    To clarify I DO NOT HAVE A PROBLEM WITH ZAPPING.

    I am not saying something SHOULD be done.

    I am not saying it is a BAD thing.

    I was just interested in raising an idea to potentially give people defensive options against something that is currenty un-defendable.

    Please READ what I have said before commenting on what you THINK I have said. I zap people for an extra bit of dark elixir every now and then. Therefore it WOULD NOT be in my interest for this idea to be implemented - I simply have an open enough mind to suggest things that wouldn't JUST benefit me - unlike some other pig-headed people on the forums.

    As for RULED OUT IDEAS, I find it rather unfair that I should be denied the opportunity to talk about something because my predecessors on this forum have already talked about it. Even if an idea HAS been ruled out it is simy harmless conversation of which those interested can engage. If you are not interested for whatever reason then simply don't post and allow the thread to drop from the top and disappear from your royal view!

    It's an open idea...

    I think I answered your initial post correctly, earlier, as you state this has been raised "since forever" and the idea of teslas taking the zap has likewise has been brought up "since forever" - ruled out is ruled out. Your post has added nothing to try and sway this, or provide a new alternative. You're rehashing old territory, no base should be undefendable and certainly not in such a simple a way as to place a building next to another. Just think what you are saying and don't be so tetchy about the responses.

    I am not trying to SWAY anything, simply DISCUSS.

    You quoted my last post but obviously didn't read it. Why should I not be able to discuss an idea that has been ruled out, that was discussed before I even GOT here?! Because somebody sometime ago already brought it up? Sorry, but I think everyone should have a chance to discuss!

    And I wouldn't be so TETCHY if the responses actually ANSWERED the original post. Very few people have even hinted to mention the pro's / con's of the subject. Instead you opted to moan that it has already been discussed. Why don't you read my post and actually contribute to te thread by simply saying you don't like the idea and perhaps mention why. Either this or DON'T post, let it drop from the top of the page and disappear?!

    not according to the moderators...
    http://forum.supercell.net/showthrea...now-be-DELETED

    i'm not at all against discussing ruled out items as long as someone is coming up with new ideas about it to add for discussion but you haven't we are going over old gound which will lead to the post being deleted.

    And it is expected of all forum posters to abide by the ground rules of researching your topic first rather than starting new threads.

    Then my simple question to you is 'Why did you post in the first place'.

    Why not leave it and let te thread drop to the bottom if the page or be deleted?!

    And actually what if I disagree with the rules as yet discriminate against newer forum members?

    There are General Elections every 5 years because the political climate changes. The same will happen as this game is updated an old ideas will become more relevant.

    To give you the information that you needed.

    Zapping is good for the game and should continue. Tesla's absorbing lightning spells is ruled out. You should search and contribute to an existing conversation before spamming the forum with another identical idea. This has all been discussed many times already in the last 48 hours and countless times in the months prior.

    I may have missed a few items but those are the key reasons why we responded. So you could get the information you need as quickly as possible and this thread could fade away or be removed as duplicate drivel, whichever happens first. Nobody benefits form this.

    i sincerely apologise for poisoning your page with 'duplicate drivel'. Am I right in assuming the Protectors of this realm will permit my posting in the form of a response to another spammer's duplicate drivel from months ago then? Or am I just banned outright from even speaking of anything that may have been suggested previously full stop?

    As Iceageg says to give the information you need, but also to encourage people to think of NEW ideas about existing problems/issues rather than going over old territory,

    I can't believe you would disagree about the notion of researching a topic before writing about it, clearly the English education is worse now than when I was a wee ankle-biter.

    My English education has landed me a fine job in the ADULT world. I suggest you pay a visit sometime.

    There is a difference between disagreeing with a post and attempting to personally insult somebody's intelligence. I suggest you read the post about not being TOXIC.

    Difference of opinion offers debate, debate offers change, change moves us forward as a civilisation.

    It was my error for not checking the Tesla specific post. It is your error for attempting to make a conversation about discussing previous posts personal.

    Besides, my latest post has not been answered. I suggest you read it if you wish to constructively contribute to this thread rather than making personal attacks.

    It has never been my intention to insult anybody, I know nothing about you and you know nothing about me - you too don't seem to be reading my posts clearly:
    "As Iceageg says to give the information you need, but also to encourage people to think of NEW ideas about existing problems/issues rather than going over old territory,"
    That was my intention, not to be, as you put it "TOXIC"

    The only quote I see in addition to your original that has any relevance is this one, in which you have insulted a lot of forum goers by a very toxic and narrow minded coment of calling them "pig-headed" when they too are just as entitled to air their views, I could have been sly and just reported your post but I was actually giving you the benefit of the doubt. It won't happen again.
