What most clans do, is when you're a new commer to the clan, you are on trial. Meaning you're getting used to the members and socializing. When it comes to wars; I would say yes, you should be allowed to participate. Wars go in cycles when fighting.
First player
Second player
Third player
It's all on how the leader of this war on your side is setting it. Once you lose, the next player will go who's in the cycle. This is just what most clans are doing. No idea if Skeez, Krulls, or WHOEVER is running the war department sees fit. You'll have to wait for their say. ;3
