Now this is only a game, but it is loosely based upon real life incidents. Farming. In real life, farmers absolutely depend 100% on having a calendar, not just for future events but also past events. A farmer wants to plant a new crop dependent upon getting some rain early on in that crop. First thing he does is to check back on the past calendars to see when rain occurred and how much of it. Then he has to pay attention to the weather forecast and map out the possible days of upcoming rain and plant accordingly. The same pattern occurs for sheep farmers wanting to shear the flock. You can't shear wet sheep, so you have to plan. If it looks like rain, you have to muster in the mob and get them into shelter. Planning is without doubt the most important aspect of farming and in this game it is no exception.
In this game, particularly the FHWE, I do exactly that. I check past calendars for when the FHWE was on and make predictions based upon that as to when the next one will be and then look forward to getting some sort of confirmation in the next calendar. Then I start preparing. I prepare oysters but then I also second guess what other fish may follow and try to have at least enough to be prepared. It's not easy, but it's why, when I play hard, I can always be in the top 5 of the FHWE. PLANNING and planning needs a calendar.
If as somebody else suggested, GGS don't want us to have a calendar because we might complain about the changes, then GGS need to get a real life and learn to deal with adversity. They made the game and the people here are telling them of their mistakes. That is exactly what the forum is for.
i just wanted to say please stop changing it everyday not to remove it completly
im used to check it just once at start of month and then in midle of month event was not starting at thos date and it was annoying
please bring it back and pin it in general discussion tab becus thats where i check most time and sometime update notice
Ni skickade över oss till Google Chrome eller Firefox. Så roligt är inte spelet att vi går på allt ni hittar på för att tjäna pengar. Tivolit bryr jag mig över huvud taget inte om.
Nu tar ni till råga på allt bort eventkalendern. Jag fortsätter spela till mitt guld är slut, sedan skall jag ta en funderare på fortsättningen.
Vad är vitsen med twitter och Facebook. Jag är inte med i någon av dem. Den dagen som inloggningen skall gå via någon av dem, då är det slut med spelet för mig.

I'm pissed. You make the game increasingly difficult. Just too close between the events. You sent us over to Google Chrome or Firefox. So fun is not the game that we go for everything you find to make money. Tivolit I do not care at all about. Now you go to the top of all the event calendar. I keep playing until my gold is over, then I will take a thought on the continuation. What is the point of twitter and Facebook. I'm not in any of them. The day the log-in will go through one of them, then the game is over for me. Becke
This only proves that several gamers that do not feel comfortable writing in English are doomed as long as they are placed at the EN forum. They do wish to communicate, but in a langage they master. They wish to participate in the thread(s) that are present, but can´t. So they shy away from the forum.
This means that several (and that is many) are not heard.
I trust that the mods accept their inputs and take time to translate them. Demanding that all must write in English here, as long as they are stuck with this forum, is not OK.
My thoughts.
The players have to write in English for the simple reason, so that the other players understand them. Big farm forums are covered in different languages, but alas not all languages are included.
Players that are not comfortable in writing in English have two options: to provide google translate or to write in appropriate thread that covers their language (we have two such treads).
And yes, mods do translate posts and pass the "non-English" feedback as well.
Somehow google translate has stopped working for me. Not being a puter wizard I have no idea how to correct it. Did try to find other translation programs Swedish to English, but the ones I found would only translate single words *grrr*
Am grateful for your help!
@ WiseWing, unfortunately the threads you mention are not easily found. I have only seen one of them and turned away because only Finns wrote there and heh that language could as well been Greek for = impossible for Swedes, Danes, Norwegians to understand. But that is actually the lesser problem for them. Not finding reading+writing English easy (time consumming translating all) is such a put off that gamers stop logging in at the Forum. They feel alienated. Valuable information, thoughts, inputs, communication gets lost.
Facts of life.
Soooo could be it is not all that pointless, waste of our time.
We do get answers occasionally
I do however believe that you should share news with them and then thy convey it to us.
So what exactly is wrong ?
Unfortunately some have believed that the mods could do something about i. e. different game issues = had some real influence to the game. Forgetting that they are "just" unpaid moderators of the forum. Their influence is solely the forum not the game.
But believe you are right that we should continue posting. The mods forward it to the game creators so it does reach the game creators and is not in vain.
What is your guess?
Listen to your player base here... !
Sad truth is no matter how much we ask for the calendar to come back, no matter how many customers complain, we all know THEY NEVER LISTEN. Not once. How many times have players said too many cc's - have they listened? How many times have players said too many bugs - have they listened? What about extending the stalls on the PP? Reducing the overall amount of events/not having them running back to back? Starting 1/2 speed boosters when we next log on? No none of those either. This will be no different. I have never known any other business that seems to believe its customers wont walk away unless they at least try to keep them happy - and we, as players do have to take some responsibility for that - because we carry on no matter how badly they treat us.
This is absolutely ridiculous, our whole co op is just sitting here waiting for next event to find out what it is. Nobody is harvesting anything. Don't know what to be holding, What a way to make players want to leave the game, make it so they can't even play in case it put them at big disadvantage for next event.
No, tbh I doubt they are seeking to phase out BF, but they sure are doing their best to make us seek to other online games.
cant collect anything in case well fed up !!!!
