    You were offline for 1/2 days.

    It take maxed mines/collectors 3 days to fill. Absolutely nothing was lost from the economy.

    If you actually want to prove this is an issue that is worth being discussed then leave your clash alone for a few weeks and record the defense logs

    You place your town hall in a corner just so someone snipe it. And then you tell everyone how it is wrong for snipers to snipe town halls ? Even if it is wrong, you're part of the problem itself.

    This is an interesting thread. A picture of my clan was posted and I therefore feel obliged to comment.

    I have been a fully-maxed TH7 Champion for 8 months and Savage Seven is my clan. I have no desire to upgrade this account as I have a near maxed TH10. Loot is not usually an issue for lower town halls who trophy push as my storages usually full and have very little to spend it on, apart from the gold required pressing 'Next'.

    There have a been several negative comments pertaining to TH sniping, but the fact is that I spend very little time raiding with my TH7 account as it maintains itself (most defences are -1 to -3). Players leave their THs exposed for a reason - a cheap shield. As Adam Smith wrote, there is both Supply and Demand. There is a demand for both 'cheap shields' and ' free trophies'. There would not be TH Snipers in higher leagues if players did not want a cheap shield in the first instance.

    Players also place several traps around their THs (as WiteLighteningHWD has emphasised in his latest video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9tV2-s3vB0), and it can thus also (obviously mostly in lower leagues) be an attacking strategy.

    Moreover, many Savage Seven members do not simply snipe (as illustrated by our YouTube www.youtube.com/user/SavageSevenCOC) and utlise mass dragons to 50% a base. I actually prefer doing this rather than searching for hours for base to snipe. I did not use gems to get to Champion League 8 months ago, but I do have a method (as does Sparhawk, which he kindly posted in his pushing guide on this forum) and it does function without having to spend your entire life on Clash of Clans. I will gladly admit that I know utilise gems for shields and to boost barracks when needed to ensure that I always have 10 dragons in my barracks.

    Please feel free to ask questions as I will endeavour to answer.

I still agree on it not being good for the economy, if they lowered the base shield timer I wouldn't really care to much I guess.

    Even a th3 could take some loot with some archers on a dead base with pumps outside.

    that being said, people shouldn't complain about having free shield. Put your th inside and you will attract much fiercer opponents!!!

    I don't know why people seem to be hammering the point of collector raids, what about the maxed cap loot inside the storages? Whatever happened to storage raids? If collector raiders are the majority of posters that complains about the loot shortage then this thread should highlight how picky and finicky some collector raiders are if they can't be bothered to clean up some half full collectors that could net them an extra 150k+ gold and elixir and 2k+ de.

    I'm not sure about your opinion on the issue at hand. I am sure that you want to post toxic comments and try to troll me. Please can you stop attacking me and please leave this thread. Thank you.

    Are you saying that it is only worth it to attack full collectors? I know I would go for an easy 300/300 collector raid. Would you do the same?

    Yes, I am part of the problem. I'm selfish too. But snipers are as well. Anyone who snipes is part of the problem, and anyone who puts their town hall out is part of the problem. There is no point in me putting my town hall inside at this time as the situation is at the point where a few people putting town halls inside would do nothing.

    My xbows could hit archers attacking 2 of the collectors...

    I guess not all of the low level players are aware of the xbow changes.

    If you didn't get a shield for having your town hall destroyed, nobody would care what snipers do to the availability of loot.

    But been one who has held a few cups and wars a lot you would also know there are times you will get 1 star wins by getting into a core of a base - destroying a hall but falling short of 50%.

    They legitimately lost and fully deserve a shield.
    I think you meant 40%, that's when you get a shield, and that's a good point, but couldn't the shields be done in a different manner to stop sniping from protecting loot and still shield people who deserve it?

    Yep. Whether the trolls in this thread like it or not, 700/600/6k could have been looted from me, but a sniper selfishly sniped me meaning that no one could touch it. Now imagine if I wasn't playing, I would be continually sniped until I'm pushed back in the queue with loot that will never be touched.
