We don't have any indicator showing there may be more requests waiting. After clicking "Accept All," requests, we see a blank page that says "no requests," even though we may have actually have another 100 or more waiting. The only way to see if we have more requests is to close the window and click on the pink request icon to re-open it. I wonder how many players think they've accepted all their requests and never go back to look for more. Could you please add an arrow or something to indicate there is a 2nd or 3rd page of requests? Right now, the only way to truly know the "exact" number of requests we have waiting (over 100) is to view it on our browser profile page, which a lot of players don't visit often. Thanks.

Right now I am raising a Feathered Phoenix, a real beauty, but I have missed fishing up items because it blocks the hole. It's hard to pick up spawning items in the fields too. I have to navigate around the flapping bird. We are able to dismount but still keep mount attributes. It would be great to do that with our pets, too... only for those times when they hinder us!

482 Posts	Link to post - Posted February 16th 2022 at 2:03 PM WhackedCrafter @Flybaby... I thought that, also, but not true because some have no crops or their crops are fine.

Thank you. At this time, all I can do is hide your name from the leaderboard, which I've done for you. Anyone else interested in having their name hidden from the ranking please submit a support ticket.

I wasn't aware of this! I'll add this to the bug list and look into it when I can.

I've noted it down and will look into it when I have some time, thanks!

It's something I've been meaning to bring back, like how I did the 2021 streaming survey using Google Forms. I'm still catching up on content, but I may try one for the next Quality of Life update, in order to see if my priorities align with the community's, and to get any suggestions from less vocal players.
1839 Posts	Link to post - Posted February 16th 2022 at 2:22 PM Flybaby Just curious about the swapping of Burl and Faun partners. I know you can't do the gift of love at the same time, but if you accept the Burl/Faun quests, does this reset the cooldown for the gift of love, ie do we have to wait another week for it to come up again? A few players on chat have been asking about this.

However there's an additional requirement that you have helps available to give, which may explain why you're not always seeing it, WhackedCrafter.
482 Posts	Link to post - Posted February 16th 2022 at 2:26 PM WhackedCrafter Nope, not correct. They are there no matter if I have available help to offer or not. And like I said, they will be on players that have no crops or if have crops their crops are fine.
482 Posts	Link to post - Posted February 16th 2022 at 2:27 PM WhackedCrafter It isn't a big deal, just have wondered all these years.Guess will still wonder why.
52 Posts	Link to post - Posted February 16th 2022 at 2:31 PM Eliz hmmm... whacked.... the yellow ! is supposed to only be on buddies who have crops planted. If they have a yellow ! and no crops, then you should send a ticket. I would like to see a brown ! for friends with withered crops
