Pretty simple,

The purpose of this plugin would be to restrict too many players from one clan to play on a server.

The problem with too many players from one clan playing on a server is pretty logical. They all join together at once and they all leave at once. if you have 32 slot server and more than half of them are from some certain clan. Once they all leave, they will leave at once, and all the other visitor players will notice and see everyone leaving and they will follow too.

Which results in an empty server.

My idea is this plugin could work 2 ways...

1. Use hlxstats to determine clans and set maximum amount of clan members a server can have.

2. Make plugin record clan tags
(If the server has 2 or more ppl with the same exact tags ANYWHERE in their name, the plugin will notice that and record it as a clan tag.

Not trying to dismiss your idea, but if you're concerned with players leaving because of others doing so, you could try removing the disconnect message. Something like http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=716436 would remove the messages.

Yeah true...but then admins wouldnt be able to see disconnect messages.

But I guess it can be changed so that only admins see it?

Correct with sm_adminshowmessages, all of those messages are shown to admins. It could be a temporary fix until someone writes what you've requested.

No, it blocks disconnect messages, spectator message, and the likes. You can show those messages to admins via that variable.
