If any of you reading this are unaware, in the last 24 hours there has been an issue where some top players have been downloading a crazy mod. This next paragraph will explain the mod, if you already know about it, feel free to skip.
By now, the CoC forums is basically SPAMMED with posts on this subject.
When you get to around 3600 trophies, it takes about 40-60 minutes to find a match. And when you are done sitting in the clouds, that match you find gets you 1-3 trophies. So the raiding is so ineffecient up there. The mod makes it much easier to increase trophies. Most top players only win 1-5 defences a season. So it is really hard to get trophies up there. If you scroll through the top players profiles, you will realize some of them have won 20-30 defences this season. This is because of the mod. When you hover over a base in which the defender has the mod installed, right when the base shows up, there will be a message saying: "Client error and server out of sync", and you will have to reload the game and when you check your attack log, there will be an attack that has 1 barbarian placed, and no replay available. You just lost 20-40 trophies. You are a victim of the mod. Players have been using this mod to win defences and increase their trophies rapidly.
Earlier today, there was a maintenance break that fixed the mod. And now the players that used this mod feel like they got away with it. If we don't push Supercell to punnish these players, they will get away with it. There have indeed been other bad mods in the past, but none this bad. I mean, how do you think this feels to the attacker that just lost 40 trophies? It takes several days to earn those 40 trophies back that high.
So how SHOULD these guys be punnished? I have heard a genious penalty that will hurt them in a way that won't get them banned. Set them back at 0 trophies. These guys deserve it for stealing days of raiding from other players that play the game the way it should be played.
Another punnishment would be an obvious one, to just simply ban them from the game. But does Supercell want to do that? Nooooooooooooo they don't. We know they want money, and I don't balme them. Who doesn't want money? But really, these guys deserve some kind of hurtful penalty.
So what do you think? Tell me what you think about this. I'm curious about what you guys think. Thanks so much for reading! (1125 views! Wow thanks so much!)
