So I am as prepared as I can be... now just waiting and anticipating the new updates. Just a little funny that I am this way about this silly game... but I am and it is what it is! Thanks for making the game a lot of fun and entertaining.

No def NOT alone!!!!

FB just gets your money without you authorizing it. Never had these problems with FARMTOWN. Not sure what facebook is doing but I am going to keep a close eye on this.
I am not a happy camper.

I didn't have any charges made but a concern that there maybe. So I wrote FB and was given the answer that if I do not want to delete and re-add my PayPal account every time I make a purchase then I could buy Facebook gift cards.

This is not acceptable.

Does this system allow you to pay with a credit card through PayPal? They keep the default at deducting the money from your bank account, and you have to actually go to your PayPal account to change it to paying by credit card. If not, I'm not going to use it; we don't keep much money in the bank account that PayPal is linked to.

Good thing a couple of local stores have FB Credits gift cards. I seriously don't trust the combination of FB and PP with my bank accounts.

I just called Paypal and they walked me through canceling the fact that you do not have to sign in to paypal each time i buy something frm fb/ft I now have to sign in each time. thought you all might like to know this

If you could be so kind as to share this information with everyone on here I think they would be most grateful

I believe you can change your primary payment method in Paypal to a credit card with the bank account as a secondary. As long as it is a confirmed payment method then should go through ok. You might want to put that question to Paypal though. If you can then that would protect your credit card info from FB.

I see a few games shutting down and discontinuing on facebook. Im assuming this is due to facebook's changes? The mobsters game shut down today over there. The Playdom company's not re-imbursing any real life money spent on the game as none of the others that have shut down will.
You spend real money on a game and the game goes poof - you are SOL and out of luck. you wont get money back, and you wont have a single thing to show for it when it happens..

I know many ppl have spent a ton of money buying a lot of premium game item for various games and lost everything when the game went offline for good, so just be forwarned.

Not sure what you mean but just a suggestion, right click on your farm and click on "show all". This may make your visibility better. Good luck!

You can't hide who has sent you gifts etc. I personally like this notification area, as it reminds me to help those that have helped me.
