My thoughts exactly.

Or, the developer's limited time and resources could be better spent on problems that haven't been solved already.

Yeah I agree that this is a non-issue. Even if you manage to click a shiny gem button without looking and then accept a 2nd confirmation by ignoring the text gem cost is only 9. Pretty sure BB does not want to hinder and complicate gem features usage any more than have to by adding even more popups.

That you don't think the issue is important enough for a fix is one thing, but it false to claim it's already been solved, if it was already solved I wouldn't be here asking.

There is nothing they can do to prevent your lack of attention to what you are being told, it does not matter what solutions they put in place the problem will persist because at the end of the day it is your fault which meant you spent gems. The only solution is for you to take more care.

wowser dorotheus, we agree for once...lol. as you say no matter how many warnings some get they are always going to simply click fest away. Same people are no doubt the ones wanting to be able to retreat explorers and geos when they send them on the wrong searches.

I feel this thread has run its course.

-1 not needed, plenty of warnings and pretty much impossible to accidentally purchase if you read what is on your screen before clicking
