Now, it doesn't matter if you are free player or have spent $1,000's in gold, everyone on your rivals list can rob you and their is nothing you can do about it, even spending thousands more won't help you defend your hood.
First, it's a big F U, to all those players who spent $1,000's in order to get stronger then their rivals, since in a single move Gree has undone all their efforts. And for that you have to understand their frustration. And second, it completely discourages spending gold to get stronger going forward because what's the point? you will just be matched against stronger players.
BTW, obviously, the second one I'm ok with, because I'd rather be a free player at this point anyway....
