Didn't find any general wishlists, so here's mine (you can add your thoughts below in comments): Push notifications. The most essential feature that should've been on board from the very start. If you don't live in your city it's very difficult to provide clubmates with immediate help when they need some resources or goods. The guys have to wait for hours until someone gets back into the game and notices the little chat icon over the Club Island. Very rudimentary. Direct stuff sending. If a clubmate asks for some goods in order to complete a task, all you can do now is put required items to the Trade Depot and drop a message to the chat. It would be enough, if this stuff couldn't be grabbed by another clubmate without any notice. The most annoying thing about this is that you can't tell who's the rat to kick it from the club. Longer messages with emoji support. 150 symbols per message isn't quite enough. I'd raise the limit and add emoji support. (ADDED) Chat filters revision. Many ordinary words are 'encoded' by #@$%@$@! combinations by no reason. (ADDED) Increase the club members number limit. That speaks for itself. I think that's all we definitely need right now to get clubs as a real part of the game. But maybe I've missed something else?

Only thing I'd add to this is concerning chat. The chat filters out a lot of words. On first glance you'd think i was a sailor. To give examples tho.. 'gotta,' 'wood,' 'facebook,' -all of these words and other generic g-rated words are being filtered out and replaced with $@#^. It's f***ing annoying. That one was done on purpose.

I as well put in a suggestion that we be able to chat from mayor club regardless what city we are visiting/in.I like the idea of push notifications. I ask for help and hours later someone might respond. Also I suggest a last login stamp shown for each member so inactives can be booted, as mayor's club benefit is only trading without having to be Facebook friends.Lastly the word filter is crazy. Filtering way too much like: wood, got, full. Just to mention a few.

I agree with most of your list.Now that we have these club challenges, the developers need to consider the prizes, if they were to increase the amount of possible members per club. Naturally, if you can have a hundred members, the club challenges would become that much easier to achieve.Also, you can’t really control a hundred members. I doubt there are really that many players who want clubs to be that big. Sure, you might get stuff more quickly, but the chat would be chaotic, people asking and answering all the time. The chat interface would need to be a lot better.Of course, everyone can decide themselves, what will be the size of their club - or what kind of club they want to join in.The main problem, as many here have already mentioned, is the securing of the trades. At the moment, anyone in the club can just snatch the item that was meant for someone else.I wonder how hard it would be to add a tag of some kind to the item, when you put it into the depot. A tag like ”to Sunshine Valley”. So, when you put an item in for sale, you could tap ”Private sale” and then you would get a list of all your friends, all your club members - and perhaps you could choose as many of them as you want. Surely that’s not impossible to do?And really, the chat could be so much better in so many ways. At the moment it’s slow and somehow very difficult to use.And you really need to be able to toggle the whole censoring on and off. I don’t mind a few curse words every now and then - the censoring is the same as in all American tv shows, it just makes everything harder to follow. If you want all the members to ”be civilized”, found your own damn club or ask for ”manners”. Or toggle the censoring on. They are just words, they don’t have any magic powers - even if you would try to give them some. Just grow up, people!It would be nice, if you could enter the club, no matter what city you’re in. That's just one of dozens of ways this whole game could be faster and more intuitive. I’m still waiting for them to remove that useless slow flyover whenever I visit a new city or get back to my own. And in what year can I fast forward the catastrophes?Finally, notifications might not be such a bad idea - although I myself have turned off almost all the notifications of almost all my apps over the years. :-)

I put in a suggestion to add a send to button to the mayor's club to address the same issues you raised. As a (hopefully) temp fix, I try to not advertise anything so I know the club members have first pick. Then there IS that issue with members taking stuff intended for others. Do you have any idea if TPTB respond?

Oh, you've got that too? I thought it's a bug or something. Agree, some words are 'encoded' by no reason.

Ok in regards to members taking items you should note that only club members with their names take said items. The reason you are losing items is that you have friends from putting in your add me code and they are the ones taking the items as this has happened to me when I posted for club members.
In my club we only post when the members are on and then tell them they have 1hour to collect the items requested. We are a multi national club with Aussies, Canadian , Indian, Phillipines and Americans so I don’t actually see or speak much to them becoz of the time zones. I pass on requested items for someone to pass on to those I don’t see online.
if you need to join a more active club do a search for different clubs that are active but DON’T join a war club as there are too many cheats in them.
look for a no-war club!
hope this explains your missing items
