I would say that the very strongest players would not be overly bothered - they are already buying far more than 150 coupons a day, and if anything are probably slightly annoyed that cheap players are able to even scratch them after they spend so much. The only ones who would really complain are those on the tier below mega whales, but if they are paying nothing into the game then what loss would they really be if they were to disappear?

It must be very different on some servers, but on mine (a merged server) the top 5 are big cash spenders who plunder for entertainment but do not care much either way (you do always see them on support) then you have about 15-20 who have paid nothing and are consistently ranked 10,000 power higher than everybody else because they plunder 150 coupons every single day and have alt accounts just in case pickings are slim. There are plenty of paying players ranked below these parasites who can never catch up, and are plundered instantly if they run a convoy (why can they not get support, you ask, well that is because all the top players are in the same group and deny entry to anyone else so that they get easier plunders).

This simply loses money for the game and fun for the players.

A lot of the players I have seen are saying how "free" players can not have anything in the game without plunder. Well what about paying players who are getting mashed because they cannot keep up with a guy who earns 150 coupons a day - approximately 4500 coupons a month for nothing, often not even earned by legitimate means.

Paying players need to be given priority, even if they are low power guys who just want to collect all the ninjas and play once or twice a day, they are the ones paying to keep this game running not the guys who have got to 70-80k power purely off exploiting every game mechanic and putting nothing back.

I reckon if coupon plunders disappeared overnight, within a couple of months we would see a drastic change in the order of power in almost all servers.
