We are a friendly, helpful, international neighbourhood. We care more about friendships than winning derbies and our main focus is on chatting, getting to know each other and helping each other out. We are pretty laid back and don’t pressure each other to play a certain way.
We do have a few guidelines to help things run smoothly:
1. You must be active on chat. If you are inactive on chat for several weeks with no explanation, you will be removed from the neighbourhood.
2. We generally sell everything at full price, but if you are short on coins, feel free to ask for a discount and we can often do so.
3. We tell the neighbourhood when we’ve put expansion materials or a great sale up in our shops. We offer these items to our neighbours first.
4. We ask that you don’t buy up neighbourhood ems and use them to trade outside the neighbourhood.
5. We play the derby, but in a laid-back fashion. We generally do five tasks each, but it’s up to the individual as to which tasks they choose. We do not ask you to spend diamonds on an extra task and you’re free to opt out of the derby if you want or if real life obligations get in the way. We do not monitor tasks completed and we won’t ask you how many tasks you’ve done. We enjoy earning all the horseshoes so we have a chance at getting some goodies or those special decorations
6. English only in chat please.
If you think you’d be a good fit, feel free to give us a go! Or drop us a PM through the forum. Look for “Close to Home” – blue horse on a purple background. Look for our leader – Judi.
