Gem lock

how many times has it happened that someone (usually a toddler) has your phone and when you get it back they've spent some or all of your gems. i understand that SC doesnt want to implement confirmation boxes upon confirmation boxes, but gems equate to actual currency having the ability to lock your gems away so that you have to CONFIRM before you spend any is IMHO a must have feature!
This would prevent all those mistaken taps where someone spends gems by mistake because of a fat finger tap. spending real money to get gems, and then have it just spent by mistake on something you didnt really want is NOT good.

Yes this is absolutely required and I absolutelyyyyyy know the feeling when this happens :mad:

that makes no sense - gems are in game currency that u can get by spending real money, having the ability to protect it from getting spent because of a miss tap has nothing to do with being a gammer...

I think his reply was intended to make supercell think more people would gem if they made a lock. A little reverse psychology.

Thought you knew it was ruled out by your post?

*Add gem use confirmation on all functions

that is different from what i'm suggesting here, i.e. locking the use of gems unless *unlocked* specifically by the user. no popups, no confirmation, simply have the gem icons greyed out while the user has the gems locked.

every step that makes people buy more gem, supercell will take it.
In this case, they will think that if your child spent all your gems, then you will buy more.
why? because you bought so much already, you are likely to buy even more

honestly speaking, i'll be ♥♥♥♥♥♥ off enough to quit the game for a couple of weeks & probably not buy gems again when i start playing again. if i knew that there is a way to prevent mistaken spends like this, it would actually encourage me to buy them.
