Agree.
While this is annoying, it does not affect the balance of the game. Things that affect the balance of the game are the biggest problems IMO.

Voted other. Poll is missing a "fix it" option.
I think the OP meant that the poll's options were in addition to fixing the bug outright. Not sure though, it's of course up to the OP him/herself to clarify it.
Either way I've voted 'other' as well. For fixing it if that's not assumed already, and for a public in-game notification with full explanation and apology either way.
Objection!
The reason the bug doesn't apply to shields is that SC wanted to avoid artificial extension of shield durations. I'm going to guess that when they originally programmed the game, the time bug was present in the shield as well, but they realized that it could be abused and fixed it. It's likely that they didn't feel the need to fix it for the builders, as it wasn't game-breaking like it would be for shields. That's just my two cents.
Not voting since the poll obviously should have a "fix it" option. And voting 'Other' groups me in with a bunch of people who could have voted for any reason under that sun.
This issue reminds me of the call for the TH upgrade notification/warning to players in that it is another issue that doesn't really split the community down the middle and has garnered pretty much universal support.
We are long overdue for this problem to be taken care of.
Where are people getting these banners with the time-bug issue? PM me plz. What a great and positive way to raise awareness.
