    Another wanting to know when the double xp taken from us will be returned - a progress report would be useful.

    How difficult is it. Give a few cooperatives the prices they didn't receive. And put back all the boosters to the rightfull owners. 
    But unfortunately. The team wasn't even able to say something about it. No word of apology, no hint of the moment it will be fixed, no nothing at all.
    I wonder, is this robbery a part of the general  terms. Please mods, show the article where this is written. And don't tell me that the CM is doing such a good job. For he isn't doing that right now. I am just pissed off. The average pig on my main farm could have done a better job.

    An article regarding Europe's NEW privacy policy, GDPR.

    Great article!

    Thank you seeker1 for that info on GDPR ..... 

    I am happy about 99999+ instead of 9999+

    Larger upcoming features ... i feel it has to do with the 4th farm...... if it is  ...  that will be a boost to player's interest..... a new farm with more plots to open and do new stuff is always welcomed. I just hope the rewards we get out of the new farm are well thought and are worth playing the 4th farm. If the new farm comes and disappoints  player's, it will be a big set back for BF. I hope that wont happen. 

    "We’re currently working on bigger projects and features to come in future updates and outstanding bug fixes and compensations."

    WW mentioned it twice .... about big features, ....... surely there is something around the corner ... im waiting :)

    Thank you Seeker1 for the link to CM Hunters post regarding the double xp time that was stolen from many of us.  I will wait patiently for the situation to be fixed.  

    I appreciate fellow players who find such info for us as I'm not so savvy finding things on the forum.  I know it's in our nature to complain when something goes wrong but until someone sees that an answer has been posted somewhere on the forum regarding such matters people will continue to complain.  I for one will be happy when we receive back what was taken from us.

    I do hope that the staff members who are away at present can resolve their issues, whether they are sick or have family members on the sick list or for whatever the reason can return to their rightful position & hopefully help fix our concerns.  Speedy recovery for all.  :)

    sorry guys if I go back to the EU regulations for a moment...

    Every player who opened the game after today's update has found a window asking to agree (electronic signature) with the terms of use. 

    I need help on this matter because I didn't see anything in particular that is different in these "new" terms of use and conditions from what I had read before the update

    Did any of you spot any change ?

     thanks !

    Not sure about changes, but I love this section.

    "Goodgame Studios continuously updates, changes, and develops its online and mobile games and other services at its own discretion. Users can therefore only participate in the respective online game, mobile game, or other offer in its respective form provided at any given time. Goodgame Studios retains the right to cease operating an online or mobile game or remove a specific service without explanation."

    So they are saying they can do what they want, when they want, without any consideration for the players. At a minimum I think there should be a months notice of changes, 6 months notice if they want to shut the game down. A player reading that would think twice about paying for this game, knowing that all they invest could be gone without notice or explanation at anytime.

    Mark


    nice one Mark :-)

    I believe that paragraph means that the game is evolving and that users cannot ask to play a previous version or retain a previous version, which is only possible for games that can be used offline 

    and of course if the company can no longer develop the game in some economically viable form they will have to abandon the product

    :-)

    I just hope that day never comes ......when GGS has to shut down BF.

    To be honest, people working at BF , even the moderators here , must be in love with the game just like us.
    I agree they must be getting paid as well, but they must love the game a lot too.

    Hate to break it to you but the Mods & Comm Managers are players just like you and me that do this for all of us on their time and do not get paid for it ;-))

    Is this data protection?

    Good day for all,

    I want to ask, what the hell is goin on here? I got two emails from GGS one written in polish language, the other one in hungarian. What was addressed to me, was in polish language, the hungarian email was addressed to komoot15051, with this name no player exist on HU server. The emailbeginning with the following text ... what wasnt addressed to me:

    "Thank you for trusting us and providing us with information. Your data will be handled with care."

    However, tell me please, how we can believe  that our information is in safe with GGS ? Andwhy i got polish language email to my address ? I dont speak polish, just hungarian and english a bit, i am registered on HU server.

    I was also wondering about their privacy policy.  I received the e-mail addressed to me, (one in English, one in Polish) but also one with someone elses name.  Not a good look GGS

    I must say that on the surface things don't look very good for this so called "privacy policy" (at least on the HU1 or AU1 servers).  I will keep a close watch out!  Thanks for the "heads-up" of this potential privacy mishap.
