Tonight I just asked for someone to h/p 3xLayered farms and trees for me and "comforted" the person by saying I have all the largest tools available and this girl put her hand up for the job and I don't know if she ran out of fuel or what... but after getting a nice little chunk of the chopable trees done she's going one by one... to make things worse she's gone OFFLINE to do the work so she's invisible to me... I can't even offer to rehire her and let her use my fuel [I don't choose it automatically because if people have fuel they can use theirs first before mine!] Not only that but if you're "offline" and run out of fuel why not ask the person if they can rehire you with fuel or perhaps get in help... argh! So now I have to wonder at 12.33am if she will actually go and FINISH all 4 farms [one is a tree farm and the other 3 are 3xLayered crop farms] even though it would almost drive her crazy or risk getting someone in to railroad her. Which I know sucks! However I know well enough to know that people that are faced with my farms with their 1x1 tools cause they've run out NEVER finish! I also know that if it was me I'd most likely be like yeah right I'm out... but at least *I* always send the person a message saying I'm sorry this job is too much or it's extremely late etc can you get me help or get someone to finish up.
I mostly needed to vent in this case lol!... if you go offline and you run into trouble PLEASEEEE send the farm owner a message we CANNOT contact you  (unless for some strange reason you actually sent an inbox earlier) |
I've had that happen. I ask if anyone wants to chop a lot of trees. I make it clear that it's a big job, 20x20 farm with lots of trees. not layered just alot of trees. People come forward and I choose someone and they chop three or four trees then leave me a message saying sorry too much. I feel like saying why did you accept the job then? Don't tell me you didn't know what you were getting into. I made it clear that it was a big job with a lot of trees. I think more people would be willing to chop/harvest trees, flowers and fish if we got XP's for it. As it is now there is no real incentive to do it.
I just had someone hire me to do 3 farms. I wasn't halfway through the first farm and he tried to hire me to do the rest of his farms. At least let me finish before you hire me to do more or better yet when you hire someone hire them for all of the farms at once.
