Repeat posts -- Please read before making a new post

[u/IWantYourSkull]

Hi everyone!

In the last couple years, we have seen sizeable growth in the membership of this sub, which we're thrilled about! Unfortunately, one of the side effects of that has been a huge increase in repeat posts asking questions that have already been answered, in some cases many times

Please check the stickied post, scan the front page including the sidebar, and use reddit's built-in search function before making a new post asking a question

This game has been around for 10 years now and has a big userbase for a mobile game, so chances are your question has already been asked and answered. There's no need to make a new post asking it

Please keep in mind repeat posts and low quality posts are already against the rules. The rules aren't arbitrary. They've grown and evolved as the sub has grown, to help keep this place running smoothly and to keep it as enjoyable and informative as possible

_______________________________

Here are some of the more common ones we've seen lately with solutions (not a full list by any means, but these have all been asked and answered ad nauseum, and are annoying to regular users of the sub, based on the reports we've been getting in the modqueue):

• Game redownloading -- If you're on Android, free up some space on your device. If you're on iOS, free some space, clear the cache on safari and Spotify if you use it, and turn offload apps off. This solves this problem 99% of the time
• Righteousness rating -- It's wonky. Always has been. Buy a bunch of training walls and you won't have to worry about it
• Shattered Dreams Tokens -- These are for a mystery box that will be available after the event. The game told you this, the stickied event post tells you this, and the dozens of posts that have been made asking about them contain the answer
• Land Tokens -- You get them very rarely from daily challenges, and from the Golden Goose Realty. No, nobody knows when the GGR will be back, and if they did, they would have posted it by now
• While we're on the topic of GGR: GGR, God, Yahweh, Costmo, Lard Lad Donut Factory -- Nobody knows when they will be back, and if they did, they would've already posted it
• King Toot's -- You need to send Lisa to play the sax 3 times. Yes, I know you already did that. Do it again
• Friends disappeared -- Common glitch. Force close and reopen the game. That should bring them back. If that doesn't work, restart your device. If that doesn't work, reinstall the game
• How to farm donuts (KEM, RTT, Bloodmobile farming) -- There's a guide linked in the sidebar, not to mention the dozens of posts explaining how to do it
• Old event tasks -- The game lets you finish whatever part of the prize track you were on when the event ends. The only way to get rid of them is to finish them
• Yearbook rolls "Is this good?" -- If you want those characters and/or items in your town, it's a good roll
• Responding to a post with a new image post instead of responding in the comments -- I realize this one is due to reddit's janky image hosting, but all you have to do is upload your image to an image hosting service (There are a lot of free ones out there. I usually use imgur.) and post the link in the comments Edit: reddit has fixed this by adding image in comments capability
• Daily task totals -- There is a glitch causing the "go to" button to overlay part of the total needed to complete the "send _____ (multiple characters) to _____" daily tasks on some devices. The total isn't 1, it's 10 or 15. Just keep doing the task

______________________________

tl;dr: Please check the sub to see if your question has been answered before making a new post to ask. Thanks!

Despite this, 25% of the posts are these questions.

Sorry, I try to get to them as quickly as I can. Sometimes they're up for a few hours before I see them, or sometimes I may miss them completely, but I do try to remove them and point the posters to this

On a side note. Can't we have a something like a weekly/monthly "inspirational thread" where everyone can post their design of the same building and others can get inspiration.

But have you ever seen Moe spying on Midge from a burning bush?

Seriously, thanks for your work, this has been a very helpful sub.
