Change outside town hall to give no stars

I've had my town hall outside for six months. Best decision I ever made.

I suggest that you change it so that THs no longer give 1 star, but the TH should give ~20% of the total of the defenders resource pool (DE included).
This will make the TH still valuable enough to protect, yet stop people from TH farming.
Why do you want them to stop farming THs do you ask?
Because of shields, taking out someones outside TH gives the defender a 12h shield. Why do we care? Because it reduces the overall pool of targets to attack. The more targets to attack, the more major (All in) attacks placed, the more overall down time between attacks, the more quality targets for all.

so thank you.

People who write these threads on ways to ruin farming obviously have not experienced the difficulty in saving the necessary loot for even the average th8 upgrade, let alone the 8 million gold needed to get th10 upgrades.

Without farming, you a giving new players only one possible way to upgrade their bases in the higher levels in any reasonable time frame- gemming. Gemming while great for the companies bottom line doesn't make more resources out there. People aren't going to fill their storage with gold until they need to spend it. Result. A lot of empty storage that only fill up for the briefest of moments before a new upgrade is selected.

I'm sure even Supercell knows by now that eliminating farming will result in a huge number of people quitting this game at th8 because they just become frustrated with how long everything takes to do. I have farmed my way to a maxed th10 (minus walls not there yet). People in my clan can see it is possible to do and thus they stick at it as long as they can. Sometimes impatience causes them to gem boost or gem their barb king or or archer queen or even just their builders huts. This is the long term revenue that Supercell is guaranteed in getting as long ad they keep farming alive.

You are all missing the point. I am not proposing to ruin farming. I am proposing to ruin sniping. There is a major difference.
My proposed change WOULD INCREASE THE ABILITY TO RAID FOR RESOURCES. Not decrease it. Dont be so narrow minded and think about what I am proposing here.
Removing 1 star from town halls, and replace it with resources, would dramatically reduce the number of shields active. Giving you BETTER targets, not worse.
I am TH9, not far from going to TH10. I am frustrated that I have to sit there hitting Next 50+ times to find a decent target. You know decent targets, those are the ones where by raiding them, and succeeding, will actually give you more elixer than what you spent to raid them. And before you go ranting about efficient attacks, yes I know how to do efficient attacks.

Just coz you don't like snipping doesn't mean you need to eliminated it. Some people like shields, deal with. I snipe a lot, you can save a lot of elixir from snipping. I doubt Supercell will add this anyway, so let this thread die inpeace

I am a TH8 Farmer! And at TH6 you come to a stand still because this is the time that people start farming you!!!! And I quite because I got tired of higher levels killing my reserves, with no WAY to protect myself! Almost two months later I heard they made less loot rewards for people the lower the TH they are attacking! So I started playing again and at TH6 I started getting attacked again by TH 7 so I dropped trophies and started farming myself!!!

The point to this is is during that time Supercell could have fixed farming and yet they chose restrictions instead! There for until something better comes along, farming is here to stay! UNFORTUNATLEY!

My TH never goes behind walls. The only time it's been behind walls was when CW came and had to redesign base for war. I even pushed to masters with my TH exposed!

I still don't really understand why this would kill farming. It would hurt a bit because you can't get easy shields but you can also get easy loot from other people, especially in this bad loot recession that people keep posting about

It's also a tad silly for the town hall claiming to be 'the heart of your village' when it's something that you want destroyed

Farming is part of the strategy that many players use. Taking this out will ruin a lot of plans. This will frustrate many players.
