Paying Interest for Storage

OK, playing and reading these forums it seems one of the biggest complaints is that it takes too long to find decent matchups where you can recoup the cost of your attack. I spent thousands of gold passing up people with 20K/30K for example to try and find someone with at least 200K that doesn't have x-bows, maxed defense (I'm TH8). Its a lot of waste of time and some days, I just give up and don't play.

Here's my idea. There needs to be more reward for having your storages at risk of being looted. Currently there is no reward so everyone gets them as low as they can by putting their gold into walls and their elixir into barracks (after using builders to upgrade what they need). So why not pay interest on resources held in storage when they are not under a shield and not online (basically attackable)?

Just like taking your money to a bank, the bank has to pay you for storing your money there. It should work the same in CoC. I would think 1% per hour per storage would be equitable. That way if you held 1 Million in a storage you would be paid 10K per hour. If you have a good defense, the longer you can stay attackable, the more interest you accrue. This would also diminish farming since the minute you lost your TH, you go under the shield and stop making interest. Wouldn't completely stop it, but maybe make people think twice about protecting it.

I think this would be a good way to have more villages worthy of attacking by increasing the amount of resources available to be looted. What do you think? (I have no idea if this has been already suggested, but I didn't see it in the stickies.)

Very good idea well thought out and clever biggest issue is... KIDS! I know 7 year olds who play this and they love it! But not all of us are as old and mature and smart enough to figure out the math and learn the risk and reward! My little brother plays who is 10 and he has figured out no gold=less attacks but he is pretty bright... Idk its a good idea but kids are one of Supercells biggest income sources... I think it would hurt the game to hurt the kids

Very interesting idea.

HA HA, yeah, but then again what a great teaching moment!

Not a bad idea very intersting in fact.

But guess what?:rolleyes:
We have a little something called Gold Mines & Elixer Collector :3

You say every hour we get +10k in Gold and Elixer? In 1 hour we get ( 6 x 3000 ) ( 6 level 11 gold mines) = 18k

We get more from mines and collectors. so instead of the storage interest idea.

upgrade your collectors :rolleyes:

So what if you have collectors? This would be in addition to them. Also you don't read very well do you? The hourly interest rate would be based on the quantity in the storages. So based on the OP how much would you make per hour if you had 2m? 3m?

Hint: it is more than 18k.

good idea, good idea

This is one of the few good ideas I have read in the suggestion forum. I like this idea quite a bit.

Why not make a new way to share resources like on the clan castle there should be a button to press and u say which one u want and they donate just sayin it would be cool

This is an excellent idea, it would be great for the game to further encourage keeping storage's full.

More loot for the coc population to raid, and an ability to grow some more resource of your own.
