promoting to soldier

[Soxson]

I run a newbie clan, NOVA, and I run into this almost every time I invite a newbie. When I go to promote them to soldier, I get the message that they need to be out of combat. So I tell them to get out of combat. Many noobs just don't understand, that I need them to be out of combat and don't listen. And then I end up clicking the promote command every 5 seconds like a fool until they're finally out of combat.

So I ask, is this restriction from civilian to soldier really necessary? I can see why going from soldier to civilian might be exploitable, but I don't really see how you can exploit it vice versa.

Me and all the veterans+ of beginner clans would greatly appreciate the removal of this restriction.

Stupid idea when it creates a teaching opportunity for new people, if youre running or in a newbie clan you are expected to teach people so stop being lazy and teach. Is out of combat that hard of a concept to teach?

This is not a simple game. Newbies are already loaded with information that they're still trying to grasp. You must not have experienced noobs not listening to why you need them out of combat.
