Similarly, I have plenty of friends on Facebook, and only a few who are on Farm Town, but I am not going to badger the ones that aren't to start playing the game, just so I can up my neighbour count. Call be cynical, but putting such a large neighbour requirement on this seem a calculated move by the developers to "force" us to get get more players for them!

Using Farm Dollars isn't an option for me, as I'm already on Level 80, and I'm not going to mess around with the "application of the day" for similar reasons for not adding "strangers" to my Facebook. I'm not adverse to using real money to purchase some Farm Dollars, but again it just looks like a cynical attempt to on the part of the developers that this is the only other way to purchase a third farm.

I understand that and it is your choice, but my post on the subject was to let people that maybe didn't know they could hide everything but their name from FB friends that they could and how they could do it. Now as for not asking your friends to play the game that is your choice but they don't have to play the game just add the game then accept your neighbor request I have done this for a lot of my friends. Really all you need to do is send them a neighbor request and when they accept the request it will ask them to add the app and it will add them as your neighbor at the same time. There is no harm in asking one time for a friend to click the mouse a few times to help you out.

pop up messge system

you need to have a minimum amount of 30 neighbours to excess your 3rd farm and keep it.

I do not want to be on the forum if that happened you think people are mad now let the developers do that it will be hell around here.

I don't see anything wrong with people adding others as neighbors long enough to get to 30 and get farm 3 then removing them, as long as they are upfront about what they are doing. That way people that are looking for permanent neighbors know that person will not be one.
