Ok, I am new to the forums and I have already seen about 50 thousand threads per hour created about complaints about some lower players coming in and taking a lot of dark elixir. I am honestly sick of these threads. I also feel the pain of low level players coming in and stealing dark elixir with lightning spells. It is super annoying.
I know that Supercell will not stop zapping completely and they will also not create any new defence that will absorb lightning strikes. This has been established is every thread about zapping.
I believe that I may have a solution to this. It is simple, everyone complains about players coming in with lightning spells and stealing over a thousand of their dark elixir each time. Well then how about this? Lets increase the amount of hitpoints of the dark elixir storage! This will keep everyone happy. Say for example if supercell doubles the hitpoints on the dark elixir storage then people can still zap your storage however instead of 1k they will only get about 500. This will just make zapping dark elixir less efficient and most importantly stop the absurd amount of threads created every day. Keep in mind that I only gave an example and supercell probably wont double the hitpoints on the dark elixir storage but even if they increase the hitpoints by a quarter that will keep every one happy. I am not sure if it has been brought up before but let me know what your thoughts are on that.
