I am only writing this because I am truly frustrated. There is only so many YouTube, Forums, and Clan help one can get and still find no help before they become upset and totally disenchanted with this game. I am one of them and I am sad to say it, only because I really liked this game. First I want to say I am not made of money and I am not made of time. I started the game as anyone else out in app game land and I followed the game as it led me and I eventually found my self stuck between spending money and waiting 10 days for a mistake ie. upgrading clan house to 9. I worked very hard at creating my village I looted like a champ. I followed all kinds of advice from other players and then one day Clash of Clans updated for clan wars. All I have to say to that is ♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥. I then spent money thinking that upgrading troops and clan house would solve the problems that I ran into (less gold and less Elixir in villages) I now spend close to 15-20 min looking for a clans worth the expenditure I put out. I then fail because I guess my troops are no longer good enough to attack a lesser clan. ????????????????????? I have not joined any Clan and I have not planned to only because I don't think I should have to and I really am not sure I want to. I worked to hard to loose control of my clan to some person I don't know. I'm going back now to another problem. When I upgraded my clan house to 9 it said that it would reduce the amount I would get from clans 8 and less, well I sure was taken back when I realized how much it reduced it. Don't upgrade to 9 until you have maxed out all of your other items. The reduction is so drastic I have regretted it since I clicked upgrade. Sorry that it is such a long post but I just had to put it out there. I hope that some one in the company gets savvy to this and works to fix it. Until then leave your clans unguarded and I will take 1000 from you:D
