Walls don't matter if someone looninons you.

not angry, more entertained at your theory.
to beavis and butthead above:
Anyone who has a clue on this game knows they can raid with troops that go over the walls. but sure, keep upgrading.
and before you say "oh well that army will cost a lot..." barbarian, archer, minion. oh my
Wen u have to th10 it starts getting hard if there high lvl with inferno towers hogs r not the best choice cause heal spells dont work with inferno towers the main strategy up high is gowiwi so if u got low walls it won't make it very hard for them to get in..my point they might not mean a hell of a lot now but they will.. Its easier to get loot lower town halls so take advantage of that upgrade walls as u go
Though I disagree that walls are pointless ILove is sort of correct in the matter.
If you have full storages, you will get raided by someone who can decimate you regardless. TH9's have absolutely no problem steam-rolling pretty much any TH8 they come across (maxed or not) so they aren't really "intimidated" nor are they worried about breaking through lvl 7 or 8 walls (since they both take the same amount of breakers).
20 more capacity, 4 spells, Lvl 6 troops, the AQ...yeah not much a TH8 can ever hope to do against a fairly progressed TH9. If they want your loot they will get it, and lvl 8 walls are not going to stop them.
Now, on the otherhand it is true that lvl 8 walls will slow ground troops down once they've exhausted wall breakers on the outer layer and then have none left to break into the core. This in turn is letting your defenses pummel them more and may make it more difficult to reach all storages if they are properly segmented. Higher lvl walls (especially 10/11) make a vast difference in later play being it even takes a few lvl 6 wb's to get through.
And even in the event you get those pretty electric blue walls as a TH10, just means most people will decide to air you instead...and it's not entirely hard to 50% in Champ with loonian/min either.
Bottom line, I'd at least get your walls up to lvl 7 TC. You don't really want to be a TH9 with pink walls either. By not doing them, just means you have more of a grind later on. Getting walls up to Lvl 8 as a TH8 is debatable though (since it still takes the same amount of lvl 5 wbs to break through).
I'd probably still do them, but I wouldn't let it hold you back from progressing to TH9 if you feel you are ready.
Dude you even know a thing or two about BAM ?? Even while using BAM,high level walls do cause problems.And you know why are you wining about high level walls? Cause you can't farm for high level walls.Hell you even know what hardcore farming is??

this is what it takes to farm high level walls.
I understand about walls... I am going to begin upgrading them. But it's hard when I log off and get hit. I moved th outside and am now in shield. I have read that I need a good farming base....I was thinking orz's tesseract but as I looked I didn't like it. Are there any good ideas for a decent farm base not a hybrid. Most th8 only 1 star me it has been th9 with lvl 6 giants and archers tearing me up.
But thank you all for your replies
Several good farming bases exist. Decide what you want to protect the most (Gold/DE, etc) and go from there. My suggestion if you keep getting pummeled is always have an idle builder left on walls. This in turn creates a gold dump meaning you have an easy way to dump all your gold before you log, making attackers more likely to hit "next" or snipe as you will consistently have less loot available to them.
The TH being outside is also a good idea that I see you've currently implemented. Keep in mind that most TH9's will crush you regardless, so there's not really much you can do against them. Again, spending down your storages are your best bet. Spend your DE on the King as soon as you can (until he maxes out at lvl 10), gold on walls, and keep lab upgrades flowing.
You will probably have an overflowing amount of elixer as a later TH8 so I wouldn't worry much about that.
