Hi Skyseeker,

I have moved your post to the thread about Hiring issues. There are no problems that were are aware of. I have just hired someone who doesn't have the bigger tools and they were able to use mine fine.

Possible causes could be:
  • they have not allowed use of their tools in the hiring window
  • their bigger tools are not in their storage and are out on a farm

Today I was hired to work a couple of flower farms. Wall to wall flowers but not layered or stacked.

Three times while I was working I got thrown out to the my requests screen. I have no idea why this happened, I definitely did not click on the requests tab but only on the flowers, and no right-click popups appeared. Fortunately the rehire system worked every time.

My question is this: had I used memcache after I got kicked out, would that have compromised the rehire? would it have still worked? would the game still have retained my bonus?

Hi Sqrl,
You are asking questions we do not have answers for. My thought is the rehire request would not have worked if you had done cleared the memcache when that happened. At that point I would not do the memcache clearing until after I finished the job.

Thanks, Taz. That was my feeling too, which is why I didn't do it.

The really annoying thing is other people taking the jobs that you've been hired for. Just got hired for flowers and chopping, I hadn't got through 1 farm and someone else comes in and takes it all. No wonder people ask for solo work most of the time. It's about time we have a fire button in place. Or at least have a pop up saying to the employer this farm is already been or being worked on choose another/other farms. Or allow 2 or more people on the same farm but they have separate jobs, like the pop showing the jobs can disappear if they've been worked/working on for that farm.

Default Hiring rejections then acceptance

I have noticed for a while now that when I send a job offer to someone in the marketplace .. they will examine (I think that is what they are doing) the job and then their status will turn yellow and sometimes I get a rejection notice... so I move on to another worker to hire and they accept and leave to go to the farms to work, then all of a sudden the person who rejected my offer takes the job and starts working those farms. I do not like to hire two people.. I only hire solo and most workers only want to be solo so it is not right when this bug happens.

What is causing it? I asked in the job market if anyone else was having that issue and only one other person answered. Is there a way to make sure a rejected offer stays rejected?

Hi lillymc,
You did not get a rejection message if they were able to accept the job later. The name may have turned yellow but they did not reject it most likely because they did not see it. It is supposed to go away after they have been yellow for 30 seconds, but sometimes it doesn't get updated which still shows the hire request to them and allows them to accept the job. It is not supposed to stay that long, but is not always able to update what they see.
