Hi again.
Glad to see you're not getting defensive over the whole thing - a lot of time and effort is put into making sure we're not judging the wrong clan or coming to the wrong decision. To answer your question, these activity checks are a more effective way of gauging a clan's true activity levels in comparison to the old-school method of making a post publicly on your board that you'll all reply to & not be removed because of it. Clans that used to do this aren't active or even alive, they just survive due to the fact that the rules back then didn't allow us to take action against clans that gamed the system this way. Now we have an accurate and meaningful way of quantifying your activity and measuring it in respect to the size of your clan, this means that checks are far more accurate, objective and by extension fair. There's a lot of people that weigh in on these discussions and they're from all types of forum backgrounds to ensure bias is strictly at a minimum. The end goal is simply to have official clans that are actively interested in or using Toribash whether it be on the forum, in-game, IRC or any mix in-between.
