Most of the smaller clans have below par & inexperienced officials who generally make decisions based on what will make them look like a good official or for fame from their own members rather then making a decision on what is best for the clan. Smaller clans should take a page out of Notorious book because ultimately it will lead you to success (unfortunately for Notorious the 2 most important officials went on leave at a crucial point and haven't been able to recover since). There has never been anything wrong with spying. If your clan is being spied upon it's generally your own clans fault for not taking care of your members and ensuring their forum passwords are legit or dumb enough to accept applicants who are spies. Spying is a good motive and a fantastic way to gain information and news on another clan it should be encouraged. Not until after the end of the CWA era where PvP was nonexistent was crashing really accepted prior to that the only clan that would condone it would be Noobs Inc/Reign of Terror and any clan could easily find another clan to AC for them now it's just how the game is. If you talk garbage, allow your clan to be involved in such thing as hacking or individuals snipe you at your fights it's the best way to solve a problem. I'm assuming it;'s mainly directed at Tempted Killers who already crash whatever clan they dislike and are really the only smaller clan that PvP's frequently, if their officials had some idea about how to run the clan they probably would find it as a motive to further build their clan but unfortunately that is not the case and they just embarrass themselves when they attempt to crash other fights.
