Useless Stuff We Can Do Without

We can now build a Crafting Silo. So you think you can craft Love Potions in your Craft Shop and a Fertilize All in your Crafting Silo? NOT! Now we need two buildings to craft one product. AND Zynga makes it more difficult...we have to now get a Cherry Basket to make a Love Potiron instead of getting Red Tulips from your neighbors.

Why can't we keep the Craft Shop as it is? You can use the crops to craft items and then introduce new items to craft in the Crafting Silo. Now we have two buildings to do the same thing! Does not make any sense. Their creative department, or whatever department thinks of these, was half asleep when they thought of this one.

Does anyone like having to have two buildings on their farm to make the same item? If you have started a Fuel Can, for example, in your Crafting Silo, you cannot start a Love Potion in your Craft Shop.  This is so ridiculous!

What do you think of the new Trading Post? I thought I could preorder Habanero Chilis to use to master the crop while I was plowing Habanero Chilis. But that would be too easy. No, we have to click on orders to help us master the crop. Too much clicking. I would just rather master them by using the crop in the Farmers Market Stall. Then I have to click on all of the orders that I get. To me, the Trading Post is an exercise in clicking.

I would rather Zynga get the bugs out of the one-click posting than produce items that make us do more useless clicking.

I am going to have to think of some really cool ideas on what Zynga could do to keep the excitement going for the game. Allowing us to stable stuff is a great idea as well as the colorful sheep and pig breeding. The duck pond is cute. Let's put our heads together and think of some great ideas.

The people at Zynga are watching this site so let's create a stir like we did when we complained about the slow release of the Craft Shop. Remember how we were getting 100 Love Potions from their Customer Service Department as a result of our complaints until they got so many complaints, they finally released it? I have alerted quite a few of their Customer Service reps of this site by sending them links to this site. Apparently my viewership in the cities where Zynga has offices has grown EXPONENTIALLY!!! According to my Google Analytics, ZYNGA IS WATCHING WHAT WE SAY HERE! So now is the time to get what you want and to be really creative and submit your ideas as a post to this site. You can post anonymously, so you don't have to create a Google account to post. Of course, I moderate the comments before posting them. I cannot accept "add me" requests in my posts. I have to keep my links safe from viruses and malware for my readers.

  1. Yes and even with two silos on each farm, our silos fill up too quickly, and the endless feed now every 2 seconds is really annoying and they only give you a 25 posting feed limit on the fullscreen posting before it returns to the posting outside of full screen, so you have to keep coming out of fullscreen every 2 seconds. We should be selling our wool bushels on market stalls-it would be far easier.

  2. I am not at all interesting in crafting yet I keep getting silos! I would appreciate the ability to opt-out of crafting! Creating new game features is appreciated but we still should be able to refuse the ones we are not interested in using instead of having them repeatedly shoved in our faces!
    Also, why earn money when Farmville does not give you enough stuff to buy with it?
    I can not even expand my farm any more because I do not have enough friends. I have millions of dollars but what good dose that do me?

  3. Keep adding friends. Get two good Farmville friends to suggest Farmville friends for you. That has helped me get 50 at a time.

    I agree, Zynga is a bit greedy with the FV Dollars. We should be able to pay coins for the same item. Maybe make it a lot of coins but we should be able to "save" for it.

  4. I am tired of the unnecessary pop-ups with this silo myself. I think we should just see the items in my stall.

    It would be nice if we wanted to post, to be able to do so and NOT leave the full screen. That is a big complaint of mine. Most of the time, I close all the popups and just post a few. For example, I post the grown trees but not the seedlings or water cans.

    I think the automatic posting is good. I would rather be able to turn it on and off in the game, like we can with sound, for instance.

  5. Thanks for the helpful tip Kim but I am not interested in having a bunch of people that I realy do not know as Facebook/Farmville friends.
    When I play I play for my own enjoyment and not as any type of social outlet.
    I simply like to design and redesign my farm and earn the ocassional level and mastery sign. I would much rather be able to pay to expand my farm with the money I earn while playing and not have to buy FV money or add a bunch of people I do not know to my friend's list.
    That is not fun for me.
    Since the game seems to be based around the "social" aspect it is beginning to be less fun for me because the less social I am the more I am limited in my game play.
    I hope that Zynga does start considering the player who prefers to play with less friends or even alone. If not, then there are many more online games that are set up for both solo and social play....and I will be moving on.
    Thanks again for yur tip tough. It was nice of you to want to help!

  6. Oh, ok, lol. I must have misunderstood what you said about not being able to expand. You made some good points. Have you ever tried Big Fish Games (http://www.bigfishgames.com/)? They have great games, which are NOT in beta. According to BigFish, they do not have spyware, viruses, malware, etc. The games are inexpensive. I love the Hidden Object games. Now I am too busy to play, which is good, in a way. ;)
