I keep that side open to mine for food but no longer receive pieces because when you hit 1,000 (or 999) it stops giving them to you except for 'prizes' (which we can't use). I've crafted the mining dragon already so I mine that side for food also. As far as silver pieces, I now have more than 1,000,000,000 - yes, billion. And I know players who have double that. There is literally nowhere to spend it. When I pop in to battle I often don't even bother collecting them.
We used to receive gold for Chapter prizes in Dragon Tales and for reaching certain points in the tournaments, so even if you couldn't win the dragon, you'd get some gold along the way. With some effort and planning, World Events could be finished with everyone working toward a final community goal. It was FUN! For everyone. (At least everyone I knew.)
Frustrations are felt by those of use who have invested a LOT of time (and money) in a game that no longer seems to value us. It would be great if all players were considered when determining 'prizes'. I'm sure nearly everyone would like 5 gold as a Chapter prize. Seems like an easy fix to please all and S8 wouldn't lose a ton of $ by doing it.
Having said all that, I will be playing this Tales because I'm still collecting tickets.
