Please provide some feedback about this other alternative on this thread, or if you rather prefer the way it was before, unlimited hiring, faster work but more potential for collisions and lost coins/XP.

thanks

I usually hire no more than two people at a time. Limiting to one would not be the best solution for me.

I think many people would agree that the social aspect is one of the finer points of the game. When I want neighbors to meet each other, I can invite them both to harvest and then plow to have some time to get acquainted. Have done this more than once. If you want to limit numbers, PLEASE do not make it One.

Personally, I would rather just have it the way it was before. There are other ways to deal with the rude players. Self management and time management are the best tools. I don't take requests to plow when there is more than one other. I've been accused of being "selfish", but it IS my time after all. I've also been hired to plow solo because I was the only one not begging to plow!

Most of the players are adults, if I'm not mistaken. Please treat us that way. Decent people will find other decent people to play with. We will have a bad experience now and then, but that's minor compared to the many other wonderful people who play.

Expect the best from us. I am sorry some people feel the rude players are such an issue as to make the developers go to such drastic measures. If they themselves are decent players, they should just move on along and find those like themselves. We have plenty of work to share with them!
