In either case one thing they cant complain about is a loss of money and XP!!! Theres no way to please everyone but at least you have a level playing field if they arent losing money and XP.

First off, I do work in a straight line. Second, I do not beg, I am not an idiot, nor do I click all over the place. Third, I did lose XP and coins when that was a problem.
Since this update, I have not been able to finish a job due to lost connections. That, or the time it takes just to complete a job! I have also lost points today because it is still not adding right. If this upgrade was to keep people from randomly clicking, it may have fixed that problem. However, it will also keep those of us non-idiot, non-random clicking people from doing anything at all!
Random clickers are annoying, but really people, just leave the farm and get another farmer to hire you! This upgrade is ridiculous, cumbersome, and absolutely off-putting!

Please, please, please change it back. I am not a messy harvester/plower but this just annoys the heck out of me. There is nothing wrong with wanting to be fast. I would love to sit on here hours a day but I have little kids. If people want to go slow, they can click slowly, but I like to go fast...the farmers I work for like when I go fast too. I really love this game, but I think I too will quit playing if they dont change it back. It's no longer fun for me.

and if you get hired to a farm with 10 ppl harvesting and it makes it slow, then you can always leave and go get another job!!! how often is it that you get hried to back-to back-to back-to back jobs with 10+ ppl on them??? most people do not hire that many people, so chances are you'll get a better job if you just leave and go find a new one.... simple fix. now get rid of this new "upgrade".

[shayster]

I do not like the new way. I liked the older version. Nobody complained and everything was working just fine. I agree, it if ain't broke, don't fix it.

[bruhelmboldt]

Another vote for changing back to the old way. Too slow this way. I never hire more than one person and usually none, and you're slowing *me* down to help the greedy!

i WANT THE MONEY I PAID VIA PAYPAL RETURNED..... YOU CHANGED THE RULES AFTER I PAID.

THIS IS FRAUD, UNDER US LAW, AND I EXPECT A REFUND BY 7AM!

been harvesting now for over an hour with the new program.. I HATE IT.. not only is it slow.. but i keep looseing the connection... so i have to reboot all over again.. and lose that farm i was working on..
Its hard on the eyes with the 'i am busy' hangin over my aviator's head.. and the popping of the figure ..

really there has to be another way to fix the problem.. as now i see another problem ...

might be time to take a break from farming while you work this out.. my eyes can't take it..

[Frank Garzoli]

Change it back, or I quit. Period.

Don't be so quick to think 47+ pages of negative responses will do nothing. This game went from my favorite to my least favorite in the time it took me to harvest my first farm today after the upgrade. I will not play this game anymore until the so-called "fix" is fixed! I have never seen any "hackers" or people harvesting farms in 10 seconds, but even if I did how dang hard is it to leave and find a new job??? This fix has made this game intolerable and there are way too many apps out there competing for my time AND MONEY to deal with this frustration. If you are in the 0.00001 percent that likes this upgrade then good for you. I am done until its changed!

I've experienced this twice earlier while using the new method.


I was going at it plowing... Hoping around like a little jack rabbit with my little "I'm Busy" continually going off into the sky when all of a sudden I got the boots from the server. This time the box came up by itself instead of having to hit save.

I did the ole disconnect and re-connect and when I got back I was literally stuck. I could not move at all and every time I tried to click on a new harvest or plow plow it just said "I'm Busy".

Happened twice now under the new method of harvesting/plowing. Could be a further glitch.

Oh did I mention that the new method suck bigtime.

I'm with the other 99.9% posts here. If this is it. then this is it.
