Well!
I have been playing the game for about six months and feel that it is great.
One thing I have noticed is that everytime you guys improve things for people others get unreasonably( I feel and I am sorry) upset. As the saying goes you can't please everyone all the time.
People should just accept that it is a game, go with the flow and accept the challenges each change brings.
Personally I quite like the new way - as you say it has removed the stamped for crops.
Have a great holiday
PS. I would like to be able to buy a holiday pig though!!!
