So I was thinking about different things relating to clan upgrades.

We already have the option to upgrade to a cartel, 500k, so why not other upgrades?

1. CLTS (clan tell secret) for 500k
2. PROJECTS command available for 500k?
3. Be able to upgrade cartel slots for an additional cost? 500k first time, 1000k second, 1500k third?
4. Let clans be re-ordered on the "clan list" for a credit or gold cost?
5. Allow clans to have an automatic message for a credit or gold cost (I'm thinking this would be good for lets say Hallifax clans, which would regularly send out propaganda messages when people are around)
6. Be able to edit newsroom posts for the clan for 700k?
7. Let clans with gold in banks be able to pay for cartel fees for instance automatically per private entry (You can set the option on or off. It will fail if there is less than 5k in the bank)
8. Let clans be linked to manses for a set amount of gold.
9. If above is happens, then let post office mail be customized to the clan's preference for a set amount of credits
10. If clans and manses are linked, well, a host of different options would be available as well, so add on to the list please

It would be great to be able to deed manses to private clans and allow the clan leader commands similar to stewards, to allow them to reassign manse owners as needed.

I'd say that the extra channel should be half the price of the clan itself
Project categories must currently be entered and managed by an admin directly, I believe, that might get messy.
I don't think there will ever be a change to newsboards for clans, that's the downside of getting a used clan on purpose, so that you have to either pony up for the gold sink or get all these things you don't want.
Somehow linking clans to personal news rooms would be kind of cool.
