Neighbour/Buddy Requests!

Farm Town no longer requires you to be Facebook friends before you can send a Neighbour or Buddy Request!

Please read this entire post before posting!
You can post a Neighbour or Buddy Request here!

For Instructions on how to get your Farm Link: CLICK HERE

You can make a request for Neighbours/Buddies without being Facebook Friends.

OR you can still request to be Facebook Friends first before sending in game Neighbour/Buddy Requests.

If you wish to be Facebook friends first you will need:

A link to your Facebook profile

To get this go to your Facebook profile page, look in the browser address bar that the top left of your browser window, you will see one of these. You may have the top version that would show your own Facebook username or you may have the one below which shows your FB user number. Make a note of the version you see to use it in your post here.
Your Facebook Setting for How people can find and contact you must be set to Public for you to be able to be sent a Facebook Friend request.
If you are also asking to be sent a Facebook message when a Facebook friend request is sent, make sure that in your How you get message requests you have checked that NONE of the options are set to "Don't Receive Requests" or you will not be able to receive messages from that that are not FB friends yet.

If you do not wish to be Facebook friends, you do not need to provide your Facebook profile link.

When posting in this thread please refrain from:
posting more than one request in this thread. You can edit your existing post to change information or delete the post and post a new request.
posting requests for your friends. They need to do this themselves!
reply to any posts you see here. Instead, please send them a Private Message on the forum OR visit their farms and leave an in game message.

NEVER include your Login details (email/password) for the Website or your Facebook account in your post.

ALWAYS supply your farm link in your post here! This will allow farmers to visit your farms, send you a Neighbour/Buddy Request or an in game Message which you can then use to visit a farmer to send your own Neighbour/Buddy Request.

Also listing some information can help both you and those wanting to add you to know when you are likely to play for things like trading, sending you train boosts, where to place you in ships logbooks etc:

when you are likely to play Farm Town (all day, before/after work, mornings/afternoons/evenings).
what country you are located due to time zones,(US/UK/Australia)
if your port is open or closed and if you check often for ships at your port
features you do or do not participate in, NCC, Co-operative Quests/Farm Pass/Facility Chains/Trading etc.
If you prefer to be Facebook friends before becoming a Neighbour/Buddy.

Examples of what you could include in your post along with your farm link:

**********************************

How to use a farm link and Send A Neighbour/Buddy Request!
Make sure that you are logged into the website before you click on any farm links!

Each forum member will have posted a farm link in their post.

When the link starts with https://apps.slashkey.com at the front of the link. That is a farm link.
To use that link you will need to be logged into the Website in order to be able to go to their farms. If you are not logged into the website then you will see the login page instead of their farms.

Click on the farm link in a post and you will load their farm.
When you arrive you can do two things:
1. click on the notepad to send a message to let the farmer know you are sending a request.
2. click on the Visitor Toolbox bottom left of the game screen so it opens, to be able to send a Neighbour or Buddy Request.
  
  Both of these not dimmed means you do not have them as a Neighbour or Buddy.
  Click in the blue one to Send a Neighbour Request.
  Click on the green one to send a Buddy Request.
  
  Means they are one of your Neighbours, and not on your Buddy List.
  
  Means they are on your Buddy List and are not one of your Neighbours.

**********************************

How to use ONLY a Farm ID number to Send A Neighbour/Buddy Request!
You will need to be logged into the website before you do this.

When there is only a Farm ID number in the post, you will need to copy that number correctly to use

To Send A Neighbour Request:

Click on the Farmers Lists icon up by the message envelope at the top of your game screen.

Click on My Neighbours section to send the farmer a Neighbour Request.

To send a Neighbour Request click on this icon:

A small window will open titled Enter Email or User ID number.

Enter the farmers ID number using your computer keyboard, then click on Send Neighbour Request.

OR to send a Buddy Request:

Click on the Farmers Lists icon up by the message envelope at the top of your game screen.

Click on My Buddies section to send the farmer a Buddy Request.

To send a Neighbour Request click on this icon:

A small window will open titled Enter Email or User ID number.

Enter the farmers ID number using your computer keyboard, then click on Send Buddy Request.

**********************************

Things to consider when adding new farmers as a Neighbour OR a Buddy:

Neighbours can only help you with some features in game where Buddies can not like ships logbooks.
Neighbours and Buddies can NOT earn the bonus chest.
You may not be Facebook friends.
Farm Town is no longer on Facebook. When you make changes to your Facebook friends, your Facebook name or profile pictures, that data will no longer automatically update those changes on the Website.

You can if you wish, manually update your first name and website profile picture to match what you are using on Facebook via the Account tab, profile section.

There will be some farmers that have created a new account or don't have a Facebook account to be able to update a Facebook profile picture to use on the Website.

Please do remember:

to check for messages in game or on the forum. Not doing so, can cause frustration for both farmers when trying to help someone with neighbour/buddy connections that doesn't check for those messages.
when you no longer need more Neighbours or Buddies to use the button, and then click on "Delete" to remove your post.

These help prevent many duplicate posts, similar posts by the same farmer and old posts from showing up so it's easier to see all the different farmers for the type of player you are looking for.

Requests are deleted when they are 2 months old.
Any post that does not comply with any of the above information will be edited or deleted at the discretion of the forum moderators.

If your post has been deleted due to age or fulfillment, you may, of course, repost a new neighbour request.

Happy farming to everyone!!

Looking to add a few more very active neighbors only, who post facilities and also work postings, ports, trains, quests, Coops, and NCC as I do every day. Not accepting buddies.

Hi everyone !

I'm a long time player but sadly a lot of my neighbours have stopped playing, so I need some new ones.

I would like help with sending ships and trains on, I'm afraid I don't have time for quests but I occasionally help with facs. Please bear in mind that I'm in the UK so I won't be doing stuff at the same time as you are.

Thanks for any help !

Hey y'all...

I have been playing Farm Town, off and on, since 2009. Oh my, how the games has changed since the early days of 1 farm and watering flowers with the watering can. Most everyone I knew has left the game and I find I need new neighbors. I am in South Central Texas which is the Central Time Zone, but tend to play at all hours of the day and night.

Hope to see you soon!
