I would buy more yocash than what I do if the had timers on items. I noticed they hard timers on those helicopters now but they are to dang big to do anything with. I mean you put them out and they literally take up the hole room. I like them but to big.

Hi Everyone,

Timers are definitely a great idea, especially with some of the older unreleased items or collectible items that we plan on releasing in the future. We certainly plan on doing this!


PS: As of right now there should be timers up on the Helicopters that were released yesterday, so get 'em while they're hot! :D

What about those who have to wait for pay day to buy YoCash? Once in awhile having a timer would be ok.. but not too often.. then we get back to those who have and can and those who can't jump at the moment... There is plenty of room for new themes in the stores... just remove and replace the themes that are no longer available... Leaving stuff in the stores gives us time to buy as we can... not that they have to stay there forever... but flash sales ...while they can be fun...unless you can get on line or are on line all the time... items get missed... just sayin'

The only thing I can say about the payday part that everyone has different paydays so if they put timers when people get payed there still be complaing about they not got paid yet. No matter what not everyone on the forums and game gets paid all on the same day!.

BVG cant wait until everyone gets paid. One thing about getting paid you leave some money behind for abit off game fun!

I'd be satisfied if they'd just remove all the closed themes from the store...that's what, around 40??? I'd like for them to leave us something to decorate with while they get things sorted.

What other older and collectible unreleased items are there? This sounds like the Celtic Cross to me :o

Things are changing, suck it up



Timers are fine for some things... but not everyone has ready cash on hand to buy YoCash or tons of really nice things to sell in order to build up their coins in order to buy.... The "haves and the have nots" all over again...

Granted... no one gets paid the same... on the same day... but it sounds like many want timers on everything! If that happens it will backfire...

Yeah many people will complain but this how this game works not everyone can be happy. If people get paid monthly and they like spending on the game then they could save abit off money so they can spend in the middle off the month!

There's no reason to put timers on furniture or decorator items. That's the reason so many decorators left and trust me, we spend a lot more than hoarders since we ALWAYS BUYING and not hoarding to live off the coins we make from hoarding.

We decorate, we buy, we keep the rooms in tact and then buy some more.

The fact Zynga went down after releasing theme after theme only proves that it's not a good business model. Give us decorators a break or you're going to lose the rest of us and then who will the hoarders sell their million coin windows to.

I know some people don't play like this. There's maxing, gifting, pageants, debating, and a plethora of other ways people play. Yo's not just a buy, sell trade game, BUT in all fairness, why change the initial concept? .Our "community" has progressed into many facets, however, it's not like they have to forego what we've established in Yo as far as the economic platform goes. It's like learning a new game and we have no clue as to what the hecks going on.. I can't figure it out, but I don't want the buy sell players think they've abandoned this concept of rarities. I think it's a great idea to put timers on some of the items if not all. Just my two cents.


Seriously? If any group of players of this game have been crapped all over by Zynga (jury is still out on BVG) its the decorators. In the rush for more *rare* items players like this demand. :?

Actually, that is not how this game works - just how it worked for the last year or so that Z were running it and look at how steeply the numbers of players fell. It used to be a lot more fun for everyone before the focus was purely on keeping the buy/sell/hoard brigade happy - I used to enjoy it a lot more and only played in a token way when all that craziness of everything being on timers and gone in a few days was going on. BVG will need to attract different types of players to boost this game back to its prime or it will not be able to sustain itself.

I'm not here to debate, but you're entitled to ur opinion...we always buy too, no one can say who spends more, that's all subjective.

We decorate, we buy, we keep the rooms in tact and then buy some more.
same, i do the same thing and have a plethora of items stored.. :)

Again, no offense, but you're speculating as how ZYNGA went down...and then u threaten to leave....smh :roll:

We're all going to have a difference of opinion and just bc people agree with one another, doesn't make them RIGHT and that works both ways.

IF we cannot compromise, then all bets are off for a win win for everyone,. that's including BVG.
