[Admin]

Bumping to top after moving some threads over

[Lauri]

[Lynda Edwards]

thanks for all the great info

[April]

:laugh:

[Janey]

Yippeeeeee!! I'm in, I love these kind of forums, they are easy to navigage (and easiser to moderate I beleive)

Happy Christmas everyone and especially to the mods and Michael :laugh:

[Wakey]

oh goodness. ive never used this kind of forum before so hope im posting this right. i dont get the 'friends' thing. do we have to approve friends or are the friends we have from facebook automatically our friends here too. does that make sense?

They are separate atleast atm. I could probably link it to facebooks friends BUT that would have added a month onto the setup and test stage :)

Its maybe a change I will make later though

[matty]

Hic / Burp - Sorry too much Yam Brandy

Thanks Wakey, I think it will be good if I can ever work out the navigation of the new sparkly forum..

Keep them wellies wet - Enjoy the farming and I hope the new system will be more managable..

Merry Xmas, Christmas, Solstice or whatever else you like to call it...

May your god go with you !!!

I'd like to thank you, Simon, for all your hard work to set this forum up. The myFarm experience is getting better all the time!

Help April.. I think I'm lost in this.
Robin Rozenboom.

[Mia]

Looks great! Thanks!

[Gia McElroy]

I feel like a colt trying to find its legs...but I am sure I will catch on at this...I hope??!! Oh...and I am glad you explained why I was a dirt scratcher! I was so insulted...lol...lol...!

[Ricard]

Thanks for all the updates, have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

[Caro]

Wow.... doesnt this look fantastic.... have never used this kind of forum before but live and learn! Is there going to be a farmaholics thread??? found that to be great entertainment and very informative.....:biggrin:

[Mark D'Haen]

My guess would be "Daco-Romanian "

[kittylicious]

Great job guys. Love the new forum, so easy to navigate. Merry Christmas all!!!:cute:

[ShookAcres]

Thank You this is much easier! Great Work You Are Doing!:smile:

[Julieann Moore]

[lynz]

Wow ok Santa has been busy( dont tell King Michael). Now I have to use my brain to get around this place. Looks really good. Great work. xx
:baffled:

[elfanie]

Just had to give the new boards a quick try...

it's a little disorienting how different it is :girl_wacko: ..and it doesn't FEEL like myFarm because of the new graphics and that it's not on facebook anymore...but I'm sure I will get used to it...
:dance3:

[Dragonlady]

Oh goodness me - something new to get my head around! Way too much alco in the system to be sure I am getting it right! Simon, I am sure I know your face!!!???? Very worrying as I can't place where from! Well done (I think) with the upgrades, hope you have stopped now and are enjoying your hols :yes4:

[eileenbw]

awesome game!! :)

[Stewarts#1girl]

WOW.. this is a wake up call. I thought I was good enough with computers but this may have me stumpped. Gald for all of those who rolled right into it. Lucky ducks!! If you don't see me around, I'm still trying to figure it out. Hopefully this will post and then I know I'm almost there.

[Marianne]

Much better than the facebook forum, even if it takes some getting used to for some folks, there is so much more functionality. Good move, imho.
Thanks for all the hard work, guys!

[ShaLynn]

I'm trying to figure my way around here...but I think I will get the hang of things. I like the new forums and the logging in and out is a bit of a pain...but I can deal with that too. But I don't really care to be refered to as a "Dirt Scratcher". I have been farming since the app began and have 3 farms at just about or over 1,000,000. And my main farm at 2,000,000. I am hardly a "Dirt Scratcher" and I think that calling me one is kind of rude.

[perryl]

WOW! I'm in...

Just like a fan club message board :dance3:

It'll take some getting used to but once you do...it's very easy to navigate around!

Thanks guys...

Hope everyone have a very Merry Happy Whatever :biggrin:

[ketchmydrift]

Wow, I love it, although it will take a while to get used to. Thanks everyone!

They aren't rankings linked to your farm. The forums have a default feature of user titles, titles which as a user you rise as you reach certain post numbers. The default ones are pretty basic and hardly farm like so we asked for suggestions for a good set of 'hierarchical' titles to use that. So don't take it as a 'diss' as its no reflexion of your myFarm abilities, its just a fun way to represent your rise up the forum hierarchy

[Jenbear]

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all from DOWNUNDER, I am not used to these forums either, but am sure I will catch on, thanks for all the hard work

[Stephy]

Thanks for the new forums, Simon. It is going to take some getting used to, but I can tell already it will be a ton better than the other once I get used to it. Happy Holidays!!!!!

[George Eller]

I like the new forum. It is identical in format to the WW2inColor forum where I am a moderator.

It should be great for the mods here.

[delores]

Great forum
Maybe I will learn it by the new year you all do a great job with the farm thanks for the game

[Meg]

Excellent format! Lovelovelove those pirate smileys! :wink:

[kiminbend]

Agree...nice...will take a bit of getting used to...Happy New Year Farmers!

[lolapalooza2647]

This is super!! Thanks for all you guys do!

[Penny]

I want to thank you all for your dedication to the farming community. This new forum and the timing of it's arrival is the proof. So, "here's to ya" and looking forward to the new year and great things to come on MyFarm. Cheers Michael, Simon and all agricultural advisors!!

[nmrisch]

Loving the new forums. Quick question though...did all the mock-up graphics transfer over? I was looking for the design pics of the other farm houses and can't find it anywhere. I know I saw it in a post on the other forum somewhere...:cool:

[Jen / momof2greatcats]

Excellent Game, Excellent Forum.

regards,
-Thoreau (I just want to plant beans!)
Add me to the "I LOVE the vBulletin" format and I LOVE FARMING!!

You all are the BEST. What a great Christmas gift.

Thanks man! This is been so easy to navigate and love these kinds of forums! :cool:

[zhaime]

nice:cute:

[mob]

I don't think I like the new forum...but change does take some time to get used to. I really don't care...I just want some PIGS!!!

[blisscodisco]

Happy New Year! I love the new forum but I am partial as it is the same set up as a rottweiler forum I belong to so it is familiar to me. I can see where it can be strange to some at first. Happy farming everyone!

[tiggerypum]

Can you explain the format expected for our 'facebook id' in our profiles?
The number? A link to our profile page?

[tiggerypum]

Oy!!! something is very wrong!!
When I looked at my profile page, I saw my facebook photo, very nice.
But whose baby is that? That's not me or my facebook photo at all.

And now it's changed again? Is it delivering me some random facebook picture each time I load the page? CREEPY.

[tiggerypum]

hmm, it didn't change when I edited the post above. Posting again to see if I see yet another picture as my photo...

[tiggerypum]

Uploading 3 screenshots showing what I just saw.

I missed the baby photo, when I posted the response it changed into the xmas pic, and then it changed to some guy, and I expect it will change again with this post :S

Note that my profile is correct. :baffled:

I am using facebook connect, firefox 2.0.0.20, mac os 10.3.9

Edit:
And yes, I changed again, at least this time I'm female, but it's very disturbing. Are you seeing a picture of someone that doesn't match my profile below??

[Alexandra]

New here and it will take a bit of getting used to the forum format. Just going through it to see new updates as that is what I usually did through FB.

I know of the bug, whats causing it I am not yet sure

[Maggie]

the new forum looks great - glad to see it online ;-)

[tiggerypum]

I came back to check on things, and I posted in another spot, and I was 'me' and got my proper avatar/graphic, and it seems to be sticking. On the other hand, the ones above in this thread changed again, and I get creeped out every time, lol. In our virtual world these little pictures are sort of who we are, and I get twitchy seeing someone else's face with my picture. Now to see what happens this time. I hope it's fixed somehow :D :D :D

Edit: Oy, at least in this thread I seem to have the amazing morphing avatar pic. Creepy! Oh well. I hope it stays stable on the rest of the site.

I was looking at the images and on the trees there was an apple that matured and then there was a dead tree. Will our trees ever die?

At this point in the game, NO. Your trees will not die, but eventually, they might. Keep checking back in the news section for updates.

[Nadz]

I was in Canada for my hols when I logged on to the community, and saw this excellent forum. So, a new year, a new forum... well done to all involved! :happy:

It's a familiar format for me, seeing as I'm on a footie forum just like this one, so this is going to be fuuuuun!

[Diane Birmingham]

Great! I new so can anyone steer me to where I can find info re: servers.

Thanks!
