Would there be a possibility to list the users about to be removed from your friend list when selecting the Auto-Purge Friends button?

The reason I ask is occasionally people go on vacation or away from the game for an extended time, but I don't want to remove them from my friend list. I am expecting them to return.

Hi Nick

The Thanksgiving Parade is really fun to watch, but we can only see it once.

It would be great if the NPC in the commons would give us the option of repeating it if we want to watch it again.

Nick ... Just wondering if you could give players a warning that their runes are maxed out(200) when turning in the Thanksgiving Rune Quest. If Players are maxed out, they don't get the Rune that they crafted, losing out on their quest reward. I think it may also affect the Easter Rune quest.

*Derringer in the Spring Thicket will give you a warning if you have reached your limit of 200 unsocketed runes, so I thought you would be able to do the same with the Easter and Thanksgiving Rune quests.
Thanks

This would be nice! I'll note it down to consider for a future update.

1) I'm pretty sure you and your pet get XP for the bushes whacked using Friend Whack.

2) We'll look into adding more merchandise for the Amicus merchants who didn't get any in the last update. Any suggestions?

3) I wish this was easy, but I'm not sure it's technically feasible to add customizable shoes at the moment. It's one of those things that sounds straightforward until you look at the implementation.

This has been suggested before. I've got it noted down to consider for the next Thanksgiving event!

Very good point, Flybaby! I'll note this down for the next Easter and Thanksgiving events.

Hi Nick, Russ,
No xp has ever been given for friend whacks either to the Bushwhacker or their pet. I have learned to work with that!

my granddaughter is adding floors to the skyscraper. The ! over the blacksmith stays even after accepting the quest for clay. He is sitting at a table in the commons

I would love a Chanukah dreidl that can be rotated for each of its 4 letters; and plate of potato latkes to serve to guests at my ranch!

Ah, Eliz is right. I imagine Justin intended Friend Whacks to only help with progress and item collection, not experience then.

Do you mean Brock the Mason, who you give Clay for Bricks? I checked his script and his exclamation mark should go away after accepting his "Brick Building" quest.

He does have a quest related to Thanksgiving, so it's possible your granddaughter hasn't accepted that one?

These would be great! I'll note them down for Georgia to consider.
