Judging from your username, I'll take that as a compliment... Honestly who are you, telling me to leave? What, you think you make the forum a better place? I'm not looking to start a flame war. Just watch what you sayQuote:

You sound exactly like the 9/11 conspiracy theorists. You are dead set on your belief that Supercell is evil and purposely created this bug. You have no solid proof of your claims, just a lot of assumptions with a little bit of fact here and there. You act like you know how to program and fix bugs, but most of the people on here are barely out of high school or college, just like how 9/11 conspiracy theorists act like they're architects and engineers. Furthermore, you insult anyone that doesn't agree with you by calling them "blind" or "fanboys" just like the conspiracy theorists calling people "sheeple." Your articles sound like sensationalist bull♥♥♥♥ and you don't act mature enough. No wonder a lot of people are not agreeing with you. You are going about it the entirely wrong way.
Now I admit, it has been a while that this bug has been around for, and it is costing us more gems than normal. But there is still no proof of a scam. If there were Apple would be on their asses, as I am pretty sure they are not making money from it. In any case, why don't one of you file a law suit against them if you really think this is a scam? Get someone to investigate them instead of blabbering on and on about it on the forum, making empty threats? Surely there is someone on here who knows how to go about doing this, right?
I will start off by admitting I did not read through all 87 pages of this thread so I do not know if this suggestion for a fix has been offered to them yet, if it has been then I apologize.
The following suggestion is based on my belief that everything in the game runs on a database.
When a building or an upgrade begins have it log the start time. It can then calculate and save the end time by adding the build/upgrade time to the logged start time. Then have the build/upgrade finish at the saved end time regardless of lag. To keep it all uniform, the logged times should be server time.
Hope this helps.
PS. To anyone who wants to criticize this, have fun. :D

I don't really like to rant about 9/11 because no matter what the truth is the whole thing is sad to think about and I feel great sympathy for those involved. What I'm getting at here is people are easily persuaded into believing things whether they be true or false. It's easy to make up a story, as well make it credible. If there is a known issue that with a solution, obviously it should be fixed. If the fix is being neglected, there is likely a reason. In most cases, I believe this one included. It comes down to one thing, money.
I like the quote, but is it not just as insane to continue reading and visiting such a repetitive thread? Are you expecting different results? It doesn't seem like you feel the bug is a big deal so is it insanity that draws you here? P.S. I admit it, I'm also insane :eek:Quote:

The wire tapping scheme also didn't go on for long before it was discovered.Quote:

The last part of your response relies on the assumption that there is already a fix available for the bug, which there is no evidence of there being.
Personally I do not believe it was an intentional scam implemented by SC in the 1st place. However, now that it's been 1.5 years without fix it seems as though SC have adopted the "can't be bothered attitude" since the bug works to their favour due to the increased revenue - no matter how minimal.Quote:

Under this logic the bug will NEVER be fixed. Perhaps once they stop updating the game & have nothing new to add then they might actually get around to implementing a fix.Quote:

I hate to go into much further detail since I would only be repeating what's been said by others & myself throughout the entire thread.
Have you ever considered that repeating ones self offers guidance & provides those who have recently entered the room with information that they may have not already encountered.Quote:

Critical has a seperate meaning when dealing with software/bugs. This instance would be refering to how it affects useability or ability of the software to perform. An example of a critical bug would be one that crashes the game or results in data loss and this bug is neither.Quote:

*edit* To add, the severity of the bug being described as not critical can also refer to how the customer base reacts to it measured in degrees of dissatisfaction. Being that the vast majority of people who have posted in this thread continued or continue to play the game with the knowledge of this bug reinforces that the bug is not critical.
