looks ok.......dont know if it would be used that much...but...you never know.

on the contrary...it would solve the problem for players asking for info on a clan...no more "how do I join XXXX clan?" or many of the endless questions such fools ask. You just type the command and boom, instant info.

For Clan leaders that have to answer the same questions over and over and over and over and over and over and over.

This would be a godsend.

I guess....theres the new /chatfilter command...and not many people are asking to get in my clan...because its small and not many newb greys know about it...but...i can see how it would be useful for golds with huge clans having people constantly asking to join the clan.

i'm confused on how chatfilter relates to this...it doesn't solve any problems except being able to ignore others (which WAS a problem, but isn't the one being addressed it). I think ur missing the point on what this does...it doesn't ignore players, it makes it so that they can easily access information on whatever clan they choose.

If not man ppl are asking to get into ur clan..don't u think a command like this where they could find info easily about ur clan would help that?

[drakonfire]

personally i like this idea, it would indeed help clan leaders who have to answer the same silly questions over and over... and over again

Excellent idea, but perhaps not at the top of the To Do list. I'd rather have a new unit or even the /ignore [username] command before this.

New units take TONS of development time and testing.
This function is already in place with the /welcome msg.
Basically the programmers would just create a new table, attach it to the command and viola(!) completed. This is a suggestion that would take minimal effort to enact.

Afro, can I get this in your suggestion list?
