It used to be a net loss: even after you cleaned up the vandalism, you would be lower than before, and the only way to make it up was to build more Training Walls. It doesn't seem to be that way anymore. It seems cleaning up vandalism brings me back up to 5 stars, and not a constant drop like I remember seeing back in 2014 before my tablet crashed. So I think vandalism these days really is only a temporary loss to the vandalized, and a permanent loss to the vandalizer, or maybe not even that. All the guides that explain the rules are several years old. I don't think this is really the place to discuss this...but, that said... I've never thought much about vandalizing a building as being a loss. It's part of the game. Beyond that, it's NEVER been an issue for me in the game, not for a VERY long time. It's SO easy to mitigate or offset any damage that might be done by vandalism simply by HIDING training walls behind other buildings. There is SO much dead space in this game because you only see from the one angle. There is always dead space behind buildings where you can hide training walls completely out of site. Just grab a training wall and start moving it around and you'll find tons of places where it will fit and where it won't be seen. Often, behind bigger buildings you can hide several training walls. Things like behind the stadiums and grocery store and really any bigger building. Just look and you'll find many places to hide them. I have so many hidden in my town that I've never had to worry about vandalism. In fact, I have people that, that's all they do is vandalize, it's their "thing". Doesn't effect my rating at all and hasn't for very long time. Try hiding some training walls you'll be happy you did. You'll be done with the issue and won't have to worry about it anymore.
