Maxvalue reminds me of those table coaches. You know those people who constantly berate the fish and go on to the table about how good they are, needlessly telling everyone how they should play their hands.
While I have no beef with MV I think this seems right. The argument between who spends money on gems and who doesn't is irrelevant, and your poker analogy is spot on.
There are 3 types of online poker players:
-Donks who don't know how to play the game (or think they do)
-Experienced players who berate the fish for playing bad and 'getting there'
-Experienced players who know about variance and just shrug the bad beats off, knowing the fish are where their income come from
In very much the same way, gemmers are the fish to the CoC community. Not all gemmers are necessarily 'bad players' since as been stated they could just want to spend the money for enjoyment.
I got my fourth builder probably only a month after starting the game without buying gems. Some people will buy gems and rush to that point, who cares.
