Note from Freyashawk:

After my post about the last Farm Beauty Contest and failure to rank in top 10, I have received an incredible outpowering of Support from players who use this site.  Whatever happens, I want you to know how very grateful I am that you took the time to contact me and for any Votes that you feel able to send to HM. Freyashawk.  I know I have not been at my best lately.  Although the radiotherapy treatments were completed on Friday, I acquired an infection of some kind and it has prevented me from doing a lot of my regular farm tasks, let alone other tasks.

Note about Inactive Neighbours
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The most recent updates have been LARGE and old devices often are unable to support them.  If you play on an older device that does not allow the addition of an external memory card, you may find yourself unable to load your farm at all.  I think this is very unfair, but it is the way the game is being designed now.   Do not be too quick to remove old, faithful neighbours.  They may be trying to find another device or solution for this problem, which is endemic.

The Animal Hospital is cute, but do we really NEED it?  The Order Champion is another unnecessary update that drains our resources and takes space on the servers.  The Community option is HUGE.  At some point, they will expand the Sea Resort again.  I anticipate that will make the game unplayable for at least one tenth of our existing players, many of whom are those who have played longest and worked hardest through the years.  I would beg FunPlus to rethink their goals.  This is a beautiful, charming game that offers many positive activities, but at this point in time, it is on OVERLOAD, not only where our devices are concerned, but our own time, energy and resources.  There are too many new premium items constantly being thrown our way.  There are too many upgrades that require RC.  I always have believed that a player who truly enjoys a game should be willing to invest a little in it.  The Millionaire Cow is an example of a small but worthwhile investment.  When, however, the game loads the initial splashscreens with four or five DIFFERENT groups of premium items, it is too much.

Well, I did not intend a diatribe here, but please be patient if you see regular players have become inactive... give them a chance to find another device before you delete them!
