If you didn't ALLOW anyone to hire more than 2 workers at a time - you wouldn't have the problem of "crashes" in the first place!!! I've been on small farms with 13 other workers - that's insane!!!! And if you didn't permit people to hire plowers while harvesters were still working on the farm - at the SAME TIME often - you would also cut down on the "jumping around" and avitars "crashing into each other." With this new change I've been on farms where some players haven't, apparently, been as affected as others!!! That's just WRONG!! I now hate to hire or be hired, too! Heck - if folks don't like Farm Town, they can go to FARMVILLE!!
I totally agree with you on allowing ppl to hire more than 2 ppl. THAT is what they should have changed instead of the way we harvest and plow!!! And I HATE Farmville.....lol. It's not as awesome as Farm Town
