I noticed just today how many people in the MP don't answer you when you type something in. All of this is rather foreign to me since I usually always say hi.
I was actually looking to hire someone to harvest and plow and people couldn't even say good morning to me. It's making me want to hire friends only and be done with the entire marketplace.
I did finally hire someone who got halfway done with my farm and vanished. I suspect the server timed out on her as her avatar stayed at my farm but it froze there. I went back to hire someone to finish the trees and plow and somehow hired 2.... and the minute they got to my farm they were asking plow? plow? which I thought was rude. I had to tell them 2 times to please finish the trees. And they still left a grove undone that I finally just did myself in frustration. Then they both plowed and didn't even say thank you.
I go to the marketplace to be hired at times, and only hope that my being courteous is giving me a good reputation that will make people want to hire me again.
I'm wondering what the right answer is as far as hiring people - I want to hire someone who pays attention to what I'm asking for and says thanks.
On the tree debate, I didn't realize it was bad manners to harvest them automatically or to ask before harvesting. I want to be sure that people who hire me get what they need done, which is why I will usually ask.
