Regards neighbours I have found just recently that it is the people that have just started to play FS that do not water their nbrs farms. I have had to delete at least 5 or 6 off them this past week or so. They come onto my farm water my crops. They give me their storm id I invite them to be neighbours and that is the last time they water my crops. Never do they visit me again. I find the people that have been playing farm story for a long time are the ones that regularly water my crops. A few of my neighbours won't have 0-1 or 2 star neighbours as they know that they won't visit their farms.
Yeah, I noticed that too. I won't accept anybody under level 25 and I delete if they are under 3 stars. I've found a lot of really good neighbors by deleting the deadbeats. Now almost all of my neighbors are great! I keep it at 50 tho. I don't think I can handle more than that. I know that not everybody can water every day, but I think at least two or 3 times a week is doable.
