Well said! My take on this is that a) People are short sighted and can't see very much beyond their own farming habits (i.e. my tactics are okay, but when you use tactics I don't like, that's not right) b) people are having an emotional and "moral" reaction to something because they can't control it. The TH9s and 10s feel they have earned the right to near invulnerability because they have black walls and strong defenses, and getting around that with a few lightning strikes is "evil". It's not evil, it's a way to get ahead.
I'm a Th9 and I applaud the tactic for one very good reason: CoC is a game of bullies. The strong raid the weak to get ahead. So the strong are complaining because the weak figured out how to ♥♥♥♥ them off and get ahead a bit.
Have you noticed that you don't get DE drills until TH8 but storage and a barb king at TH7... that because SC wants you raid! Hey what a good idea, blast storages to get DE so you can get your barb king. Why the heck not? You think it's cheap? It's not cheap! It's 60,000k! And you risk a retaliation.
Get over yourselves. At TH9 I have no trouble accumulating DE because 1) I maxed my drills and 2) I raid as well! I can do this because raiding allows me to do so.
This is a game mechanic and it's intentional and should not be changed. Get over yourselves and play.
Till date i have filled up my 80k DE storage twice and im half way done for the third. All thanks to SC for the 1gem boost to spells! Lightning DE has been an awesome!
Finally found the post that was quoted constantly. And do you notice something? 2 of those 3 attacks are actually from town hall 8 players, lv 5 spells/troops.
The perception that it is simply a case of new TH7 players vs TH9 & TH10 farmers is wrong.
It's very easy for town hall 8s to hang around Crystal leagues to unleash this tactic. So hiding in higher leagues isn't the solution either. It may reduce it happening a bit, but won't eliminate it.
I am almost maxed hall 8 and I could make around 1,000 DE doing this against hall 10s. Particularly during a spell boost weekend that is awfully tempting. I haven't done it because I prefer rage to get more - but again it is tempting and I could very easily sit in Crystal and thor all of you. With the spell boost weekend you could easily make around 2,000DE an hour with this. That is far too much for a strong hall 8 to be able to get that much DE with just spells alone.
I can live with TH7's doing it as they are new to DE and haven't yet quite mastered how to crack the big boys bases. The DE storage boost wasn't enough to prevent the tactic remaining quite profitable. Which is why I think something needs to be done to result in less DE per strike of lightning; one way or another.
Well, you are getting shields since people are 1 starring you. You must be breaking the shields, and choosing not to raid to make up the lost dark elixir. After any one of those attacks, you should easily make up the loss in 1-2 raids.
SC doesn't want people to sit on resources, so if you aren't raiding to make up the difference, then it's your own fault that you are bleeding DE.

Well I just see it as part of the game. If you want to avoid it, go up in higher leagues. If it still happens, hey free trophies and you just raised higher.
