# Adding & Removing a clan member

Expanding a clan is great, yet the **clan leader** holds an important and responsible task of *integrating new members*. They also make decisions about who should *leave the clan*. On our end, we aim to make this feature as *convenient and engaging as possible for everyone*. Hence, we suggest following this **procedure** when it comes to changes within an already registered clan:

* <mark style="background-color:purple;">**Registering new clan members**</mark>&#x20;

Any clan can accept new members, but staying within the maximum number of members limit - **50** (including the clan leader). To register new members in the clan, the leader needs to **send us an email** from the same email address used during the clan registration to Walken's official email at <clans@walken.io>.&#x20;

In the email **subject**, the clan name should be specified. In the **body** of the email, provide the following information:

1. Clan leader's User ID.
2. List of User IDs of members who wish to join the clan. *Please note, if any of the listed members are already part of another clan, they will not be added to the new clan until their previous clan leader removes them.*

* <mark style="background-color:purple;">**Removing a clan member**</mark>&#x20;

The clan leader has the authority to exclude a member from the clan. To carry out this procedure, ***send us an email*** from the same email address used during the clan registration to Walken's official email at <clans@walken.io>.&#x20;

In the email **subject**, specify the clan name. In the **body** of the email, provide the following information:

* Clan leader's User ID.
* User ID of the member who needs to be excluded from the clan.&#x20;

Upon processing the request, the Walken team will make the necessary changes to the clan's composition. *Note that the excluded member will no longer be part of your clan.*

**IMPORTANT**: Changes in the clan's composition will be made within 4-5 business days. The clan leader will be notified of all changes via email.
