Yes this happens with everything that you rotate from the normal - I get trees on top of buildings and camels that vanish under sand dunes!!

Is it rotation that causes things to sink? I thought you had to position them "just so" or something. Sometimes I can get mine stuff to stay on top and other times I can't.

Nice to know the pop ups will stop for the bonus's, although irritating they didn't annoy me so much as the bonus requests................when I logged on at 7 AM U.K. time this morning the whole of my news feed from top to bottom was just full of bonus requests, I tried to scroll past to look for facilities to work but gave up as there were just too many bonus requests to get past first plus I just couldn't see any posts from non-playing friends.

Hopefully within the next two or three days this will settle down otherwise I am sorry to say the bonus requests has spoilt the game for me.....I won't stop playing but I won't get the same pleasure from the game either.

Thank you! I don't really get what the belts are about but I don't mind them now they aren't pestering me (well,except for the brown one but I can live with that).

OK, I have spent several minutes reading thru all of the previous posts on this hideous update. I did not post earlier, and I am so pleased that the devs responded SO VERY QUICKLY to the requests THANK YOU!!
That being said, I started 2 years ago playing both Farm Town and the other farmgameville. The reason I no longer play the other was the CONSTANT requests for help, pop-ups, requested postings, etc. to MY Face Book page. I do NOT care to share with all of my non-farming friends any posts concerning a game that I play. I DO customize the request to work in facilities and service facilities to my farming neighbors.
One of the most positive aspects of Farm Town is that I can interact as much or as little as I want with neighbors or in the market place. If I choose to farm alone, I really don't notice much difference.
Since only people who PLAY Farm Town and have farms can work in my facilities or harvest/plow/etc., from the market......
WHY DO THINGS HAVE TO BE POSTED ON FACE BOOK AT ALL?? WHY CAN'T THERE JUST BE INTERACTION WITH POSTINGS ON NEIGHBORS' FARMS OR THRU THE GIFT REQUESTS POSTINGS??? I really don't think flooding Face Book with all of these requests is going to encourage a single person to START playing Farm Town. Instead, I imagine most of my friends will do as they have done for all of the Zynga games and completely block them.

Once again, the devs are giving us frequent updates and responded very quickly to this fiasco of the belts. I thank you once again for that.

Thanks s much for all the nice things!! Great job with the game!! I absolutely love it!!!

One question about the Service Facilities: When I want my friends to come to my farms to do my service facilities, do I need to post each facility separately? Or do I just post one services facility and my friends would be able to go from farms to farms to work them? I have the service facilities spread out in 3 different farms so I'm wondering if I need to post each facility on its own and my friends have to click on each one of them in order to do the work.

Just post for one, they can go farm to farm. You do have to post separately for service facilities and normal ones but just 1 of each.

Last night when they launched the belts.......within just a few minutes....I removed 172 post to my wall from neighbors posting every belt that they rec'd. I was not a happy camper. Hopefully a lot of thought is "now" being put into the "Belt" program. For many of us that are at the top level....they are SO WITHIN reach...there is nothing to challenge us. Hopefully that will change I love Farmtown ...... Happy Farming Everyone.

Are there belts for the trees we get from gifts? I'm guessing yes, we just can't see them.

I was wondering this as well. How do we know what belt we have if the tree is not available from the store?
