Not only does the chat box open up, a chat bubble appears as well - even in full screen, you can see it and unless you're so zoomed in that you cannot see anything other than a modest amount of land, you should know when someone is talking.

The chat box does open sometimes if someone comes onto the farm, but if the person is working they are not paying attention to the chat box. They are there to work not chat. If you have special instructions for them say so up front. As for the chat bubble same thing they either are not paying attention or they are zoomed into the area they are working on and can't see you or your chat bubble. I don't understand why so many people get so upset because people don't chat while they are working. I'm sorry but if you hire me to work that is what I'm going to do. I will say thank you at the end but other then that I'm going to be harvesting or plowing which ever I was hired to do. If that is a problem for people then put me on ignore and you will never have to hire me again. |

Before the "harvest crops only" option was available, I could see people getting upset about workers harvesting trees when they were asked not to, as a matter of courtesy. But really ... at this point, there's not much if anything that needs to be said between hiring farmer and worker except (hopefully) a courteous thank-you. The plowing and harvesting actions themselves don't require supervision or running commentary. I'm with Jas on this one. If you want me to keep an eye on the chat window for some reason while I'm working, then say so up front. Otherwise, don't give me grief for not responding to your messages when after doing the job I pop out of full-screen to offer my thanks. A little communication about expectations goes a long way. |

For most of my time playing Farmtown (I'm Level 60 now) I've been able to hire my neighbors to work on my farm. For the past few moths though many of my neighbors have left the game, so it's harder to catch a neighbor online when I need them. Instead I've been hiring from the Marketplace.
I'm in no particular hurry so I hire two people for one of my farms with a large harvest, and one person for the other farm with a medium harvest. I include trees for whomever wants them, and plowing too if they like. I sometimes end up, though, with 3-4 people for the large crop since not everyone answers my request right away and I end up making another request unknowingly. I usually have no grumblings from anyod. But there are those who feel themselves somehow entitled, as though they are doing me a "favor" working for me. For instance today I went ahead and hired a farmer who advertised they's only harvest if they could plow, then she proceeded to tell me not to hire anyone else when two more farmers showed up to help. Then she just "stood there" and refused to answer my plow requests when I first hired another farmer to plow also. ![]() |
