ok im not good at this but here goes anyway
adding neighbours in the factory for promotion to add a neighbour to get a higher promotion u need to add a total now of 200 brand new players that except your invitation to play the game this is of course when u are a total beginer now im sorry but my self i add people who play the game and now apparently this dont coun5t to being a neighbour tbh i think this system totaly sucks and yes i have asked bvg and that was there reply i also told them that it sucks what do you guys think

I believe this is something everyone's hoping will change soon enough... The factory needs something new!

I'd also put this under "General Discussions" for more replys

thanks for that but they told my in email thats how it is and i put in gemral ty

This is a very old feature. Back in the day all games had where you needed to ask friends for stuff. Maybe that was just Zynga. 50 used to be Max but people probably said , I have way more than 50, neighbors reward me for that. And it so it got updated to 200. That was a long time ago. This whole feature was Just made to get more people playing. This the factory system does suck I guess. Big Viking games gave the option to give your in game buddies free gifts and not just facebook friends so that it wouldn't suck.
