See, you are actually very likely to hit Bulls-eye right there. And in my opinion, Holidae and several other "older" forummembers, are in my opinion not really against many of the ideas/requests being posted, but maybe just more realistic about what will be changed in the game, and for now just trying to give a bit of input, on how to try and manage things as they are now. Other forummembers choose how they react on that.
Anyone is free to try to fight, for what they wan't right here and right now, and I will wish them good luck in that fight, and as Holidae ask the same question - what will you do, if it will take months or years, if it will ever be a part of the game?
And also - what will you do right now, where it is the way it is?

If this takes months to implement or never happens, then what do you do?

Then natural attrition will take place and less players will be playing...quite simple actually. Something needs to be done or people will just move on to something else to do. I am not sitting idly waiting for something to be done but sitting there accepting all the faults that could be improved without doing something. It's nice to be positive all the time but unfortunately life isn't just about positives and by improving the negatives you'll get positive. It's called take action.

If the amount of time to make lobster traps and nets were reduced to more reasonable time then I feel making the duck tube may not be such an issue and a new machine would not be needed. Also the fact that the duck tube and salon process only produces one feather is quite bothersome.

My net maker is also overtaxed and I can't possibly fill all of the orders I have for lobster tails and feathers, but I am okay with that. Part of what makes this game interesting to me is that it has a bit of a challenge to it. I would quickly lose interest if I could just click a button to fill every order.

The same is true for honey production, if you try to fill all honey orders you will quickly be overrun with dead bushes.

It's the deciding which orders to fill, what to make next, who to send away, and so on that keeps the game interesting for me.

Speaking for myself, I do not use diamonds to speed up the net maker. I just stop making lobster nets and turn away any part of the game asking for lobster. For me, it is better to get the 1000 duck feathers then have lobsters. If SC wanted me to buy the diamonds to speed up the net maker it did not work on me.

You are actually not only speaking for yourself, you are speaking for me to. We choose, how to manage things as they are, and accept not being able to do everything. And I could just use some of my 1.086 all free diamonds, but I choose not to. I'm more after the achievements and the last fish for my fishingbook.
I make lobster nets when I'm sleeping, and duck traps when I'm awake. It's all a choice about management of things as they are right now.
