If SC thought something was wrong with this, they would've fixed it a LONG time ago...

I respect that. But what if you had more reason to protect your TH? Like a defense bonus?

It should not be. That is my point.

I feel I have no choice. The advantage of a farming base is so great that I would have to be stupid not to take advantage of it.

I have never managed to get higher than Crystal 2. I would probably love to raid in the masters/champion league, but then I would need more trophies. I find it hard to collect trophies when it is loot I want. But this is kinda off topic...

I dont think you will continue your daily life when your roof collapsed on you,

Don't worry they are immortal.

It is in SC's best interest that their players like their game. I would like to hope that SC could make some changes to the game so it made more sense, and that people still would like it, hopefully like it even more.

Hopefully, the increased loss of loot could be compensated for in some other way, as I mentioned in the post.

See what I marked in bold? You need to think of other people too. They have feelings. This would ruin it for me.

I have feelings too! :D

I am sure we could make this work without ruining the game for anyone!

If this ruins the game for you, why on earth are you still playing, let alone using the strategy you say you hate?

Careful with this one. Games are an escape from reality. Making games make "more sense" is often bad design. Nobody wants to play a game called My Crappy Life. Unrealistic is often the best way.

More specific to this topic, I agree that the TH should be valued enough to protect. The problem (which you have acknowledged) is that making that change would require a boatload of accompanying changes. Enough that the core game play dynamic would be impacted. Since TH in -vs- TH out is only an opinion problem (that is, it doesn't break gameplay) it may be prudent to leave it alone rather than risk breaking gameplay with sweeping change. It may be safer and easier to take this as a lesson learned and account for from the start in their next game.

Lol... yeah I agree. And farming is apart of the game....

You may be right. And a better approach might be to increase the incentives to protect it, as discussed in the post that has already been linked to a few times now: http://forum.supercell.net/showthrea...nse-Incentives
