Weird Moments

Do you ever feel so weird that sometimes you get attached to other farms? You don't know them and they don't know you, but you help each other alot and stuffs..


Today I'm very happy I'm finally being in-game-friend with one of my old following. I left the game mid spring 2016 and when came back, I realized that most people in my following list are also left the game. Because now I can add them as friends, I added all eight of them as my in game friends and then unfollowed them because I need spaces in my following list. I also added some of my followers who love helping me and those who always sell rare stuffs.

Today when I woke up I looked at my friend list, I knew one of them finally accepted my request. I quickly visited her level 107 farm, she was building the flower shop and sanctuary book stand XD She also planted 3 of each new crops. We were never speak to each other, I don't know her, but she always helped me as I always helped her. Hey if you read this, I just want you to know, I'm happy you're playing again. :caticon:

Some players never ask for help and some always ask for help. I think most of us fall somewhere in-between. I've been playing hd for nearly 4 years and am fortunate to have many awesome, helpful friends and followers. (I'm glad I haven't deleted the ones that hadn't played for awhile, b/c most of them re-appear at my rss, or leave me a msg. even years later).

Last night I had the chance at my first gold trophy in the CL. On the final boat called, I needed 32 fresh pasta (I had 2, lol). One of my most helpful friends came to the rescue and I will finally win the gold! I thanked him profusely.

Anyway, it's great to help one another. It's what this game was meant to accomplish. Glad you found a supportive player!

Most of my friends bar was developed on instinct... having a good experience with random farms.

one of my friends was Japanese speaking only and their farm name was a 5 digit number. I did a search with gamecenter and their gamecenter ID was the same. They accepted my request.

i friended the other farmer in their hood and began a quest to get their names. They are kurara and nana :blush:

Whenever I see a farm (or a farm name) that I particularly like, I'll send a friend request. It's not necessarily based on what they have in their RSS. Sometimes I just like to visit good-looking farms. They make me smile.

I know what you mean, I once started to follow a high level farm and since then, that farm and I help each other, we are not in the same NH, we have never spoken and don’t think we would understand either, by the farm’s name is chinese, I don’t even know if it is a “he” or “she”, but somehow I feel attached to that farm, I don’t take things from its shop, but I will always always help it with the boat even if I end up having 0 products... it is weird :p

I definitely feel attached to my non NH friends. I always check and help all the friends I can, and when a friend helps me I always go right to their farm and help them right back if they need it. It's an interesting non verbal communication thing indeed!

I also have such a friend, Lena from Russia. Since a year or so, she's not playing anymore.I refuse to remove her, hoping she'll be back some day.We used to thank eachother for help by changing our farm name to "thx Lena"... Come back Lena!

Thank you for the replies. It is nice to know that I'm not alone in this situation. I thought it was me, silly me! 😅👍😂🐮

^^^Not on your own at all! I have two like this. Like deontri above, I have no idea on gender but their farm has Japanese characters for a name and I've been friends with them from nearly the beginning of my game.
Have only recently started back on doing boats (kinda, sorta) and without fail, on the rare occasions I flag, they pop up to help:)
Same with another player that I added a few weeks back. They literally force me to fill docked boats so they can help me back LOL..."open.i fill.much welcome" lol
These guys are Arab, I think? 🤔 Not a lick of a common language between us...cept hayday:)

Gotta love it:) (boaters rock, too!)

I forgot!! The person I mentioned in post #1 is a Japanese!! I wish I could write to her. Something like arigatou gozaimazu or ogenki desuka 😍😍

In March 2014 when I first started farming I followed a farm that began with W. (don't know if I'm allowed to name it). They always had items for sale in their shop that my boat or truck needed, and I would buy from them when I was a lower level player. His / Her shop stand helped me a lot. For whatever reason I unfollowed them a year and a half ago, and have regretted it. 6 months ago I found them again in the roadside shop. I promptly refollowed them. I know it is the original farm because their two person hood has a very unique name.

I have many farm friends that I have originally followed since I was a new farmer and either I was invited to be a friend or I invited them. We help each other's boats and then put what the rest of what the boat needs in our shops. I'd love to be able to reach out and say thank you to each person on my friend list.

For Christmas I make a super nice unadvertised shop at reduced prices for my friends to pick from. I've been messaged through this forum a few friend requests and they have turned out to be great farm friends. (That's you C Farm if you're reading this)

These days I like to friend pretty farms. I appreciate the work that people put into their designs. I have friended a few "raiders", which I unfriended quickly.

I too have a farm friend, Gma Karen, who I have a bond with. We both belong to CL hoods. I keep inviting her to join and she keeps inviting me. It’s sort of a running joke as neither of us apparently want to leave our hood. Karen, if you read this, we have a better record....come on over! Lol

That was great that you found them again via dairy dirt!!

I also love to see pretty farms, if I find one, I absolutely add them as friend. Pretty farm I mean like Greg's farm alike. Not outhouse-shrine farms. I love farms that still have natural looks and well arranged.

I also have raiders, that's why I never put too many goods in my shop, just little bit of this little bit of that. And then put help sign on my nectar bush. They helped my nectar but also cleared my shop. I don't mind they raid my shop if they also help. I will remove all those people who see my help sign as shop advertisement, come to my farm just to buy all the stuff but never help. Gosh it's just a nectar, why wouldn't you help my nectar 😢

I agree with your pretty farm remark. I like to see scenes, not stacked outhouses.

Nope, not just you. I love my in game friends and some followers even though I have no idea as to who they are. I enjoy helping them and looking at the beautiful way they designed their farms always makes me smile 😊

...different weird event; I had a lot of frogs bouncing around in one area, about 100 of them and I rearranged one piece of hedge nearby. About 90% of the frogs began to hop away to a nearby grove of olive trees....and DISAPPEARED! Is that supposed to happen?

Happens all the time in my farm. They always hop into a bush and dissappear.
