Official FarmVille April 9th Podcast Transcript
FarmVille Podcast – April 9th:
“Hey Farmers! Welcome to the Official FarmVille podcast! My name is Lexilicious, and I am the FarmVille Community Manager. This week, we are going to be going over some of our newest releases, I will be answering some User Submitted Questions about the FarmVille team and you guys are all going to get a sneak peek of things coming to FarmVille in the near future.
Well, as I am sure most of you know, this week was absolutely jam packed with releases. From our new Far East Limited Edition items to brand spanking new features and content, the FarmVille team was really looking to impress this week.
Due to popular demand, early this week we brought back some of our old Limited Edition items as permanent fixtures in the Market, including favorites like the Clydesdale and the Blue Gazing Ball. Our Far East Limited Edition set also kicked off this week featuring some very cool new animals, decorations and even crops. Stay tuned in the coming weeks for more great Far East Limited Edition items to add to your farm. We also added a total of 4 new Co-op missions for everyone, including Frantic for Flowers, Stirring things up, Very Berry Field Trip and Tossing Tomatoes.
As per usual a new Mystery Box made an appearance this week, featuring some “duck” themed items. Remember, Mystery Boxes can be purchased from the market for 16 Farm Cash. If you are interested in this Ducky Mystery Box, make sure to grab it before it disappears early next week.
And lastly, this week heralded the release of the long awaited Pets feature! The response from our community about the new puppies has been enormous and we would like to thank you for all of your feedback and opinions the past few days. I have also noticed that there was some initial confusion about how the puppies worked, so I am going to go ahead and give a quick run-down on this feature, which should alleviate any questions or concerns some of you may have.
Puppies can be purchased from the Market for either Farm Cash or coins. Your new puppy will follow you wherever you go, and will eventually become a full grown dog!
You can purchase the Red Border Collie for 300,000 Coins from the Market. Currently, this is the only breed and color that can be purchased for coins. If you change the color or breed, you will be charged Farm Cash for your purchase. When you click Buy, a pop-up will appear, letting you know that you’ll need to feed your puppy every day in order to keep it from running away. Clicking Okay on this pop-up will take you to the Puppy Customization screen.
At this point, you can pick a Name and gender for your puppy. Once you’re ready to purchase your Red Border Collie, click the Buy button. You’ll receive a popup reminding you to feed your puppy Kibble once every 24 hours, or it will run away.
Once your puppy is placed on your farm, it will run up to you with a thought bubble over its head with Kibble inside. This means that your puppy is hungry and needs kibble!
There is a reason for the numerous pop-ups telling you to feed your pup. In order to keep your puppy from going to the pound, you’ll need to feed it Kibble once every 24 hours for a period of 14 days. Now, there are a few ways you can get Kibble for your furry friend. You can purchase kibble from the Market for 5 Farm Cash or you can ask your friends to send you kibble.
Clicking the “Ask Your Friends” button will give you the option to post a feed that if clicked, will allow three of your neighbors send you one bag of Kibble each. This feed remains active for up to 24 hours, or until three neighbors have clicked it. Each neighbor that helps you will receive 100 Coins.
All Kibble you receive (whether from Neighbors or from the Market) will automatically go into your Gift Box.To view the status of your puppy, simply mouseover your pet, and you’ll see how many times out of 14 that they’ve been fed. If they’re currently hungry, you’ll see how much time you have before they run away. If they’ve already been fed once for the day, you’ll see a timer showing how long you have before they’re hungry again.
Now, if you are a neglectful owner and forget to feed your puppy, they’ll end up in the pound, and you’ll need to pay to get them out. When you enter FarmVille after your puppy’s run away, there will be an icon in the upper-left hand corner of your screen with a puppy behind bars. Once you click on this icon, you’ll receive a pop up informing you that your puppy is in the pound.
From the Pets section of the Market, you will have to pay 3 Farm Cash to free your puppy from the pound.Remember that you may only have one Coin purchased puppy. That means that if your puppy goes to the pound, you cannot purchase another Coin puppy. You’ll have to retrieve your original puppy from the pound or purchase a new Puppy from the Market with Farm Cash.
Now, if you don’t want to deal with the stress of a Coin Puppy, you can buy the Golden Retriever, Sheep Dog, and Border Collie for 65 Farm Cash Each. Each Puppy has the option for three different colors, along with the same options as the Coin Option puppy. The Cash puppy also comes with a 2 weeks supply of Kibble.
You may purchase as many Farm Cash puppies as you want, and they will not run away if they are not fed.
And remember Farmers… eventually, all puppies, if well taken care of will become full grown dogs in the future!
Alright, well that’s about it for features this week. As always, if you have an opinion, feedback or question you would like to share with the FarmVille team please make sure to visit the official farmville forums orwww.farmville.com.
On that note, let’s go ahead and get into answering some questions from the FarmVille Community!Our first question comes to us from Gillmoor, and they’re worried about a pair of puppies. They apparently have to take their real puppy to the vet and are worried they won’t be able to make it back to their farm in time to feed their new FarmVille puppy. Since this has been a pretty heated topic, and Gillmoor’s not the only person to ask about it, I thought it’d be a good idea to explain the timing for feeding your puppy. Once you buy and place your puppy, this starts a counter of 24 hours from the point they’re on your farm. That means you have 24 hours from that point to feed him before he or she runs away. Once you feed your puppy, you have the rest of that 24 hours before they become hungry again. So let’s say that your puppy gets hungry and you wait 8 hours to feed it? Once you feed it, you’ve got 16 hours before it gets hungry again. Once it gets hungry, you’ve got another 24 hours to feed it before it runs away. Hopefully, that clears things up.
Our next question comes to us from, Highdef2005 who’d like to know if there’s a specific place to find our Podcasts other than the FarmVille Fan Page? Well, Highdef, currently all of our podcasts are hosted on Youtube and can be found at w-w-w-dot-youtube.com-forwardslash-ZyngaFarmville. That’s our Youtube page where you can find all of previous podcasts, and check for new ones as soon as they’re added.
Our last question comes to us from Crypstal, who was wondering if I have a Farm and if I could show it off. I do indeed have a farm, and I’d be happy to let all of you see it. Just search for Lexi Smith on Facebook to find my account and send me a friend request. I’ll be more than happy to add you as a neighbor so you can check out my Farm. Now, my farm is nowhere near as awesome as some of our users, even with all the free stuff. I’m just not creative as you guys! But, I would still be more than happy to add members of the FarmVille Community.
In other news, the Battle of the Barnyard’s still going strong! If you weren’t already aware, the Cows and Sheep of FarmVille are crossing hooves over whose Secret Animal will be revealed in the Market. Just go to Facebook and search for either FarmVille Cows or FarmVille Sheep to visit their respective Fan Pages, and show your support by becoming a Fan of your favorite animal. The first Fan Page to reach 2 Million Fans will have their Secret Animal unlocked in the Market and available to purchase for 12 Farm Cash! As of the recording of this podcast, the Cows for a Brighter FarmVille are currently leading the Honored Society of the Illustrious Flock by over 250,000 votes with just under 700,000 Fans to go before they reach 2 Million.
To cast your vote, search for FarmVille Cows or FarmVille Sheep and be sure to check out their Info section of each one for a special message, as well as more information on the Battle.
As I mentioned earlier in the Podcast, your new puppies will grow up into dogs if they are well cared for. For this week’s coming soon segment, I also have some additional information about Pets that you guys might find interesting.
In addition to fully grown pets performing special tricks, we will also be introducing new breeds of dog. Before this happens, we want to hear the feedback of our community. What breed of dog would you like to see come to farmville? If you have any ideas for new furry friends that you would like added to the game, please make sure to visit the FarmVille forums or www.farmville .com to have your say.
You guys should also get ready to build a Nursery Barn for your Baby Foals and Calves. If you are interested, this new building will allow you to help your baby animals grow up into productive adults.
And now that Co-op farming is finally out, a new “Instant Grow” consumable will be coming soon to help you guys accomplish your missions even faster. Make sure to keep an eye out for these new features in the near future.
Alright Folks, that’s it from me this week! I will be back next Friday to give all of you your latest FarmVille news and updates. Again, my name is Lexilicious and I will see you guys soon! Happy Farming everybody.” (Source: Official FarmVille Forum )
What is your favorite part about this week’s Podcast? I am excited about new Dog breeds! If you are too, what Dog breeds would you like to see the most?

Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 9:14 pm
I’m positive this insta-grow will be outrageously expensive
Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 9:16 pm
Waiting for the nursery barns,hope it come true with COINS!
Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 9:18 pm
i only hope the nursery barns not cost FV cash i will only pay coins for that
Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 9:22 pm
Her voice is FINE stop hating. Jerks. Her name is fine, her voice is fine, and she brings YOU farmville info, she doesn’t have to read all that for her health.
Apparently FVF likes HATORADE recently.
Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 9:23 pm
Oh, and Farmville is NOT innocent. It rips off everyone, as fun as it is – they’re just greedy bastards anyway. Next think you know you’ll be able to get bacon from your pigs.
Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 9:30 pm
insta grow gonna be like 30 FV$ for like 3 times just like the damn unwither
Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 9:35 pm
@10 it’d be awesome to have a mule! I guess everyone be having a donkey!
I’d like to see St. Bernard, Mastiff, Newfoundland, and Irish Wolf hound, and also a dachshund! But it should be proportioned correctly!
Sorry for my derogatory comments on Ms. Lexi. She is a bold women to publicly announce her FB ID, gotta give her for that!
Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 10:01 pm
I do the same thing, no time to listen to podcast, I just read the summary, so simple, without trying to make things extra ordinary, and all these information we already know.
btw, I was thinking the day before (when I couldnt get gold reward for few minutes), that when your friend fertilize your crops, it would not only look bigger, it would grow 5% more too, lol. Now like Ola, I am thinking same way, they may make this feature expensive with fv cash. I dont understand why people who uses cash will need co-op items, they can buy gazebos, they can buy pagoda, and to make them use more money, zynga will always have some items, either in mystery box or will bring back those to new customers, hehe.
Anyway, who cares, either coin users or dollar users, no one can be happy, there will be always there something we want, even after getting that we will always want more, lol.
Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 10:10 pm
btw, I bought the puppy just before going to bed, now every day at 2.43 am I have to feed the puppy, darn, for next 2 weeks whether I want to stay up or not! Someone in zynga forum said, he/she couldnt pic a name and thought buy the puppy name later, and bought with cash, now he/she is stuck with that puppy with a name he/she can’t stand, lol. I am sorry, but its funny, spot, the puppy will have this name forever….nah, nothing is forever in farmville!
Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 10:11 pm
I’m glad to see others can’t stand her voice. She talks way to romantic for a farm podcast. Whenever she has that guy stand in for her is a HUGE relief. She seems nice, but she should definitely work at 1900-lexiliscious instead. (yuck)
She has 113 friends, but when I tried to friend her it said she had to many friends. She probably has 300,000 requests pending and the limit is 5000. Not sure what she was thinking!
Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 10:23 pm
No doubt, that the insta-grow thingy will cost FARM$$$$$$$$ just like the UNWITHER SPRAY, lol
Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 10:42 pm
we should be able to grow Henna for the far east theme.
Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 10:55 pm
i think the nursery barns will be built like the horse stables and the maison,..requiring you a lot of materials.
Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 10:57 pm
this is what they said about the nursery barn:
“You guys should also get ready to BUILD a Nursery Barn for your Baby Foals and Calves”
Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 11:21 pm
i dont want my foals and calfs to grow up it would take to much room and i get more money for calfs compared to cows
Posted on April 9th, 2010 at 11:34 pm
The FarmVille background music is verrrry annoying and distracting. I have disabled it in FV – wish I could do the same with podcast. Lexilicious voice is too syrupy – the fellow who filled in for her should replace her. Podcast transcript is easier to follow than narrative.
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 1:45 am
@ Uglyaliencow– No, you don’t have to stay up to feed the dog…
I did the same thing, bought the thing late at night, not realizing that it doesn’t get hungry until 24 hours (and no sooner!) after you feed it. I’ve been letting the thing go hungry at night (from about 10:30 until 9:30 am) & then feeding it. I just get the “Feed now” and the ticker saying I have 23 hours left to feed b4 it runs away. It still gets hungry at the same time at night, but I wait until the morning to feed it.
&& Regarding the podcast–
New breeds of dogs would be nice; however, I really hope they have another coin version. FV cash dogs are allowed in multiples, I think that having 2 coin dogs would be nice.
As for the nursery buildings.. Most of us have too many calves/fowls AND cows/horses… why would we want to grow them up to make more?
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 2:03 am
the nursery building is not so fair!! cause many can adopt foals but have not buy one so if it turn into adults those who bought the initial ones will be ..hurted!!
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 2:47 am
Hey!
I would like to have a english bulldog puppy and old english mastiff.
And i really, really hope to get some pony again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bye
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 3:29 am
Please add more one coin dog!!!
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 4:06 am
Oh so happy about the place to put the calves!! I have so many, and I hate sitting there clicking all of them to harvest, it was very time consuming. I have been hoping they would do something to put all the calves in one place like the dairy farm. And I am glad the calves will actually be growing…
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 4:06 am
I would be more interested in just WHAT these dogs will be able to do, besides sit there and look pretty LOL! For example, the sheep dog is supposed to help herd sheep–HUH? I thought everyone had them fenced in or set to “stay” put. And another dog is supposed to be able to fetch–well FETCH WHAT? And one is supposed to do “tricks?” What tricks? I think these questions should’ve been answered in the podcast.
And if more dogs are going to be added, I wonder if they will have some kind of function? What’s the point of recommending to Zynga what breed of dog to have LOL. Everyone is just going to want whatever dog they have in real life or could have if they can’t have pets.
I also noticed some documentation about the puppies released “after much confusion” or whatever. Well such documentation should ALWAYS be released BEFORE the new animal or event is started! I hope Zynga learned that from all the complaints and in the future they can release the instructions AHEAD OF TIME, and have fewer questions and complaints! Who cares if it spoils the surprise. Everything does not have to be a surprise!
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 4:34 am
Want Dachshunds!!!
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 4:42 am
I’d like to see and English Springer Spaniel and a Dachshund!
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 5:41 am
WHEN THE PUPPY IS HUNGRY, HOW MUCH TIME DO WE HAVE TO FEED IT BEFORE IT RUN AWAY TO THE POUND???
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 5:42 am
Thanks for the laughs, people! (Especially you, # 32 Jen…Lexi does have a 1-900 voice!) I think the girl farmers are jealous of Lexi’s sexy voice! Not me, I am just glad to get FarmVille information and wish Lexi all the best! (I do wonder what se LOOKS like, though!!!!) (I know girls, lets hope she is butt ugly!)
As for the sheds for foals and calves…I have plenty of horses and cows, don’t need any more UNLESS we get those PROMISED Dairy Barn expansions. THEN, I might want to quick grow some calves!
Also, it depends on what they (growing barns) look like. I am an admittedly vain farmer and will not build an ugly building. Have you guys thought that you might LOVE THE BUILDING and build it just for the look of the thing? Lots of things in FarmVille have no function outside of ornamentation!
The “quick grow” spray for crops is a neat idea…It would be no different than spending FC for a wedding gazebo than if one “quick grew” the co-op tulip crop to win a wedding gazebo! I might not spend FC on it, but it is nice to have options, isn’t it?
Options are always good whether we chose to excercize them or not: Thanks for the neat idea, FarmVille!
Have a lovely Saturday, Good People. Happy farming!
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 5:54 am
Be the first Farmville and give us a naked Chinese Crested
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 6:02 am
Erm, yay for different dogs coz I hate the current ones!
But if they are making calves/foals grow up, surely no one will buy the adult ones?
Hey I think its cool tho, all my neighbours can grow the foals I have them and give me foals yay!
Will a white foal grow into a stallion tho?
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 6:20 am
Hi I was playing Fv yeasturdaty and was on the home paage and was hiding other games so I could see when people post stuff from FV and I click on hid FV how do I fix that? Please help me.
Mrs Dixon
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 7:14 am
Would love to see a Spaniel but will only get it if it is for cions.
Yah I don’t really see the point of the calves and foals growing up unless they are the limited item ones. But then we will have a hoard of people yelling around that it is hurting them (physically or emotionally, I wonder) to see someone else get a limited edition horse for free. Boohoo!
The insta grow sounds like fun but like the unwither I’m not going to pay FV cash for it. If it were a one time purchase under 30 FV one might think about it. Otherwise it beats the point of getting the free reward … I might as well spend the FV and buy it in the first place.
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 7:20 am
Hi… I would love to see lhasa apso’s and shih tzu’s.
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 7:31 am
why do so many people complain. if you dont like the music the game or everything then dont play and certainly dont come here and tell people
its just a game, its fun but theres no need to act immature. if you dont have anything constructive to say then dont leave a comment.
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 7:45 am
I’d like to see a bull dog puppy or a saint bernard puppy.When it grows up it can be like CUJO.
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 9:53 am
so people who paid money or saved their FVC up to get the rare horses are basically getting ripped off. their freeloader neighbors get FREE calfs and foals that grow up to do the same things that others paid tons of FVC for. wtf
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 10:46 am
i hope that the new buildings do not require 50 building materials from neighbours
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 10:46 am
I would realllllllllllllllly like a change in the chicken eggs.They have got well boring to collect now.Can we plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz have some new items in them.
Thanx
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 10:49 am
To those who object to the baby animals being allowed to grow up did you ever consider that this could be a way for some of you to get the special foals and calves?
I have seen many complaints about spending money on special animals only to not be allowed to adopt your own foals and calves. Well now if you have neighbours that choose to raise your special foals and claves, maybe you can get one of your own!
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 11:43 am
I would like to see a Newfoundland or Saint Brenard in Farmville!
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 11:58 am
I’m happy about the growing up foals, b/c now my friends can grow the foals I’ve produced and I can get some foals back. Yeah I paid some farm cash, but that was my choice plus now I’ll be able to produce more special foals for my friends. This game is all about being social and sharing, that’s the reason it’s on a social networking site.
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 12:15 pm
i have tons of animals and i think that farmville should make some more animal shelters like a pig sty so u can chuck a wild boar in and get some pigglets
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 12:22 pm
we need some thing for our sheep leys bread them and get lambs such as the green lamb or the heart lamb got two much sheep on my farm got 100 valentine sheep 50 shamrock sheep nthat only cost ten things and 20 sping sheep that cost 20 sping eggs
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 12:33 pm
@5Celcius – I totally agree. When I read the podcast notes I couldn’t believe that all my neighbors who don’t ever spend money on this game will be able to have the same animals as me because they have my foals and calves. It may be childish, but I am not posting anymore rare animal calves or foals!
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 2:06 pm
Sounds great.
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 3:54 pm
what happend to the chocolate cows im annoyed now because i really wanted one
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 5:51 pm
We need more land….otherwise there won’t room left for new barns, new homes or whatever new gifts offered !!!
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 6:26 pm
So after we feed our coin puppies for 2 weeks, it turns into a dog….Will the grown dog never run away then???? That really wasn’t answered.
Posted on April 10th, 2010 at 6:31 pm
Uh, no. I do NOT like the idea of a nursery to grow up the animal. Why would they let people freeload off of those who payed farm cash for the animals? I share calfs and babies as a gift, because those are FREE to get and give. Many of the adult animals, however, cost real money!
I paid to support the game, and I see these items as small rewards for my patronage. I’m damn well not paying everybody’s way. If they let people grow their animals for free or coins, I won’t put any more money into the game. What’s the point? This makes me boiling furious. It’s still pretty early to panic, but If this happens I will damn well launch a complaint.

Ah come on dude. It’s just a game, don’t get all furious. You’re wasting your time being furious. You spent money.. that’s your own choice.

I can’t believe people are getting this worked up over the possibility of their neighbors getting adult rare animals for free. If FV allows babies to grow up and you don’t want your neighbors to have them, don’t post the link. It’s that simple. I’m looking forward to a place to keep mine.

Wouldn’t it be a bit stupid growing your calf’s into cows.
80 coins/24 hours for your calf, and it takes up 1m².
6 coins/24 hours for your cow, and it takes up 4m².
Losing 74 coins per animal. Real smart.

Thank you Jade, TorontoFarmer and S for being a voice of reason.
Sadly we have way too many petty people playing Farmville who just cannot see anything else thrive and who do not believe in helping people if they get nothing in return.
Personally if I spend money on a horse, I would be happily posting foals all over the place and making sure my friends got them. I think it is great that only one of us has to spend the money and everyone else can get it for free without wasting their money on a duplicate.
It is just sad to see so much pettiness and selfishness in people. The concept of just helping out a friend or neighbour seems to be dead.

I wonder how the instagrow will work. Like will it be per plot or what and will you get the same amount of xp or no xp. I am sure it will cost a lot of $$$$s.

I love how people call me petty for not wanting to support freeloaders. YOU have a lot of nerve. If this was something that ended just with MY neighbours, then fine. I could deal with that. But if my neighbours are able to grow their babies, breed and give them to their neighbours, and their neighbours to their neighbours, then suddenly 300 people I don’t even know have a free animal that I paid for in the market. How is that even remotely acceptable? Sure, it’s just a game, until it involves my hard-earned money and being tricked out of it. And sure, I chose to pay for the item, but I didn’t choose to share that item with a whole bunch of other people, let alone complete strangers. I think it’s more pathetic for people that play for free to jump on the chance to grab these animals without paying for them themselves, so please don’t call ME greedy or petty or selfish. I’m aware not everyone can afford to pay and many simply choose not to, but that certainly isn’t my fault. It’s the people that pay that help keep the game alive, and let me tell you, there is little reason to pay at all if you can mooch off of others and reap the benefits.

[If FV allows babies to grow up and you don’t want your neighbors to have them, don’t post the link]
I will take this advice if need be, thank-you, though that would be a shame, because I do like letting my neighbours to have the free babies. Of course, that doesn’t account for the fact I’ve already given away many animals. On more consideration, I think if they charged farm cash (around the cost of the animal) to buy the nursery, that would be okay too.

i want to hav nursery barn……i hav 10 adult clydesdale and 5 adult percheron…..i hope my rare horse will give a cute foal for everyone….

I have a different subject matter that I would like everyone’s opinion on getting the Arborists, Farmhands and Puppy Kibble out of the gift box. Have somewhere else to store these consumables or enlarge the gift box again to at least 75 – 100. If you are lucky enough to collect a few consumables then you have no room in your gift box to try for collections, mystery eggs, etc.

Zistca, posting number 79, dont let yourself get down, i am 100 prozent on your siode and i think you are right, why should we pay and all others grab our stuff, i have neighbours who grab what they can get without eeven using the word thank you. i make foals all day, all exept the brown pony and white stallion, i always look out for the wandeing one, lots of time goes in the breeding, i enjoy it, so i give the foals in links to those who appreciate it or who really ask for them or dont even have one yet because some gready freaking people act like the simple words thank you were foreign!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i dont think i should pay and strangers that got added, that i dont know, by the wyay who do not even post a thing, not even a egg or collectibles grab my precious hard worked and payd for foals. I dont expect anything, some sell them for mysteryboxes or what so ever, they dont even share, they really want something from the market or no foal. i would never ever do that. i have removed some of these gready people from my list, not sharing and then grabbing all you can get
(( i always produce, never expect anything, never, but i would really appreciate a simple thank you. i have helped people out who had nothing on foals, i gave some so many, i shared with old and young neighbours, some gave me a thank you gift ,a mysterybox once in a while, or a rabbit or what so ever, only once in a while. i feel uncompfturble when i get gifted because i gave some foals to them without them asking for the foals. but i was happy for the little thank yous. i have a neighbourwho is not even 10 years old, i gave him 5 foals yesterday as i haed a good day breeding. just reading his happy words and imagining his little smile that he had on his face, that is what makes me happy and that is the reason i share with people, to make them happy and not to suck market items out oftheir pokets like some users on farmville, shame on you.

Let’s have a pound “rescue” puppy of no distinct breed. since there are so many dogs that need homes, let’s encourage non purebred rescue dogs.

Dear Zynga,
Not everyone has the time to log in on the weekends (we have lives separate from Farmville) . . . so guess what . . my puppy ran away and now it will cost 3 FV to get it back . . . keep your freaking dog. The terms are unreasonable for people unless you want to marry yourself to FV (same with the coop . . what a bogus deal)
Posted on April 12th, 2010 at 12:25 pm
grace- how long was the timer done before he ran away, i fed mine after 5 hours of beeing hungry because i didnt have time to go online, he was still there, now im going to be gone tomorrow all day, and i will have to feed him about 8 hours after the timer runs out, will he be gone then?

Look again kids…..Lexi Smith may be one of the names she uses..Open up Lexi friend list–then open Alexandria Pavels and look at her info page………..
Posted on April 12th, 2010 at 2:40 pm
i think that everything that zynga do will be for the better because it is a social game and so if you do give free foals and stuff then your frends will help u

A Farmville poem by Rhonda Black (Blondster104)
Biggest Fan
Farmville, Farmville,
Hear my pleas.
Farmville, Farmville,
I implore you please.
I really need a bigger farm.
Got no room for another barn.
Sold lots of animals to make some room.
Looked real good but got full to soon.
Got no room for all I need.
Got no room to sow my seeds.
Got no room to rake my leaves.
Guess I’ll have to sell my trees.
Farmville, You know
that I’m your biggest fan.
Come on Farmville
and please give me some land!

Regarding the Nursery Barns for allowing foals/calves to grow up…I’m extremely upset and angry about this development…Zynga take note….
I have spent hundreds of FV cash like many other people to have unique and different items and animals on my farm…and have happily given lovely calves and foals away daily to friends and neighbours…I am extremely sociable!!!
However, I am not happy about the fact that these lovely horses/cows I paid a lot of money for believing them to be limited items are going to be able to be common animals that freeloading neighbours have got for nothing…I doubt Zynga will charge them what I paid to allow them to grow to adulthood afterall if they didn’t pay for them what they charged in the marketplace in the 1st place why pay for them now? Think about the white stallion and brown pony that a lot of us had to open various mystery boxes in order to get…this is not cool to now find out that someone can get them through building a sodding nursery barn and maybe paying a bit of FV cash!!!!
Zynga is hitting and upsetting the very people who keep them in business paying large amounts of FV cash for these RARER items only for them to become common place…there is a group already started on facebook full of avid farmville farmers who have paid a lot of money into the game and Zynga’s pockets who are going to revolt against this and buying FV cash in the future…if you agree find us on facebook under…
FARMVILLE COMPENSATION FOR FV CASH SPENT ON SOON TO BE NON RARE COWS/HORSES

PLEASE Zynga give us awesome stuff that costs COINS!!!! even if it’s very expensive…. many people like me are stopped at level 70, just sitting on millions of coins with nothing to do but stack chips!!! I can buy a butt load of villas but I want something worth buying! WTF!!!! reward us players for getting this far!!!
Posted on April 15th, 2010 at 4:59 am
@ PEOPLE INTERESTED IN THE NURSERY BARN……… She said be ready to build one so my guess would be it will be coins or free like the stable itself….. but however there will be a crap bit where we have to wait a period of say 2 -3 weeks before the transformation is done…. Also we will be free gifting each other the gifts to build our nursery barns………. FV gets a little easy to guess these days and if it is visa versa….. if it cost farmcash, it will not take long for the transformation of the foals and calves to take long……. also i think not just everyone should be able to get these because people that work hard like me to get these foals who spent lots of farmcash on horses i have every type…. now others will just be able to get a foal and transform it and they get it easy and white foals shouldnt transform into stallions because then all of the farmville foal creaters lose their specialty of the valentines mystery box Limited Edition white stallon wich is a permanent stallion…. and we will lose our specialty of being a provider for our neighbors and trust me ITS FUN!!
Posted on April 15th, 2010 at 10:45 pm
Have you seen the SIZE of that thing? The nursery barn is HUGE. Even bigger than the stable. If you don’t give us more land, where are we going to put it?
Posted on April 15th, 2010 at 11:05 pm
I am not happy about the nursery barn either.
From the start I pleaded for babies born to rare animals to be twins so the owner could keep one and one could be adopted out, but my pleas fell on deaf ears. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to share with my friends, rather I wanted to share in the benefits of my purchase as well. To breed a rare animal you have to shove it into a box where it can’t be seen and then you don’t get the benefit from it being in there. That just isn’t fair. We paid for the item, we should benefit from it as well.
You talk about greed. It is not greed to want to have the benefit of something you have paid for. Greed is that person that doesn’t spend their own money but is happy to benefit from the hard earned money of others. Greed is continually wanting something for nothing.
Maybe FV should reimburse in FVC the price of an adult for every rare baby we breed?
