Welcome them to FT, and encourage them to visit and browse the forum.... it might make for better players who might stick around longer.

i have advised people in the markets to frequent or check out the forums. for the most part i am told that the forums are a waste of time and for me to go $%#! myself.

For the work requests to me it is a way to quickly see how many have worked my facilities so I know when to refill.

I, too, like to use it to keep track of what I have sent. Another bonus of using the like button, is that when my neighbors like a bonus they collected from a neighbor that I don't have, I can choose to also collect that bonus, without having to be their neighbor!

I wish in the next update, that we would get more things to do with what we already have. I get excited over new crops, new items in the store, new things to make in the facilities we already own, and new levels. I am truly tired of seeing new facilities that I have no room for. I can buy what I want, though I choose not to. The bigger sizes to upgrade the farms to are enough to keep me busy for longer than a year. Give us new signs, people, cars, whatever, but can we slow down on the facilities for a while? I have seen and given lots of suggestions for the existing facilities and would love for them to expand!!! Love, love, love this game!

This game has not moved any distance since it came out.

It is still in Beta.

Or is that just so, when something doesn't work right, someone can say: It's won't always work, until it comes out of Beta.

Any game that you can play for 3 years without dropping it is pretty good - been playing since about May 2009 I think. It is natural for people to get bored and move on but I think the developers of this game are doing pretty well.

Most of them have so much "clutter" on their farms, I don't understand how they can have any fun at all. Yet they are the most active of all my 70 or more neighbors. Their type of play, IMHO, is a vicious circle of work, work, work.

The ones who do seem to actually have the most FUN, work their farms most days for a couple of hours or less, don't need EVERY facility, don't worry about spending a few bucks of their own.

I don't know what "time-served" triggers one to leave the game. Let's face it, those of us who have played for 2-3 years are perhaps unusual for this type of internet game.

Some play for a while and move on to the next of so many games available.
Some give it a try, prefer action games and move on.

I used to get anxious for the next farm. Now I have plenty to do with 14 farms, 10 30x30 farms, re-designs, etc. And two accounts I manage. I have tons of inventory and could post many times a day. Sometimes I just harvest cows and hens and visit the forum.

But I do think that if more players visited the forum for information and input, they would stick around longer. The game may not last forever ( ), but the distance it has come since 3/09 is remarkable. So I guess I will be around for a while longer.

Sure wish the devs advertised the game more.

Forever Beta! A few more years and maybe more. I have quit trying to get more EX's as I am not in any race for XP’s as well I’m aware that there are more than a few that have more than I, as I am only at 62 million XP’s now only been playing a year and well 11 months now. But I built an airport on one of my two farm towns, as well as I now have a train. Love the restaurants around the world. Biger farms? More various Crops, flowers or trees? This is not a simple game to program and to maintain and that all costs money for the programmers and developers. Love the game, please keep it up, and thanks Slashkey for a very fine and complex game, from another mainframe programmer and contractor with 40+ years experience, this is a wonderful game in my opinion.

Hey! I hit the poke button with a neighbor of mine then she pokes me back later, so I poke her back and she pokes me back.

I ain't cot a clue what that's all about.

I've stopped doing the like buttons completely, as I got way too many ads doing that.
