And yes, you're prioritising the interests of the clan hopper subsection over the interests of anti clan hoppers. Don't try and act like you're looking at the broader community picture when your solution only serves to protect the interests of the clan hopper section of our community.
...because the suggestion itself can be an useful tool without the community being able to dig into every community member's past on a whim. I can't tell if you're arguing with the sole intent of being purposefully negligent of that or not.

hahaha yeah that's cool

Likely an incorrect assumption.

...but it'd still be a useful tool with the opt-in/opt-out option. My solution to the problem allows for users to selectively show their clan history to the public and allows them to opt-out if the ever feel the need to. If a clan leader wants to see a full documentation of a person's clan history, all they have to do is:

Proposed fix for clan leaders: make it mandatory for your applicants to show you their clan history with their application if you feel so strongly about seeing their clan history. If they don't, deny their application into your clan. Simple.

I'm not here arguing for bad (or pointless) ideas, I'm here to argue against them.
and:
- this is an actual solution.
- it may not be as invasive as the original suggestion, but it allows for clan leaders to get access to a person's clan history by literally requesting that they opt-in.
again, think of the community as a whole: there are people (regardless of whether or not they're a clan hopper)
who are going to want their privacy, and implementing this suggestion without an opt-out service is neglecting that fact.
