I'm not sure if folks check in here for clan purposes or not, since this thread seems pretty dead lately, but I'll give it a shot!
I've got a clan - Finney (not to be confused with similarly named 'clan finney')- that currently has no member other than me. Truthfully, there have only ever been 4 other members and they're usually pretty short-lived. I've been struggling to recruit members at all and definitely haven't found active, English speakers. I've managed to make it up to Level 9, primarily on my own (though most of Level 7 was traversed with the help of 2 other players who have since moved on).
I at least open the app daily (though there have been a few days I haven't accomplished much of note). I haven't missed signing up for a clan event since clan activity became available to me. The only rule I've adopted over time is that resource requests are not honored/fulfilled until someone has participated in at least one clan event. (The first joiner taught me a lesson, as they were a member long enough to request & receive enchantment materials and then moved on; I know now that's not terribly uncommon.)
I imagine that this League 1, Level 9 clan isn't the most attractive to players. And it would certainly make sense to disband it and move on to a more established/active clan elsewhere. But there's some pride associate with this... I've come so far largely on my own! I'd love to share the fruits of those labors with other, potentially newer folks who might have trouble in the very active/competive clans. I play for fun, not like it's my job. And I'd like to join with others who feel the same. And it would be nice if we could pool resources and work together.
So that's it - my soft sales pitch. If you're looking for a place, and you'd like to paticipate in events in a low-pressure environment, I'd be happy to have you!
