True, but to be fair, if the mods don't have the information, they ought not to speculate on it, since there WILL be people that take their understanding/interpretation of the news as authority. And it's not unreasonable that people would do that, so I think that there's some responsibility on the mods in terms of how they disseminate information. It's fine to say "I don't know officially, but here's what I think with my player hat on" or something like that.
Same goes for CMs who don't make the dev decisions or direct where the game is going, but have to relay that information to us. If it wasn't known that the happiness change was going to be something like 15%, then don't make claims that it's going to be "barely noticeable" or anything like that. And don't feed us some made up story about how my pixel minions are angry because they think my farm is ugly or something. It's fine to say "sorry we messed up, now we are going to have to fix this problem". Being upfront accountable for your mistakes (or the mistakes of the company you represent) is an important, mature step in professionalism.
Just be honest, that's all I really want.
lmao!!!!!!!
Jay, my dear friend,
First.... a small notice here: Be careful with that Image that I love. Got forum banned because of it. Warning.
Last but not least, I totally agree with what you posted. But I take it to a lesser degree for Mods as they only follow what CMs do... They are not made aware in advance of changes that will happen most of the time. But CMs, that is a different story:
1: like you said, do not give us a childish story about our virtual workers not being happy because of lack of decos to cover from GGS' mistake. Sorry, I'm not 5 years old and I don't buy it.
2: Do not steal from my investment that I made with real money because again, you SCREWED up.
Trust me, it will be a long time before they see another penny from me if they do not change and correct this unfair update that targets everyone and not the ones that they wanted to "correct" or "guide in the right direction".
I know another Big company that made that same mistake, e.g. trying to tell how players should play their game: company name removed They are going down the tubes.

I do indeed run a production farm. Farm1 is at +470, farm2 at +472 and farm3 dropped from -100 to -83.
The extra lvls ggs added now makes the difference between a litlle profit or losing money.
George:rolleyes:
There's the fix, so simple! If you don't like your running costs demolish some production facilities and add a deco or two. The incessant whining and threatening to quit wont achieve a thing because people that have played this game long enough will know that GGS will not change this update. The mass walkout that was apparently going to happen over this update hasn't happened on my server and probably wont since a lot of us are simply addicted to this game.
Know what? Events were once my favorite part of this game. Especially now that I can pick which level and actually collect all of a given prize. I use to play REAL HARD for several days straight to at least come close to the prize. Then on the last hour of the last day might pitch in a little gold if need be.
Well now? I flat out don't care anymore. Two of my farms I tried for the hardest one. Just don't care.
What's the point? No matter how many of what kind of decor I have now it's impossible to ever have 100% happiness. So what's the point?
I spent less time on this event than I have since I first signed up on this game. I mainly check in with my coops. The actual game has turned into a gold mining pop up filled pile of crap. And I should spend cash for this?
I love this... "Free decor with purchase of...." NOT FREE? WITH PURCHASE IS NOT AT ALL FREE!
The pop up is annoying enough but the OUT RIGHT BLATANT LIE ON IT is really bad.
Agh.
not one more dime is going on this game. Not one.
1 if you dont like what you read stop reading it. If you cannot be polite enough to not call names, maybe not say anything.
2 you are, as anyone else entitled to you opinion.
3 you really think that is challenging..?

No need to add any comment i think.
Does anyone else agree that this is a very nice way of saying that the new gourmet farm's profits will pale in comparison to what we have now?
What's the point?
Really, what is the point of this game now? I understand all the mathematics behind it, why they changed it, how they failed, how we ended up screwed by them... but that simple question eluded me until I read it in your post:
WHAT'S THE POINT?
Thx mate!

I'm switching from a -90% target to a 30-50% target range. Will add 2 more fields, one orchard and once I expand, 2 more cowsheds.

Ticket#2014031810098429
ticket numbers to delete All my farms. Funny that instead of asking my password to confirm, I get the one that says "we miss you, come back" hahaha
you are calling the people that feel differently than you whiners.. thats namecalling in my book, and also disrespectful.
I allready told you the strategy, and you agreed to it.
If you read all my posts, you would know i did the exact opposite of blaming the mods, please get your facts straight.
And on a personal note.. please stop telling me how to play my game? I have had enough of that from GGS today:)
I want my money back if you don't change it to the way it was. Your "improvements" are based solely on profits.
if you want to fix the problem just limit the amount production pieces that can be placed.
Holy crap, that is actually a simple, non-stupid idea that makes way more sense than what we have now.
Or is it just that ... a "threat" to quit and oh perhaps I should use it on the farm in case I do come back.
Just a question I was pondering.
So many were upset at the onset & mocked by what I will term farming nieve optomists. It was pointed out from the onset - this was NEVER about high production farms... people by & large havent begun to invest the GOLD in those farms that they have to maintain high joy levels throughout their farms. We are left with only a few narrow choices -
1 - Toss ALL those gold decos except tractors & use GOLD to purchase a Lot more for all 3 farms
2 - Go High Productive & NEVER buy gold again (my favorite!)
3 - Quit the game altogether
A quick thought Gizmo - which GGS thought out in depth long before making this change when deciding how to boost their revenue... Players CAN & will demolish production buildings to increase joy - easy enough BUT... Coops will NO Longer be able to complete even lower level basic projects (more the less the more difficult higher level projects - Oooops! PLUS - once we demolish the producyion buildings... guess what - we can't complete the Quests to earn the FREE decos - back to getting out the pocketbook.
I haven't decided whether I will convert to High Production or quit altogether but...
GGS will NEVER get another penny from me - EVER!!!
Geez, I cant find any of those posts too ( all from tday btw) errr cause they were being removed??? and it was not this thread, it was happiness achieved thread started by Latten. My posts were removed from there.
i joined a coop today.. so that i could donate my gold before quitting:) I am still here for the forums, not the game.
It is interesting to read what ppl feel and do about this screwup, which is why i didnt just.. leave:)
thats my reasons anyway, dont know about others:)
Hi5 for you Ladygrail :-). That's what I would do also IF I were quitting. I am in a great coop and would demolish/sell everything and donate all cash and gold.
However, I am NOT quitting anyway. I'm none too happy about loosing and few percentages in happiness but I'll work with it.
What's happened to the mass exodus, I'm still ranked 21st & just checked you're still ranked 25th, I though we'd both be in the top 20 by now, I got another 200% gold offer this morning, bugger it's off pension week, I hope I get another 1 next week, we haven't lost anyone or are we likely to, just have wait & see what happens when they rework the food farm.
My mass production is still making a profit, it's also a big help for Co-Op projects, so I'll leave it be for now.

Hey George.
I know - not much movement in the ranks today. Maybe it takes time to delete an account. I too am still making okay money so all good. Few unhappy coop members, but nothing too drastic. We can all work with it. We're adaptable!
GGS, where's my 200% offer ... still waiting and being teased with the tiddlers. Or did you give it to George instead. One of my coop members has had it 3 times!!! Feeling a bit left out I am and I really do want to buy some.
