They have to balance ppl getting fed up and leaving, with people spending so they can keep the game running & make money.

At the moment they are having server issues because of the number of players, so if they sped up the rate at which people could attack, that would increase the load and make the game even more unstable.

To buy additional servers or bandwidth or recoding to make it more efficent or database re-indexing.... whatever it is thats causing the stability issues and they do to improve peformance is ultimately going to cost money in one way or another.

But either way, I dont think they are at the point where people are getting fed up and leaving if their servers cant handle the number of players.

In all honesty its a pretty decent game... the "youve lost your internet connection \ Server connection" error shits me to tears, as does the new "Raid bug, click back to the chat & come back to the raid" error.

But in all honesty, the support that they give with facebook questions is 10,000x better than any other iphone game Ive ever played

1.) They actually get back to you within a couple of hours

2.) They actually answer the question, (even if its not the answer you want, e.g "its a bug, we're working on fixing it") every other support for games, just denys its happening, or sends you a generic email saying test 300 things which they know have nothing to do with it, and just waste your time until they release a bug later and pretend nothing ever happened.

3.) They dont fog you off and say "Oh thats not our companies responcibility, go speak to XXXXX company.

And that all costs money, Id prefer to pay a little bit extra and get better support like that, then what the alternative is and how Ive been treated with everyother iphone game.

ALTHOUGH!!!!!!!!! The trading fiasco was a debarcal, they should have put on their FB page that its been taken down, given a reason why and an ETA of when it will be brought back up.

Anyway, my rant has gone on for so long I cant even remember what I started typing about in the first place :P
