Wow... thought people were posting notes and having a conversation.... Assume the posts that were deleted crossed the line... Kind of like the chatter back and forth in the forum around wishes (like more of certain products)... and the new release (I am already ready for next one in September sigh).... Still trying to recover from losing everything in my crop storage by the gremlins of Farmtown....

I'm no longer playing this game, my 25FC still has not been refunded to me yet. Lost all interests already even in the Quests. Nothing about this game can really excite me now. Too bad!!!!

Sandie Angel :(

Let Me Rephrase That,, Please!

Perhaps it would have been better had I said something like, "I'm sure it never occurred to the developers that introducing a single product that simultaneously more than doubled demand for kaolin clay and required nearly three weeks' output from a single mine would prove a serious challenge for us as players."

Also, Taz, may I direct your attention to just two paragraphs from my post that I think illustrate my true intention, which was to carefully and POLITELY present the case for evaluating the production of kaolin clay:

OK, so rather than just fume and complain,I did the math.
and
Dear Creative, Ingenious Fabulous Developers, I did the math for you. I hope you can see that introduction of the Restroom Supplies Facility, created a serious imbalance in KC supply and demand, one we would all like to see addressed sooner rather than later, please.

As Farm Town grows and becomes both more fun and more complex, it seems inevitable that demand for some basic products may outstrip the ability of even the most ingenious player to meet. As has been well said elsewhere, we all play out own game, and balancing the availability of products is really our own responsibility.

However, sometimes the cumulative effect of new releases is to create a supply/demand situation that needs rethinking. Case in point: More and bigger farms accompanied by more and bigger tools eventually created a demand for fuel that simply couldn't be met. The players presented their case here in the Forum and eventually the developers increased the output from each Oil Pump (and the Refinery as well, I think)

I came to the Forum to present my case and request that the developers consider looking into the issue. I could wish you had at least acknowledged that before chastising me for an unintentional faux pas.

Hi Deanna,
I do not fault your intent and I wholeheartedly agree with you that the production needs to be increased for the kaolin clay. I apologize for not so stating that in my post. My correction of your statement in no way takes away from your stated case. I mearly wanted to make sure that a mis-statement did not continue.
You have presented the case admirably and I am with you in asking for an increase. Let's hope that Raul and team do consider this.

Hi TartanLady,
If it was release related I am sure we would have many more posting about it. The only way I can see that it would be release related would be because of the number of people on at the same time which is not unusual when a release happens.
Please try all the suggestions in the first posts of the following threads. If you are still having trouble please post in those threads.
