Phoenix. He was reffering to the fact someone bumped a 3 year old post. Think before you speak please
Why does it mean to "steal" in this game. How rude/annoying is it really? And how do I avoid doing it on accident?
Lol I hope you are facepalming yourself because even I can see what they are saying. And that's a funny pic lol.
Stealing means the attack... Attack is for troops, while for spies, you can either Scout/Steal/Assassinate. Scouting shows their kingdom, and it gives you a percentage for your win, like 40% chance of succeeding. Steal takes their gold, and is the primary way to strip enemies, because while you might get 12mil per steal, they lose 23 mil per steal, and they keep losing that same amount, while by attacking it drops much slower, where they first lose 35 mil, then 33, then 29, then 25, then 22, etc, while stealing might go down one mil every few hits. The last is assassinate, which takes down their attack troops, opening them up for attacks. Also, all of these, including assassinate, kill some of their spies. The most efficient way to kill someone's spies who had better spy stats than you, scout bomb them. Even if you fail, you will still destroy their spies. Did that answer your question?
I was face palming myself because they didn't realize that it was kind of obvious that I knew... Wow. Some people take this game very seriously.
