Do you think new clans are rushingly made and not meant to have long term loyal members? Making a new clan in this time is really really hard, i haven't seen a new clan becoming a strong force for a while. Only clan i can think of was Syndicate but we all know how long this lasted, i think that if you want to build a new clan in this time you need alot of members to start with who are dedicated + loyal. Clans with 20 people max start won't survive as we have seen several times by now. Do you suspect more smaller/new clans to look to merge? I think alot of clans have to merge to stay alive, its worth a try but most of the time it will end up as a fail. Do you think the merges are built to last or just a short burst of life? Most of the time a merge won't work, in the start you only see the positive things about it but that will change after a while if there are coming intern issues. So yea a short burst of life.
