As many of you may have noticed, war clans have a problem right now. Namely, their uniforms. Free users currently have no real way to pay for a group uniform.
So, how about this: Let groups set pieces of clothing as "uniforms." Any piece of clothing uploaded and assigned as a group's "uniform" are given to the users that join the group for free, and are taken away from the users upon leaving the group or being removed for other reasons.
Additionally, certain ranks within a group could even be assigned their own pools of uniforms.
"Uniforms" would only consist of assets that can be created by the users--namely, shirts, pants, and t-shirts. |

1. people would abuse it, especially obc where they could have limitless "uniforms"
2. there would be no point of buying the clothes
3. no income for the group, many smaller groups use the uniforms as a source of income, without it they would have as much money to use for ads etc

This would mean uniformity, hence why they're called "uniforms", which looks cool in itself already, especially regarding the quality of some creations! |

1. There could be a fee for adding items to a uniform pool, or there could be a hard limit to the number of "uniform" items per rank.
2. This is primarily a workaround for recruits who can't buy the clothes without the group payouts anyways.
3. Again, workaround for people to incur a neutral value instead of a net loss per recruit. The group would be free to have the same outfit for the regular price that isn't taken away upon leaving the group, for instance. Or just not put the clothes in the "uniform" pool at all. It'd be optional. |

1: Yet again OBC accounts can upload their own clothing for free, and in having limitless uniforms in the group, a member has to remain in the group for the uniform to be used, if they leave its removed from their inventory.
2: They can't buy them now anyway, there's no way for NBCs to purchase.
3: Donations shirts could be set up for members who wish to contribute to the group, as well as rank incentives. And the lack of an NBC market means they wouldn't earn much anyway. |

ROBLOX, you've been screwing groups.
Give us some love.

Q: What if my group's uniform is made by a contractor who wants the profits for the uniform? Couldn't I swindle them by adding the item to a "uniform" for free?
A: No. Only items uploaded by the group (as in, in the "group store") could be marked as being in a "uniform." For contractors, the uniform could either: a. be sold for the normal price in their inventory and group payouts given to other clan members on a by-purchase basis, or b. the contractor should be paid differently, perhaps via a one-time commission fee or the group could give them payouts over time. |

SOLUTION: make a script that puts a uniform on group members as soon as they enter a clan-related place. |

"SOLUTION: make a script that puts a uniform on group members as soon as they enter a clan-related place."
What if you go to a different clan related place? You lose the clothing, plus your group lacks uniformity on the group page level, not at all aiding your groups growth. "Oh they're just a bunch of noobs ill join a diff clan" |

Good concept but a lot of flaws and easily abused.

One can hardly place scripts in other people's places or expect them to always remember to. Additionally, lots of clans like to dress up and then go to non-clan related places. |

Please be more specific. What flaws are there? |

1. how, you idiot. everyone in a rank gets the same single uniform
2. again, the same single uniform key words *single uniform" for each rank.
3. it would be an option, obviously -_- |

Several flaws others have addressed.
Just make shirt givers in-game, not that hard.

"Just make shirt givers in-game, not that hard."
But what if clans want to dress up and go somewhere that isn't affiliated with them or a rival clan? |

This could be spammed.
One shirt and pants for free, 50 robux to upload another uniform set? |
|

I kind of don't like "and are taken away from the users upon leaving the group or being removed for other reasons."
But support. |
