Please lock the clan feed to clan members only.

It is completely useless for us because of all the, "my KDR is this and I'm good please add me" messages. Even if we put a clan message saying we aren't recruiting, they still post. As soon as a clan member post something, It is lost 5 minutes later due to new messages. It may not be a problem for all clans but it is for us. Maybe add a request invite button, with the ability to lock it when you aren't recruiting would be a nice addition down the road too. Thanks.
I would like to let you know that in the "Manage Clans" page there is a "Privacy" tab click that and check "Only members Can View Feed" i hope this helps.
this ...
lol i love when people dont explor the website and they are so blind to fuiger **** out
You can also hide the roster as well as the feed.
I am the leader of the clan that k20a3si is talking about.
I have used both the Privacy options.
The results -

I could go on and on. There are 48 entries from non-members on the 28th alone.
The current Privacy options are of no help at all.
12 more so far today.
its because they are using the Xbox app maybe and apparently the xbox app doesn't have the prvacy setting added to it either. for now just ignore it and have everyone message you thats in your clan if they have anything to say.
We're on PS3.
Can I join your clan? What's your clan so I can post on your feed?
only kidding...
Ha!
No seriously...
Could you please PM us your Gamertag/SEN ID and the link to your Clan so we can investigate?
If any other users are affected with the Clan privacy settings not functioning correctly, please PM us as well.

Thank You for responding.
I have sent the requested information via PM to you.
Please take note - It doesn't seem to me that this is an issue with the Clan privacy settings not functioning correctly. The current settings do not say anything about 'blocking posts', just preventing them from being read.
I don't think it's a case of a current function not working, it's a case of there not being a needed fuction.
Thanks again, I look forward to your response.
26 for the 29th so far.
Im the support clan leader for my clan. ( not actually clan leader just help out via pc.) The privacy function just makes it so they can't see what they're posting. They can still spam the crap out of your clan feed and nothing can be done about it. You can report it as spam but that doesn't help out. THe clan feed is a important tool to communicate with clan members in general. They must add a feature so we can communicate with 100 clan members. Maybe a messaging app added to xbox? It won't happen but it would be nice.
21 so far for the 1st.
12 so far for the 2nd.
Up to 25 for the 2nd.
Okay, now I really am curious... what's your clan name? Why do you have that many people searching for your clan?
I get about 2-3 messages on xbox live every 1-2 days, but 25 in 1 day is ridiculous.
If you don't want to post it here, message me on live (MoJoCU).
No I don't want to join, I'm leader of a clan with ~96 members.
Not on xbox. Play on PS3.
96 members, Level 23 and clan name is near the beginning of the alphabet.
I also end up with 10 to 15 messages and around 5 friend requests each day in my PSN mailbox.
I've gone as far as having our clan message of the day say 'We are NOT RECRUITING. PLEASE do not post applications here.'
Doesn't help.
I really believe they need to give us a 'Only Clan Members Can Post To The Feed' option.
41 so far for the 3rd.
I'm going to post the count every day til Beachhead or Elite Help respond.
I'd also like the ability to delete posts within our clan feed as clan leader.
Your thoughts?
Being able to delete the posts would be a help but preventing them would be better.
32 for the 4th.
20 for the 5th so far.
I would like to petition for this. Almost 100 posts of pure spam in clan feed. Its completely annoying.
I did not count them one by one but a good estimate is 1,100 pieces of spam on my clans feed.
Finished with 21 pieces of 'invite me please, my kdr is 4.21 and I never lose' spam on the 5th.
6 for the 6th so far.
I agree, I gave up on using Clan Feed (well I do use it but I don't rely on it) and instead started a Facebook Group and set it to Closed.
I can organise Events like Clan Training Sessions and Matches, Keep Track of Players Easier and it also Informs members when I posted something, it's really everything you Need but don't have in Elite. I also use Docs to list Clan Rules and any Tips and Tricks I pick up, like how to dodge a Bouncing Betty or Survive an IMS.
The only problem is FB gives out people's real names but for some of my members they just created another account with their PSN name instead of theeir Real name, the only other problem is some embers don't join the FB group, but that just means they have to rely on Feed, which as you rightly said, is full of Invites and other Junk.
Anyway hope this helps, and hopefully Beachead will one day realise that a Single Clan Feed is just pointless and do something better.
Good suggestion Munchman.
Unfortunantly, not real helpful for my clan. We're a bunch of players in their 30's, 40's and 50's.
Not very many FB'ers in this group!
I can definantly see where your idea would be helpful to many other clans. Thanks.
I really want the option of blocking non-clan members from posting on our feed.
10 for the 6th so far.
Another way to Go is to go to a Site that Hosts Free Forums, I used to use those For my Linkshell (Clan) in Final Fantasy XI, I could do a Fair bit, I chose FB coz I thought most of my Clan would be on FB and therefore would join, but as it is I might be Ditching the FB and setting up on another Forum Site the one I used to be on was an Italian Site, It wasn't easy to begin with but it just took a bit of deductive guess work (as in if there are four choices one is usally Yes and another No, so then I just gotta think what would the other two be and work from there), but there should be plenty of English ones now.
The Best thing about Forums is you have more control then with FB as well, which is why I'm looking at switching, in the end there are actually a lot better choices then Elite, there is Blog Sites, Forums, FB, Twitter (I think, I tried Twitter but I coulnd't make heads nor tails of it) and if your really tfeeling adventurous you could start a whole new Site, course it will mean you wil have to inform your Clan, but that is sorta easy coz all i did was set my clan Message to "Join FB Group (insert Group name) now, please!" and then most came over.
Anyway before I make this message any longer while I agree with the Original Poster about having a Lock, I think overall Elite needs a Complete Overhaul as I have everything from Clan Vids to Clan Training to Clan Advice and Rules and Right now a single Feed is Useless for everything except Invites... and while I only have 33 members I still have another problem of I get some people who are like Invite me, then (I assume 2 hours later) why won't you invite me, then are you there?, then they write a message saying I don't care about them and that i should get knotted, or then when I do invite them they join for about a day then Leave, or don't bother to ever accept.
Crap I did make it longer...
21 spams for the 6th.
13 so far for 7th.
Beachhead - Thank You for responding. I hope your able to make some changes. I appreciate you listening to my concern.
Now I can stop posting these counts!
Power to the People!!!

BTW i started a Thread asking Beachhead to Work with us clan Leaders to Improve Elite, here is the Link:
http://community.callofduty.com/message/205476241#205476241
Also I hope I didn't overstep my boundaries by putting your names in the mesage, I'm just trying to show Beachhead we need real Improvements to Elite, I mean they have done well with having usgot o Clan instead of Groups and the Rearrangement of Clan Page were a good Start but so much more is Needed and I feel that for many it's been 5 months and they only ever seem to fix things if poeple complain enough, I think they need ot see we in the community are ready to start working with Beachhead to start getting things we need into Elite (I eman I don't mind having all that Info on the Lan Ops we were in, ubt really it is not really something that I needed, it's just nice to have.
