Feedback: Unfair gold offer

nana28282nana28282 Posts: 133
One of our coop farmers just received an individualized 200% bonus gold buying offer that is addressed to her by name (so and so, we need hard working farmers like you, therefore you'll get 200% more gold for your money).
How fair is that to people who actually buy gold and support the creators of this game with their hard earned $$? I realize it's a way to get the 'non-buyers' to get to spending some cash as well, but it leaves the rest of the people feeling pretty bummed out

    Edited: Samty confirmed that regular gold buyers get the offer as well. Please disregard my previous post.

    if it wasn't for us gold buyers that buy gold regularly and have done for a while the game wouldn't be where it is at so no more support for the game from me and i bet a lot of gold buyers feel the same way.

    ..If you haven't noticed Bigfarm hasn't been fair to non-gold buying members for a long time. This is to try to get those who haven't paid before to actually buy.

    OH, please, this has nothing to do with making up for 'unfairness' and everything to do with sucking in more people to start buying. And it is VERY unfair to gold buyers, since Bigfarm depends on those people for their livelihood

    I think this offer really is random. I do buy gold, not a lot and not regularly but I do buy gold. But I have this 200% offer

    I expect we will all get this offer, eventually, and at different times. Some of us have it sooner rather than later

    Yes, everyone will get it at some point. :)

    I'm a gold buyer also and I received the offer so it's not just for those that don't buy gold.

    oh wow there is a 200% gold offer going around get out? Could someone please give me some details on this? is it like the 100% off where you get to pick a package. Is it only offered to lower level players. Will it come to my farm eventually? Please let me know. thanks! I am excited! I hope i get one eventually. Cool!
  • edited 12.03.2014
    I got the offer tonight and it lasted for 80 minutes or so. It merely allows you to buy gold in the usual way but you will get triple the normal amounts of gold for doing so in addition to any Prime Day that might be running at the same time.

    I used to be a gold user but then I left the game for personal Real Life reasons. I only came back on to fix my G and F Farms because I stuffed them as an experiment just before I left and my O.C. compulsions forced me to come back and fix them up....

    ... so if anyone asks? I was never here.

    Could people please advise here if they have gotten the offers if they have spent on gold or not at all or in between. I find this highly suspicious. I have been asking a lot of people and it seems to me that those who are spending are not getting these offers. I have gotten a total of 0 random 100% primes ever. I get them when everyone has them. So i would really like to know if they are really happening randomly because i do spend on gold often. As i'm asking around no one who spends gold in my coop and those outside who spend have not recieved a 200% offer. Those who do not spend or have not spent often are recieving. So I wonder if it is random and i would like to find out for sure. Thanks.

    Must be the beginning of Farmgate! I'm pretty sure those that spend gold are getting the offer too and that there isn't a big conspiracy going on :D. Not everyone who plays this game posts on the forum.

    I've got 100% personal offer after about a month later then some players of my coop.
    And I did't get 200% offer yet on Ru1, but got 50% personal offer at WWW1 - random ))

    thanks all..I appreciate it. I was beginning to wonder. I have asked and it seems like no one is getting them who is spending. And people who are not are just not getting them. I know i'm not. And i mean never. Yes Conspiracy lmao!!! it seems. But it is good to know if people who spend are getting them please let me know its a comforting feeling that others out there are spending and getting the offers and that I and others who haven't gotten this offer are just not being left out. thanks.

    Rie, i spend gold basically to help my co op only because they will not add the lock. I logged on this morning and had a 50% offer. I have to say i broke down and bought a pack. ONLY because my co op was wanting to do Optimize processes. But no luck with the 200%. Im sure it will come a day when im short on money.

    I have bought gold (small amounts, granted) and I got the offer. Unfortunately, I decided to harvest 1st & by the time I was finished the offer was gone. I'm hoping it comes back again. Some offers have in the past.

    Hey rie, how's it going? I received the 200% offer this morning as soon as I logged in. I don't buy gold real often but I do buy probably once every 2-3 months, sometimes even longer in between. So no, no conspiracy. Just have to wait until it comes around to you. They do address the offer specifically to the person to whom its being offered. Hope it comes your way soon! :)

    From what members have told me what they got and if they have bought gold or not in the past,
    1. you get the 200% offer when you have not bought gold or last bought a few months ago (min 2 months).
    2. you get the 50% offer if it has been more than 1 month since you bought gold
    3. If you bought gold within the last month, did not get any bonus gold offer.

    Admitted, it was a small sample so no definitive info but some interesting trends.

    I have get that 200% gold offer, and 2 other players in my coop also have get it. :)

    It's a time limit offer, exactly like the prime time bonus offers. This one is just an extraordinary, so I think it would not comes so ofen as the normal prime time offers we sometimes being bombarded.

    GGS... Please send this 200% offer to my farm. I am down to 68 Gold in my account and need to replenish. Now that the whiff of a 200% offer is floating about, I will hold off until such an offer reaches my farm.

    GGS... I will have my Card ready.

    The only person that happened to in my co-op, is the only player that never buys gold. Go figure.

    Hey guys, the 50% offer before the update was a regular offer that is sent to every farm online as is normal for it. Basically, everyone got that offer.

    The 200% offer is for everyone too, however it's a Personal Prime Time offer which means that it's random in the farms it appears on - regardless of if you buy gold or not. It will eventually make it's way to each farm.

    For what it's worth, I purchase gold and I got the offer. :)
