Hi all,

Whilst we do encourage players to discuss their issues with other players and with us, we will not allow any further threads that may be seen as giving encouragement to others to not buy gold or suggesting a boycott of purchasing gold.

Regards,
Ethan

While I can understand that GG doesn't like bad publicity, this kind of heavy handed. When, where and how I spend my hard earned cash is entirely up to me. 99% of the time, if I'm not happy with the service or item(s) purchased, I am able to voice my displeasure. If I feel I am not getting my money's worth, I am able to contact the seller/provider and let them know that their product/service isn't worth my money.

I realize I don't have to buy gold if I dont' want to. That's not the point. I would buy gold, a ton of it if I felt it was worth it. (and not being forced down my throat everytime I log on)

    I haven't seen where they told you you couldn't voice your displeasure. If you are unhappy and don't want to buy gold, that is your decision. People have to make up their own minds about buying it or not.

    Suzahnnah, you're more than welcome to voice your opinion, we just ask that it's done respectfully, which I'm sure it will be. :)

    What will immediately be shut down now is any attempt by a member to persuade another to not buy gold.

    Good morning Suzahnnah,

    Honestly, i think you have misunderstood what that thread was about and my response to it.

    As Kat Nip has already pointed out that is not what I am saying. Of course you are welcome to share your opinions and thoughts with us, thats part of the reson why we have this forum. The point is though that we will not allow players to use our own website to try and organise a boycott in order to blackmail us into changing something in the game. If you do not wish to purchase gold then that is the decision and I respect that. However, if you start telling others to do the same to force through changes then the thread will be deleted.

    Regards,
    Ethan.

    I'm surprised GG thinks that players are that easily influenced that they will do something just because another player suggests they should. Playing without gold is a very different game to playing with gold. If people are buying less gold then it is likely this is to do with the cost of the game, not because other people are disgruntled. I bought quite a lot of gold at the start of the game, now I only use gold to buy land to expand my farm and nothing else. I happen to think the gold is expensive, I read other people's posts here, but I made my own decision about how much gold to buy. And before you delete this post, I am not suggesting to others that they should or should not buy gold.

    Interestingly GG is happy to create numerous game initiatives designed to encourage people to buy gold, but is upset by a few miffed posters who think their tactics are greedy, maybe they are fretting because people are buying less gold!!!

    it is not surprising at all Emma, if you look on the first page in this suggestion part of the forum, you can see a thread asking players not to buy any gold and quite some members got influenced by it. and people are very easily influenced, specially on the internet.

    And I understand people aren't happy about some things in this game, there's a few things I'd rather see changed as well, but most of the people who participated in that thread, have been playing for quite a bit, so there must be many reasons why they DO play this game.
    And if they boycott GGS's income, they will have to fire all the designers and we won't get anything anymore.
    No designers, means no more updates, means that the game will eventually die, which would be silly just because people don't like a few features in the game .

    I believe many people, including GGS, have misinterpreted the protest. The protest was a warning to GGS that what they've been doing, and continue to do, is upsetting their paying customers. It also was a survey to find out how many players will not buy gold until things change.

    The naive and silly remark by CM Malreyn, that GGS "will not allow any further threads that may be seen as giving encouragement to others to not buy gold or suggesting a boycott of purchasing gold" is another example of the ineptitude of GGS at maintaining a happy paying customer base. Simply put GGS is shouting "WE DO NOT KNOW HOW TO RUN A BUSINESS" and they are unwilling to accept suggestions and criticism from their most important fans - paying customers.

    So yes, this thread topic is accurate - "Ouch, we got told". GGS has told us to take our time, support, and money elsewhere.

    You may have seen it that way, but it also serves the purpose of gathering support for possible action.

    I could not disagree with you more on that point. It has no connection to that at all, i am just trying to put out the message that we will not allow you to do that hear. If you owned a shop would you allow people to stand in your shop and suggest that maybe people shouldn't buy there? We are willing to accept suggestions and criticism from the players and that is being passed on to the development team

    Well what is the progress then on such topics like composter upgrade, revision of the mission setup, transfer decos from one farm to another, shared construction slots? These are NOT new topics, and yet we get silly updates that LOTS of people do not want like different fence and the prank/gift update. I will not invest money in a game that ignores requests to make the game better.

    Hi monica79538,
    Well what is the progress then on such topics like composter upgrade,
    I don't know what composter upgrade you are talking about. If you PM me a link to the topic i will take a look at it.
    revision of the mission setup, transfer decos from one farm to another, shared construction slots?
    All of these have already been discussed in the sticky thread for suggestions. Shared construction slots would also be included in having a second build slot, but i'll see what i can find out to confirm it.

    As i believe has already been stated elsewhere, just because an item has been suggested does not necessarily mean it will not be included even if you personally believe it would make the game better. At the end of the day if you want information ask me or the moderators for it!

    A good business leader listens to his paying customers, but the problem with all these free games, they dont care about them, get as much money as you can get, then do some stupid updates NOBODY wants, everyone stops playing, make a new game and start all over, thats how they work. Some other game developer i wont mention here, has done exactly the same. They lost 2/3 of their paying customers. So the game will die out and then they cookup something new.

    I mean, come on, that poll was there for MORE then 2 months, and now suddely it is not appropiate? Thats how interested they are, look at the forum once every 2 months perhaps, see if players have some complaints, pffffftt...

    Those are things that I might be willing to buy gold. If i don't see them in an update--my money stays in my pocket. I do believe that you and Latten have posted comments about the composter so you find the post, holding my last bit of patience to buy gold for another game.

    This is exactly what I've been commenting in some other threads. The idea that the development team actually considers the suggestions that come from this forum is an illusion. Will they assign people to sit down and listen to the suggestions? Yes. Will they seriously consider them? No. They might go ahead and include a couple of things here and there but nothing that will deviate the development team from their planned production schedule. Development teams always have a production plan in place that sets what is going to be delivered and approximately when it will be delivered. Once they complete that, they'll just go back to drawing board and start fresh for a whole new game. It's easier to start something new than to fix/drastically change something already existing.

    To be honest this thread existed before there were any rules about it not being allowed. Does that mean we don't listen? No not at all.
    Those are things that I might be willing to buy gold. If i don't see them in an update--my money stays in my pocket.
    As i have said that is completely fine. It is totally your decision if you choose to buy gold or not.
    Will they assign people to sit down and listen to the suggestions? Yes. Will they seriously consider them? No.
    Quite honestly how much consideration it gets depends on how it fits into the plans for the game. Big Farm is still a fairly new game and so therefore not many ideas have been added, but there have been plenty added in on other games. Not all suggestions get accepted by the project team, but i can tell you that the ones which are accepted are carefully considered. That doesn't mean that they will be included if they can't be made to fit.

    I think the main thing to remember here is that we welcome your suggestions, but that is what they are - "suggestions". They are not demands and ultimately it is down to the designers if they wish to include them or not. That does not means that suggestions are not considered, but just because it doesn't get added to the game does not mean it wasn't considered and discussed. We'd love to be able to include all your suggestions, but then it is impossible for us to predict where the game will be headed in a years time. All i'm trying to say here is that if you don't want to purchase gold for whatever reason then that is your decision to make, but don't make threads telling others to do the same just because you are not happy that we haven't used an idea.

    This isn't about holding out just because we think our ideas aren't part of the game. I think people understand here that the suggestions they give out aren't always going to make it into the game. What you guys are failing to understand is that you have fundamental flaws in the game right now that are costing people valuable time, money (both virtual and real) and causing, at times, an unpleasant experience. People have been losing gold left and right because they accidentally hit the skip button on their buildings when the options come up. It has been asked several times that something be changed about that and suggestions have been made. This has been going on for months and not only has GGS not done anything about it, but they don't even try and work something out with the people who have lost gold that way. When is GGS going to accept a flaw in that design and change it? Instead we get things like updated fences, pranking/gifting, camping, etc.

    People love this game and that is the reason they are so passionate about the things they protest. Don't continue giving people more reasons to leave.

    I feel like I'm the only one ageeing with Malreyn here. Some people might see that as licking up, but believe me, if I disagree with something, I will tell him that too, while always trying to stay polite.

    I think it is pretty great that a post such as this, indeed encouraging people not to buy gold, has existed for so long and that the CM team actually took the time to answer in it a couple of times. I personally would've closed it a long time ago!

    Ofcourse a good business listens to their customers and I believe we do get listened to. But there is no way in this part of the universe that they can keep every customer happy! I really liked Malreyns reply saying that you don't want people standing in your shop telling other people not to buy there. I would kick those people out of my shop too, and of they'd continue on the sidewalk, I'd kick them there too!

    We are still encouraged to voice our opinions, but no rebellious posts anymore, that suggest to others not to buy gold anymore as well. I did not agree with that poll at all and I am not even sure if I answered somewhere there or just voted I will keep buying gold.
    I don't buy much gold, my bank account does not allow me to, but I do buy from time to time, because I like the game! Yes ofcourse there are some things I'd really like to see changed, but I am not going to demánd that, or as a matter of fact trying to blackmail the developpers into changing those things.

    And about being heard: I once suggested goats, and they are here!! Being a very modest woman, I ofcourse believe they were put into the game because of my suggestion ;)

    Perhaps what is needed is more feedback from GGS in response to suggestions. Many suggestions are reworded, repeats of earlier suggestions - players often asking for the same thing. If there was feedback I think players would be happier knowing that the suggestion has been heard. The frustration in part comes from not knowing. A 'no, won't happen', 'will be discussed in upcoming meetings' 'possibly may happen', 'under discussion', 'unlikely to happen' etc from GGS would make a big difference I think, then we can stop asking for the same things and be patient waiting. We know GGS has their timetable and accept that suggestions, if they can be implemented, may take time to address.

    Hi monica79538,


    I don't know what composter upgrade you are talking about. If you PM me a link to the topic i will take a look at it.

    The thread has been archived but my suggestion was the following:

    Suggestion: Composter Levels 4&5, unlock super humus production

    Currently we have 3 levels of composter. These are shown, followed by the proposed levels in red. The table includes columns for the idea of producing super humus which would be unlocked at level 4.

                            HUMUS              [color=red]SUPER HUMUS[/color]

      2         23       18    2:30     04  
      3         41       16    1:30     08
      [color=red]4         53       14    0:55     14      60    4:00
      5         63       12    0:35     22      54    2:30[/color][/size]
    

    Hopefully this will deal with those "suffering" a surplus of leaves. :)

I can't find them through the pile of posts. Should i keep looking and send the links just so that they can tell me "oh yeah that one" & "NO you can't".

    Morning MenaceDawg1980,
    What you guys are failing to understand is that you have fundamental flaws in the game right now that are costing people valuable time, money (both virtual and real) and causing, at times, an unpleasant experience. People have been losing gold left and right because they accidentally hit the skip button on their buildings when the options come up. It has been asked several times that something be changed about that and suggestions have been made. This has been going on for months and not only has GGS not done anything about it, but they don't even try and work something out with the people who have lost gold that way. When is GGS going to accept a flaw in that design and change it?

    Actually I would disagree there. We are aware that there are problems with the game but just because they don't get instantly fixed doesn't mean that we don't care about them. I think we will have to agree to disagree on the "skip" button. I've seen it before where players make out that its our fault because we don't put in confirmations and protection against pressing it rather than accepting responsibility because they pressed it. You have to look at it from both sides. If you wanted to use the skip button a lot to quickly grow and had to keep clicking confirmations every 2 seconds would you be happy about that?


    Hi aussiefarmgal,
    Perhaps what is needed is more feedback from GGS in response to suggestions. Many suggestions are reworded, repeats of earlier suggestions - players often asking for the same thing. If there was feedback I think players would be happier knowing that the suggestion has been heard. The frustration in part comes from not knowing.

We know GGS has their timetable and accept that suggestions, if they can be implemented, may take time to address.
    I think there are two possible issues here. The first is as you mentioned, suggestions being made over and over again. In some cases I’m sure that some of these have already been answered but because people have not searched the forum first then maybe there wouldn't be so much disappointment and feeling that suggestions have been ignored. It would also be easier from our point of view if people kept suggestions in a single thread per idea rather than 5 threads all for the same thing. Secondly, the meeting with the development team only happen every couple of weeks. Since there is no way for me to pass these suggestions on until that meeting then there may be delays in getting the information back to the community between the meetings. It is also harder for me to find the good suggestions if people keep creating new threads for the same ideas of continuing to suggest things that we have already said won't be put in. However, i do take your feedback on board and will see what we can do to improve the process.

    Hi Rusty Farmer,
    Suggestion: Composter Levels 4&5, unlock super humus production

    Currently we have 3 levels of composter. These are shown, followed by the proposed levels in red. The table includes columns for the idea of producing super humus which would be unlocked at level 4.
    I'm sorry, but I can tell you right away that this is not a suggestion that would not be included. There are always going to be items that you can only get for gold and it will stay that way since we do want players to have reasons to purchase gold. By increasing the availability of super humus it effectively starts to impact on the balance of the game. If we included that then people would start wanting to be able to produce all the other super versions and suddenly there is no reason to use the normal ones anymore.
    Thanks Rusty--& there are several other complete threads of the topic--this is the last one started by Rockmeamadeus ( not correct spelling, but don't see him posting as much), the first one was started by another player and i can't remember who started it, but i think around November-ish and i started one about 4 months ago.

    monica79538,

    I am sure you are aware that i have only been with this community for just over a month. As much as i would love to go through and read everything on the forum that is just simply not possible for me. You can't expect me to know about every single thing and then complain when i am not familiar with something that as you pointed out was started months ago. I accept the fact that suggestions have been missed and i will talk to the moderators and see if we can find a better way to handle them all.

    Regards,
    Ethan

    There's a way, more board mods, there's only a few I've seen posting in the last 2 months and since they're not on all the time, and probably also have something called "Social life" it is highly possible they miss quite a few things, which I totally understand.

    CM Malreyn, the super humus idea for the composter was only part of the idea. There is still the propoiation of increase to levels 4 and 5 for increase of normal humus production, the problem being more leaves than people can handle, thousands stocked up with no chance of clearing them. Not that the leaves are doing any harm being there, but doesn't that imply some sort of imbalance to the game at the upper levels? Shouldn't there always be the danger of shortage of an item at any level?

    While an increase in the levels of the composter would be good, the problem I can see is where will it end? If the developers update the composter so we can get level 4 and 5, then everyone will want the same for the silo, the mill etc. Which, admittedly would also be good as everyone gets further in the game, but I'm guessing its not an easy thing for developers to just do and no doubt half the farmers will then be annoyed that an update is focused on that instead of other things people want more. Glad I'm not a game developer and I'm just a player :)

    I believe that we have to be more realistic when playing a Game online. I payed for a LOT of Gold in another game a few years ago. I LOVED the Game so much and it was like a small world within my real world. I went there when i needed to relax. The game included strategy and planning like this game and it had an endless streem of possibilities regarding decorations and space...Just an amazing game. Suddenly we got a notification stating that the game would close within the next month. I was Devostated because i had put so much time, effort and love into the game....AND i also spent a lot of my hard earned real cash into it.
    I realized that the players have no say,,,,nothing belongs to us, and the games are there to make profit...HUGE profit in shortest possible time before the game shuts down and they start another game. I now play with a totally different approach to it. I spend no Gold right now, but if i find it worthwhile i MIGHT buy some Gold to give me a little advantage later on. I know the realities of it now, and i am thankful for what is given me for free as long as the game is still running. Then i will move on to the next game without feeling the way i did when my miniworld was shut down back then.
    I think GGS would benefit from letting their players say what they want to regarding buying Gold in the Game. GGS will make a lot of money from those who cant resist anyway... Better to have happy costumers then unhappy ones. I think people arent that easily led on by others...they are capable of making their own decicions :)

    well i posted a few of the links to connect you direct to the discussions--& still not enough for you to read them? Maybe some of the topics discussed in so many threads are important to us and are ones that we really want and might be willing to buy gold to have them.

    Not that the leaves are doing any harm being there, but doesn't that imply some sort of imbalance to the game at the upper levels? Shouldn't there always be the danger of shortage of an item at any level?
    Since humus is a secondary optional item and it cannot be directly be sold i wouldn't really say that it was causing an imbalance. If the designers thought that could have been a problem it most likely would have been fixed before now.

    While an increase in the levels of the composter would be good, the problem I can see is where will it end? If the developers update the composter so we can get level 4 and 5, then everyone will want the same for the silo, the mill etc.
    Actually Soneeya, you've made a very good observation there. It's not as simple as simply making a change, but also to consider the knock on changes that the change would have both inside the game and in the expectations of the player.

    What makes you think i haven't read them? I've read through each of those threads (even though the only mention of the topic in it was because you posted it there) but i have no updates to give at the moment. All I know at the moment is that the idea of having a second composter has already been made but was not accepted into the game. I would imagine that given this idea is very similar that it would be the same, but i will foward it on.

    Regards,
    Ethan.

    As in other games I assume the Mods are doing all this EXTRA work in the interest of the game and players for FREE...so I for one think they are doing far more then I have seen in other games, where the answers seemed to be cut and paste from a handbook of excuses. So THANK YOU for all your work in this game MODs. Be safe and God bless.

    Morning MenaceDawg1980,

It has been asked several times that something be changed about that and suggestions have been made. This has been going on for months and not only has GGS not done anything about it, but they don't even try and work something out with the people who have lost gold that way. When is GGS going to accept a flaw in that design and change it?


    Actually I would disagree there. We are aware that there are problems with the game but just because they don't get instantly fixed doesn't mean that we don't care about them. I think we will have to agree to disagree on the "skip" button. I've seen it before where players make out that its our fault because we don't put in confirmations and protection against pressing it rather than accepting responsibility because they pressed it. You have to look at it from both sides. If you wanted to use the skip button a lot to quickly grow and had to keep clicking confirmations every 2 seconds would you be happy about that?

    I have to agree with CM Marleyn, it would make you click too much, if you want to win a mission with gold :p
