I am so sick of being dragged in the forum for misunderstandings, so I'm going to post this myself publicly before someone else decides to twist and turn it into a bad thing.

I have started (and will continue) to build alts to keep my clans safe.
The alts will be in either Dragonborn [sadar] or Ancient Specters [vaalor] and will soon have the rank Kats Meow, so there is no confusion for anyone. Those will be mine, I am not hiding them, and I reserve the right to play them, by the rules, anytime I want.

I recommend all clan leaders do the same. As long as you always have 41% control of the toons in a clan, there is a 0% chance you can have anyone steal it from you. You are safest if you call the vote every month as soon as you see the 7 days option open up. Once you have 41%+, get a screen shot, so you can be sure no one (and no bug) can change the leader behind your back. Sadly it means cutting a possible 50 person clan into a 29 person clan, but that is what I feel we need to do to protect ourselves from cheaters; unless votes get turned off completely.

I hope I am the last person to ever suffer a clan crown theft, and I cannot thank the Guards and Dreidan enough for doing what was right.
Please leaders, keep your clans safe. I know it was a lot of work for the investigation and I hope no one ever needs to go through it again.

For my personal story about the clans I am in:
The Fallen
Is my home, as a player, not a leader. Kingmp is an amazing leader and someone I am so grateful to have met. He keeps me sane and calm even amongst all the forum stupidity. In return, I care for the book keeping and sydian splitting, and I do believe I am worth having around, even when I need my breaks
Inferno Legacy
I, today, turned IL over to Lord Bear because it was never my intention of keeping an empty clan (contrary to the disgusting accusations by others) and he was originally in the clan before I ever was, so it seemed the next best plan to ant not coming back. I no longer have anything to do with it, so that ends that.
Ancient Specters
Ant1985 will be helping make AS active unless he too returns to IL (he returned too late, I already made the deal with Bear and I don't break my deals). What ant & bear end up doing is between them, not my business. The current AS leader, Whisper will give the crown to Kitty when we're ready if we do decide to make it active again. There will not be any vote needed. I have invested many reals in that clan and no one should ever question who it belongs to or try to take it from me by vote. Anyone who doesn't like how I run it can leave.
Dragonborn
DB is my home-away-from-home when I need to take a break from clan work at The Fallen. I have invested many reals in that clan and no one should ever question who it belongs to or try to take it from me by vote. Anyone who doesn't like how I run it can leave.

These are acceptable, and legal, things to do with clans and should no longer be discussed in any negative way.

And for the record - At no point did I ever call a vote to take a clan. AS, IL, and DB were all given to me by players who no longer wanted to lead clans. Once the crown is handed over willingly, it becomes MY CLAN, all leaders involved knew this before changing leadership and all other players should have kept their unnecessary drama about it to themselves. If you have a problem with how I run my clans; too bad, so sad, don't join them. Until I break rules, you have no right to judge how I play.

Sorry for the long post. I shouldn't need to write this at all, but since certain people just WON'T STOP picking on me, I felt it was time to write out my own words that no one else can delete.

Best of Luck to all.
