With my time in the clan squad, if someone was missing, trying to fill that gap was just obnoxious. Especially if that person was the clan admin. We just didn't do any checks, barely. 2 times a year always seemed like too little anyway, that's why this move for automation was a good move in our eyes. We can now do monthly checks with ease.

50% of players have to play 30+ games a month to get full points mind you. And honestly, if your clan consists of more than 50% absolutely inactive players, then you need to rethink your member list.

Yes, with the initial check, a lot of clans were inactive. A few of them were just a couple of points away from being active, a the majority would just need to pull their weight more to get active, and the others are just inactive. We don't want next to dead clans getting by our checks because they do the absolute bare minimum (which really was quite the minimum). This is exactly why we are giving a grace period instead of straight up removing these clans, so they can boost up their activity. Our intention is to have active clans.

Warned clans get, at minimum, 3 months (3 strike system, if they fail 3 times in a row, they die). Considering that you can get 50 points rather easily if you are active ingame plus forums, this isn't the hardest thing to achieve. We wanted to push clans into the game, and that's what this is going to do.

Yes, it doesn't. Because your clan shouldn't consist of more than 50% inactive players, not 50% either. Nowhere close.
3.
I wouldn't say it's valued low. For full points from forum activity you are up to 40% of the way to an active mark, without even touching the game. That's more than enough imo. As long as you then war a few times a month and get your players to play the game, you can pass easily.
EDIT: Even made a mistake, while if you have 30+ games as a player you are 'active', or green, you only need 5+ games to be considered as active by the check. So really, the numbers your players have to put in are easily attainable.

The major point-winner. If 50% of your members are active (5+ games per month), you will get full points.
This is stupid, I don't know any other way to say it. If you are going to do this, make it possible to have an 'inactive group' where you can put old inactive players that aren't included in the checks. It's just outright disrespectful to force clans to kick some of their most influential past members for the sake of staying alive. Some clans have a rich past, let them respect it.

The way we see it, if you want to get full points for ingame activity, then your clan should not consist of more than 50% of inactive members. Again, that's for full points, you don't need to have 50% of your players be active to get any points, just full points.
