Dark elixir storage hitpoints and lightning spells

Hello. I have seen many posts relating on lightning spells being used on DE storages. For me it is really annoying but for others it's the way of the game. But I have an idea of changing the amount of hp before recieving any loot. For example, the storage has 2000 hitpoints. To make it fair for players trying to defend their resources, attackers will only start receiving resources after the hitpoints goes to half. So basically from 2000-1001 hitpoints, attacks/snipers will not receive any resources, may it be gold, elixir or dark elixir. I am in th8, maxed out except for walls, lv 88 and recently in gold 1, but decided to move to bronze because of snipers but it didn't made any improvement. I wanted to upgrade my golem so I had to loot, meaning I lose my shield. But after 10 minutes, some sniper will destroy my townhall and snipe my DE. So I made no improvement at all. Please let me know what you think. Thanks.

The only problem with this is that if you attack someone for legit, and you go to attack a DE storage, you'll get no loot if you only manage to attack it a third way through.
Tip - You can always zap yourself or just steal it from the people who took it from you.

OP. You planned to steal other people’s DE to fund your golem upgrade.

So stop whining that someone took your DE from you.

I steal DE by destroying the village. They get annoyed in a different way, they can either think of ideas for a better defense. I am not whining, I am just saying how I react. And I am suggesting my idea. If that is how you think, I respect it. Thank you.

Yes, so maybe not fit on my ideas. or just make it something like 1500/2000 to reduce the amount taken from spells. A bit is fine, but hundreds is, fine too, but takes a lot. Thanks.

OP. The fact remains that you planned to use the rules of the game to steal DE using your preferred attack methods but want to change elements of gameplay to stop others from using their preferred attack method to also steal DE.

Different approaches, same goal, both within game rules.

What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.

There two kinds of people here. The one who defends or goes against it. Well I guess you're one of 'those'. My suggestion is trying to change an element of the game, because how I want is to make things in my way. But I get your point, as each player has its own taste. Thank you for clarifying me.

I think you will find there are way more than two types of people here, but strangely anti-zappers always interpret it that way.

I have never said anywhere on the forum, that I support zappers. OTOH, I don’t believe they should be condemned for their gameplay decisions either. The bolded text says a lot about your position.

If you read my posts in other threads, you will see I don’t especially favour any changes that gives advantage to one type of play over another. Learn to live within the rules and stop trying change the game to you favour by disadvantaging others.

Asking for an element of the game to change because it favours you, regardless of how many support it, is just selfish..

It is also wrong to assume this forum represents the views of the greater CoC playing community because a quick numbers check will show otherwise.

One of the other reasons I don’t see the need for your suggested change, is it affects every type of attack seeking DE, not just zappers.

I'm always used to barge in forums to post threads of my ideas. I haven't read much rules. Sorry for my ignorance. I'm just a 15 year old kid who plays CoC. We all have different perspectives as this is how I make ideas- by myself. I apologize for my selfishness too. Anyway, you don't have to shower me with the community rules, you made your point. At least I learned a lesson while posting a little idea to put in the game. Peace out.

While there are many threads on DE zapping, I am not sure your specific solution has been suggested before now.

As far as I know you haven't broken anything particular forum rules. By all means keep following the forum and contributing to other threads. But I do recommend you read the forum rules and in particular for you stickies for each subforum.
