There is no problem. You're doing what supercell wants you to do
There is no problem for gemming. It is just another way to play this game, and it is completely fine. Some ppl may not like the fact that money can get your stuff upgraded quick, whereas they had to farm it, but it is still fine by me.
The reasoning behind this is that if someone has a high level TH, then they mustve gemmed it because "there's no way you can get the money to upgrade"
If you did gem, thats fine. If you didnt, thats cool too. I would stay off of global chat btw
There is no problem. Although it's not advisable to have a high TH and low level defences, that just makes it harder in the long run. If you do want to gem your base, it would be advisable to spread the gems around. Don't just focus on the TH.Quote:

FYI- Be careful when gemming Town Hall. Go to high to fast and you will find your available loot from raids goes down.
Yes but what if you find someone with town hall 10 and level 2 defenses and level 2 walls and they gemmed? Wouldn't that be a little bad?Quote:

In terms of gemmers, there are mild gemmers who only spend gems to get 4 or 5 builders right away, then there are heavy gemmers who spend money to buy gems to get all builders, boost barracks, boost upgrades, buy DE for heroes, etc etc. And there's also everything inbetween the two extremes.
Gemming is generally not recommended unless you understand the consequences of what gemming can lead to, which in most cases is a high TH level, with under-developed defenses and offenses. A lot of people starting out get hooked on the game and have no knowledge of loot penalties and the problems that arise from going stragiht to TH10 just to unlock all walls and buildings, not knowing the problems they'll have raiding with level 2 and 3 troops at TH10.
Then once they hit TH10 and click next a bunch of times, only to realize they aren't getting matches with more than 50k gold ever (since they're are at lower trophies and seeing th5, 6, 7s) and they often quit at this point, or come on the forums to rant that Supercell tricked them.
As long as you know what you are getting yourself into, gemming is perfectly fine. And it's true, the only reason this game is free is thanks to gemmers.
With out gemmer there will be no to support SC, thanks to the gemmer because CoC is free.:rolleyes:
I would much rather pay £5 for the game and have no in game purchases. This way it would be a fair battle to the top 200. Also, ive been playing this game for a year, where as some people have played for a few months and have made more progress via gems.
