What is so wrong about Lightning the De?

[MigDaddy]

Its a part of the game plus if anything you only lose 7% of your DE

[Sturmi]

Yea its part of the game and totally ok because its hard for th7's to farm the King up

But please stop zapping at th9... thats a shame because you have strong enough troops to get all instead of zapping a little amount

[BlochTheRocker]

It is wrong because you don't give away the shield. Let's say you've farmed for hours and saved up a good amount of dark elixir. You log off only to find that you've been lightninged by three different players and still haven't gotten a shield. That happened to me all the time when I was in gold league.

Stealing loot is part of the game, yes, but when you do - at least have the decency to give that player a shield.

Lightning the dark elixir storage is unethical. END.OF.DISCUSSION.

Then put your TH on the outside. A vast majority of zappers will snipe the TH then zap. You get a 12 hour shield that way.

Or go up in trophies. If you're worried about getting zapped without getting a shield, that stuff doesn't happen at higher trophy levels.

There are no "ethics" in a game like this, and even if there were, zapping DE storage STILL wouldn't be "unethical". END.OF.DISCUSSION.

If zapping DE is unethical then so is attacking lower TH levels, or collector raids.

Not one anti-zapper has ever made an even remotely legitimate case on why DE zapping is "wrong", and I can give several reasons why anti-zappers are wrong. I've never lost this argument, and never will

So you think stealing loot, and smashing bases of weaker players, or inactive players is ethical?????


This is a game about stealing as much loot as you can, I think if ethics is an issue, you should be playing games with pink sparkly ponies, and flying unicorns, with all the other 12 year old girls .......

Nothing, there's nothing wrong with it.

Go back to fourth grade kid. You clearly don't understand ethics. You can smash up anyone, but the loot penalty makes it idiotic to go for someone too low - that's Supercell implementing ethical rules. Clearly, ethics matter.

My point being, you can smash up anyone, because that gives the player a shield, and thereby it will only happen once until that player has the chance to attack again himself. A lightning on the storage does not.

There are no ethics in a game where part of it relies on you to steal from another person by any means necessary.

LOL a what can't be more than 15-year-old telling someone to "go back to fourth grade".

I'm a CPA; my whole career evolves around ethics. And I deem DE zapping to be ethical. Carry on.
