Yes donating resources has been ruled out but.....

Am I right or am I right?

Thanks for posting that Ninja, reporting them

Why not allow donating resources to other clan members but it would cost gems to do so. Example 100 gems per 500k resources (gold and Elixer), and/or 100 gems per 20k DE? I think supercell could make some serious cash from loyal clans. Oh and I wouldn't mind a cut

Which will make Supercell more money?

100 gems ($1) to give someone 500k in Gold?

or

1750 gems ($14) to give someone 500k in Gold?


I find it odd how people somehow think an idea that would save people money somehow means that Supercell will make more money.

Supersell doesn't make money from the occasional 100 gem spender, they make it from those that have spent thousands on this game....

The trick is to give us juuuuuuuust enough gems that we know how helpful they are but not enough to really speed things along. Make us want to buy them. I'm sure SC has business analysts staring at metrics and studies on a pretty regular basis trying to ensure they feed enough into the market to keep it healthy. They probably love reading all of the "I need more gems" themed posts.

Bingo. With as much money as they make, I'm sure they have a financial analyst that's laughing at these type of requests.

Well, just because it's ruled out, doesn't mean that it can't be implemented. It only says "supercell has ruled these out and are not being worked on" you never know.

The term "RULED OUT" as defined by a variety of dictionaries is "To reject from list of possibilities" and "To make something impossible" or "To disallow"

So yes, being considered RULED OUT may not mean the CAN'T do it, it means they WON'T do it. Not at this time, not without further review.

The option to buy resources makes this pointless. They want people who want to get resources by not raiding or collectors to spend as much as possible. Presenting a way to allow people to receive resources way cheaper is not in their best interest. Not to mention comparing 100 gems or however much for 10k DE is way cheaper for a TH7 that wants to gem their king

How exactly do they stand to profit from folks creating alternate accounts and using the gems they get from achievements and what not to send resources to their main account?

Donating resources and variations on that basic idea are currently ruled out.
