Why are people against graffiti?

I have one neighbour who only graffiti's my buildings. They will tap nothing else. This causes my five stars (that I sweated and slaved to get) to drop really frequently. Fortunately for that person I am not that bothered really about my Conformometer but I have had to place dozens of Training Walls to counter their attacks. It has got boring. I got bored by it about a year ago. However what they don't know is that they are the only neighbour I have who I NEVER help during events. I won't drop them though as I value daily players and even daily sprayers. It all adds up. I only drop neighbours who haven't played for more than two months.

and if you search the forum this has been discussed for over 3 years, you'll find lots of info!

The only reason i can think of is sometimes the righteous rating will get buggy and not go back to normal till the next day. But the part people dont get is. If they use the blue ? They would see what items affect the righteous rating. And figure out ways to hide training walls, hail ants signs, and even stop signs they could make it so that their rating never drops at all. So IMHO people over react to the graffiti thing.


As Gi-joe use to say when i was a younger version of myself And know you know, And knowing is half the battle.

i do not care if you do it in my town. Go for it my good man........

I really do try to graffiti you as often as possible! :D

The most common reason is the loss of the 5 star rating. Others have said they don't like it because it makes their towns look messy.

On the flip side, hiding training walls around your town helps you keep your 5 star rating, and graffiti from friends is a great way to get income from buildings that otherwise don't pay out. Some really like graffiti because of this.

(I personally just like it when people visit, and I really don't mind graffiti - if my 5 star rating drops its easy to add a few more training walls to boost it up again).

I think that sums it up. Did I miss anything? John? Neuro?

Also cleaning graffiti is the only way to collect anything on those buildings. I'm happy someone visited :-)

sounds good to me, all I didn't understand was the poster a few above your post. What is a blue ?

oh and I'm only against Confetti. Luckily we don't have that in the game.

Hmmm - it sounds to me like autocorrect found a victim other than me. :mrgreen:
