Hello fellow GEMMERS

i havent gemmed yet but i know i will have to one day if i want the 5th builder Hut. it took long enough to collect 1000 gems i dont think i really want to wait for 2000. But thats all i will do i dont see the point of buying the full works just to look like im the best there is.

I don't understand why people care how other people play the game.

I use gems to boost my barracks so I can raid more and get resources faster as I like to do it for a couple hrs each night and that makes my use of time most effective.

Only time I have gemmed resources is on push to masters as I was running low on elixir.

I think there are very few people who can afford to gem all the upgrades but if they do who cares. Just take pride in your own base and how you play the game but do not discredit others for how they play.

So it's their fault that Heroes are nerfed!

Just kidding, no one hate gemmers.

I don't hate guys that gem, I hae bought gems myself. I boost a lot and I also if people gem troops.

The only people I hate are the guys that farmed 1/5 of me and think they better because there maxed townhall 10.
If I could I would never ever buy resources with gems. NEVER

Amen. I'm currently farming legos and I'd hate to be doing it without the boost.

I did buy 4th and 5th builder since I've been playing clash for a good amount and can see myself sticking with the game even longer.

Why not support the devs if you love their game :)

Gems have their place and role in the game, no doubt. I got my builders with gems. I boost my barracks with gems, but that's it. Frankly I love people who misuse gems because they don't know how to use them wisely. That way I can come across a gemmed th10 and totally destroy it.

And I also agree with the other posts speaking to paying on clash as opposed to buying a console game. I can't play xbox in an airport. And I've always hated getting a console game I was fed up with after a week. At least with clash you have the chance to play awhile before deciding if you are going to invest in it.

If people in the top 10 or 20 wanna spend thousands on the game to stay there, go ahead, I'll never get there anyway.

So far SuperCell has released pretty good updates, even though many dislike the last one that I've seen on forums. My point is that money for gems is not going to a company who is not working on the game. It is obvious that they are continuously working on it and trying to make it better.

The truth is that there are many types of gemmers (the aforementioned included), but one thing that cannot be denied is that they are the lifeblood of games like this, providing the necessary income to keep a game going, and giving developers/company a reason to keep pushing updates, keep adding capacity, and just plain keeping the game going.

Anyone who thinks that gemmers ruin the game should thank their lucky stars that there are zero ads, that the game is free to download, free to play, and is a high quality game.

Some think that its foolish to spend money on a "kids game" or bc "it' free so why pay". I can guarantee you it's not kids who have kept the game #1 on iTunes for so long and many of these same people would gladly pay $50-$60 for a video game that they get far fewer hours out of.

So thank your fellow gemmers and know that their contributions to a capitalistic society are welcomed.

I gemmed (a whole $5) and don't regret it one bit.

Funny part is most players who use gems are not kids. They are adults with full time careers who can easily afford gems. Time is money. Kids are the ones who don't understand that.

I've probably spent around 50 bucks on the game so far but I don't consider myself to be a "Gemmer."

I got all 5 builders and used the rest to either boost barracks of speed up upgrades that are in the last couple hours. I'm TH8 and have a 231 million gold grab so I think I'm not spending money to get through the game.

Probably when I hit TH9 I will spend 10 bucks to speed up both xbows and maybe to get the last measly DE for the AQ and then it's back to boosting Barracks and raiding.

60 bucks....that's about the same price I pay for PS4 games. I have no problems supporting Supercell by buying gems....it's a great game.

i think other people care how other people play the game, because other people affect yourself... ever play clan wars?
bad attackers can cause ur team to lose the war, even if u got ur team 6 stars O_o

and those kids that heavily gem often are poor attackers...

key word is heavily gem.... i spend $40-50 a month on gems... and 95% of it goes to barrack boosting.. i dont consider that heavily using gems, i'd say those kids who gem resources and time much too frequently are the ones people are talking about when they say they hate or dislike gemmers.

and yes this is all just to be... that guy.
