It’s pretty simple. As a teaching neighborhood we endeavor to teach young players (levels 10-48) the optimal strategies for playing Hay Day. To help accomplish this, we’ve created our neighborhood website. It has several sections, but starts with the New Member section. We ask all new members to read and follow this in their first week in the neighborhood. It teaches them how to trade, how to avoid XPs, which upgrade projects they should focus on at each level of the game, our rules for participating in the neighborhood derby, and how to join our Facebook group. This enables players to get up to speed quickly and adjust their strategies. Many new members approach Hay Day as they did Clash or Clans or Boom Beach and rush to “level up” as quickly as possible while neglecting other strategic facets of the game. As a teaching neighborhood we ask that members: “Stay active, participate, ask for help and help others, play fairly, and follow our strategies.”  This is repeated throughout our website.

You farm was rushed. This means that at your experience level you should have already completed several upgrades – the most obvious was that you had only cleared 1 of your 13 fishing areas (2 are cleared at the start). This is a key strategy to Hay Day. As explained on our website, the fishing area is needed to produce fillets, feathers, and lobsters. These are needed to satisfy your Townspeople. They also produce lots of other products that your Townspeople will request. Also, if you were active enough to be invited to participate in the neighborhood derby, many tasks require products from the fishing area. You would not be able to complete any of the Fishing Tasks and would struggle to complete many of the variations of Town Tasks and Combo Tasks. These are just a couple reasons why clearing your fishing areas are an important strategy of Hay Day. You also can collect up to 430 diamonds by filling your Fishing Book. These diamonds are most useful at lower levels like yours to add slots to your machines. The strategy, along with the reasoning, is laid out on our neighborhood website. Several Elders and Co-Leaders chatted with you in hopes of explaining it better. You were quite clear that you did not want to follow these strategies. That’s ok, it’s your choice, but then a teaching neighborhood like ours is not the place for you. This is why you were kicked so that we could make room for other students of the game.

As for the lying accusations, the New Member section, which you claimed to have read, discussed Derby Strategy. It lays out how many tasks can be completed for each league, which point values (depending on the Derby theme) are expected, and which tasks are best to select. Yet you seemed to not know any of this. It would have been simple enough to just say that you had not yet completed reading the New Member section and go back to complete it. Instead you were insistent that you had read it all, yet continued to ask questions as if you had not. A good, healthy neighborhood has a Leader and Co-Leaders who monitor the membership to remove players who might cause trouble, frustrate the neighborhood, are inactive, or just seem to be freeloaders. Either your previous neighborhood did not do this and you left because of the neighborhood was dead or unhelpful, or they did monitor the membership and kicked you out. Either way, it was clear that you were not a good fit for a teaching neighborhood.

Good luck in whichever neighborhood will have you. Always remember to “stay active, participate, ask for help and help others, play fairly, and follow their strategies” and you’ll do fine.
