Followers Question

Does anybody know for sure if SuperCell is going to be adding some type of feature to remove followers? or be able to approve followers?

I'm tired of having a follower that no longer plays. I would think that Supercell would want to remove these because it does take up server resources to load a the shortcut link to someones farm, and to load someone's farm you don't know doesn't play anymore to check their store.

I am also tired of deadbeat followers, where all they do is take take take and they themselves have nothing for sale, not ever!

Im kind of new to Hay Day, so I apologize if I say something stupid here, but, um...what does it cost you to have dead friends or people that buy your stuff? They aren't going to delete idle accounts ever.

Visiting dead accounts? Um... can you say time wasting! Especially when load times are slow from servers!

Additionally, I hate selling to someone that doesn't give back. Especially someone that comes through my store and buys over 30 crates of stuff, sometimes twice a day! I'd rather sell to someone that is going to return the favor of having stuff available for purchase if needed!

So yes, it does matter!!!!

There is a difference in terminology amongst the community.

Some view "trading" as the exchange of products e.g. my brown sugar for your white sugar. Others (I include SC) view trading as the exchange of possessions e.g. my brown sugar for your 32 coins.

Both are correct IMO.

No one can take take take in this game without give give giving coins, which constitutes a trade.

Regarding inactive followers, at some point I hope you'd recognize them by name and simply skip over them opposed to selecting them. I have plenty of them and skip them accordingly.

Well said as always Holidae. :).

Welcome to Hay Day and to the forum Spyder. Good to have you. The follower debate has been going on for a while, and there are many good points both for and against. No one's opinion is any more or less important than anyone else's, so please never feel stupid for voicing yours. The greatest thing about the Hay Day side of the forum is our ability to discuss things respectfully. :). Glad you joined us.

Farm on! :D

I undetstand the points for and against this topic and as I myself only have three followers its not an issue with be but what I don't understand is why it is such a big deal to be able to kick a follower if someone wanted to. If I wanted to I can unfriend via facebook and game center and the follower concept in a whole seems a bit like stalking to me :). Although I think I might enjoy a few more stalkers I do agree with being able to mace one if need be to get rid of that stalker. Lol. Really just trying to be kinda funny about the touchy subject :p

Iam, exactly! You can remove a GC "friend". Why not the ability to remove a follower!?!?

Thank you all for your opinions. But the folks at Supercell still haven't answered my question. Is this something possibly in the works?


Also, I can sell to anyone and "trade" for coins.... but I'd rather be able to "trade" (give) someone coins and be able to purchase needed items from their store too. I guess this is a topic closely related to politics and religion....everybody has an opinion and theirs is the correct one.

How do you stop playing this game though? If i suddenly stopped playing Hay Day (unlikely in the near future!) i would just delete it from my IPad which I suspect wouldn't delete it from Hay day itself, so my friends would have my stagnant farm going.

But as I play other games that helps having friends I wouldn't want to be unfriended on GC or Facebook.

Can you delete it from GC?

I am not a GC multigame player. The only reason I added GC friends was for the purpose of having farms to visit; in hopes of items available for purchase and to exchange "!" requests and assistance.

I can see how playing multigame GC it would make deleting them in GC difficult.

I don't have a problem with selling anything but i do understand how frustrating it is to have one or a few followers over use the purchase button especially when you have new folks to the game that you would like to have a fair shot.

I do wish they would change the friends tab for the followers tab as it'd be much better and fairer to choose rather than be forced, just that when someone is camped outside your shop and jumps on anything that isn''t crops it does get frustrating, having said all that for the most part i keep in mind that like any community i couldn't have gotten past level 1 without people selling their goods

Happy Farming : )
