"I can't stop watching my crops!" – FarmVille Freak

Some users have been experiencing problems posting feeds. FarmVille is aware of the problem and working on a fix. Hold tight if you are having difficulty with posting or farming in general as there always seems to be someone suffering from intermittent problems accessing their FarmVille farm for the millionth time.

In a message box found above your FarmVille farms, Zynga left farmers a message letting us know that all will be okay eventually.

“Hey there Farmers! We’re aware of the current posting issues so thanks for your patience as we’re working to get you back onto your Farm.”

Have you experiencing this issue or some other FarmVille technical problem lately? If so, what?

Zynga is aware of the issue and working on a fix.

From FarmVille:

Some FarmVille Freaks are reporting they are having difficulty harvesting and mastering which is kind of important for FarmVille doings.

Zynga is aware of the issue and working on a fix. They’ve made an announcement regarding the issue above the FarmVille loading screen which reads,

“Hi, farmers! We’ve seen that some players are having some difficulty harvesting or mastering. We’re taking a look to see if we can get everything back to normal again. Thanks for hanging on while we look into this!”

Are you experiencing issues harvesting or mastering in FarmVille? 

FarmVille announced via the announcement box found above FarmVille loading screen, that they are aware of the issue regarding Cow Tulip harvests not counting towards quest tasks. They are actively working on a solution.

Howdy, FarmVille Freaks! If you can’t get on your FarmVille farm, you are not alone.FarmVille is currently experiencing issues that may prevent some of you from accessing your farms and playing FarmVille.

Zynga has turned off withering to protect your precious crops as they work on a fix.

Many FarmVille Freaks have been experiencing technical issues with FarmVille today, specifically the “Woah Farmer” error.

Zynga is aware of the problem and working on a swift fix. Here is their message below which can be found above the FarmVille loading screen in the yellow box.

“Howdy Farmers, we are aware of the Whoa Farmer issue that some are experiencing, and we’re working toward a fix as fast as possible. Thanks, and happy farming! Also, which side of a chicken has the most feathers? …The Outside!”

Have you experienced problems with FarmVille today such as the “Woah Farmer” error? 

FarmVille Sad Cow

One of the most often complaints that we receive at FarmVilleFreak.com (see email examples below) involves FarmVille game technical issues. Although we can’t help fix your tech problems (despite the mean emails from those of you that think we can), what we can do is let you know about what Zynga is doing to help. Most of the tech problems we hear about range from “My farm won’t load!” to “Where are my neighbors?” and “What happened to all my gifts?” not to forget about the “I can’t post anything to the feed!!” Oh, there’s also the “Woah Farmers” and Out of Sync (OOS) Sad Cows.

There’s lots of problems on the farm, and Zynga is taking note. You may have noticed the feature found at the top of the FarmVille Loading screen/play area as shown in the image below. It features a few tabs of the most common FarmVille technical problems. All you have to do is click on the problem that you are experiencing and it will let Zynga know what problems farmers are having and help diagnose a fix.

We’d like to remind you that FarmVilleFreak.com is a fan site ran by FarmVille players! We are here to help you and hopefully make your gaming experience more enjoyable.  Although we like to hear from you all the time including what complaints or problems you are having in FarmVille, we can’t fix your tech issue or reimburse you missing Farm Cash. These problems are out of our control. We realize that some FarmVille Freaks are just confused, but more importantly they are frustrated and we are too since we can’t help. Here’s a few recent unedited complaint emails that we received in just the past couple of days, user name removed.

“To whom it may concern:

It has been almost 2 weeks now that my neighbor feed below my farms hasn’t work. Is there any reason why that this hasn’t been fixed yet as this plays a big part in the game with us players getting things from our neighbors.

#2 Why is the game gotten so slow as it used to be pretty quick?

#3 For all the hard work we did on the Hawaiian and the Jade farms why aren’t we being give a free shipping license like we go on the rest of our farms. They are nice to have but not everyone has that kind of farm cash.

#4 Why doesn’t anyone ever get back to us and let us know what is going on? You keep saying we are working on the problem be patient well patience only goes so far then you would like to see that someone is trying to help and fix the problems that us players are having.

Thank you and hope to hear from someone as to what and when we can expect things to get fixed be quicker and run smoother.”

“ My FarmVille page is Not loading…Please fix it for me. Thanks”

“I just can’t believe that you expect us to pay out good money for something on this game, when the game has so many problems. For example the feed below my farm hasn’t worked in over 2 weeks but, I keep seeing the message we are working on the problem. Well it seems to me, you need to find some techs that know what the hell they are doing and get these problems fix because the ones you have now I guess can’t fix them. I am just wondering to you give out better customer service to those who spend a lot of money compared to those who don’t, because your customer service really sucks big time. I mean it the past we got things like farm cash or other things for us having to wait for things to get fixed but now you don’t even do that anymore. I mean I send you all e-mails and no one there even bothers to reply. And now you want us to dish out money for a shipping licence on a product with so many flaws well I don’t think so.”

“When on God’s good earth are you going to get the neighbor feed fixed?”

 

FarmVille FarmVille Photo Notice

FarmVille has finally returned the ability to take photos on your farm with a new in-game function! Please note, this feature is slowly rolling out to all farmers.

Many people were sad to see the Photo feature removed from FarmVille. Of course there’s other ways to take images of your farm using keyboard shortcuts, but the simple in-game photo button has been gone quite a long time.  Well it’s back and photo-snapping farmers will be happy to know that the Photo feature has returned, and with improvements!

You will be able to take photos of your farm and share them with your friends. And there’s more too. Not only will you be able to take photos, you can also tweak your image with zoom function and ready-made filters, sort of like the popular Instagram app.

To access the new Photo feature simply click on the same old Camera icon found on your FarmVille toolbar towards the bottom right. It is directly above the Travel icon.

Are you excited about this new feature and eager to take pictures of your FarmVille farm? What do you think about this feature? Show us your favorite FarmVille photos using this new feature and we will share it on FarmVilleFreak.com. Send your pics to farmgoddess@farmvillefreak.com today!

What? You didn’t know you had a Facebook email? No one did.

Today, Facebook changed everyone’s default email, the contact email that you have displayed on your Facebook profile Timeline, to a Facebook Email. The email that you chose to have displayed will stay hidden until you change your settings. The change was made without warning or consent, but that’s how Facebook seems to be doing things nowadays. Good news is that it’s an easy fix that will only inconvenience you for a little bit.

So if you’d like to change your default back to the old email of your choice here’s what to do:

• Go to your Facebook Profile
• Click on Account Settings or click on the “About” button on your profile
• Under your General Account settings/ Basic Info you’ll see your “Contact Info”
• Edit Email
• Check “Shown in Timeline” or “Hidden from Timeline” on each of your contact emails listed to display (or not display) the emails of your choice
