Discussions about Farm Cash

There were LOTS of questions, I needed to evaluate movies that I had seen, compare them to others, also discussed Blu Ray vs DVD movies and which I preferred. After about 30 minutes, having answered dozens of questions, I was told that "I did NOT qualify" for this survey. I didn't post anything here on the forum, because I had noticed that those who did got the story that Slashkey had nothing to do with these surveys, and that I needed to complain to Facebook and Trialpay, which I did. It has been approximately 3 weeks and I have been put on IGNORE by Trialpay. Frankly, if Slashkey wishes to maintain a good reputation, they should distance themselves from this scam. The responses from the moderators regarding this issue does reflect this attempt.

The OTHER issue is one of cash. Since the last update, those who are on fixed incomes are attempting to find ways to earn additional FC. As another player on this forum has explained, this is a VERY expensive game and if one were to buy most, not all, facilities, tools, and trains the dollar amount would be approximately $1000.

I don't know what the hold up is about granting FC as a reward in the Quests, but I can tell you that if the developers did that, there would be a great surge of attention given to the Quests. Currently, if a player has earned more than 475 levels, the only chance of additional FC is 25 FC once every 3 months or so, which is inadequate to purchase anything with, unless that player has an unlimited amount of real cash available for this game.

In my opinion saying that the mayor might occasionally award FC for quests is asking for trouble. When it starts some players are going to get FC for their quest and their neighbors will not get any and they are going to flock to the forum and complain that they have not received any FC for quests and it is unfair that their neighbors got some and they didn't. They only way I could see that they could do it without all of the complaints is to make it that you get 1 FC for every ? quests. Me I would say the number to replace the "?" would be something like 5 or 6, you mentioned that unless a player has unlimited amount of real cash, I am on limited disability and don't have unlimited cash, but I purchase FC when I can, so unlimited cash is not needed, I pay my bills and if or when I have a little left over I spend on this game, it is the only game now that I will use cash on. For the ones that can't or don't want to purchase any, if they get gifts like birthday or Christmas gifts, tell everyone that you would like Facebook gift cards, if I got gifts for Christmas and birthdays anymore that is what I would do.

It seems like it would be hard for Farm Town and Slashkey to distance themselves from the offers and TrialPay since they don't control what is put in the offers.
