Cheap-shielding was dealt with previously when they fixed a revenge glitch that was being exploited. If there still remains an exploit, it's not nearly as easy as it once was.
You've only been to Crystal 1, so all the information you have on the issue is heresay, and most likely outdated.
Also, no one cares if you don't offer cheap shields because you can't offer free shield's. You're only in Crystal...
First of all i have been only to crystal with MARCO...........Originally Posted by bruc3y
Secondly I have my sources and in Italy we have a lot of Top Players.....
That's the problem.
As someone who's never been to Champion League or Top 200 global, you rely on your sources from Italy, while i rely on mine from maggiep0tat0 and Zach, and it gives different results.
Therefore, i suggest that we (players who are not directly involved) should stop trying to address issues with which we have no experience.
Someone that's been TH8 for less than a week, and never been above 2500 cups has no business trying to find ways to regulate game play at 3600+ cups. Why are you so concerns with the issue you've never encountered?

Agreed on above.Similarly, why do farmers put their TH outside of their bases?
To air out the rooms in the sunshine & fresh air?
For a cheap shield of course - you're hoping that somebody who's trophy hunting snipes your TH & leaves your 200-400K of resources untouched.
By the logic of your thread, farmers should stop exploiting this loophole in the game
and start stuffing all their THs inside.
In Champ league, we HOPE and we PRAY that by some luck of the draw, somebody we know finds us, 1* us,
and 6 hours of raiding (sometimes even more) does not go down the drain.
But in reality, that hardly ever happens.
Like I said, a family of EIGHT clans - and I am yet to see a Champ from any of them in the last month or so that I've been up here.
Please, stop listening to the folklore & rumours spread by people who have no idea how the game is played up here.

Currently I am at 3900++ cups but I do pray hard someone with 4k cups could give me a cheap shield. LOL

5 questions that have been brought to my attention by this thread....
1. Why are farmers caring about cheap shielding
3. What number is after 1?
4. Where is my other taco?
5. Why are you guys attacking a potato?
Level:92 Check me out#StayFrosty
1. Good moral values, boredom, or they want to hunt but this discourages them.
3. Normally 2 but in this case 3.
4. I ate all the Tacos and burritos too.
5. Noone attacks the potato.

As I have stated earlier, before you continue trolling on,
please remember one fact that you can countercheck with EVERYONE who has walked the block around these Forums
- I had my roots as a farmer (and I still consider myself one, even though the community has slowly begun to push me away) before becoming a hunter.
so unlike you, I think I know what I am talking about on both angles.
FARMING CHEAP SHIELD:
Defender TH exposed - TH sniped, loot saved
Attacking TH exposed - TH sniped, loot bonus gained, trophies gained
HUNTING CHEAP SHIELD:
Defending TH exposed - Higher player attacks you, you usually get totalled, but you lose a grand total of under 10 cups, restoring your sanity for 12 hours of your life
Attacking TH exposed - Higher player gains loot & cups
Sounds like a good deal on both sides to me.
As countless of people have mentioned before,
it is not in any way, a form of chčáting.
You are confusing it with a strategy to help you progress along the game.
My point exactly - as I mentioned earlier, I have found Cloud Whisky 1x / day since I started pushing.You found me at champs
Fob benefited from my 36 cups when I massively failed on his base while trying to shield him
(yes, this is the risk that comes from cheap shielding, so honestly, we don't do it for everyone & anyone because of the risks)
But all three of you are / were in Masters.
(And you benefited from a shield by me as well.)
Till date, I have found only 3 Champ players that I know in the time I have been up here.

NOTE
And I also add another disclaimer:
I do not claim to be an expert on either farming or hunting.
There are way better farmers, and loads of better hunters (like Jess) ahead of me.
Like Speedö & SŠ have noted, I'm still a noob @ 3.5K trophies.
What I did notice during the last Forum Elite though, was that the misconceptions about the hunters / the top clans run by the miles.
Misconceptions such as this.
And it is these rumours and misconceptions, that when left unchecked, turn into ugly monsters that widen the rift between both sides.
I could not spend more than a day in Forum Elite without some form of rumour being thrown @ me,
and by the last day, it got so unbearable & dampened my fun so much that I left before the event was over.
