Proof: Dead Bases are NOT Removed

[EtoxKen]

If he doesn't collect collectors, he never raids, and he never attacks, it's a dead base...

When someone logs off his account the bases is back in the top of the queue. In other words, is not hide anymore.

Just because the entirety of the forum feels there is no loot doesn't mean there is no loot. Those thousands of cases you mention could probably be cancelled out just as easily as his point was by you. The only people that seem to comment on here, in the vast majority, are complaining about the loot. Reddit isn't on fire with complaints, nor Twitter or Facebook. Some people aren't on the forums at all. You can't take samples of of here, therefore, about the loot, because it's straight bias

Saying there is no loot and dead bases being removed is a different argument. Since this thread is not about how good/bad the loot is, let us not discuss it here. However from my experience, and the experience of many others, since the update a few days of inactivity reduces your chance of being attacked to effectively zero. Whether it is by design or an unintentional consequence is also something I would not like to speculate upon.
Really?? The last I checked the subreddit has been filled with complaints, and from the experience of many others so is facebook/twitter. Regardless of whether or not it is representative of the entire coc population a lot of people are upset, and not just on the forums

Go from barching collectors to attacking storages. Problem solved.

If it's a revenge u can get to the inactive bases

Yes, but since I haven't been on it in eight months, I haven't attacked on it in eight months, so the chances of people revenging me is nothing because my attacks are so old they won't be on people's defence logs because attacks on the logs clear after a month or two.

"i always log in to check"

explain to me how thats a dead base again?

I check via a different account. I can't physically reach the account because my app reset.

I'd assume the account would win the odd defense especially if it was sitting at a low trophy range with full collectors. Plenty of people raid with gobs now.

Also I don't think bases get removed they just get pushed so far back in the queue that they are almost never seen. One defense in 8months doesn't say anything.

It's said that when you visit or revenge an account, it gets sent to the front of the matchmaking queue. This has happened a few times when I try to revenge someone and I visit their base to check if they have CC troops and when I try to revenge them again, they're already under attack. Although, it might depend on trophy level and town hall level because other people who I have visited who have full collectors did not get attacked.

"...for months it has been at 175..." I'd say that is proof dead bases ARE removed.

I have an account which I haven't been on in about 8 months. I always check it to see if it has been attacked. I now know for sure it has because the number of defences on the 'Unbreakable' achievement has gone up. For months it has been at 175, but today I checked and it was at 176. As it is a rushed TH7, I assume this number has not gone up in a while because most people win their attacks against it. Since I stopped playing on the account, the number of trophies has decreased by about 300, further proof that dead bases are not removed from the game.

lies. I was inactive for 8 months (just after elixir/wall upgrades), and when I came back I hadn't been attacked in 44 days

"...for months it has been at 175..." I'd say that is proof dead bases ARE removed.

But then why would it be brought back? I think bases are pushed towards the back of the pile if they are inactive, not removed. There is a thread somewhere that explains it very well if I can find it.
