Are there any plans to open the new forum or move forward with this game? Another 10,000 monthly users lost in the last few days. If something doesn’t happen, and SOON (like today or tomorrow) you will be losing many more. A little communication is necessary in any relationship. At least open the new forum and give us some info.

Hi Linda!
Unfortunately, I don’t have any updates on the game’s status. We are in the process of transitioning developers and creating a whole new back-end. So, until the new developers are familiar with the project, everything is at a stand still. Additionally, I am waiting for our engineering team to dissolve the old forum before activating the new one.

wow… well that’s pretty sad.. I was just getting into the game and really enjoying it, and finally collecting enough neighbors to make the game work. Sighs. I was hoping this game would be as challenging and fun as it looked. Disappointed if it fails.

Sorry Travis I’m tired of waiting!
