  • Screen is freezing

    If the screen is freezing or lagging then do clear your browser cache and flash cache memory

    Some more tips to avoid freezing of the screen.

  • Use a good anti-virus program. This is the most important piece of work in preventive maintenance. Installing the anti virus program is not good enough. You should do following as well:

    Set-up the program to download and install updates automatically.

    Schedule periodic full system scans.

    Check the virus definitions date regularly and see whether it is up to date.

  • Set-up your PC to Download and install “Windows Updates" automatically. Windows updates include Operating System patches for bugs and PC security related issues. These patches can reduce many unknown computer problems.

  • Install anti Spyware program to detect Spyware tools.

  • Install a Personal Firewall. Most of the anti virus programs are bundled with Personal Firewalls these days. Personal firewall is a barrier between your PC and the outside world. This can protect your PC from hackers and Spyware tools.

  • Do not download and install unknown software from Internet. This is the biggest mistake most of the PC users are doing. Some of this software can damage the Windows registry, which cause lot of errors.
  • Uninstall unnecessary programs installed in your PC.
  • Be very careful when you download anything from the Internet. Always stick to one trustworthy web site
  • Perform Scandisk periodically to check the Hard Drive
  • Delete temporary Internet files and everyday clear your flash cache memory after using Internet.
    You do clear your flash cache memory here.. Delete all websites stored on your PC.
  • Download Web Security Guard at Web Security Guard or download the SiteAdvisor plug-in, both protect you from most web based security threats and annoyances.
  • Always use google chrome to play big farm and use other web browser ( like mozilla firefox ) or other stuffs.

    An excellent compendium of information, Prince Manish, but I see a couple of problems:

    1) Lower level players will feel cheated if they're expecting the 74-happiness decoration and get the small one instead, so you need to make it very clear that the happiness of the event-prize decoration for all three events is different depending on your level. The Mysterious Fairy Tale Tower, Stately Fairy Tale Tower, Small Tea Garden, and Cosy Tea Garden are missing from your lists.

    2) The happiness of several decorations is wrong. The thicket is 39, not 38. The log bridge is 18, not 19. The koi pond is 71, not 74. There's a good spreadsheet for decorations here, which includes happiness per square, happiness per farm dollar, and happiness per gold. If I recall correctly, it was rhon3 who posted and maintains it.

    Maybe the worldwide solution is to remove all the punctuation, then, since everybody uses different punctuation in different places? If we're going to have trouble reading it anyway, it might was well be in a troublesome format that everyone is familiar with! ;>

    I think too that the nursery seeds were changed in the amount harvested and the times shortened.

    Most of them were. The changes, including upgrade and some running costs, are here.

    This post is very helpful. It is full of most of the necessary information for the game. I wish I would discover this way earlier, before starting the events, but I am sure it will help a lot in future events/tasks. Million thanks.

    The only way to do so is to contact support. And support will only change her user name when it is truly necessary - which means, if it is offensive for other players. They will not just change it because she does not like it.

    Also, next time please use the edit button instead if posting multiple times.

    The crowbar is in the crate when you click on it. You need to pay a lot of gold to buy it though. And you can only use it once. I would personally leave the crates be, but if you really want it, go check the crate :)
