​
Around 10 years ago, joining almost any clan with 20+ members meant there was always someone talking. People would joke around, ask for advice, celebrate attacks, and just hang out in chat. It felt like the clan was actually alive.
​
Now I can join a full 50-player clan, see multiple people online, and the chat is almost entirely donation requests and war notifications. Everyone is active, but hardly anyone actually talks anymore.
​
Is it just nostalgia, or have clan chats genuinely become much quieter over the years?
I downloaded Clash of Clans again after 7 years, and the first thing I did was open the Social tab. There were around 30 friends on my list and about 6 saved clans. I recognized maybe 2 or 3 clan names, and a few player names seemed familiar, but that's it. I don't remember a single conversation with any of them. I don't remember what they were like, whether we were close in-game friends, what we used to talk about nothing.
​
Then I started joining the clans one by one. Every single one was completely dead. No active players, no chat, no wars, nothing. It's such a strange feeling knowing these clans and people were once part of my daily routine, yet now I can barely remember any of it.
I run a clan with about 30 members, but 5 of those accounts are actually mine. Nobody in the clan knows this. Each account has its own personality: one is the mature leader, one is the friendly co-leader, one is a bit childish, and so on.
​
The weird part is that I regularly have conversations between my own accounts in clan chat. It started because I wanted the clan to feel more active and welcoming, but over time the personalities became so distinct that other members started interacting with them as if they were real people.
​
Now I'm at the point where I don't think I can ever reveal it without causing absolute confusion.
​
My biggest fear is this: what happens if I quit the game one day? From the clan's perspective, five different people would suddenly disappear at the same time.
​
Has anyone else accidentally created an entire cast of characters in their own clan, or have I completely lost it? 😅
