Request of items

How do I request an item from my neighbors

From your quest book, click on the items requested. Then select the neighbors you want to request. Basically take them all.

That depends on how many neighbors you have. Very recently, they changed the rules on us without notice. Now you can only SEND 20 requests per day. You used to be able to send to all your neighbors and they would all go out, but the number of returns a day was capped at 20. Which makes sense.

They changed it. without notice.

The change means, if you have 250 neighbors (like I do), and click them all, it will only send to a random 20 of the 250. Then the next day, another random 20 from the full list you clicked the first day. And so no. Then, presumably, fully 2 weeks later, once it's made it's way through your list, you can try again sending to only the 20 people you think most likely to respond. How the game makers think we have time to take a detailed search of all 250 neighbors' kingdoms in order to determine who the 20 most active are is beyond me. This change is positively LUDICROUS.

This is the quote in the bugs and issues section by a Storm8 staff member:

If you send your requests to over 20 neighbors, there is a chance that it will randomly select an inactive neighbor who wouldn't see your request. We usually suggest to send your 20 requests per day to neighbors that you know are more active. Hope this tip helps in getting more Unique Oil from your neighbors! :) Good luck!

I asked when and why they changed it and if they realize how screwed up it is and have gotten no response yet. My issue is still marked "answered" despite my questions.

Your quest book is the book icon on the top left of your screen. It contains a list of all your currently active quests. Just tap the book, then tap a quest on your list to see what you need to do to finish that quest. If part of that quest is to "Ask friends" for something, there will be a green "Ask" button next to it. Tap that, then tap the 20 people on that list you think are most likely to be active and return what you ask for. Note that your neighbors do not lose anything by giving you waht you ask them for. So they are always happy to be able to help with these quests. If they are active. If you don't have 20 neighbors yet, try looking at the Add Me thread to add more. And feel free to add me: zenobia42 :)

Thank u so much, I understand now
