the main reason why GGS say they wont do anything about this is because it would mean we would have to click more to cancel gold spending by mistake this would have a big impact on the co-op challenge aspect of the game, collecting by skipping with gold would be slowed down a lot by adding extra clicks, if two players are using gold the extra clicks would come into play fingers get tired, missing the buttons and so on, but i dont see any problem with incorporating an option into the game settings that would allow players to enable or disable gold use with in their own game, one that can be set when you want to use it or not,
GGS make money from our mistakes accidental clicking is common place with in the game and this is only my opinion so please dont attack me lol BUT some things seem to be designed so we spend gold by mistake skip buttons placed where seed selection is or fertilizer selection is placed, orchards are a good example of this i do sometimes get caught out by this and its not cheap,( edited to add this we as players have a habit of grouping things together in blocks this does make accidental skipping with orchards very easy to do) BUT it is easy money for GGS so dont expect anything to ever be done to stop us spending gold by mistake.
easy options to avoid this is dont buy gold lol
use caution when clicking gold is never refunded
imagine some one sat in the GGS office saying to a colleague i just got another one target this month almost reached
just put it down to bad luck and carry on
i used to buy gold on a regular basis when i had cash spare to play with but GGS havent done themselves any favours over the past 12 months or so to keep me as a gold buying player, i havent seen any gold bonus offers like the 150% or 200% extra gold or a combination of gold bonus offer + bonus deal packs on screen at the same time like they used to be, if i had a seaweed offer on screen and a gold bonus offer popped up at same time i would then buy gold, i now play with gold i get from the game itself cos im tight
I am careful of the blue buttons, but this didn't require a blue button. You just click the regular save button.
As expected, support's answer was too bad so sad… but we'll pass your feedback along to the team.
Swell.
Here… an oldie but a goodie. Just a small snipit, but it sure does explain this game to perfection.

do they care nah not one bit lol
When I was relatively new to the game, I had managed to amass about 10,000. (This was back when we could earn more daily.) Through a glitch, not my carelessness, it disappeared. Customer service did nothing. From that moment on, I vowed not to buy any until safeguards were in place. Still waiting.
which kinda leaves me the only option of thinking it's a deliberate, and cynical, placement that wont get changed
in a very similar vein, when the big fat *** ads pop up in the middle of the screen and you're clicking away on your fields in a mission or whatever, ive been sooooooooooooo close to it activating a gold item on offer - there literally is no warning or time delay between you clicking on your field and the ad popping up right on your click, that's nothing to do with error on the player's part and being told to be more careful doesn't fly as it literally just places itself over the object you're clicking at the instant your clicking
so yeah, they should sort that out as well - ie dont pop them up like that, just stick them up top, we're not blind
@WascallyWabbit fyi - i've just had the favourite offers (Sweet Deal) pop up and ALL gold buttons were immediately live, ie not greyed but active
this is the first offer pop up ive been able to check since the above exchange but as stated, there was certainly no delay whatsoever
i notice if you click on the menu button to bring up the sweet deal offer, the buttons are greyed out for a second (literally), this was not the case when it initially popped up
thank you
