Anyone play Farmville?

Sign in to disble this ad
My daughter is hooked on the game farmville in Facebook. We've figured out that you earn coins by plowing and harvesting the land, and you gain experience by the amount of times you do this, but how do you earn FV's? (dollars?) It seems she's had 3 fv for an eternity and I can't figure it out. Help me look like a hero to my kids once again

No, Farmville is the devil. I'm really sure of it. It has sucked so many of my friends in and has not ever let them out.

You'll get one when you level up, or get a ribbon or earn a level of crop mastery. They're given with in-game achievements.

I'm a FarmTown widower... I'm sure Farmville will lead to the destruction of your family life as well. You may want to put your call into the local exorcist as soon as possible.

Farmville and all the other "apps" on facebook and myspace and the like are used to farm data from its users. There was a post up on either gizmodo or comsumerist about it a few weeks ago. If I run across it I'll post the link.

I spend too much time playing Mafia Wars to even think about Farmville.

i'd be curious to see what info they gather. I guess George Orwell was right.

I got sick of people posting photos of their crappy farms. So I made one and wrote two explicit words with strawberrys. Now the words are just in dirt.
