How come no way to earn diamond?

There should be ways to earn diamonds instead of purchasing them.

Totally agree. I think this is going to spoil this game for many people.
Please allow us earn gems or exchange our coins for them!!!

Corgi = 55 Gems = $10+ !!! Are you kidding me ????!!!!

I totally agree with the previous statements. If the game is free then why do we have to pay for gems?? I would rather pay for a game and then earn the gems with my s**** at the game. I understand people have to make money with the products they invent and this is a nice game but a downer that you have to pay instead of earning gems by your competence in the game. I suggest some other form of you guys collecting the money: sell the game instead!

What people have to understand is that you pay for diamonds to help the game makers to upkeep there servers and powerbills ect its your way to support the game makers to say thanks to them.

This is why the option to buy is how it is

Although I can agree with everyone feed back here, especially about team lava being able to afford for keeping up the servers and updates, I still can't comprehend why we can't earn diamonds in the game without paying for them Alot of individuals downloaded this game for free, and expect the dynamics and play to be free as well. I would pay for this game, but I would expect a method for gamers to receive gems through farming s****s, or perhaps and option to clear away the farm in order to dig up gems. A costly and time consuming option such as that the gamer cannot farm on that piece of tile/tiles (land) for quite awhile as a penalty, will require the gamer to properly fill the hole, and then have to wait another period because the soil is unsuitable to farm on and will require the gamer to purchase costly manure to be able to farm on that tile/ tiles again.just an idea. By the way add me. Chief Mallow

Yeah, I agree that there should be another way to get diamonds.

It's just like the stupid pool hall we have here in town. I really enjoy going down there and playing pool, but they charge me for every hour that I use the table. I mean, I'm ok with them trying to make money from the people that want to pay to play pool, but for those of us who are really good at the game should be able to pay off the use of the facility by doing something in the game.

For example, I really don't like playing cutthroat nearly as much as 8-ball or 9-ball. So, maybe, if players agree to play 3+ hours of cutthroat a week, then the rest of the time they spend there should be free. It wouldn't be nearly as fun as the other games, so most people wouldn't do it. They would continue to pay the normal way, but for those of us who want to play for free, it would allow us to do so.

It's just a cheap tactic, in my opinion. By charging money, it means that only some people get to play. It really should be based on s**** instead.

What??!!? Gems cost money. Plain and simple. You can earn them by downloading other free games. Since the beginning, it's been clear their intent is to make money through selling gems. I have never, nor will I, pay for gems and I still play the game and am quite successful at it.

The pool hall analogy could be one of the dumbest I have ever heard. How do you think they pay for the tables, upkeep, salaries, etc.? That's like saying you should get to use a public swimming pool for free if you agree to stay off the high dive or go to a movie for free if you buy snacks or sit in the back! Go buy your own pool table if you want to play for free and dictate all the games you want to play.

You failed to get the joke. My whole post was tongue-in-cheek.

You would have got 10 gems when you first downloaded the game.

I agree that the price of gems is too high, but I currently have 62 gems, and have not purchased any ever (and never will). I got them all through the offers to download games for gems. I would have even more, except of course I've spent (and accidentally lost) some gems. So you can definitely get gems that way.
