Last statement in this email is incorrect "NO KNOW ISSUES"
Well that is wrong. I can not send any hire friends to earn farm cash. I can not work any "hires from friends to earn farm cash. This all occurred when you release a new update on March 10. Please fix this. I love the game but can not stand when you update and break things and then do not fix it.
Just saying ....Help. Other wise you guys do a great job on keeping it interesting.

Thanks, Raul & other devs!!

Thanks Raul and other devs.....I love all the things you have brought to our farms to make them more interesting. I have not failed a quest yet and have done over 40 of them. Keep up the great work. Best Farm game going!

Not a complaint, but possibly could you think about letting the "gray" rabbits too be counted in the overall harvest of the "rabbit fleece" please? I just don't want to keep buying rabbit hutch after rabbit hutch to ensure I get enough rabbit fleece. Don't mind buying the white rabbit either, but at least it would give us "more" rabbit fleece overall. Thanks for the great game, thanks for allowing it to be played at our own pace - that's the biggest seller of this game for me!! Can't wait for the next Farm release.

Did you harvest the sunflowers or did you hire someone to harvest them? You have to harvest them yourself.

The offer is random, if you haven't got all 30 fc, then it may appear again... however if you have already received a total of 30fc you wont see the blue banner anymore.
