camp, win it and have lev 20 so i think it should be higher level needed to create a clan.
* docents thinks : there is also possibility that almighty Req made it especially to me?
for that instance light some incenses, and make ritual dance*
