I've grown so disgusted with Playdom that it's difficult to play Gardens of Time with the same feeling of joy that I once did. It seems they've done everything to alienate their long time players for it's absolutely impossible to meet the reputation values and open new chapters, no matter how cleverly the garden is built. Plus there are the endless popups, the ancillary games that just annoy me such as that workshop, and that stamp thing, which I have no clue how to do. They just block the garden, which was the whole point. Now it seems they do everything to snake gold away from players. If you want to open chapters pay for it. If you do the crystal chapters, they always withhold one item from that treasure chest thing so you can't complete the challenge unless you pay gold for the item. I have refused to do so because I don't like being manipulated and cheated. It's sad that something I enjoyed so much and put so much effort into has devolved into a source of aggravation rather than pleasure. Every time I open the game, I think why am I bothering.

this new valentine chapter was a disaster! My browser in the game didn't work for 3 days! I was stuck in limbo since I couldn't request anything. I have not received 1 crystal from my posts since the game began. As much as I love playing the game, daily, I may just delete it. It's almost too much aggravation to continue with all the bugs in it.

i joined 2 weeks after release. i love the game. and i enjoy the crystal games too. but WHAT you did to the wedding game is wrong. you said get more neighbors. so i did. i now have 236. it does make the game more fun, but it also makes it impossible to send crystals to my friends. you got us to act more like friends then turn around and limit our ability to help them get crystals. if each person only gets 12 total per day, i guess thats ok. but HOW do i possibly keep track of who i tried to send to with a limit of 6 clicks per 24 hours? its impossible with that many neighbors.. you need to open it back up where we can try to send, even if its no, until we run out of requests. also the upgrading requests are not working. i keep asking and get maybe 5 back total. from 236? even if there are only 230 sending back. where did the rest go?. please fix that. or i will just stop trying to upgrade and that's some of the fun. please fix all the glitches so its fun to play again. thanks

I find this a lot of boehoe , there is so much more going on in the world then a game. I personally enjoy playing the game and socializing once in a while. Yes sometimes i get annoyed with the flashing arrows and so many pop ups but I can live with it. Like I said there are so many more worse events in the world .

i.e., A local favorite, or highly recommended and many other players are operating a 24 hour boycott of this game in protest to the shoddy customer service, the continual problems with the game, the greed displayed in the methods and pricing of items in this game, the missing gold problem that has not been resolved for months, and the lack of any higher level than 90 to achieve, this has also been going on for months. Many are spending the day writing reviews on websites and newspapers, as well as trying out new games that do not belong to Playdom. Many of my neighbors have quit the game or on the brink of doing so. The crystal chapters are the last straw. This is supposed to be a fun game, a relief from daily stresses, instead it adds to them. The game has wonderful potential, but at the moment whoever is running the show is in danger of killing the goose that laid the golden egg. Jenny Kent-Payne Robin J. Finamore

PLAYDOM MAKE IT TO EASY TO LOOSE GOLD BARS. I AM ON LEVEL 83 AND HAVE ONLY 2 GOLD BARS. MOST OF THE REST OF THE GOLD WAS LOST BY PUSHING A WRONG BUTTON OR SOMETHING ELSE. BEFORE YOU USE GOLD IT SHOULD ASK IF YOU REALLY WANT TO DO THE TRANSACTION. I FIRST THOUGH THE GAME STOLE THE GOLD BUT IT JUST MAKES IT TO EASY TO LOOSE IT.

There customer srvice sucks.
