      • Level 1 to 5 - these clans are aiming for a specific level
    • Clans can also now choose a privacy level that will make their clan public, private or hidden for those who are using the app to search for a clan they want to join
      
      • Public - anyone can find and join your clan at anytime
      • Private - anyone can find your clan, but can only request to join and must be approved by a clan leader from the Roster tab

    • Moving forward with the new system, the player who creates the clan will be assigned as the Leader
    • Leaders can then promote other members to help manage the clan
      
      • Anyone can be promoted to Leader, even non-premium players
    • Note for all existing clans we've transferred to the new system
      
      • Since the old system made any premium member an "admin" and did not track when players joined, all current admins will be assigned as Leaders in the new system
