if your meaning like pasting text after you copied it then the buttons are ctrl and V at the same time

I never ask if I can harvest something if I'm hired to harvest it I harvest it. Now if someone nicely says ops I hit the wrong thing I will stop but otherwise I get to harvesting. We have had the option of protecting trees for close to a year now so no reason to make sure people click on the right thing.

It would be nice if people own up to their mistakes. Of course that is like people to have common sense. It is entirely her fault. She clicked the wrong button. I wish I was in the TC position that would have been fun for me.

i just got used to doing it from the days before items were protected. so it doesnt bother me to take a few seconds to double check if they want it done or not. especially when im working with other they finish the crops and beg to plow i continue to ask if they would like trees/flowers/or fishing done as well most time it leads to me getting the plowing solo for being kind enough to ask about other things insted of asking to plow first

Isn't there a report for abuse tab on a person's avatar? I'm thinking there is, but not 100%

When I go to anyone's farm I first have made sure that trees or flowers are turned off. Then I ask if they want trees or flowers done. That way I never touch them unless they have asked me to do them.

I think I would have taken her name and the name of her farm and made a complaint against her - there is absolutely no reason for that kind of language anywhere or anytime!!
I really sorry that you had to be verbally assaulted like that. I too would not be able to hack into anyone's computer and even if I could, I'm sure it would take longer than the time it took to harvest her crops. She sounds like she did not take her be calm pills that morning.

Wow, this was completely out of line for the hiring farmer. It is not so very hard to make sure that we hire people for the job we want done and if she messed up then it was on her! I am disgusted to hear that something like this happened. So many players make this game a wonderful retreat from reality and create such a sense of community that it is depressing to see people act like this. I guess, that just like real communities, each one has to have a set of people that make things less desirable for the others that have to share the same space. If you can I would attempt to track this farmer back down and report her for abuse. NO ONE should have to be subjected to this type of treatment.

OMG...That's horrible! The flowers grow back in a few days and the fruit on the trees does, too. What's the big deal...sheesh! Some people need to get a life!

Anyway, I always work on Full Screen mode and chat is disabled then which kinda sucks because I have to switch back and forth if my "employer" has a question or comment I need to reply to...assuming I even see it...
