I'm fortunate that my FL has evolved (and still does) to a point where there are players who help me when they can, players who need my help getting ramped up and those in-between. Sometimes I do send out in bulk a fixer -usually in between events - just to add one to your inventory. Often it is the ones that multiple friends are requesting. Maybe certain rooms that cost more are played less and therefore specific fixers end up being more of help than others. It's all just guesswork and trying to help. The complaints I am seeing on the board - many of them veiled - are what makes me angry and call out some of these posters. I wondering if they post intentionally trying to stir up drama and/or players who don't like TT so are setting TT arson fires to draw attention. Like Chase, I enjoyed this Wikia site when it was all about help and not the abundance of nit-picky selfish posts. You MUST do this to be my friend (I am not referring to Lee's recent post but the flurry of "you are exactly the type of friend I want" type of posts. Because other friends are dirt. How difficult is it to understand many people do not play device games daily??  How difficult is it to understand this game has many facets so the simple casual player mind not invest time to understand all of the things they can do with it? Why do all your friends have to be the ones who play, gift, and visit every day?

As most of you know I prefer to have fun with SN when I am on and sometimes my mood will bring up a song or silly something. TT allows for goofiness and makes a dull chore easier and dull inbox a bit of a puzzle to put the pieces together. If it makes someone smile or spew coffee it is another reason to play. I guess despite my level I am not a serious enough player and therefore I do not take on any of these new players who are coming across as greedy to me.. My mind sees many of them as 15-30 yr old me-centric players. Of course, I want them to have a FL to help them and empathize with FLs that have no interaction, but would prefer "kinder" posts that they are looking for friends who might play a bit more often. Not you must do this in order to be my friend. We all have our criteria for when we make a cut. I've had some difficult choices there even with a few Wikia friends. Helping the beginners and weekenders is boring and not necessarily fun. It can seem one-sided but in the end one can hit the X- no need to complain about them constantly. Just my own take. You all do what is right for your games but I don't think it is realistic to have a FL with all active daily players. Whatever.
