Stop selling wheat!!!!!!!

I stopped advertising way before I was at level 40, I've been playing this game for quite a long time, achievements and leveling up was not important to me. I have helped lots lower level players get through their TT, Captains, clear land and help them with much needed coins. I started playing this way right around level 22, so if I was forced to advertise back then, I would not have been able to help the people I did. My rss has always been filled with premium items, I did not need to advertise, my rss did not stay full for long....lol I just recently started to focus more on achievements and I barely just broke 1k in advertising. So, I'm a new wheater, lots of ads and wheat flies off the shelves, wheating is my new obsession and I will stop when people stop buying...lol

do you even realize how many people don't grow their own wheat because it's so readily available! Yesssssss!!

happy wheating🚜🚜🚜🚜

Ditto. What is the reasoning and benefits behind that idea? Why shouldn't players under lvl 40 (or whatever level you decide) NOT have a choice? They are playing the game the same as "higher" level players and should have the same options. If taking that option away from them, then why not take it away from every player? What would happen to the dd? Your trades? See the problem? I'm afraid more than sem trade items would be lost. Just my humble opinion.

When I find a new lvl 7 I always follow them as they are more likely to put up BEM and SEM sometimes even at base price. it's not the under 40 people that have 200+ stalls of wheat for a penny. although I follow those as well. 2000 wheat for 200 coins sells for 3600 to Greg. I'll take that deal any day.

I disagree though as players need to be able to advertise to sell and earn coins.

Sorry Gymgirl...I was saying they could sell just don't have the do not advertise button available to level 40!

There is no advertising privately option. You advertise or you don't. I can't see how punishing lower levels would change the paper. Chances are they don't even know about wheating unless they are forum members. It takes a little while for players to figure out wheating. Before they do, they sell lots of stuff. Like others have said. It's not the lower levels selling wheat.

EXCUSSSSSSSSE me they advertise or they don't (which is a private sale to ther friends) No it's not the lower level selling wheat but if they did a week advertise and a week not advertising...jeezzz that would help player that can fill their boats or fill the townies wants, etc..etc... I just thought I'd was a good idea....but who am I....nobody. They will never do that...they just keep adding to the game!!!

Or have a week on and week off for advertisements....one week we don't get to use the private advertisement button and the next week we do....at least u could try this and see how it goes....

Dang paper is not worth opening up unless u want wheat

All ideas are always welcomed, even the worst one on the list. Maybe SC should wipe out your current progress and make you start the game all over again whenever they decided to implement your brilliant idea. I'm positive over 90% of the new players will delete HD before reaching level 10.

I agree -- when I got to the level where my shop opened, I was THRILLED BEYOND BELIEF when someone bought my stuff :) That made he game very fun, back when all I had was a dairy, a sugar mill, and a bread oven :)

Well, that's a lot of hate for this idea. I think it's an interesting one. What if there was no way of taking out the advertisement. If you sold something, it would go in the paper every five minutes.. The same should be for all levels though. Noone would be able to trade or sell to their neighbors only. I think it would probably improve the paper quite a bit.. No more raiding, it wouldn't exist..

The old players would hate it of course because they are used to how it is now.. But what if you just started playing? Would you hate it? Well, I guess there would come a time for everybody when you would want to sell something to your friend and it wouldn't be nice not to be able to do so. But if you never had that option, you would just view the rss as a place to sell in the paper. Not a place to sell to your friends like it is now.

Thanks Perky, you took me right back to that first sale in the tutorial, wondering if anyone would ever buy the ear of corn, then YESSSS!!! Such a sweet moment.

When I am shopping the DD I keep a special eye out for players under level 10, and always buy their stuff, whatever it is. Maybe they are having that fond moment too?

The dislike for the idea is because it is just bad.

The problem is twofold: the algorithm that SC uses to pick the paper, and supply and demand. That's what needs to change. And supply and demand is unlikely to change.
