I'm curious, do you guys hoard followers or delete them?
I actually go through my follower list every day, so I delete inactive farms. I'm trying to keep my followers under 50 because I becomes kinda tedious, lol. If I wouldn't have deleted people I would have over 400 followers! Too many to go through every day.
I have to delete once they reach 100. If I don't I lose my most faithful followers who have been with me from the beginning. Once it reaches 100, the first followers drop from the list.
I changed my farm name asking people to add me to Game Center, much easier that way, as the followers list is a pain in the bum to scroll through.
I finally took advantage of the delete follower feature the other day and trimmed my followers down in half (33 now). I used to love seeing my followers count go up...somewhat of an ego booster but since I rarely advertise in the DD nowadays and don't help random farms in the paper, my followers count became stagnant. Many of them were inactive farms so it was time to cut bait. My followers list is more manageable now and it's easier to access active followers.
I'm an evil deleter :o I have hardly ever advertised in the paper, so have only had about 6 or 7 followers in the whole time I've played. Most of these people would follow me and then pop in and raid my store every time I filled it, and they never helped me out with anything, even if I gave up my last sugar or something for them - so, off with their heads lol.
I do still have one follower, who has been there for quite a while. This person is very helpful and I enjoy being able to help them back so I definitely do not want to delete them. I only wish I could add them on GC.
I have only ever deleted one follower. I'm considering deleting some more, as I have 25 right now, but only about 10 of them are active so I help them. I do have a couple out of those active ones that raid my shop, but never really help, until the other day one of them finally did help my boat. I have one that likes to buy my default price silo stuff and sell it full price on his shop lol. But I don't care about that.
I delete when I'm certain the farm is inactive, just to keep scrolling to a minimum. Same with my friends list, although I'm really slow to delete from there. I have one friend who used to be a daily player, then one day in November, she suddenly dropped off Hay Day. Don't have the heart to delete her, I keep hoping she'll return.
Back in the fall I did delete one friend b/c I got sick & tired of reading her "play nice" messages. (Share! Take one! Don't be greedy! Etc etc) Too high maintenance, I hated worrying if I was going to offend.
Beyond that, the more the merrier.
I think I'll wait before I delete any followers.
Hopefully, your friend returns and it's just a temporary absence.Quote:

I have only deleted one follower. Some farms are inactive for awhile and then come back, so I don't want to delete them. I wish we could arrange the list, or it was arranged by when last played. That would make it more manageable.
I have been deleted by one of my followers! Shock, unbelievable..despair! Mind you I really haven't bothered much with my followers, so I have only got myself to blame :eek:
I don't really do either. I don't advertise in the DD very often so I really don't get many new ones. I currently have 8 who are all really great followers.
