Apparently in the works, before we closed, was the talk of potentially making clan status xp free. There will still need to be a vote to raise or lower, but the cost would be free to do so. No changes would be made to covenant or cult status.
Why should it be free? It's just a yay go us respect in the clan... Why should it not be free? Because it is now tied to the city status calculations.. (but will still be limited to votes and the group status rules and time periods of waiting in between trying to raise it)
Thoughts?
As Per: 7/7/15 POLICY Based on the status poll we've determined that Clan Status is currently very inaccurate while Covenant status is reasonably accurate. Because of that we've decided to make Clan Status free in order to encourage characters to raise it more often. All current clan status will be refunded and Chargen will be changed so that you can choose to start with either Clan 0 or Clan 1 at no cost.

This is not something that was 'in the works'. It had been done and all xp had already been refunded for all clan statuses. It was changed because no one would buy clan status, because it was generally viewed as a waste.

I think it should be free. Poll the clans, see how much they think each character should have? Average it out including what it is currently to adjust for thought of before and thought of now.
If it needs to be paid for, I'll never pay for it. Sure you can use the dice on occasion but meh...

I, too, think it should be free.

I have been in places where both Clan, Covenant, and City status is free on the grounds that it is player decided any ways.

@greg and bap, staff had no clue that it had already been done, I just happened to find that tidbit on the old wiki and was curious about it. We'll have to go through and audit everyone's xp spends because yes, we were charging for all status raises
