{FAQ} Green Meadow - Neighbors

[cbroo1]

The Green Meadow

* What is the Green Meadow

It's an Extra land unlocked at level 17+
or earlier for 100 BBs in the Shopping Center with the item called "silver key":

* Where can I find the Green Meadow?

You'll find the Green Meadow on the Farm Map:

If it has a lock on it, it's because you have not yet unlocked this land.

* What can I do on the Green Meadow?

You can grow:

• crops,
• trees,
• animal stables,
• Pastures,
• Production Pens,
• and all sorts of decorative items.

All the items in your inventory (tabs to the left of your farm) are also available in the Green Meadow.

* OK, I just got it unlocked: Why are there so many weeds and stones?

When you first unlock the meadow, only a few spaces are available to use.

Progressively, by adding some neighbours, your land will automatically clear up!

As shown on this animated picture, 12 neighbours are required to fully clear the meadow.

* Apart from neighbours clearing the land, what other advantages are there to having several neighbours?

• Neighbours can send you gifts.

  You can send them gifts too.
  Just click on their avatar, then on the gift icon, and select a gift to send.

If you receive a gift from someone who is not one of your neighbours,

• it could be from a buddy/friend.
  To return a gift from a buddy/friend, you can do so from the Post Office "Send Gift".
  • firstly select the gift that you want to send
  • then select the neighbour/friend/buddy that you want to send the gift to, and validate.

• it could also be a gift from someone who has just sent you an ingame message (in the near or faraway past).
• it could also be from a farmer who has just sent you a neighbour request, that you may have, or may not yet have, received.
• and finally, it could also be from a neighbour/friend/buddy who has just changed his Farm Username.

• When your neighbours level up, you'll get an EP bonus.

  When your neighbour levels up, you'll see a small yellow star appear next to their avatar

As soon as you've clicked on your neighbour's avatar, then on this icon:

you'll see a bubble float up showing the EPs that you have received.

The bonus EP that you receive when you congratulate your neighbors for leveling up is calculated by your level in relation to the level of your neighbour.

• Neighbours can write ingame messages to each other

  By clicking on your neighbour's avatar, then on this icon:

It will open up the Post-Office pop-up, from where you can write an ingame message, or send a Suzy Air Mail

* How many neighbours can I have?

You have space for a maximum of 18 neighbors (17 plus yourself).
You can recognise your own tab: it's the blue-tab, showing the same Avatar/Crest as the one next to your Farmhouse. (see also {FAQ} Crest Creator)

* How can I get more than 18 neighbours?

• Premium Farmers can have six more neighbours
  -> See: {FAQ} Premium Membership
• There is also a Neigbhour Rune on the Skill Tree / Tree of Wisdom that will give an additional six neighbours.
  -> See: {FAQ} SkillTree Runes

* How do I add new neighbours?

This post (below) will show you how to add neighbours: Adding Neighbours.

* Where do I find new neighbours to add?

There is a Daily Thread for neighbour requests, you'll find lots of people there also looking for neighbours.

Please note
you are only allowed to "reply" to the Daily Thread,
you cannot open a new thread in the Neighbours Forum.

* What are the small green/red lights next to each neighbour?

These indicate whether your neighbour is logged into their farm.

• Green = logged in
• Red = logged out

* What is the Yellow Star on my closed neighbours tab?

This indicates that one of your neighbours have levelled up.
Check through your lists page-by-page until you find the neighbour who has a yellow star.

By clicking on their avatar, then the 'person' icon, you'll get an EP bonus.

* Why are some of my neighbours "faded"?

This indicates that you have a neighbour invitation pending.
As long as both parties haven't 'accepted' the neighbourship, the avatar will remain 'faded'.

• If both parties agree, the "fading" will go, and leave a normal avatar
• if one party 'refuses' the neighbour, that 'pending neighbour' will vanish, leaving an available slot for another neighbour.

* Why does one of my neighbours have a flashing red thermometer?

This thermometer indicates farm activity.
When it is green, the player is active, logs in regularly and farms regularly.
If it is red, the neighbour isn't playing as regularly, and his/her thermometer, after having dropped to red, will start flashing.
Then, finally, he/she will end up dropping off your list.

* Can I delete a neighbour?

Yes. Only if they have been your neighbour for more than 7 days.
By selecting this icon:

You will be asked to validate this action.
Clicking on the checkmark will delete that neighbour from your neighbour list.
However, this will NOT remove them from your buddy-list

Note: If this neighbour was your Farmerama Wedding Partner, deleting them will only cause a Marriage Annulment. To delete them completely, you will need to delete them again as neighbour.

* Will I lose land if I lose a neighbor?

No

Once unlocked, your meadow will remain cleared of rubble even if you lose neighbours.

The 2nd icon: invite another Farmer:



Your buddy will see a pop-up on his/her farm informing them that you would like to become their neighbour.

3rd icon: Invite real-life and/or social-network friends to come and play Farmerama:

Farmerama now gives you the possibility of iniviting other real-life friends to join Farmerama.

By doing so, you'll get rewarded with a

• and a further reward, a Diamond reward, when 10 of your friends reach level 7= a chipmunk item that gives 70 EP every 8 hours, size 1x2

NOTE: You will receive these rewards, ONLY if invited friends will have registered in the game by clicking the link received in the mail from you!

On the statistics tab, you'll see the different real-life friends have accepted your invitation, or still pending, and those that have started playing, seeing also which level they have reached.

Once you've clicked on "invite a friend" you'll see this new pop-up:

4th icon: Rent-a-virtual-friend option

This Rent-a-Friend cost 15 BBs for 30 days.

Happy Neighbour hunting
