Due to customer feedback, TeamLava has decided to revert the changes made to the quantities and prices of contracts/recipes in Bakery Story, Fashion Story and Restaurant Story. We are very appreciative of the customer feedback in both emails to Support and, naturally, posts in the forums to help us make this decision. Please let us know if you have further thoughts/feedback on these changes in the thread below.
Yay!!!!
Thank you very much:D!
Thank you GM. This is great news.
What do we need to do to get Android parity?
Cool :) i think many people are very happy now
Yay!!!!!!!! My hubby and kids will be happy
Thanks so much! This is awesome. :)
We appreciate it lots.

Yeah, it's great that this change was reverted as it should have never been done to begin with but it's funny..
TL goes and "fixes" things that aren't broken, the prechecked neighbors and the quantity/price change, only to backpedal and realize it was a terrible idea.
Yet.. the problems that we have always had like gem traps and now more pervasive ads remain unaddressed and only get worse :p
But thanks for reverting it I guess. Could have just asked us if it was a good idea or not lol.
Thank you for listening.
While this issue didn't affect me personally, I understand why people were upset and I think it's awesome that TL listened to the overwhelming feedback.
Now what about dem confirmation buttons?
Haha
Thanks TL! Im so happy :D
Thanks for the update GM, and thank you TL for listening and making the changes.
Thank you soooo much :-). I guess there is strength in numbers and my troubled waters are calm.
I don't know about anyone else but it was torture to not check my game yesterday... the 5 star rating has been restored.
Thanks teamlava I say as a way to thanks them we buy some gems atleast 5 dollars
Yes Thank you Teamlava!!! Now I can continue to play again!
Yessss!! We are finally heard! Strength through numbers for the win! Thanks Teamlava! Happy customer right here!
Let's see if I can do the snoopy dance AND play BS! Thank you so much TL!!
Honestly, thank you. You make it easier to not lose faith in you when you listen. I hope TL learns from this one. We're hoping you [TL] do. It's important to keep in mind that without us, there is no you. In life, for anything to be created, someone has to build the materials, ingredients, etc. Maybe now is the time to start looking into customer surveys. Help us help you. Tell us your ideas, hear our pros and cons about it, and make your decisions based on 50% feedback 50% business. It would help you a lot more if you talked to us more, the blog isn't interactive the way the forum is. We know someone out there had to lower the numbers in the games. Someone had to push the changes to the games. Someone had to do some programming to make it possible. Look at things now, kind of a waste of time, wouldn't you say? In the end, it all had to be changed back to normal. Time wasted, time that could of been used towards your next idea had you just involved us in it first. It's not that as a company/business you have no right to do what you want. It's just that you do it in a manner that makes us feel unimportant, never thought of, makes you look greedy even.Quote:

Thank you! I hope you also would be implementing other improtant features soon (i.e. gem purchase confirmation button and Android parity)
seriously....thanks a lot. this will only help in the long run. people will spend money on/in games when they feel connected to the game. this helps.

Please, now, listen to your customers about the gem issues. Whether you purposely place "gem-spending" buttons hoping they will be tapped accidentally or not, I have no idea. But, it is definitely too easy to mistap and lose gems. For this reason, I will not purchase gems because I am too afraid to lose my real money. I have already lost most of the gems that I have earned in the games by mistake. If a second tap was always required to confirm any gem purchase, I would probably budget $50-100 per month to spend on gems! We tap two, three, and four times on everything else!! We won't mind an extra tap when we spend gems.
If you would do this, your company would gain so much more respect, both from current players and new players. You will also probably earn more $$ in the long run because you will earn more loyal customers who can enjoy buying gems without the threat of easy loss. Right now, this practice just makes your company seem sleazy and greedy. I'm sure that is not the re****tion you truly want. If you are not blatantly and purposefully trying to trick players out of their expensive and/or hard-earned gems, then this aspect of the game is poorly designed to the point that it will disappoint and turn away many prospective players. I doubt that is the case though, because the rest of the game is designed so well. Therefore, whether true or not, it seems the obvious conclusion is you are purposefully trying to make players lose as many gems as possible, in any way possible. I seriously hope this is not the case, and that everyone is wrong about this. If you are doing it on purpose, it makes me think that you are simply trying to ride the popularity wave, "get" as much money as possible now before the wave subsides, and then either go out of business, stop building and supporting the games, or simply disappear all of a sudden...and that would be a tragedy since you really have created some wonderful games and gaming platforms.
So for now, I will enjoy your game for free, and will not be paying you anything for all your hard work; just enjoying the fruits of your labor. I would much prefer to buy gems and support your company, because the games are wonderful. But I am afraid they will be stolen, so I refuse to buy them. You won't get a dollar out of me with your current practice. You would probably get $600-$1200 a year if you implemented confirm buttons on all gem purchases.
Just my 2 cents. Thank you for reading.
