Visiting is a touchy subject. There is no doubt about it taking time. There is no doubt about the random CIs being a great reason to do it, especially since it sometimes delivers those quality hard-to-get collection pieces. If one is playing on any past SN version they cannot Visit, not their choice, but can be good friends in other ways as LuvG suggests. So Visiting is not really something I deem mandatory but just another indicator I might look at if deciding to cut a username from my game. I know I am opposite to many here, but I feel the player who 1) ONLY Visits, 2) puts up WL items, and 3) readily takes my gifts and access keys is more than likely a self-absorbed player. That said, it is a game. And at the other end of the username is a stranger, a bot, a play-for-hire, a largely unattended second/third/fourth game, etc.... Thank goodness there are those usernames who choose to be "friends", too. So I guess my definition of game friend is the one who interacts in some way. My own limit for yesterday was being intollerant of yet another ball of string in light of the player being Level 90 AND having a game on the leader board where she was highly positioned. They say the climb to the top can be lonely. But she has herself to play with.
